Rockstar – AA+ – $70/Oz

History

Taking second place in a High Times Cannabis Cup hardly denotes a second rate strain, RockStar took second place in the 2012 hybrid Category.  Rockstar, not to be confused with its cousin “Rockstar OG” strains, is a indica dominant hybrid (60% indica/40% sativa) strain created through a cross of the popular Rock Bud X Sensi Star strains. 

Aroma and Flavour

RockStar has an intense pungent kush-like smell with an undertone that is sweet and spicy, which becomes a little earthy as the buds dry out. While there are cannabis users who love its odor, there are also a few others who might be turned off. Like how it smells, it tastes similar but more with a skunky taste with mild hints of citrus. Regardless of how you feel about its aroma, you might be surprised that moment you taste the RockStar. Chances are that you will find this exotic blend tasteful and a delight.

Effect

The Rockstar high is characterized by strong-hitting effects powered by a 14-22% average THC level without the sedation that typically comes with an indica parent. The Rockstar high starts with a cerebral head rush a few minutes after toking that leaves you uplifted and extremely happy with active tendencies and motivation. As this powerful head high builds, you’ll slowly feel a creeping body buzz wash over you that leaves you completely relaxed in every single muscle, leaving you helplessly couch-locked and in a state of pure bliss. Despite these powerful muscle-relaxing effects, Rockstar surprisingly won’t leave you sedated in the least bit.

Medical Use

Being indica-dominant and having a moderate THC level that stays under 22%, Rockstar is not known to overwhelm users. This may be helpful for medical users suffering from anxiety and depression. Its dominant terpenes are Caryophyllene, Humulene, and Bisabolol which are all believed to have remarkable effects on inflammation throughout the body, particularly in the intestines. Despite being reportedly effective for pain management, this strain is not known to leave the user completely sedated or couch-locked. Rockstar can be the perfect companion to a mellow evening at home alone or with friends. This strain has been reported to lighten the mood and decrease anxiety which can help in social situations. This soothing and relaxing effect may also help in dealing with muscle spasms and menstrual cramps. Users report reductions in inflammation and a mild euphoric head rush from using Rockstar.
