Tangerine Dream

Description

Appearance

This strain produces medium to large-sized buds that are dense and resin-heavy. The nugs are a lush forest green with bursts of burnt orange pistils and a light dusting of frosty trichomes. The overall look is both vibrant and sticky, hinting at its potent effects.

Aroma (Terpene Profile)

As its name suggests, Tangerine Dream hits the nose with a wave of citrus zest—especially orange and tangerine notes—backed by earthy and slightly herbal undertones. Dominant terpenes include limonene (citrusy and mood-boosting), myrcene (relaxing), and pinene (alertness), making this a strain that smells as energizing as it feels.

Effects

Tangerine Dream starts with a cerebral buzz that elevates your mood and sharpens focus. As the high settles in, it brings a gentle body relaxation that doesn’t sedate. It’s the kind of high that lets you stay productive or enjoy creative pursuits, without mental fog or couchlock. Users often describe it as uplifting, calming, and mentally clarifying.

Flavors

The flavor of Tangerine Dream mirrors its aroma—zesty citrus, with rich tangerine notes on the inhale and a slightly sweet, earthy aftertaste on the exhale. It’s smooth and refreshing, making it an enjoyable smoke or vape for flavor chasers.

Genetics / Origin

Tangerine Dream is a cross between G13, Afghani, and Neville’s A5 Haze. This trio gives it a balanced profile that leans toward sativa in effects while offering a touch of indica-style physical calm.

THC and CBD Content

Tangerine Dream typically contains 18%–25% THC, making it fairly potent without being overwhelming. CBD levels are usually low (under 1%), but the effects are well-rounded thanks to its rich terpene and cannabinoid profile.

Medical Benefits

Medically, this strain is often used for stress, depression, fatigue, and mild aches. Its uplifting nature can help with mood-related conditions, while the physical relaxation may assist with muscle tension and headaches. It’s a good daytime option for those needing symptom relief without heavy sedation.

Who’s It For

Tangerine Dream is perfect for users seeking a functional high—ideal for daytime use, socializing, or staying creative. It’s a great pick for those who want relief from stress or low energy without sacrificing mental clarity. Flavor enthusiasts and fans of citrus-forward strains will especially love this one.
