What is Mandarin Sunset?
An indica dominant hybrid strain that is bred by Ethos Genetics, crossing Orange Skunk and Herijuana. The result of this cross produces a rich orange and fruity profile that is reminiscent of a freshly picked mandarin orange. The buds consist of light green leaves filled with striking orange-red hairs that are intertwined with milky white trichomes deep within. This strain is known for its indica properties, specifically used as a heavy relaxant, perfect for chronic muscle pains and spasms. The high also gives a nice uplifted feel to the user, which gradually builds up into a steady and mellow couch-lock.
Who should buy it?
Those who are looking for a smooth indica buzz that will provide exceptional relaxation while giving the user an uplifted energetic feel. The effects of this Mandarin Sunset will almost be felt immediately, like a wave of relaxation that hits straight to the body, wiping away any stresses or pains.
Day Time or Night Time smoke?
This can be enjoyed both day and night! With its smooth onset of relaxation paired with its functionality makes it a nice daytime choice for activities such as a walk at the park. However, it can also be used as a night time cap if used in decent amounts, as the wave of relaxation can easily sweep you off your feet into a deep couch-locked state.

Now this is not to say that this cultivar was a unpleasant smoke or poor medicine by any means, but I personally feel an AAAA- rating would have served a more appropriate approach given the muted terpene profile and effects. I only say this because it is supposed to be a feature cultivar on a lineup with an “exotic” theme; the bar was set pretty high here and fresh off the heels of Oreoz, I couldn’t help myself from thinking this one came up a little short. Retroactively thinking back to their MAC1, Gelato and LA Cake Pop also helps to support my opinion here as those cultivars truly did meet my exotic expectations.
What comes through via aromatics is much more noticeable when the flower is broken down; preferably fresh in your grinder. You’re met with pleasant, creamy and nutty notes that are complimented with bitter orange zest and a slight musk / funk twist at the end. Definitely strong enough to surpass the AAA threshold, and is still noticeable in my opinion. A few really positive aspects here are the cure and the burn; with the flower carrying a perfect humidity to crack and snap apart, blowing trichome dust everywhere while still gripping to your fingers. Easy exhale with no reported harshness.
While tame, you’re met with a very uplifting buzz that starts first in your mood with clean, good vibes that slowly build into a more robust body high. While it is labeled an indica, I wasn’t getting too much of the narcotic, sedative effects unless I moved into higher doses. So ironically this strain has become a solid morning smoke that’s been adopted into my routine as a way to get my mind right for the day without completely sending myself off the rails. This one would be recommended to more novice users (gf loved it), but still very much has its place for heavier users – just maybe at a more transport rating for those who smoke often.
