Winning first place at the 2017 High Times’ SoCal Cannabis Cup for Best Hybrid Flower is no small task, and El Perro was more than deserving of the honors. A collaboration between three farms, Bert Baccarat, Firerock Farms, and Los Angeles Kush, the group developed this evenly-balanced strain by crossing True OG and a Nag Champa Cut of Stardawg.

Clocking in at a steady 20% THC level and about 1% CBD, this strain known as The Dog will please you until the cows come home. Super fat nugs boast a rich amber undertone alongside their neon base color and a thick coating of golden trichomes works to complete the look. El Perro brings a burst of fruit flavor to your senses as sweet grape and citrus mixed with a bit of savory herbs dances around you.

Like a good hybrid strain should, El Perro brings you a dose of inspiration before sending you off to dreamland. Users will immediately find a euphoric sense of self that seems to build and build with no end. You may be slightly unfocused here, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying everything life has to offer you. Just when you think you can’t get any happier, this strain’s bodily effects will kick in with a sense of relaxation that’s deep and comforting. Before long, you’ll be curled up on the couch for a nap, or depending on the time of day, a good night of sleep.

This perfectly crafted strain is a great choice for medical patients who need relief from both mental and physical ailments. Issues of stress and depression are melted away by El Perro’s uplifting nature, and instances of bodily pain tend to go by the wayside as her sedative effects kick in. For some, El Perro brings about a case of the munchies before leading you to sleep, so certain health conditions that involve a lack of appetite might be greatly helped with a few tokes of this award-winning bud.

Although we can’t say for certain, it seems as if this strain was crafted with a one time only type of intention. It doesn’t seem to be available for sale in most major cities across the nation, and any talk of purchasing seeds online is kept completely hush hush. As is common with certain collaborations, there’s a good chance that you’ll never actually be able to grow this strain yourself.

Think of El Perro as man’s best friend - the kind of strain you can count on to help you get through just about anything. With a delicious set of flavors and the exact set of effects you’d look for from an expertly crafted hybrid, this bud may soon become your new favorite, that is if you get the chance to actually try it.
