Cannabis Strains with International Roots
If you would rather avoid the crowds, here are a few strains with international roots that pair naturally with a World Cup watch party at home.
The first World Cup in North America since 1994 opened with Mexico vs South Africa, which also happens to be a great matchup for cannabis history.
Acapulco Gold — Mexico
The Acapulco sun and Pacific Ocean breeze created this uplifting strain with opening ceremony energy.
This 1970s icon originated in the Guerrero Mountains in Mexico and got its name because of its golden appearance.
Available through Jeeter as infused prerolls.
Durban Poison — South Africa
Pure sativa named after the port city of Durban for its sweet earthiness.
When Durban seeds from South Africa made it to Amsterdam in the 1970s, this local legend became a worldwide sativa.
Best for staying motivated through Extra Time. Available in packs of prerolls through Hepworth.
Alaskan Thunder Fuck — USA
This energetic strain will keep you grounded during suspenseful penalty shots by the home team.
This potent plant is said to have originated in Alaska’s Matanuska-Susitna Valley between rugged mountains and glacier-fed rivers. Its unique flavor eventually spread throughout the cannabis culture.
Ayrloom carries it as an All-In-One vape.
NYC Diesel — The Final
The World Cup Final lands at MetLife Stadium on July 19th as the first final ever in the New York area. NYC Diesel is for boosting your mood when nobody is scoring.
This famous sativa was developed by a New York breeder who wanted to craft something as memorable as the city.
Available as flower from Mini Mart, infused prerolls from Presidential, or a vape from Sluggers.
