Swiss Tsunami, or Swiss-Tsu, is an incredibly powerful Sativa-dominant strain of cannabis. Bred for its CBD potency, this strain tests for THC levels below 0.5% quite frequently. Swiss Tsunami is a product of an unknown breeder crossbreeding Swiss Gold and Sour Tsunami. Swiss Tsunami is popular amongst CBD patients, who know it to provide powerful relief without the psychoactive effects of THC.

Although most patients will find Swiss Tsunami in the form of distillate, edibles, or tinctures, Swiss Tsunami bud does exist on the market. Swiss Tsunami buds are often lanky, lumpy, and uneven in shape, which is a characteristic of Sativa-dominant hybrids. This, however, is not a reflection on its quality. Expect Swiss Tsunami buds to be olive or forest green, with hints of dark purple. The buds are often covered in a carpet of fuzzy orange hairs and a coat of tiny translucent trichomes.

Out of the packaging, Swiss Tsunami is an incredibly stinky, pungent flower. If you don’t want your place to smell like skunk, you should probably take this session outdoors. Like most stinky buds, expect the air around you to be filled with the stench of good cannabis as soon as you start grinding it up. Those who choose to smoke this bud rather than vaping a distillate or taking an edible are likely to be left coughing, as the pungent taste becomes an incredibly skunky taste with a citrus aftertaste. Don’t be taken by surprise with this strain, its flavor is incredibly stinky and pungent, and will leave even the most experienced users coughing and possibly gagging on its taste.

If you’re lucky enough to find Swiss Tsunami flower on the legal market, you’re in for a treat. Although it lacks THC, meaning you’re not really going to be settling in for a session like you would with other buds, Swiss Tsunami is definitely worth trying at least once! Users report a deep sense of calm that washes over you like a tsunami after inhaling, despite the incredibly low THC levels of this strain.

Like most CBD-heavy strains of cannabis, Swiss Tsunami can be used to treat a vast array of ailments at any time of the day. Cannabis patients fond of Swiss Tsunami have noted it is great at alleviating chronic pain and stress without the added “heady” high of most Sativa buds grown for THC. Although some users like the feeling and distractions brought on by psychoactive highs, other users prefer their medicine to work subtly, the way that CBD does. This makes Swiss Tsunami also great for treating ailments that lend themselves to passive relief, like loss of appetite, nausea, anxiety, and depression.
