Peanut Butter Cup is an indica-dominant hybrid, roughly 70% Indica and 30% Sativa, created by crossing Mendo Breath with Do-Si-Dos. Its lineage lends a calming, body-centered high with a hint of uplift, making it a popular choice for unwinding after a long day.
The buds present as fluffy yet dense spade-shaped nugs with purple undertones, bright orange hairs, and a frosty coat of trichomes. On the palate, the flavor mirrors its name with a sweet and nutty kushy profile, while the aroma leans earthy and pungent with herbal and spicy notes and a bright sour edge.
The onset is gradual, creeping into mind and body to settle into deep relaxation that can ease aches and promote sleep. This strain lends a sedative state well suited for an evening in front of a favorite show. Medically, it is used for appetite loss or nausea, chronic pain, mood swings, depression, and insomnia, with THC typically ranging from 14 to 19 percent.
