Unlike what its name suggests, AK-47 Strain is a mellow, albeit potent sativa-dominant strain, that can be described as gentle rather than forceful. A mix of several strains, this one comes heavily decorated with awards, and has earned its reputation for being a global favorite.
It is a bit of a mystery as to why exactly this strain was named after an aggressive Russian assault rifle, as the AK-47 strain is actually more on the mellow side of things. A very special blend of all the good things out there, AK-47 is a mix of a South American, Thai and Mexican sativa, crossed with an Afghani Indica.
Originating in the Netherlands in the early 90’s, this strain has earned some of the highest merits in the cannabis scene. AK-47, the strain, has won the 2nd prize for best sativa at the High Times Cannabis Cup that was held in 1999, the 1st prize at the Highlife competition in Spain and in 2010, it raked in the 1st prize at an expo in Toronto. With 16 awards under its belt, AK-47 ranks amongst the highest ranked strains ever created.
