Rafael, also called Raphael, is a sativa-dominant hybrid with a lean toward Sativa in its 70/30 split. Named for the archangel associated with healing, this cultivar is often sought for its medicinal potential. The flowers are large and dense, with a brownish hue accented by a generous dusting of orange pistils that give the buds a striking, earthy glow.
The aroma blends earthiness with fruity sweetness, evoking a tropical fruit salad with peachy undertones. The flavor mirrors this profile, delivering a fruity, sweet, tropical palate that lingers pleasantly on the palate from inhalation to exhale.
Medicinally, Rafael is prized for providing relief from pain and stress while maintaining clarity and control thanks to its very low THC content and prominent CBD levels. The result is a calming, focused experience that avoids couch-lock, making it suitable for patients dealing with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and inflammation.
