About Garlic Breath

Garlic Breath is an indica-leaning hybrid that crosses GMO with Mendo Breath. It is known for a savory flavor that stands apart from fruity and dessert strains, and it has gained a strong following in legal markets across the US and Canada.

The aroma is pungent and savory, with heavy garlic, earthy spice and a faint sweet undertone. Buds are usually dense and frosty, often showing purple tones beneath a thick layer of trichomes. Caryophyllene often brings the spicy, savory edge, myrcene can deepen the earthy funk, and limonene may add a subtle bright note.

People often describe Garlic Breath as relaxed, sleepy and happy, with a calm mood and a heavy body feel that builds over time. It is commonly chosen for late evenings or nights at home. THC usually ranges from 22% to 28%, and CBD is typically under 1%.

Garlic Breath tends to suit experienced consumers who enjoy savory strains and strong effects. Start low, go slow, and check the lab results on the package before you buy. Use WhereLeaf to find Garlic Breath at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
