AK-47
Colombian × Mexican × Thai × Afghani · Serious Seeds
AK-47 from Serious Seeds is a four-way landrace cross that's stayed on global menus since 1992, a rare feat in modern cannabis. The lineage pulls from Colombian, Mexican, Thai, and Afghani parents, and the result is a sativa-leaning hybrid with a mellow but persistent cerebral lift. Most consumers describe it as a social strain that holds up across a long evening without spiking.
Flavor is earthy and slightly sour with a sweet woody finish, a classic profile that stands apart from the dessert-dominated 2026 catalog. Myrcene leads the terpenes, paired with caryophyllene and pinene. A friendly pick for adults 21+ who appreciate older-school genetics. Common on California connoisseur menus and increasingly available through licensed NY shops.

Worth keeping for the right night
Tried this on a Saturday-morning patio with coffee. The uplifted matched the moment — that's not always the case with hybrids you've heard about for years. Earthy on the palate didn't hurt. Not the strain I'd reach for first, but the one I'd reach for when the night called for it. Picked up at a licensed New York retailer; OCM QR-code verified. 21+, as always.

Earthy forward, with sour on the exhale
On the first inhale, the earthy comes through clearly — not perfumed, just present. Sour layers in on the exhale, and the sweet stays around longer than I expected. The sativa structure reads honestly: nothing showy, just balanced. AK-47 earns its name in the catalog. Adults 21+ only.

Settles in like the catalog says it does
Settled in for a mid-afternoon work session with this. The uplifted hit first — not aggressive, more like the room quieted slightly. Happy crept in over the next hour. Reliable for what AK-47 advertises: nothing surprising, which is the compliment. Bought from a licensed dispensary, verified the QR code, kept it adults-only.
