Malawi Gold is a legendary landrace strain that has grown naturally in Malawi for generations. Its morphology remains consistent, uniform, and adaptable to its native climate. Malawi Gold grows tall plants with long, resin-caked buds that express a low calyx-to-leaf ratio. This strain offers an enticing floral aroma with latent fragrances of herbs and earth. If you are lucky enough to encounter this mythic bud, cherish its potent and invigorating effects, as you are consuming one of the surviving ancestors of modern cannabis.

Who knew about this hidden landrace tropical African gem of a healing herb? This is some potent ganja, complex fruit terpene notes, a tickling throat hit. A strong psychoactive in the mind, even body feels stoned, It is labeled as a sativa, it is uplifting and energetic however there is a body floating and heaviness effect. I feel like I have pain relief and IBS relief. Senses are enhanced.

I'm not a sativa guy, but I like this one. Just bought a 1/8 on an impulse buy, and I'm diggin' it. Buds are denser than I was expecting and also have a lovely amount of orange hairs. The high is very light and mellow to me compared to strains I'm usually blazing. It definitely has an energetic/upbeat element to the high. This would be a good strain for those who are prone to anxiety & paranoia. The high is definitely a slow and calm come up.

Sativa : Malawi Gold Source : local dealer in Cape Town Amount : 3 grams Look : long buds , medium density , light brown and golden . Smell : tropical and citrus . Inhalation: smooth Mood : buzzing , clear headed , energetic , talkative elevated , social , psychedelic , long lasting . Good for : daytime ,out and about , fatigue , depression , creating , organising . . Personal note : this mythical strain as they call it reminds you of somethings that you flare familiar with but don’t know exactly what is it . An old place you’ve been to , a song that takes you somewhere. You rarely get such a clear sativa with such a high psychedelic effect . It’s wonderful like the sunrise.
