OG Kush Cannabis Strain
OG Kush is a indica hybrid cultivar carried at The Reserve. Here's what to expect from its aroma, effects and lineage, and how to shop it in New Rochelle.
OG Kush Strain Overview
OG Kush is the strain that built modern American cannabis. First popularized in 1990s California, its unmistakable “Kush” nose, equal parts pine forest, lemon peel and gasoline, became the reference point that hundreds of later hybrids were bred toward.
The high is heavy but clear-headed at first: a rush of euphoria that settles into full-body relaxation, making it a long-standing favorite for winding down after work or easing stress. Its potency and dense, frosty buds are exactly why it remains a menu staple decades on.

OG Kush FAQs
Is OG Kush an indica or sativa?
OG Kush is classified as an indica hybrid. A West Coast cornerstone first popularized in 1990s California, it is widely believed to descend from a Chemdawg phenotype crossed with Hindu Kush, and it became the reference point hundreds of later hybrids were bred toward.
What does OG Kush feel like?
OG Kush tends to feel heavy but clear-headed at first, opening with a rush of euphoria that settles into full-body relaxation and a sense of eased tension. That combination is why it has long been a favorite for winding down.
What does OG Kush taste and smell like?
OG Kush has an unmistakable 'Kush' nose that is equal parts pine forest, gassy fuel and bright lemon peel. That earthy, gassy, citrus-zest profile is the classic aroma many other strains are compared against.
Is OG Kush strong and how much THC does it have?
OG Kush is known for its potency and dense, frosty buds, but the actual THC varies by batch and grower, with New York flower typically testing around 18 to 35 percent. Check The Reserve's live menu for the current batch's lab-tested THC rather than a fixed number.
When should I use OG Kush?
Given its euphoric-then-relaxing arc, people commonly reach for OG Kush in the evening or after work when they want to unwind and ease stress. This is lifestyle framing, not medical advice.
