Mojito strain guide
Mojito is a sativa-leaning hybrid from Swamp Boys Seeds, a cross of Orange Blossom Trail and Limegerian. True to its name, people know it for a lime and mint smell, and for a bright, focused feel that settles into something calmer.
Where does Mojito come from?
One strain database, another database and Grow Diaries all list Mojito as a cross of Orange Blossom Trail and Limegerian, bred by Swamp Boys Seeds. It's also sold as Mojito #1.
Neither parent is a household name, and beyond the cross and the breeder there isn't much documented history. The name is a nod to the cocktail, and the smell backs it up.
What does Mojito smell and taste like?
Lime and mint lead, with sweet and sour citrus around them. One strain database adds floral notes and a peppery edge, and Grow Diaries mentions a hint of pine over an earthy base. Mint is the flavour another database's reviewers mention most, followed by lime.
One strain database lists terpinolene, myrcene and pinene as its top terpenes, and Grow Diaries also puts terpinolene first. Terpinolene brings a fresh, herbal brightness that's common in energetic strains, and pinene adds the foresty note.
Mojito effects: what people report
People most often describe Mojito as uplifted, focused and energetic. Some reviews describe a relaxed start that turns into a gentle, heady feel, while others describe a tingly lift that eases into something balanced. Either way, most people reach for it during the day.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your tolerance. Some people mention feeling anxious, dizzy or getting a headache, and dry mouth comes up too.
How strong is Mojito?
Mojito is usually a high-THC strain. One strain database lists about 21% THC, and Grow Diaries gives a range of about 20% to 25%, with very little CBD.
Energetic strains can feel racy at higher amounts, so start small and give it time. Your label shows the actual numbers for that batch.
Buying Mojito in Canada
Mojito is also a common flavour name for drinks and vapes, so check that you're looking at a strain listing and not just a mint-lime flavouring. If the producer names Orange Blossom Trail and Limegerian, that's the Swamp Boys cross.
Look at the THC, CBD and packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of that lime and mint.
Mojito vs Key Lime Pie
There's no documented family link between these two, but they're the closest match on smell: both bring lime and mint. Key Lime Pie is a Girl Scout Cookies phenotype, sweeter and more dessert-like, with a relaxed, tingly reputation. Mojito is sharper and more herbal, and people describe it as more energetic and focused. If you want lime with a sweet, mellow finish, try Key Lime Pie. If you want something brighter for the daytime, Mojito fits better.
