The crisp, lemony aromas greet the nose almost immediately when you open a jar of Alien Rift. A closer sniff and you will detect a nice, earthy and spicy undertone that together creates a unique and pleasant aroma profile. Light, almost neon-green buds with bright orange hairs, blanketed in trichomes deliver a taste that is at first noticeably citrusy, with a pleasant spiciness that hits the palate on the aftertaste.
Alien Rift is noted for its high THC content, and, as its namesake suggests, it will send you into the stratosphere. So be careful. This strain is not for the faint-of-high. The body high is exceptional, but its “couch-lock” effects are accented nicely by its mood-enhancing abilities. It has shown potential to be effective at counteracting feelings of depression, stress, anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia. Alien Rift will hit you hard but will also leave you happy and giggly, if not a little tired.
