Lume does a great job of keeping its cannabis prices low. We would be willing to pay another $2 per gram, though, for weed that was moist enough to roll into a joint.
With many Lume strains delivering weak effects that take a long time to kick in, we were pleased by the rapid onset of effects MAC provided. We were high within less than 5 minutes, and the effects lasted 1 hour. There were no side effects, and the aftereffects were clear and balanced.
Aside from the large, wasteful plastic packaging, we found our gram of Lume MAC weed to be adequately labeled and effectively preserved with a nitrogen seal. This container would have been more appropriate for an eighth, though.
There is no terpene profile indicated on the Lume website. Our palate indicates this is a myrcene-dominant cultivar, though. There’s a pleasant and slightly layered aroma with notes of chemical sweetness followed by an earthy, woody taste. Near the end of the pipe there was a hint of fruit like grapes.
We consumed this strain using a glass pipe with approximately 0.5G ground flower per session. Consider consuming your gram in two sessions spaced over a morning or afternoon.
Despite its dry texture, MAC is nonetheless one of the tastiest $8 grams Lume has to offer. It’s probably the best Lume strain to try if you’re a newbie to cannabis in Michigan.
Most cannabis experts consider MAC to be an evenly balanced hybrid strain, but some commentators contend that this cultivar leans toward the indica side of the spectrum. Whatever the case may be, rely on MAC to deliver pleasantly balanced effects that capture the best of what both indica and sativa genetics have to offer.
The headquarters of Lume Cannabis is in Troy, Michigan. This brand operates more than two dozen retail locations throughout the Great Lakes State, making Lume a household name in Michigan whether you smoke weed or not.
Lume Cannabis is owned by Michigan entrepreneur Doug Hellyar. It is the largest privately owned dispensary chain in Michigan, and Lume is soon slated to celebrate the opening of its 30th location. Lume employs more than 1,000 people.

Together, the Best Dosage team has decades of experience smoking cannabis flower. Back from the days when “Legalize It” still seemed a distant pipe dream, we’ve looked on with delight as weed prohibition has gone up in smoke. Nowadays, we’ve sampled legal THC and CBD flower in California, Washington, Illinois, Oregon, and beyond, and we pay close attention to the feedback we receive from average shoppers at dispensaries and online reviewers alike. Cannabis flower is like a second language to us at BestDosage — to the point we can now tell good weed from bad at a glance. Our team has the experience to know whether that dank is worthy of its top-shelf position or if it's just weedy grass in disguise.
