A prized African landrace from the shores of Lake Malawi, traditionally cured in banana-leaf cobs. Long-lasting, dreamy-yet-clear sativa energy.
Malawi Gold is a sativa cannabis strain, typically testing at 14-22% THC. Consumers most often describe its effects as energetic, euphoric, and creative. On the palate it tends toward sweet and earthy notes, which tracks with its dominant terpenes: myrcene and caryophyllene. Among the people who log what they are using it for, Malawi Gold comes up most often around fatigue, depression, and stress, though that reflects what consumers report rather than any tested medical effect. The most commonly reported downsides are dry mouth, dry eyes, and paranoia, and a lower dose is the usual way to avoid them.
