ahhh nice. Its on my list of things to get when I see it now. Thia sticks originally came from Thialand and they had some certain really good local strain.. but the Thia government burned down all the fields and the strain was lost. Not the method of putting buds on a stick. And yes word on the street is some of the original thiasticks did come with opium on the stick to hold the nugs onto it, which would have been interesting to experience and really good tasting I'm sure.
