Riddler

Riddler has no single pedigree: different breeders have released their own versions under the name. That is why the lineage in our record sprawls, listing Hindu Kush, Master Kush and Sour Diesel relatives that likely describe one version rather than the whole family. Reports place its arrival on West Coast shelves in the mid-to-late 2010s.

Our entry is a hybrid at 16.62% THC with no CBD, a single reading that sits below the 20–22% typical figure quoted elsewhere. Terpenes on file are limonene, beta-myrcene, beta-caryophyllene and alpha-humulene, with no percentages. Flavor tags are fruity, sweet and spicy, and the effects listed are tingly, focused and calm.

Aroma depends on the cut: some jars lean lemon-lime and fuel, others cracked pepper and cedar, others herbal and floral. That spread is the real lesson. Two Riddler purchases can smell nothing alike, so read the label or the lab sheet for the terpene lead before assuming a mood.

A lower THC reading makes it a reasonable option for people who want to stay clear-headed.
