Leafly Nation, did you know weed can smell and taste like coconuts?
If you’ve just fallen out of a tree and are coming up to speed on the latest in cannabis—come along with us. Here’s a tour of the best coconut weed strains and products perfuming the zeitgeist.
Trending ‘coconut’ strains 🥥
Break out the Venn Diagram—weed can have nutty, creamy, sweet, vanilla, and even spicy tropical notes all in one. The first wave was the Horchata strain—often attributed to Compound Genetics, as well as Wyeast Genetics. Now we have Coconut Horchata, a Dubz Garden brand “classic staple.” It’s available as flower and in a collaboration with Sacramento pre-roll makers Sluggers. Around since at least 2022, reviewer The Fire Scale states, “the smoke could not be any more creamy throughout the entire process.”
Coconut Horchata is on sale across California, including at Purple Star MD in SF.
The great thing about creating new strains from a banger pool of parents is that they get to exist in the context of all the strains in which they live, but they are also unburdened by what has been. Coconut Milk comes from a heavy legacy, Cereal Milk x (Jungle Cake x GMO). It should be a sweet dessert strain that’s very smelly, or ‘loud.’ A legacy strain might share the same name. Spotted in California, New Mexico, and Massachusetts.
Want to fall out of the coconut tree and onto a cake? Wedding Cake and Ice Cream Cake are two top strains in the US. It’s no surprise we see more ‘Cake’ offspring out there, including one Coconut Cake that we see sold by Cru brand cannabis in California. Cru has been working on Ice Cream Cake, and Jungle Cake, so Coconut Cake fits right in. Coconut Cake can be a blend, or a strain. For example, Hawaii breeder 808 Genetics has a Wedding Cake x Heirloom Thai they call Coconut Cake. They say it smells like “coconut, vanilla, and gas.”
“Coconut” is also now an artificial flavoring some companies are using on joints and vapes in certain states.
