About Strawberry Cough
Strawberry Cough is a beloved sativa famous for its unmistakable strawberry flavor and the thick, expansive smoke that reliably induces coughing even in experienced consumers — hence the name. Developed by renowned cultivator Kyle Kushman, Strawberry Cough reportedly originated from a clone that was growing in a strawberry field, which some believe contributed to its unique terpene profile. Whether that origin story is fact or folklore, the result is undeniable: Strawberry Cough produces one of the most authentic fruit flavors in cannabis. The aroma is sweet and berry-forward, with ripe strawberries dominating over earthy and subtle spicy undertones. The flavor is remarkably faithful, delivering sweet strawberry taste that persists from inhalation through exhale. Effects are uplifting and anxiety-reducing, making Strawberry Cough one of the most recommended sativas for consumers who normally find sativas too stimulating. The high is happy, social, and creatively stimulating without the racy, anxious edge that some sativas produce. THC levels range from 17-23%. Medicinally, Strawberry Cough is particularly valued for social anxiety and stress, as its unique combination of euphoria and calming properties can help ease social discomfort.
