| Half ounce | 14 g | $90 | $6.43 |
| Ounce | 28 g | $160 | $5.71 |
The per-gram cost falls by roughly a third between the eighth and the ounce, which is why most repeat buyers step up to the larger weights. The ounce also clears our $150 free-shipping threshold on its own.
Appearance and aroma
This is where El Jefe earns the premium. The buds are large, dense and genuinely sticky — enough that a grinder is easier than fingers — in deep green that shades toward blue, with bright orange pistils running through. Trichome coverage is heavy, which is what puts it at the top of our grading scale.

What to expect
At 70/30 indica-dominant, El Jefe leans heavy without being completely sedating. It is an evening strain for most people rather than a daytime one. As with any AAAA+ flower, less is needed than you might expect — the density and trichome coverage are the whole point of the grade.
