K1

K1 is a hybrid strain with unconfirmed origins; while it is frequently associated with a genetic combination of Durban Poison and LA Kush, these parentage claims remain speculative. The name is widely believed to be a nod to the famed climbing peak located in northern Pakistan. The strain is characterized by a sharp, pungent aromatic profile dominated by notes of chemical cleaner, earth, herbs, and wood. On the palate, these translate into flavors of pine, chemical solvent, and herbal undertones. Users have reported that the experience typically begins with an uplifting mental shift that gradually transitions into a state of euphoria. In terms of industry recognition, K1 secured 3rd place in the Best Hash category at the 2014 Denver Cannabis Cup.
