Strain of the Week: May 24, 2015 (Dutch Treat)

You may think that cannabis is the chief export of the Netherlands.  But it’s not.  Neither are tulips, windmills, or wooden clogs.  Cheese?  Nope.  Bikes?  Shockingly not.  It happens to be that the Dutch export oil more than any other product.  But cannabis must be second, right?  Sorry.  Machine engines.  Then electronics.  As it turns out, rather unsurprisingly, that a substance held to be unlawful by the vast majority of the world’s countries doesn’t even crack the top 10 of Dutch offerings.

But just because they don’t do it it big, it doesn’t mean they don’t do it well. Bursting with sweetly acidic citrus and hints of eucalyptus, the flavor of our Strain of the Week is refreshing and crisp.  Despite unverifiable genetics, it is largely accepted that Dutch Treat is an indica dominant hybrid.  While an uplifting sativa rush is present and can make for competent relief from depression, the true value of Dutch Treat comes in the form of its relaxation.  Ideal for unwinding at the end of the day, its sedative properties are most effective for anxiety and PTSD but are also useful to treat mild pain and insomnia.
