Acapulco Gold is one of the best known and most loved strains on the planet. It is a powerful sativa that usually packs quite a punch with its 23-24% THC. It is from the area around Acapulco Mexico and gets the gold part of its name from its tightly packed golden buds with golden-orange hairs. Fans report that it is energizing and uplifting and will give you a fun head-high and relaxation, without being overly sedative. Its aroma is strong and pleasant with a complexity that connoisseurs will love to debate. One may detect notes of fruit, sweetness, earthiness and even burnt toffee.
