Strain Spotlight: Tropsanto
Updated September 2022
When you’re done reading our Tropsanto strain spotlight, you’ll learn:
- Why some prefer Tropsanto weed strain over all other cannabis strains
- How the strain’s lineage affects its inherent characteristics
Tropsanto has a lot to offer a variety of people. Cannabis consumers who prefer potent indicas will find what they’re looking for in this 70/30 indica-dominant hybrid. Despite that ratio, sativa fans should also experience enough to enjoy without being weighed by a super heavy in-da-couch feeling. Dabbers, too, may drool over the strain’s potency and terpene profile.
Even those who may not call themselves cannabis connoisseurs can see (and smell) how much the strain’s appearance and aroma enhance the overall experience. Still, whether you’re new to this strain or well-experienced, you should find our Tropsanto strain spotlight illuminating.
Tropsanto Strain Background
GMO and Tropicana Cookies are the parental strains of Tropsanto. This is an interesting marriage, as the two parents represent opposite sides of the hybrid spectrum; the former is 90/10 indica-dominant while the latter is 70/30 sativa-dominant. Additionally, these two strains are well-regarded for their potency. So, it shouldn’t be a surprise that Tropsanto also packs a punch.
With a THC level that caps out around 20%, an average of 1% to 2% CBD, and high concentrations of terpenes, Tropsanto’s potency is also borne out in its testing. This combination may lead consumers to feel the entourage effect. It’s believed that when cannabinoids and terpenes work together, they create an effect that’s greater than the sum of its chemical parts.
Specifically, Tropsanto’s terpene profile includes caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. So, these aromatic compounds not only offer a robust aroma but enhance the overall cannabis consumption experience.
Tropsanto Appearance, Aroma, and Flavor
Not all cannabis buds look great. Some strains, even if their physical effects are strong, may not have curb appeal.
Tropsanto, on the other hand, is gorgeous with vibrant colors and exquisite highlights. The buds almost resemble a grape with a deep color base ranging from olive green to purple. Throughout the darker overtones runs sleek strains of lime green. Slightly goldened white trichomes add a luscious frosting to the dense nug.
When you open the packaging, you should be hit almost immediately with an earthy, spicy aroma that’s reminiscent of cinnamon cookies. As you smoke the strain, the scent often becomes more intense with an additional roasted quality.
Tropsanto’s flavor takes on many of the elements of its aroma. However, included in that mix is enticingly sweet citrus. Some people also state they can taste bare hints of garlic, likely stemming from some inherited GMO Cookies characteristics.
What are Troposanto Side Effects?
While the taste, aroma, and visual appeal are enough to make Tropsanto a favorite by themselves, many cannabis consumers state it’s what occurs after you smoke it that sets it apart. While it is indica-dominant, the sativa-dominant side of its genetic ancestry gives it enough of an uplifting feeling that you never quite feel weighed down.
In fact, many consumers state the first thing they experience is an uplifting feeling that also relaxes and soothes the body. This is followed by a growing feeling of improved well-being. Negative thoughts may melt away until you’re left with measured calmness.
Depending on the person, this sense of relaxation may help ease you off into a restful sleep. Others may have an extended period of socialization before succumbing to the comforts of the couch. It’s not that you’re locked in, necessarily, but more of just a blissful understanding of how wonderful its fabric feels against your skin.
