Getting lit on the go with Select's Blue Dream.

IN REVIEW: Perfect for an adventure at any time of day, Select’s Blue Dream vape cart offers a creative, uplifted high with a calm finish. Its berry-forward flavor and floral aroma will simply take your mind on a journey without slowing you down. So whether you’re on vacation exploring a new city or trying to get some work done, this 84% THC hybrid concentrate delivers the best mixture of what indicas and sativas can offer in one convenient product.

Whenever I travel, one of the first things that come to mind is, how am I going to bring weed with me—and maybe that’s just me, but it matters. So when I was planning my trip abroad to Barcelona, I naturally started planning the best way to get lit while I was across the pond. 

Even though cannabis is perfectly legal in Spain, I always feel nervous traveling with flower. You just never know what TSA agent is going to be in a bad mood and decide to ruin your trip. That’s why I decided that edibles and vapes were likely going to be my best bet.

So as I packed my bag with little mints, cookies, and other edible treats, it was time to decide which vape cart would carry me through my travels. I shuffled through my weed collection until I spotted a Blue Dream cartridge from Select.

I love Blue Dream because I feel like it offers a little something for everyone.

Blue Dream used to be one of my all-time favorite strains to smoke, but like many popular cannabis cultivars, it seemed to fall off the map for a while. Perhaps it flew too high and had to fall back down like Icarus when he got too close to the sun, only to make its triumphant return with Select.

I love Blue Dream because I feel like it offers a little something for everyone. It boosts your mood without a heavy crash, relaxes you without locking you into the couch, and allows you to function as you go about your day. In other words, it’s the perfect anytime, anywhere strain. And now, it was going straight into my suitcase alongside my edible delights.

When I finally landed in Barcelona, my body was buzzing with excitement. Despite the soul-crushing, 18-hour travel day, I was ready to get out and do some exploring. So after taking a shower, I turned to my suitcase to get everything I needed for my first day in a new city. I packed all my cannabis goodies at the top of my bag for easy access so it only took a moment before I found my vape pen.

It was already fully charged (because I’m a prepared stoner), so I took my first puff right then and there. The taste was sweet with notes of blueberry and soothing lavender, like a fancy, organic hard candy. It is juicy, complex, and exciting. I sipped on it a few more times just to enjoy the summery flavor. And within moments, I began to feel a happy curiosity coursing through my brain—it was time for an adventure.

Feeling stimulated by the vape, everything felt so fresh and inspiring.

My boyfriend and I stepped out onto the cobbled streets and a gust of chilly spring air blew past us, a gentle rain starting to come down. Unshaken by the weather, I buttoned my jacket, clutched my umbrella, and my boyfriend and I began to wander the endless maze of streets.

Everywhere I looked there was something unfamiliar, intriguing, or striking. Feeling stimulated by the vape, everything felt so fresh and inspiring. Whether it was a group of fancy European pigeons eating fresh baguette crumbs, tantalizing desserts lining a bakery window, the clack of heeled boots on the hard streets, or the intricate architecture around every corner, I felt like I was in a dreamland. My imagination was running wild as we slowly strolled around town.

I let my boyfriend lead me through the winding until we stopped at a breathtaking plaza near our hotel. I watched the sea of trench coats, puffer jackets, and sharp wool pea coats pass me by, noticing that my LA denim jacket instantly made me stand out—but I didn’t care.

In fact, I didn’t have a care in the world. My high allowed me to feel both mentally present and physically relaxed without turning me into jello. Even though I was jet-lagged, slightly disoriented, and in a completely new environment, I felt oddly at ease. Just grateful for the moment at hand. And grateful that I was able to bring some Blue Dream on my journey.
