White Widow (AA+)

Aroma-wise, White Widow has a citrusy and peppery smell, with a lemony aftertaste that many find appealing. This makes it an ideal strain for outdoor activities, such as beach outings or leisurely walks, thanks to its uplifting yet soothing effects.

“White Widow” is a renowned hybrid strain that has been a staple in the cannabis community since the early ’90s. It enjoys widespread popularity around the globe, particularly in Amsterdam’s coffee shops, and its fame has been boosted by mentions in the television show “Weeds” and various rap songs. White Widow is known for its balanced 60:40 sativa/indica ratio, a cross between a Brazil Sativa and a South Indian Indica, delivering a high that combines cognitive stimulation with a relaxing undertone.

Patients often choose White Widow when they need a strain that helps them unwind and relax without losing mental clarity, making it an excellent choice for managing depression, stress, pain, and PTSD. One of the most distinctive features of White Widow is its appearance; the buds are covered in white trichomes, giving it a “white” look and its name. However, first-time users should be cautious, as its sweet, sugary smoke is deceivingly light at first but expands significantly, which might lead to coughing.
