The Acapulco Gold is one of the most well-known and a fan favorite strain. The strain originated in the Acapulco, Mexico region with its orange hairs giving the bud its golden nugget hue. It has been compared to dining at a five star restaurant, so it is no wonder it carries a reputation for being one of the best cannabis strains ever created. The bud produces a burnt toffee scent that lingers on break up. Its high THC content at around 24% has long lasting effects, but it won't keep you on the couch as it’s a straight sativa. It is also becoming more difficult to find as more growers move indoors.
