THE GENETICS are rumored to have originated somewhere in Jamaica, but no one seems quite able to confirm that. Nevertheless, it is generally recognized as evolving out of the island country and could possibly be a contender as a Jamaican landrace. The rumors go deeper when you look into the history of Lamsbread, where it is even believed by many to have been Bob Marley’s personal favorite! Whether or not this little factoid is true, its strong and vibrant tropical sativa nature is evident in the plant and after taking a dab of this complex, fruity and woody bouquet. The total terpene concentration crosses the 20% mark, immediately putting it “THE TOTAL into the highest echelon of flavor and vitality.

pain patient, I absolutely need that higher dosage. I look for myrcene dominant profiles at every opportunity, specifically because they are so effective for my pain related symptoms. Here, as many of you know, some of the most pain relieving, stoney baloney cultivars produce what’s known as ‘couch lock’ - the deeply relaxed and therapeutic feeling of being glued to a comfy surface. Dropping one of the larger chunks of Lambsbread crystal - soaked in the slightly woody, fruity sauce with just a hint of gas on the top - brought an immediate rush of anti inflammation over my body, showering me with the heavy body feels that I adore when my body aches in cold weather. As my body started to relax, I noticed I was very distinctly not couch locked. Instead, the Lambsbread picked me up after a long day and helped me make the push to complete the work I needed to get done. Finding cultivars that can at once sedate your pain and energize your mind are an extremely useful dab to keep in your personal stash box, and Cresco’s Lambsbread live diamond sauce hits the spot. The flavor is complex and nuanced with aromatic layers that shift from the inhale to the exhale, supporting symptom relief and productivity in tandem.
