@US3RNAM3 I’m from Kenya and I’ve smoked landrace strains found in East Africa - Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Ethiopia. Let me share a few pics and info on the landrace sativa strains found in East Africa.
Ethiopian Shashamane
This landrace strain is grown near central Ethiopia. Some people believe that it might be Lamb’s Bread strain from Jamaica because Emperor Haile Selassie provided free and fertile land to the Jamaicans who relocated to Ethiopia from 1955-1960.
The buds produce a taste that’s citrus, spicy, and some phenotypes smell like a spicy mango. It ranks on the same THC level as Malawi Gold.
Kisumu Sativa
Kisumu landrace derives its name, “Kisumu” from the city where its cultivated. Despite it’s high THC content and intense cerebral high, traditional healers use it to treat Asthma, Measles, and Malaria.
You’ll experience a combination of flavors that are earthy, woody and cypress. In case you want to read about how Kisumu sativa is used for treatment, here’s a thread explaining the details… Medical Use of Cannabis In East Africa
Moshi Sativa
Moshi sativa is a landrace strain that grows in northern Tanzania around Mount Kilimanjaro. It’s popular in East Africa thanks to it’s long-lasting highness that’s both cerebral and physical. In addition, it has a high success rate when grown in foreign environments outside of Africa.
