Our go-to strain for days when you just want to be wrapped in a cozy cloud of relaxation, this rare 100 pure indica pairs well with deep breathing and a growing sense of calm.
Strain Type: Indica
A 100 pure indica hybrid, Zercules is guaranteed to bring the bliss. As you toke, an unmistakable sense of relaxation will wash over your body. The spicy-sweet citrus notes that accompany this consumption experience remind us of sipping a cup of calming herbal tea.
It’s the strain we reach for when we want an indica experience with no messing around. Relaxing, sedating, and utterly delightful, it’s a cannabis purist’s delight.
Lineage
A powerhouse strain created by crossing the potent Zkittlez and Goliath, Zercules takes the relaxing indica powers of both its ancestors and kicks it into the stratosphere.
Zkittlez contributes those juicy, sweet flavors, and mind-melting power, while Goliath goes big with calming, relaxing effects. Together, the combination quickly turns sleepy, with Zurcules creating an almost instant experience of pure bliss.
How does Zurcules make you feel?
You might be surprised by how gently this powerful strain makes its presence known. The ride starts off subtle, but the relaxed sensation of calm and ease washing through your body grows with every breath.
Aches and pains melt away, leaving your physical body thoroughly relaxed as your mind wanders blissfully through the universe. An irresistible sense of couch lock will wash through you, leaving you rubber-legged and slack-jawed in the most delightful way.
Make sure to keep some snacks on hand as you settle into your mental vacation. Zercules tends to give some users an appetite.
THC Potency
With THC levels in the 16% range, Zercules hits the powerful but not overwhelming sweet spot that many indica fans regard as the holy grail.
Expect to feel deeply soothed, sedated, and just high enough. This strain keeps those “too high” feelings of overwhelm at bay while still delivering a powerfully relaxing experience.
Strain Aromas
With a smell that reminds us of standing in a lemon grove above Athens while a thunderstorm rolls in, Hercules is spicy, zesty and bright. Breathe deep and you’ll notice notes of sweet herbs that pair perfectly with that sour citrus punch.
Strain Flavor
With its sour, spicy, earthy, and deeply interesting flavor profile, Zercules is perfectly suited to bold pallets. Inhale, and you’ll notice citrus notes reminiscent of candied lemon peels and bergamot. Exhale and it’s all warm spices, cinnamon, clove, and Szechuan peppercorn.
Terpenes
Linalool
Bringing a sweet sage aroma to Zercules’ herbal bouquet, linalool is also responsible for that undeniable couch lock. Think of it as the terpene equivalent of a spa day.
Beta-Caryophyllene
Zercules’ peppery bite comes from beta-caryophyllene, which adds a subtle kick and uplifting energetic presence to this strain’s relaxing powers.
Limonene
Completing Zercules’ light uplift is limonene, the citrusy terpene that also gives the strain its lemonade sweet flavor.
