Hybrid strainGolden Tiger
Golden Tiger is documented as a pure Sativa from Malawi and Meao Thai. The source describes sharp citrus notes, incense and wood, as well as a strongly soaring, long-lasting effect. A spear-shaped cola structure is another characteristic feature.

Editorial profile
Golden Tiger in detail
Origin & classification
Golden Tiger brings together two geographically clearly identified Sativa lines: Malawi and Meao Thai. The source description explicitly classifies the strain as a pure Sativa, while the structured category field only lists “Hybrid.” Both details can be reconciled if Hybrid is understood here as a cross between two lines rather than a mix of Sativa and Indica. The documented family tree therefore provides a more precise starting point than the general category.
Aroma & flavour
The aroma is described briefly but distinctly. Sharp citrus notes provide the bright, direct opening. Incense adds a dry, smoky-spicy character, while wood grounds the profile. The combination is less focused on sweetness or dessert associations than on a clear, tart and classic Sativa aroma. As no individual terpenes are documented, the sensory description should be based on these three explicitly named impressions.
Terpene profile
The source also makes a consistent statement about the effects: they are said to rise strongly and last for a long time. This refers to a pronounced, head-focused, upward progression, without the dataset reliably detailing individual moods or physical accompanying effects. More specific claims about creativity, focus, relaxation or medical use would therefore not be substantiated. The long duration and the character described as “soaring” remain the defining effect characteristics, although actual experiences may vary from person to person.
Effect tendency
A classic, spear-shaped cola structure is mentioned as a visible distinctive feature. This is a specific morphological detail that complements the otherwise primarily sensory profile. Information on flowering time, yield, plant height or cultivation method is not provided, however. For THC content, the source gives a range of 20 to 28 percent. It indicates a high possible level, but is not a guarantee for every plant or harvest. Phenotype, growing conditions, maturity and measurement methods can significantly influence laboratory values.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
Golden Tiger thus appears as a classic, clearly Sativa-influenced cross whose profile consists of African and Thai heritage, a sharp citrus-incense aroma, woody depth and a long-lasting, strongly soaring effect. The profile deliberately avoids making additional assumptions about undocumented breeders, terpenes or cultivation data.
