Shishkaberry

Nicknamed “Kish,” Shishkaberry traces to DJ Short Blueberry and an Afghani line. Some records add Purple Thai and Thai. Our record lists 15% THC and 0.75% CBD, a light profile by current standards, and the terpene panel is the most linalool-heavy of any in this batch: linalool at 2.48%, alpha-pinene at 0.83%, beta-myrcene at 0.73% and alpha-humulene at 0.39%.

Heavy linalool is usually associated with a floral, lavender-like smell, though flavor tags here are fruity, sweet and earthy, and outside descriptions mention berry and purple-tinged buds. Effect tags are hungry, focused, calm, happy and sleepy, with outside reviewers describing a cheerful start that settles into a lazy finish. Dry eyes and dry mouth are the side effects on file.

The mix of low THC and a soothing profile makes it an approachable option for cautious consumers, and the hungry tag suggests keeping snacks close. Plan for it as an evening strain, since the sleepy end of the effect list tends to win out over time.
