Allepo 1138

Allepo 1138 is a sativa cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.

Allepo 1138 is a rare sativa-dominant cannabis strain named after the ancient Syrian city of Aleppo, with '1138' likely referring to a specific phenotype or breeding project number. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it appears to be a landrace or landrace-derived variety from the Middle Eastern region, potentially preserved and developed by breeders interested in preserving heirloom genetics. Its connection to the historic city suggests it may represent a traditional cannabis variety from that geographic area, though documentation about its specific breeding history is limited.

The strain is characterized by its sativa-leaning effects and distinctive appearance. Plants typically develop tall, slender structures with elongated, spear-shaped buds that are often light to medium green in color with occasional orange or rust-colored pistils. The buds are usually airy and less dense than many modern hybrids, which is typical of landrace sativas. The aroma profile reflects its Middle Eastern heritage, often described as having earthy, spicy, and herbal notes with subtle citrus undertones.

Allepo 1138 is considered a relatively rare strain in commercial cannabis markets, primarily of interest to connoisseurs and preservationists seeking traditional genetics. Its rarity means that consistent information about its characteristics can be difficult to verify, and different sources may provide varying descriptions. The strain represents an example of regional cannabis biodiversity and the importance of preserving landrace varieties before they are lost to hybridization and changing cultivation practices.
