Amnesia Haze is a globally renowned Sativa strain, developed by Soma Seeds in Amsterdam around 2003. Its name, "Amnesia," refers to its ability to help users temporarily forget stress and worries, rather than causing actual memory loss. This strain quickly gained prominence, becoming a staple in Amsterdam's coffeeshop scene.
The lineage of Amnesia Haze is a complex blend, combining genetics from Southeast Asian landraces (such as Thai, Cambodian, and Laotian) with Jamaican Haze and Afghani-Hawaiian. This intricate cross results in a distinct Sativa profile, balanced with robustness and a manageable flowering time inherited from its Indica components.
Amnesia Haze has garnered numerous accolades, including winning the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2004 and the Sativa Cup in 2012. Despite its demanding flowering period of 12-13 weeks, the exceptional quality it delivers makes Amnesia Haze a highly sought-after and celebrated Sativa strain that continues to be a benchmark in the cannabis world.
