Coterie – Purple Zushi

 Minimalist graphic logo for Coterie’s Purple Zushi strain. The design features two cartoon-style sushi rolls with colorful fillings of red, green, and yellow against a light grey background. The word “COTERIE” appears vertically along the left side, and “PURPLE ZUSHI” is written below the sushi in a bold, playful black font, creating a clean, modern look with a subtle nod to the strain’s name.

Coterie – Purple Zushi

🌿 Strain: Purple Zushi
Producer: Coterie
Genetics: Zkittlez × Kush Mints #6
THC / Terps: 31.6% THC / 2.74% Terpenes

Coterie’s Purple Zushi presents itself with top-shelf visuals, frosty, colourful, and dense, but falls short in aroma and flavour. While the hype around the name is loud, this cut shows more strength than terp depth, delivering a heavy-handed experience that hits quickly but doesn’t linger on the palate.

Close-up macro image of a Purple Zushi cannabis nug from Coterie. The bud appears dense and well-trimmed, showing a mix of light green and purple hues with bright orange pistils and a heavy layer of frosty trichomes. Captured against a dark background, the photo highlights the nug’s tight structure and resin-coated surface.

Scored Breakdown
👁️ Bag Appeal 9/10
Excellent presentation with frosty, dense buds showing deep purple tones and bright orange pistils. Trichomes glisten under light, giving off that premium look.

👃 Aroma 6/10
Subtle and mild. The nose leans herbal with faint gas and fruit notes, but lacks the intensity expected from Zkittlez lineage.

👅 Flavor 5/10
Light gas and faint sweetness carry through the joint but fade quickly. Flavourr doesn’t hold or translate strongly from the bag.

🔥 Burn 9/10
Clean, even burn with a resin ring forming within the first few pulls. White-grey ash throughout, smooth combustion and good cure.

💨 Smoke Quality / Mouthfeel 7/10
Light but smooth smoke. Easy on the lungs, not harsh, though lacking depth or character.

💥 Effects 8/10
Potent and fast-hitting. Delivers a strong head buzz with a clear, euphoric indica lean, relaxing yet functional. High THC content shows up quickly.

💸 Value 7/10
Strong potency and bag appeal, but the muted terps and light flavour pull it back. Feels more like a hype cut than a full-spectrum craft experience.

Final Score & Thoughts
🧠 Final Score 7.3 / 10

Coterie’s Purple Zushi hits with strength and stunning visuals but falls short on terp delivery. The cross of Zkittlez × Kush Mints #6 promises more flavour than this batch brings, though the burn, resin production, and potency earn respect. A clean smoke with a serious kick, just not a terp chaser’s dream.

Review Notes & Context
Sample conditions: Smoked via joint
Testing protocol: Evaluated across dry pull, bag aroma, flavour translation, halfway mark, and full finish. Resin ring, ash colour, and mouthfeel observed.
Context: Sampled to compare with other Zushi cuts in Canada. While potency and structure impress, terp expression is subdued.
