Sunkissed
Overview
Sunkissed is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) created through crossing Platinum Tangie and Arise strains. This strain is designed as the perfect bud for a day spent outdoors, packing a glowing high with plenty of energy and motivation. The name combines the warm colors of tangerine that remind users of the sun with Arise, which implies it can be consumed upon waking. With THC levels averaging around 21-22%, this strain is considered ideal for experienced cannabis consumers.
Sunkissed buds display heart-shaped minty green nugs with golden undertones, sparse thin orange hairs, and tiny bright white crystal trichomes. The cured buds have medium density with a short conical shape and are light green and large with rusty pistils and internal trichomes. The strain offers a sweet and sour citrusy orange taste accented by spicy herbs and fresh flowery roses, with an aroma featuring flowery rose overtones accented by spicy herbs, sour citrus, and sugary oranges. Sunkissed is primarily sold on the west coast and has gained recognition for its unique flavor profile and energetic effects.
