Tangerine Dream is a well-balanced hybrid that was created by crossing G13, Afghani (both indicas), and Neville’s A5 Haze (sativa). THC levels in this incredibly strong strain average approximately 22% but can reach a mind-boggling 25%. However, its CBD content is substantially lower, with most samples reaching only 0.10%. This strong strain is a legendary invention of the world-famous breeders at Amsterdam’s Barney’s Farm. It rose to fame after winning first place in the 2010 High Times Cannabis Cup. This powerful strain has an almost equal indica/sativa split, the majority of the time being a 60/40 sativa leaning bud.
ABOUT TANGERINE DREAM

As a result, Tangerine Dream is a popular strain among those who use marijuana for pain management. It can also provide alleviation to folks who are stressed or anxious. It’s effective sensation of focus may also be advantageous for those dealing with attention disorders.
The rich citrus aroma is where this strain truly lives up to it’s in-bag appeal; the preserved flowers emit an orange scent with a pleasant earthiness mixed in. Many customers report a peppery, clove-like undertone that complements the orange top notes. Breaking up the sticky buds produces a stronger herbal funk, which was most likely passed down through Haze genetics. The smoke is smooth and has a chemical-like, diesel flavour. When inhaled, the smoke has a distinct orange zest flavour, as well as a slight tangy flavor that remains on the tongue long after first sparking up.
