LEAFLY | TOP CBD STRAINS | AUGUST 2018 | ASTRAL WORKS

CBD-rich cannabis is an excellent tool for cannabis consumers looking to harness the relaxing effects of cannabis without the euphoric punch of THC. Though many CBD-dominant strains fall flat in the aroma or flavor categories, some breeders and growers have worked hard to hone unique genetics that deliver all the wow-factor of heavyweight indoor buds without the heady razzmatazz of THC-dominant strains.

These strains were rated and scored using Leafly’s Cannabis Rating System. To learn more about the criteria behind the score, click here.

Astral Works by Prūf Cultivar is easily the best CBD strain I’ve had in years. Its striking citrus aroma is full-bodied without being forcefully sour. The subtle notes of pepper, herbs, and hay temper the brightness of the aroma while contributing to the overall complexity of the strain’s fragrance.

The flavor was also above and beyond any CBD strain I’d ever tasted, following through from the aroma with notes of citrus and floral notes that lingered on the palate before concluding with a nice, clean finish.

Its effects are also outstanding, offering calm relaxation without being dissociative, confusing, or distracting.
