What is the Raspberry Kush strain?

Raspberry Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.

Raspberry Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (75% indica, 25% sativa) with disputed origins but well-documented popularity in West Coast dispensaries. This strain derives its genetics from Raspberry Cough and Cheese Kush strains, though some sources suggest connections to Hindu Kush genetics from Afghanistan and Pakistan. The strain emerged in West Coast dispensaries during the late 2000s and early 2010s, riding a wave of berry-forward Kush hybrids that appealed to both connoisseurs and casual buyers. The buds display an attractive appearance with dark green coloration with hints of purple, literally frosted with trichomes and crystals, featuring incredibly dense nugs with brown stigmas interlaced throughout. The name reflects its unmistakable red-berry bouquet layered over classic Kush funk, a sensory signature that made it easy for budtenders to recommend.
