Nepal Annapurna

Nepal Annapurna is a pure sativa landrace originating from the slopes of Annapurna at more than 2000 metres altitude, which produces a classic and authentic wild Nepalese sativa phenotype. This P2 second generation Nepalese pure sativa has been cultivated for generations, adapting to poor soils, extreme weather, and fluctuating temperatures. The variety produces tall and lanky sativas with sticky, slender and flexible stems, which thrive in poor soils with very little care and attention, showing excellent resistance against mould, rain, wind, cold and strong temperature contrasts. Traditionally, locals rub their flowers with their bare hands from the second half of flowering onwards, so the hands get impregnated with resins, from which the famous Nepalese charas is produced. Its delicate and spongy flowers with small floral bracts and long pistils mature in moderate flowering times for a pure sativa (12-14 weeks), and acquire beautiful purple and pink colours at the end of flowering in low temperatures. The strain remains an important part of Nepalese cannabis culture and is considered one of the finest hashish varieties in the world due to its quality effects and terpene profile.
