Highland Oaxacan Gold Strain Overview
Highland Oaxacan Gold is a landrace sativa strain that originates from the mountainous regions of Oaxaca, Mexico. This heritage strain represents one of the classic Mexican sativas that gained prominence during the 1960s and 1970s. The strain is characterized by its tall, stretchy growth pattern typical of equatorial sativas, with long, thin leaves and an extended flowering period. Highland Oaxacan Gold produces golden-colored buds with a distinctive spicy, earthy aroma that reflects its highland Mexican terroir. As a pure sativa landrace, it offers an energetic, cerebral high that has made it valued among collectors and breeders seeking authentic genetics. The strain's resistance to mold and pests, developed through generations of natural selection in its native environment, makes it particularly hardy, though it requires patience due to its lengthy flowering cycle.
