Purple Haze

About Purple Haze

Purple Haze is a sativa whose origins trace to the 1960s, popularized in cannabis culture by Jimi Hendrix's 1967 song of the same name. The cultivar is a cross of Purple Thai with Haze and represents one of the foundational expressions of the broader Haze pedigree. Flowers display the cultivar's namesake purple coloration alongside a complex aroma: earthy berry layered over sweet spice. Effects are classically cerebral and sativa — energetic, creative, mood-elevating, with minimal body component. THC tests commonly land in the 16-20% range — moderate by modern standards but characteristic of older Haze-pedigree genetics. Purple Haze remains a heritage fixture across California legal markets, valued as much for its cultural footprint as its effect profile.
