What is the Mandarin Sunset strain?
Mandarin Sunset is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Mandarin Sunset is an indica-dominant hybrid strain bred by Ethos Genetics through crossing Herijuana with Orange Skunk. First grown in Colorado, USA, this strain was originally developed by Ethos Genetics and has become so beloved by consumers that it led to the creation of an entire line of Mandarin strains. The strain has won multiple concentrate awards due to its rich mandarin orange and skunk terpenes.
Mandarin Sunset is renowned for its sweet citrus aroma accompanied by notes of fuel and an earthy spiciness. The buds display vibrant green colors with deep purple highlights sprinkled throughout, adorned with reddish hairs and a dense layer of trichomes. The visual appeal features a palette that blends mint green and deep purple, accented by vivid red hairs with a high trichome density giving the buds a frosty appearance. The light and aromatic nature of this strain can be deceptive, as many users are unprepared for the potent effects that follow consumption.
