OG Kush: The Timeless Blueprint of Modern Cannabis

Often referred to as the “backbone” of West Coast cannabis, OG Kush is more than just a strain—it’s a cultural icon.¹ First popularized in California during the mid-90s, its mysterious origins (likely a cross between Chemdawg, Lemon Thai, and Hindu Kush) birthed a genetic profile that has since fathered countless legendary hybrids.

If you are looking for the gold standard of “gas,” you’ve found it.

• Best For: Sunset sessions, deep conversations, movie marathons, and relief from chronic aches.

• Taste: A sharp, spicy lime citrus on the inhale, followed by a dank, piney exhale that lingers on the palate.⁵
