Pistachio

Pistachio is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by the breeders at Humboldt Seed Company in California. This strain is a genetic cross of the sativa-dominant Fortune Cookies with the little-known P-61 strain, also created in Humboldt county. Pistachio was selected as a particularly frosty strain during Humboldt Seed Company's 2019 phenotype hunt, and users often remark on the buds' generous coating of sticky pale amber trichomes. Users go nuts for the Pistachio strain's pungent diesel and gas scent, complimenting a subtle creamy fruit and pistachio flavor profile when smoked.

Prominent linalool, limonene, and myrcene terpenes give this strain these unique scents and flavors. In addition to the impressive dusting of trichomes, these spade-shaped buds also boast deep green and amber-tinted leaves with long red pistils, further increasing its bag appeal. Users say Pistachio provides immediate effects, filling the mind with hazy euphoria after the first toke, leaving them energized and giggly. The strain also increases sociability, and may bring more reserved users out of their shells at parties.
