Afghan Kush

Originating from the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan, specifically the Amu Darya River Valley, Afghan Kush is a landrace cultivar shaped by generations of traditional cultivation and selection for resin production. Its profile is defined by earthy, sour, and herbal notes, accented by pine, peppery spice, and subtle flashes of fruit and citrus. Consumers typically report a deeply relaxing experience that transitions into euphoria and sedation. Beyond its use as a standalone cultivar, Afghan Kush is a primary genetic contributor to the global cannabis gene pool, having provided the compact structure, broad leaves, dense flowers, and resinous traits found in many contemporary indica and Kush-family hybrids.
