// From the Episode
Concept introduced to Hash Church by Nick Ziegler from Yakima Chief Hops. Theory that Skittles cultivar's universal popularity may be because its terpene profile has almost no blind spots across the population — nearly everyone can perceive it fully. Relates to why different people rate the same hash differently. Marshall Lagour (sensory scientist, also from Yakima Chief Hops) specializes in SOPs for proper sensory evaluation.
