Hindu Kush is now on the menu, as of today. :) Recon is pretty devastating, too.

Regarding the price of the Hindu Kush and why it is so much more than the price at Club Media- there is a simple explanation.

The H.K. is from a unique and jealously guarded mother plant and very few people are given access to the clones.

The folk at Club Media have a direct connection the people who selected the mother many years ago and thus are able to offer it at a much better price than we can.

As always with our menu, price is dictated by quality and I am very happy to have such a well grown example of such a rare and lovely land race weed on our menu.

Hope you'll enjoy it!

Nel Z answers most inquiries, weeding out the odd chaff (no pun intended).
If I may add, unless a shop has it's own grow network, they pretty much are at the mercy of the distribution system.
To paraphrase Nel, stoners in the growing business don't play well together (secret genetics, secret special organic soil, etc...).
Mutual respect perhaps, but don't fuck with my genetics... :lol:

Went here for the first time in November after hearing people rave about it! Nice little coffeeshop, and friendliest bt I've ever met, really nice guy who had plenty of time to show what was on the menu. The selection on offer sounded amazing, I tried the exodus cheese, grapefruit Krush & strawberry cough. Nothing really stood out as amazing for me, and couldn't really compare it to say voyagers. The smoke was ok, but the welcome we got and service will make up for it only being ok, and ill definitely be trying this place again

The grapefruit krush was the stand out weed of my trip in October and quite possibly my favourite weed I've smoked yet in Amsterdam. I was gutted when it wasnt on the menu when I was back in December.

First time I went, they were real low on something I was after (can't remember what it was now) but instead of giving me the chaff just to make a quick buck (as Barneys would do, later that very day), the BT told me he'd have more stock in half an hour or so and to either just chill or come back in a bit.

Stand up act, that.

I met my three friends in Utopia one morning in December, they had never been to the shop before but I have visited but never stayed for a smoke, we decided it would be a convenient meet and it is close to discount bike rental over the road (best higher bikes at cheap prices). They were already there so the plan had come together nicely.

Again it was the female bud tender who served me, as before she was very nice, a pleasure to do business with. I bought the Lemon Skunk €12.5 and a cup of tea, wow this stuff really does have the lemon traits. I rolled a joint of Malika Hash I had brought with me, I intended to put some white widow in the spliff instead of tobbaco but accidentally used the Lemon. The taste of the lemon was so strong that it over powered the hash, a bit of a shame to be honest but it was my own mistake oh well.

The coffeshop is a nice place to pass some time, light, clean, tidy and not overly busy considering its location. When we finished I asked the bud tender to have a look at the hashs they had on offer, the Moroccan looked average, she told me it was fairly old so not at it's best (I like the honesty displayed), the two types of ice hash looked amazing though, well worth a try. I had every intention to go back and grab some, but unfortunately never got round to it. Maybe I can find some time to pop back in over the next few months.

When we smoked the lemon skunk later on in the trip, again the taste was lemon perfection a very nice smoke, with a nice smile along high to boot. If we got a batch of this back at home then I would be more than happy to smoke it for a change.

Another positive recommendation for Utopia, keep up the good work
