About Espresso
Espresso is a sativa-dominant hybrid bred by Pacific NW Roots, who crossed Ghost Train Haze (specifically noted as OG Ghost Train Haze) with Koffee. The strain is named for its distinct coffee-forward flavor profile, though the experience is nuanced by additional aromatic layers. The scent profile is a complex blend of coffee and hashish, accented by sour citrus, spice, earthy herbs, and a subtle floral finish. Some users report notes of chocolate and a creamy mouthfeel that balance the sharper, citrus-heavy elements, reminiscent of espresso with a twist of lemon peel.
In terms of effects, the strain is frequently associated with an uplifting, energizing buzz. Users often report increased focus, giddy mood elevation, and a mild physical tingle, making it a common choice for daytime activities, social interaction, music, or creative tasks.
Plant characteristics
The flowers of Espresso are broad and mint green in color, contrasted by darker olive-toned leaves. The buds are covered in fine orange hairs and a dense, milky coating of trichomes. The plants are characterized by a tall stature, and the flowering period typically spans nine to ten weeks.
