The answer is it depends. Everyone tries to push strains as far as they can go meaning pumping as much nutrients and light as possible to get maximum THC. The sad part is a lot of great strains that smoke well get culled. I have a forbidden lemon glue with an amazing terpene profile...but it's low potency so we don't sell it anymore.
It's not fair to lay the blame on the potency wars. The flower you smoked in the 00s was selected based on its yield per acre, its strength against the elements, and whether the strain would finish growing before the rain comes.
If you want to enjoy the flavor your best bet is using concentrates. Tthe concentrate guys are purely focused on flavor. They cultivate strains specifically for their terpene profile and are focused on maintaining that profile for the consumer.
