British Columbia – the land of sweeping views, crisp minty air, and some of the better organic strains in Canada. Thanks to 5 Star Organic there is another delicious and extremely potent strain to add to that legacy. Black Tuna is an evenly balanced strain comprised of Lamb’s Bread and Herojuana. This popular Northern strain may be hard to find outside of the region, but if you happen to get your hands on some, don’t be surprised by their whimsical packaging, as this bud sometimes comes in a sealed tuna can!
Though the THC of this strain isn’t particularly high, you’ll find that doesn’t affect much about its appeal. The smell, however, might. Though the flavors are rich in spice and tartness, the aromas lean toward funky and almost putrid. The spiciness of the smoke tends to balance that out, though. Rest assured, these sage and purple colored buds are well worth the try.
The strength of this bud is largely described as narcotic, and because of this, it is not recommended for beginners and even some intermediate smokers. The high begins relatively easy going, then quickly dives into a hard and loopy state. It will be nearly impossible to keep your eyes open, or even steady for that matter, after just a few minutes. This cerebral rush ebbs and flows through the high that can sometimes last for hours.
If you’re wondering why this strain is named after a fish but doesn’t smell like one, you aren’t alone. The name actually comes from the Black Tuna Gang, a well-known group of smugglers that brought large amounts of marijuana to the US from Colombia. Not only does this bud hit hard, but it comes with a historic backstory as well.
Underwater, a school of tuna is one of the most impressive sights divers can see.
But for most people, it is seeing fresh tuna sashimi on their plates that make it even look more impressive.
Not everyone may know the specific tuna they are eating, but there are different kinds.
Most common is the yellowfin tuna, and then there is the bluefin tuna sold at insane prices.
Unfortunately, we do not know much about this Black Tuna.
If there is one thing we are sure of, then it is that it cannot be found underwater.
In as much as sashimi may not be for everyone due to preference, Black Tuna is not for beginners due to its potency.
Black Tuna is a rare breed, figuratively and literally.
No, they do not come from the ocean, but came into existence after a breeder crossed Herojuana and Lamb’s Bread.
At least, that is the impression the breeder, 5 Star Organics, gave.
Have you ever heard of a cannabis strain that is sold in tuna cans? Apparently, that is what the breeder, 5 Star Organics, did. So, regardless how one feels about the marketing gimmick, the fact remains that this is one potent strain.
Like most cannabis, Black Tuna strain delivers a mental hit at the onset, causing one to feel uplifted. The turn in mood is a good thing, as one starts to feel happier, or even elated. Unlike some others, especially the heavy Sativa strains, the cerebral high is gentler rather than intense.
As the physical body high starts to take effect, this is when users feel their body relaxing. In other words, the cerebral high sets the tone, and the body manifests the wonderful effects of Black Tuna.
For some people, the absence of the sudden intense hit makes it easy for them to underestimate the potency of this hybrid. Keep in mind, if one smokes too much, the intensity of its effects could start to feel like narcotic, as well as keep the user glued to the bed or couch.
Go to a fish market and smell the air. Of course, it is not pleasant. The good news is that our Black Tuna strain smells nothing like that. This hybrid is pungent and skunky, but theearthy tone sort of makes it more tolerable.
It is safe to say that the Black Tuna is not going to win any awards in best tasting cannabis. But while its odor carries over to its taste, it also has a lingering herbal and woody taste. Simply, its taste should appeal to most consumers.
So, as mentioned in the previous section, there are some who may feel elevated anxiety levels with the use of Black Tuna. With that, stress levels drop. Consequently, those who are dealing with depression should find this weed beneficial.
But that is not what Black Tuna is sought after for.
Of course, that is not such a bad thing. In fact, insomniacs would find it especially useful.
Finally, as the effects start to subside, there are users who start to feel hungry.
