L’Acapulco Gold is a popular old variety. It has been compared to dining in a 3-star restaurant. This variety comes from the Acapulco region of Mexico. Its long orange hair makes it look like a golden nugget, with golden, green and brown highlights in its resin. A scent of heated caramel emanates from its heads when broken.
Acapulco Gold has the reputation of being one of the best cannabis strains ever conceived, and is less and less cultivated. It typically contains 23% of THC, making it a good choice for moderate pain relief.
The high of this sativa is known for being cerebral and energetic, and will put you in a good mood. Some may find Acapulco Gold a little too potent, partly because of its body effects, which can be very relaxing.
Medical patients appreciate the THC levels in this variety, ideal for combating depression and boosting mood.
