Originating from the use in spiritual rituals across the Amazon, Santa Maria is Brazilian landrace strain spliced with modern genetics. Santa Maria is a slightly sativa-dominant plant that is created through a backcross of Mexican Haze x Silver Pearl. This process was repeated 7 times to stabilize the plant. Santa Maria hits you with a douse of heavy sativa effects even though there is a high percentage of indica genetics within the strain. The aroma is of sweet fruit and lavender with the smoke presenting hints of flower and spice. Santa Maria has long last effects that can also be arousing.
