About Kevorkian
Kevorkian holds a near-legendary status in cannabis history, with roots tracing back to the 1990s. Its emergence coincided with the high-profile legal trials of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, from whom the strain derives its various aliases, including Jack Kevorkin, Doc Kevorkian, and Dr. Jack Kevorkian. While its exact origins remain subject to message board speculation, the prevailing theory is that Kevorkian is an early selection of the renowned NL5 x Haze hybrid associated with Shantibaba. Given that the NL5 x Haze cross became a foundational breeding tool during that era, this lineage is frequently cited as the source of Kevorkian’s potency. Due to its age and the informal nature of its early distribution, there is a possibility that some iterations of the strain may possess different or novel genetics. Today, the strain is considered quite rare.
Users report that Kevorkian provides a buzzy, energized high that eventually transitions into a more sedate wave of physical relaxation. This suggests a balanced or potentially sativa-leaning profile, though historic accounts vary.
