Black Tuna

Black Tuna Strain Information

Introducing Black Tuna – a balanced Canadian hybrid souche originally created by the infamous Black Tuna Gang in the 1970s. It takes its unique name from the cans used to smuggle Colombian cannabis into the United States during this time, even though it tastes nothing like fish! Its parent strains – Lamb’s Bread and Herijuana – make it a potent yet evenly balanced strain that is perfect for a wide range of medical conditions.

Appearance, Flavour, and Effects

Black Tuna is known for its stunning trichome-covered flowers. These buds are a rich sage green with dark green patches and hints of purple. The smoke carries a spicy, pungent aroma that is balanced out by a funky sweetness that is sure to be a hit with consumers. The effects of this strain are long-lasting and powerful, starting with an uplifting, euphoric sensation before taking a sedative turn. It can be quite potent, so it may not be the best choice for beginners or even some intermediate cannabis users. The effects can last for hours and include increased hunger, making it excellent for stimulating appetite.

Black Tuna is also beloved for its creative marketing approach. You can still find some products packaged in the signature tuna cans!
