Origins and Genetics

Tutankhamon, commonly known as King Tut, is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (80% sativa / 20% indica) descended from the legendary AK-47 lineage. Named after the ancient Egyptian pharaoh, this strain lives up to its royal title with extreme potency and powerful, immersive effects. It has consistently tested at THC levels up to 29%, placing it among the strongest sativa-leaning hybrids available.

Flavor and Aroma

Tutankhamon delivers a sweet, fruity flavor profile led by citrus and earthy notes, followed by a slightly skunky aftertaste that becomes more pungent on the exhale. The aroma is surprisingly refined and delicate, featuring floral earthiness with a subtle sweetness rather than overwhelming funk.

Potency and Effects

The high comes on fast with an intense cerebral rush that quickly numbs the mind and pulls the user into a hazy, introspective headspace. Thoughts become distant and spacey as mental stimulation gives way to deep contemplation. Over time, a numbing body high builds, relaxing muscles and leading to heavy couch-lock. Despite its sativa dominance, the effects are more stoning than energizing, making it better suited for late afternoon or evening use. Tutankhamon is often chosen for relief from chronic pain, stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic fatigue.

Appearance

Tutankhamon buds are large and oversized with a classic Christmas-tree shape. They display forest green coloration with dark olive leaves, thick purple pistils, and a super sticky coating of visible, sugary resin that hints at the strain’s extreme potency.
