Mambo MG
Also known as: Mardi Gras Mambo
What is the Mambo MG strain?
Mambo MG is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 38.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Mambo MG is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created by One Leg Up Cooperative through crossing Platinum Romulan with New Orleans Purple. The strain's origins trace back to the founder of One Leg Up Cooperative, who was raised in New Orleans and moved to California with seeds from a purple strain that appeared during the Mardi Gras carnival season. After crossing this New Orleans Purple with Platinum Romulan, the resulting offspring's terpene profile remarkably smelled just like New Orleans during Mardi Gras or Bourbon Street on a hot summer day, leading to its name "Mardi Gras Mambo" or "Mambo MG."
The strain produces visually striking buds with fat, spade-shaped olive green nugs adorned with thin orange hairs and a generous coating of tiny dark purple-tinted white crystal trichomes. Known for its exceptionally high potency with THC levels ranging from 28-38%, Mambo MG is considered a strain not to be underestimated by even experienced users. The strain exhibits a complex flavor and aroma profile characterized by spicy, musky, and skunky notes, with peppery citrus flavors and a lightly dank, earthy exhale. The aroma features sharply spicy black pepper with pronounced dank skunkiness and sour citrus that intensifies when combusted.
