Durban Poison Strain

A South African landrace sativa strain named after the coastal city of Durban, the Durban Poison strain has a very unique flavor profile that is spicy, sweet and almost minty, with noted energizing and uplifting effects. The Durban Poison strain, when grown at its best, has higher concentrations of naturally occurring THCV, a cannabinoid that may have energizing effects. THCV also is believed to suppress appetite so Durban Poison is often referred to as the anti-munchies weed strain. This unique cannabinoid profile and the energizing effects of Durban Poison strain are why we’re dubbing it one of the best strains of 2019.

Purple Punch Strain

Rounding out the top five best strains of 2019 is the Purple Punch strain. This indica dominant weed strain derived by crossing the Larry OG strain (indica) and the Granddaddy Purple strain (hybrid). With a strong sweet berry flavor, this weed strain is more suitable for an evening session, with noted soothing and relaxing effects, bringing on a decadent full body high. We smoked the Purple Punch strain all year and we have no plans of stopping, that’s why we named Purple Punch strain one of the best weed strains of 2019.
