Berry Haze strain guide
Berry Haze, also sold as Haze Berry, is a sativa-leaning cross of Super Silver Haze and Blueberry. People know it for a sweet berry smell with an herbal edge and an upbeat, creative feel that softens as it goes. Some cuts are also reported to carry real CBD.
Where does Berry Haze come from?
Berry Haze is a cross of Super Silver Haze, a well-known Dutch sativa, and Blueberry, the berry-scented classic credited to DJ Short. Two strain databases agree on that pairing and both describe it as about 80% sativa.
The breeder is not documented. The idea behind the cross is easy to see: Haze for the lively, heady side and Blueberry for its sweet fruit smell.
What does Berry Haze smell and taste like?
Most descriptions start with sweet blueberry and berry, followed by herbal and earthy notes from the Haze side. One strain database's reviewers also mention a hint of coffee.
One strain database lists caryophyllene as its leading terpene, followed by limonene and linalool. Caryophyllene adds a peppery bite, limonene a bright citrus lift and linalool a soft floral note. The flavour is usually sweet berry on the inhale with an herbal finish.
Berry Haze effects: what people report
People most often describe Berry Haze as creative, energetic and euphoric, with a quick lift in the head. Many say a relaxed, calmer feeling follows later, which fits its mix of Haze and Blueberry.
These are reports, not promises. Dry mouth is a common complaint, and some people mention feeling anxious or paranoid, as with many Haze strains. Your product, how much you have and your tolerance all matter.
How strong is Berry Haze?
Listings put Berry Haze at about 18% to 20% THC, with one strain database noting it often tests higher. CBD is where it stands out: that database says some cuts carry a significant amount, and another database lists about 10%. Other batches may have very little, so it varies by grower.
If CBD matters to you, check the label rather than counting on the strain name. Start small and give it time. Our indica vs sativa guide explains what the sativa label does and doesn't tell you.
Buying Berry Haze in Canada
Look for both names, Berry Haze and Haze Berry. Don't mix it up with Blueberry Haze or Blue Haze, which are listed as Blueberry crossed with a Haze rather than Super Silver Haze specifically.
Compare the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of that berry smell.
Berry Haze vs Super Silver Haze
Super Silver Haze is one of Berry Haze's parents and gives it much of its lively, heady side. Super Silver Haze smells more herbal, spicy and citrusy, while Berry Haze softens that with sweet berry from its Blueberry parent. Both are described as upbeat and creative, though Berry Haze is said to ease into a calmer finish, and some cuts carry more CBD. If you want the classic Haze experience, start with Super Silver Haze. If you'd like it sweeter and gentler, try Berry Haze.
