It should be noted that stronger cannabinoids like THC-C8 are better enjoyed in a blend. I don't recommend vaping them raw other than once or twice for curiosities sake.

Viscosity
THC-C8 has a mild viscosity. It can be pushed out of a syringe at room temperature, but not easily.
My Opinion
THC-C8 is an intensely stoney and hazy cannabinoid, rivaled only in its ability to lower my eyes and glue me in one spot by HHC-P and HHCPo. The come-up begins with my eyes being forcefully squinted and a feeling of sedation creeping in, which builds into a more and more intense high. The signature of THC-C8 is seemingly its tactile nature as the headband effect is very pronounced and even got so intense on a high dose that it began to feel uncomfortable. It's also common that my arms get heavy and have a "fuzzy" feeling like TV static. The sedation with THC-C8 seems to be quite strong, especially when eaten - I had to drink a coffee in order to stay awake the first time I took it for review. The sedation stuck around longer than any of the other effects.
THC-C8 is quite impressive when it comes to it's strength - in my opinion, it's stronger than everything but the phorols, and even then it might be stronger than THC-P. You certainly need to be careful with dosing on this cannabinoid, especially when it comes to edibles.
It takes a while for THC-C8 to fully take hold but once it does it has a fairly long duration, leaving me still at a 4/10 high with 25mg vaped 6 hours prior.
In the flavor department it falls short but not unusably so - it tastes very chemical-y with notes of rubber and hay. It is seemingly not harsh at all, feeling more like an acetate on the throat than anything else.
Other notes:
N/A
Its JWH-138, Also in Europe they sell it as THC-JD. Dont make that fact bother you though, its not like most JWH analogues! Its weaker and much closer to weed than lets say JWH-018. I would agree with everything Turkey wrote, except I think it does have quite a bit of stimulation too.
