AlienLabs' Alien Mints Description

Alien Mints is an out-of-this-world treat. And while she was created here on Earth, Alien Mints' whopping THC levels and rich terpenes are more than capable of sending you on an intergalactic journey. Keep reading to learn all there is to know about the Alien Mints cannabis strain.



History of the Alien Mints Cannabis Strain



Alien Mints was created by Alien Labs in collaboration with Seed Junky Genetics. Alien Labs was founded in Sacramento, California in 2014 by grower and breeder Ted Lidie. Originally from Redding, California, Ted and the Alien Labs brand have gained a lot of popularity thanks to their many strain creations, collaborations with other high-profile cannabis brands, and unique line of merchandise. Some of Alien Labs' most beloved strains include Mars OG, Biskante, Area 41, and Atomic Apple.



Seed Junky, on the other hand, was also founded in 2014, by JBeezy, one of the biggest names in modern cannabis. Having collaborated with Cookies, Jungle Boys, and many other high-profile brands, Seed Junky is behind the creation of many popular hybrids, including LA Kush Cake, Bubblegum Sherb, Animal Mints, Jealousy, The Zoap, Purple Octane, and many more.



Genetic Lineage of Alien Mints



Alien Mints by Alien Labs stems from an Animal Mints backcross. Animal Mints, as mentioned earlier, is a beloved strain from Seed Junky. Rumored to stem from Animal Cookies and SinMint Cookies (or Animal Cookies, GSC, and Blue Power, depending on what you read) Animal Mints packs up to 30% THC and a rich aroma combining notes of earthy cookies with fresh hints of mint and pine. Its effects are balanced, evoking both an uplifting cerebral stimulus and a relaxing body stone.



Note that there are other varieties of Alien Mints on the market with varying genetic lineages. Strane, for example, produces a very popular variety of Alien Mints that stems from Alien Cookies x Kush Mints 11. Some dispensaries also stock Alien Mints stemming from a cross of Alien OG and GSC.



Physical Characteristics of Alien Mints



Alien Mints is a stocky strain that produces dense, pine-shaped, green flowers that look fluffy and delicious. Under their crystalline coating of trichomes, Alien Mints buds take on a silver sheen with protruding orange hairs and light purple hues mixed in among different shades of green.



Properties and Effects of Alien Mints



Alien Mints is a very potent hybrid strain. Based on reports from dispensaries and users, the flowers typically contain around 27–30% THC, though some batches have tested considerably higher. It also contains trace amounts of CBD and other cannabinoids, along with a complex mix of terpenes, including caryophyllene, myrcene, limonene, linalool, and pinene. Together, these terpenes give Alien Mints its unique aroma.



Pinch and squeeze a dense Alien Mints nug and you'll detect upfront notes of earth with a backdrop of fresh mint. Break them apart in a grinder, however, and Alien Mints flowers will release a much more intense aroma combining the earthy sweetness of dark chocolate with strong overtones of fresh mint, spearmint, and sage. Close your eyes and take a second whiff, and you may also notice subtle notes of lavender, dried apricots, cookies, as well as lemony diesel and pepper. Alien Mints' flavor is similar, boasting an earthy, almost doughy sweetness on the inhale, followed by a minty exhale with notes of lemony gas and spice.



As is to be expected of a strain with such high concentrations of THC and terpenes, Alien Mints hits hard and fast. After just one or two tokes, users report an uplifting rush of cerebral energy that leaves them feeling happy, social, and creative. Depending on your tolerance, this strain might provide just enough energy and focus to get you through an afternoon of work or to help you concentrate on a creative project. Moreover, Alien Mints' initial cerebral buzz may help elevate your mood, leaving you in the perfect mindset to chat with friends or family at a get-together. On the other hand, some users also report enjoying this strain for quiet moments of introspection and meditation.



Behind the cerebral stimulus, users also report feeling a creeping body stone after consuming Alien Mints. In general, Alien Mints' physical effects usually aren't so strong as to cause sedation or sleepiness. Instead, you may notice an initial physical warmth that gently grows and extends out into your extremities, leaving you feeling completely relaxed and soothed.



Uses of Alien Mints



Given its balanced physical and mental effects, high THC levels, and unique aroma, it's no wonder that Alien Mints is becoming ever-more popular. Based on reviews and user reports, the strain appeals to cannabis users of all types and pairs well with:



• Working from home


• Creative activities
