Aurora B is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and pine flavor profile.
Aurora B is a potent indica-dominant cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its relaxing properties and distinctive appearance.

Visually, Aurora B plants typically display dense, compact buds with a deep green coloration often accented by purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are heavily coated in crystalline trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance that contributes to the strain's name. The aroma profile combines earthy, pine-like notes with subtle sweet undertones, while the flavor experience often includes woody and herbal characteristics with a smooth smoke.
Aurora B is particularly noted for its balanced effects that provide both physical relaxation and mental calmness without excessive sedation. The strain has maintained popularity among indica enthusiasts for decades due to its consistent performance and reliable effects. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, Aurora B remains a respected choice for those seeking traditional indica characteristics with moderate potency.
