## Genetics and origin

**Mendocino Purple Kush** brings together two purple legends from Northern California:

- **Mendocino Purple** — from the famous Mendocino County, known for a cerebral, activating effect and a complex fruit aroma with grape and berry notes. A parent of the Purple Urkle line.

- **Purple Kush** — a classic Kush indica known for a deep, sedating body effect, a spicy aroma and intense violet colouring.

The result: a 60% indica hybrid that combines the cerebral character of Mendocino Purple with the deep body relaxation of Purple Kush — a surprisingly versatile effect profile. Part of the **American Strains collection**.

## Mendocino Purple Kush effect

What sets **Mendocino Purple Kush** apart from classic Kush strains: the Mendocino Purple share brings a surprisingly cerebral, activating character — despite the 60% indica dominance:

- **Cerebral start** — the Mendocino Purple heritage: mental stimulation, energy, creative drive

- **Progressive body relaxation** — the Purple Kush genetics take over: deep muscle relaxation

- **Long-lasting** — 20–23% THC delivers an intense, long-lasting experience

- **Evening and night** — increasingly sedating as the effect progresses

## Aroma and terpene profile

The aroma profile is unique in the purple family: fresh morning dew as a base — a cool, damp note reminiscent of early morning — combined with sweet grape and berry notes and an earthy Kush background. Among growers the **Mendocino strain** (or **Mendocino Kush**) is prized for exactly these **Purple Kush terpenes** — myrcene, linalool and caryophyllene.

Terpene | Typical impressions | Contribution to the profile

**Myrcene** | Earthy, fruity, musky | A fruity base, supports the indica body effect

**Linalool** | Floral, fresh, slightly sweet | The morning-dew note, calming and anxiety-relieving

**Caryophyllene** | Spicy, peppery, warm | The spicy Kush character, anti-inflammatory
