My friend recently ran into weed that smells VERY STRONGLY of mint... I don't even smell the regular weed smell at all, it's just mint.

He smoked some and the smoke coming off of it smells like mint/something i can't describe as well... it's a weird mint too, not a regular minty smell... he said it tasted like that as well..

Me, being unsure, didn't smoke it.. I've never ran across something that smells that strong of something else.. I've had blueberry before, and it tasted a little and smelled a little like blueberry, but not this strong... i can't even smell the regular weed smell at all..

Anyways, has anyone run into this sort of weed? What's up with it? My only concern is it might have been sprayed with something..

Maybe someone crushed up some altoids? I dunno, I've personally never come across any, but there are some odd strains of bud out there....how much did he smoke, how ripped did he get?

Some people smoke the mint plant. Perhaps it was mixed with regular herb? [shrugs]

Or maybe it was soaked in mouthwash. I refuse to believe that marijuana could be bred to smell like something completely different than it is.

When I used to keep my bagggie in old mint containers the weed always smelled like mints. I can't remember it tasting the mints, but that could be a possibility.

The two most probable things that come to mind are:
A) The weed was stored in an altoids container
or
B) It was flavored with mint oil. I have flavored weed with cinnamon oil and vanilla, don't see why it couldn't be done with mint. Makes for a harsher smoke though...

I have an altoids container, and I just smelled it.

It smells different from the weed.
Both are mint, but the weed is more .. i can't describe it..

Which is what worried me that it had been sprayed or something..

wow i was just going to start a thread about this. the other day i bought a dime bag and it smelled completely like mint, not even a little like weed. it was weird but i didnt think much of it. i rolled up about half a nik and got preety high. it didnt smell like altoids though, it smelled more like mouthwash. go ahead and smoke it man, it was preety good.

obviously we have had mint smelling weed recently for the first time. if we knew it was just the weed, we wouldnt post threads asking questions about it.

Alright, all the responses (from here and elsewhere) have said it's just normal weed.

So i just smoked some. It tastes just like regular weed, nothing added.. and im stoned now, regular stone tho... not super messed or anything.

So i guess it's just really minty smelling weed
