What is the Pink Champagne strain?
Pink Champagne is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
Pink Champagne is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) created by renowned breeder Ken Estes through crossing Ken's Granddaddy Purple and Cherry Pie. It's a popular strain in the Bay area, with Ken Estes breeding it in his garden outside Hayward. Its nugs have a slight pink tinge to them with rich purple undertones and a coating of clear crystal trichomes that look almost pink in the right light. Leaves are a bright spring green and have a profusion of curly orange hairs -- which are actually pistils, intended to catch pollen from flowering male plants. Many phenotypes of this strain also exhibit bold streaks of purple. The strain represents a significant contribution to cannabis genetics by combining the most celebrated qualities of its parent strains into a unique blend offering well-balanced effects that lean towards relaxation and enjoyment, making it ideal for evening or nighttime use. Pink Champagne stands out for its luxurious aesthetic appearance and complex terpene profile, featuring dominant notes of sweet berries, grapes, and vanilla with subtle spicy undertones reminiscent of actual champagne.
