Animal Mint Cake

Genetics: Thin Mint Cookies x Animal Mintz

Sativa/Indica Scale: 30/70 (Indica-Dominant)

Five Key Words: Minty, Gassy, Sedating, Heavy, Pain-Relief

Cannabinoid Profile: Total THC: 27.66%, Total CBD: 0.13%, Total Cannabinoids: 32.64%

Terpene Profile (Total 5.56%): trans-Nerolidol (0.89%), β-Caryophyllene (0.88%), δ-Limonene (0.89%)

Lab Data Reality & Ratio Justification:

The 30/70 heavily indica-dominant rating is justified by one of the most sedative terpene profiles possible. The presence of trans-Nerolidol is the key differentiator; it is a potent sedative terpene clinically studied for its sleep-promoting and relaxing properties. This is backed powerfully by the physical relaxation and anti-inflammatory action of β-Caryophyllene. The δ-Limonene is present in equal measure but is completely overpowered in its effect by the other, more dominant sedative terpenes. The extremely high total terpene percentage (5.56%) means these effects are pronounced, complex, and long-lasting. This is a terpene profile that commands a heavy body effect.

The Entourage Effect & Genetic Expression:

This is a medicinal powerhouse bred for maximum therapeutic impact. Inheriting the gas and mint from Thin Mint Cookies and the heavy, stoney effects from Animal Mintz, this strain is a precision tool. The entourage effect is a shutdown sequence for the nervous system. Nerolidol promotes deep sleep, Caryophyllene addresses physical pain and inflammation, and the high THC ensures the message is received loud and clear. It's a multi-targeted approach to shutting down pain and insomnia.

Therapeutic Uses:

Primary: Severe Insomnia, Neuropathic Pain, Inflammation

Secondary: Appetite Loss, Muscle Spasms, PTSD

Mechanism: The terpene profile, particularly Nerolidol, has demonstrated sedative and anti-parasitic properties, while Caryophyllene targets CB2 receptors for systemic inflammation and pain. This combination is ideal for treatment-resistant sleep issues and chronic pain conditions.

For Consumers:

Smoking Experience & Summary: The smoke is thick, expansive, and carries a sharp, cooling mint and gassy flavor. The high is a creeper—it starts subtly with a brief cerebral spark before a heavy, stupefying stone blankets both mind and body, making complex thought or movement difficult. This is a guaranteed "couch-lock" and one of the most effective strains in the lineup for forcing rest and combating stubborn pain. The loud, pungent aroma is a prelude to its power.
