The Scoop
like I’m blowing smoke up your ass, but its the truth. Acapulco Gold is as good as it gets.
More About This Strain
Once upon a time this storied sativa landrace was an import only. Today, these seeds, their clones and several of their offspring have fallen into the
hands of American and European breeders, causing the name to spread much further than the plant it was originally used to describe. This isn’t to say
that the modern versions are bad, the Acapulco gold sold at Barney’s farm is excellent, only that they are engineered cross breeds, Frankensteins
compared to the potent purity of the old stuff.
The best thing to come out of Mexico since Quesadillas!
History
Acapulco Gold made an incredibly official entrance into our collective consciousness in the 1965 edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. The book purportedly describes, “a special grade of pot growing only in the vicinity of Acapulco… [that] has a potency surpassed by few of the green varieties and usually comes at slightly higher prices or in short weights.” (^could be BS, taken from wiki.) From there this mexican wonder drug exploded in western pop culture, inspiring the likes of David Crosby, John Lennon, the band Rush, Robert Plant, and more recently MF Doom and Devin the Dude. It has also earned mention on SNL in 1975, and has been used as the title of Edwin Corley’s book imagining corporate america’s preparation for legal marijuana.

1st smoked acapulco gold on the easter of 1967. This is probably my all time favorite weed only ties imho are columbian gold and the real panama red! Smoked panama red in the jungle when I was in school in panama so I know it was for real! Acapulco gold is a very sweet smoke takes a min or 2 to really feel the effects so is not actually a creeper but does get better after a few minutes! Very energetic smoke and inspiring poets artists and musicians is probably what it does best. I’d say is good for ptsd and addh and probably anything that ails you!
