What is the Purple Tangie strain?
Purple Tangie is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Purple Tangie is typically a cross between Tangie and an undisclosed Purple phenotype, resulting in a sativa-dominant strain that combines the best of both lineages: the zesty, orange-forward flavor of Tangie with the deep coloration and floral complexity of purple strains. In a show of its quality, Purple Tangie took 1st place in the Best Medical Sativa Concentrate category at the 2016 High Times Cannabis Cup in Los Angeles. This energizing cultivar gained traction in Southern California and quickly spread through West Coast dispensaries thanks to its distinctive terpene profile and potent sativa effects. Easy to grow in both greenhouse and indoor environments, Purple Tangie is especially popular with cultivators who value its strong yields, bright color, and vigorous growth cycle.
Purple Tangie buds are a visual treat that are dense, frosty, and streaked with purple. Bright orange pistils contrast beautifully against the dark violet hues of the calyxes. Trichome coverage is heavy, giving the buds a sparkly, resinous look. The purple coloration deepens when grown in cooler conditions, making this strain a standout in any lineup. Purple Tangie typically tests between 19–25% THC, offering a potent but manageable high for most consumers. Purple Tangie generally has low CBD content, often testing below 1%. It's primarily known for its THC-driven effects and flavorful terpene profile. It's been a longtime favorite among creative professionals and early risers who appreciate a cerebral, clear-headed high.
