Pineapple Express

The Origin of Pineapple Express Weed Strain

Pineapple Express Weed Strain is a sativa-dominant hybrid derived from Trainwreck and Hawaiian. Trainwreck boasts genes from Mexico, Thailand, and Afghanistan, while Hawaiian is a tropical beauty used to produce the powerful Amnesia Haze. Concurrently, these assortments created a well-rounded plant that pulses many packs.

Surprisingly, the name Pineapple Express originates from a meteorological phenomenon followed along the Pacific coast of North America. It’s an atmospheric river that fascinates steam and induces serious rains or snowfall. Regardless, when you hear the name of this cannabis strain, you are sure to think of the action humor starring Seth Rogen and James Franco. Which came first, the strain or the movie? Seth Rogen, who also co-wrote the script of Pineapple Express, claims that “There was no Pineapple Express weed before the movie”. And while this may or may not be true, the film helped the cannabis variety rise to the top.

Terpenes in Pineapple Express Weed Strain

Excessively aromatic, Pineapple Express possesses arrays of terpenes that are liable for its aroma, flavor, and—to some degree—effects. The most prominent terms are:

• Myrcene: As the most productive terpene in most cannabis strains, high concentrations of myrcene are indeed seen in Pineapple Express. Excluding your famous herb, myrcene can also be found in hops, giving the beer its peppery, spicy notes. It gives marijuana an herbal, earthy, and clove-like smell.
• Caryophyllene: With a spicy flavor and smell, this terpene is found in black pepper and different herbs. It varies from other terpenes in that it combines straight to the CB2 receptor.
• Pinene: This terpene is largely responsible for the aroma of pine trees and for the strong aroma of Pineapple Express. It’s also present in rosemary, sage, and Skunk cannabis strains, among other plants.

Aromas and Flavors of Pineapple Express Strain

Now that we know which terpenes are mostly generative in Pineapple Express, we can have a look at their smells and flavors. The complex mixture includes woody, spicy notes accompanied by pine and a specific pineapple flavor on the exhale. Despite the existence of the pineapple, smoking this strain is not a very sweet venture, but instead citrusy and earthy, with a tropical twist.

This flavor profile can work very well in edibles, complementing sweet treats like cookies or brownies. Infuse flowers into oil or butter, and you are ready to test in the kitchen.
