Punch Breath is an exotic Indica dominant hybrid cultivar created by combining the cultivars Mendo Breath X Purple Punch cultivars. If you’re looking for an entire body high with an excellent flavour, Punch Breath certainly delivers. The sensations come on fast and hard, smashing into your mind and body with a frenzied body tingly feeling. You’ll feel your day’s stresses start to lift as your sore muscles begin to relax, and you settle further and further into that couch-lock feeling. This tingle quickly turns into a sense of calm, leaving you feeling slightly sedated as you fall deeper and deeper into blissful serenity. With these sensations and the cultivar’s average THC level of 16-19%, Punch Breath is often chosen to help people to treat conditions such as chronic pain, nausea and appetite loss, chronic stress, depression, insomnia and cramps or muscle spasms. The bud has a sweet and fruity grape candy flavour with hints of fresh bubblegum. The aroma is just as delicious, with earthy overtones accented by fresh sweet berries and tangy bubblegum. Punch Breath buds have super dense grape-shaped minty green nugs with lots of orange furry thin hairs and a sparkling coating of tiny, sugary white crystal trichomes.

All medical information is not always going to be 100% for everyone. I am not a doctor, and the truth is Cannabis is unique for everyone due to its wide range of cultivars, and the chemical makeup of each cultivar can slightly change from crop to crop. Everyone experiences Cannabis very differently due to our individual and unique endocannabinoid system within our bodies. When trying a new cultivar, my best advice is to try a little bit to see how it will affect you personally. Start Low. Go Slow. Always remember Cannabis is different for everyone, so please use it responsibly.
