Cabernet Sav – $6.75/gram– AAAA – Hybrid

Cabernet sav is an evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with unknown parentage due to breeder secrecy. Although it tends to be evenly balanced, this rare bud can be indica or sativa dominant depending on breeder practices. Because Cabernet sav is only offered in a pre-roll form from a single dispensary, it’s difficult to determine what exactly it looks like. This bud gets its name and unique flavor and aroma from the dispensary’s practice of aging it in vats of high quality Cabernet wine. This process infuses the buds with sweet and spicy flavors that are characteristic of a fine dry wine and give it a sickly sweet aroma almost like champagne. However, Cabernet sav does tend to retain a slight pungency that can be detected as you exhale and break the nugs apart. The effects are those of a classic hybrid, with both mind and body highs that aren’t too overwhelming. It starts with a slight head rush that lifts your spirits and leaves you feeling happy and at ease. You’ll have some creative inspiration that’ll get you moving on tasks at hand, although you might feel too lazy to really accomplish anything because of a warming body buzz. However, you won’t be sleepy or weighed down at all on this bud, just relaxed. These effects paired with its THC level that is said to be very high make Cabernet sav great for treating conditions such as chronic pain, headaches or migraines, and chronic stress.
