Face Mints
Also known as: Face Off Mints, Mint Face Off, Animal Face #10
Overview
Face Mints, also known as "Face Off Mints," is a slightly indica dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing the classic Face Off OG X Kush Mints strains. The original breeder of Mint Face Off is Cresco Labs. Face Mints, bred from crossing Animal Face with Kush Mints #11, is a powerful indica that generates a strong cerebral sedation. The strain represents a collision of two powerful breeding lineages, with Face Off OG contributing the evergreen, gas-fueled terpene signature and the classic OG-style euphoric wallop, while Animal Mints brings a cookie-dough sweetness, vanilla frosting tones, and a cooling mint finish.
Face Mints buds have fat fluffy rounded olive green nugs with thin amber hairs and a coating of tiny sandy amber crystal trichomes. The strain is renowned for its complex flavor profile featuring a sweet and sour citrusy orange flavor with a spicy cinnamon and mint exhale. The aroma is of sharp mint and sour citrus with a heavy gassy overtone. Best known for its melting psychedelic high and super minty flavor, Face Mints is perfect for any indica lover who needs a high level of potency behind their medicine. That being said, the Face Mints high can quickly become overwhelming if you're not an experienced patient, with a THC level that hits about 22-29% or higher on average. The strain has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community for its potent effects and distinctive terpene profile.
