Also known as: Tangie Express, Tangerine Express Auto
Tangerine Express Strain Overview
Tangerine Express is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its distinctive citrus aroma and uplifting effects. The strain was developed by crossing the classic California Orange with an unknown sativa strain, though some sources suggest it may involve genetics from Skunk #1 or other citrus-forward varieties. This combination resulted in a strain that captures the bright, tangy essence of tangerines while delivering the energetic effects characteristic of quality sativas.
The strain's appearance features dense, conical buds with a bright green color often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The trichome coverage is typically moderate to heavy, giving the buds a frosty appearance. Tangerine Express plants tend to have a relatively compact structure for a sativa-dominant variety, making them suitable for various growing environments. The strain's most notable feature is its powerful citrus aroma, which closely resembles fresh tangerines with subtle earthy undertones.
Tangerine Express first gained recognition in the early 2010s and has since become a favorite among consumers seeking daytime relief without heavy sedation. The strain's balanced effects and appealing flavor profile have made it popular in both medical and recreational markets. Breeders have continued to refine the genetics, resulting in several phenotypes that maintain the core characteristics while offering slight variations in growth patterns and terpene profiles.
