Kush Mints, also known as Bubba Kush Mints, is a balanced hybrid strain that is a cross between Bubba Kush and Animal Mints. Some enthusiasts argue that it is a cross between Animal Mints and the legendary OG Kush. Kush Mints boasts a high THC content, averaging around 22-24%, with some samples reaching up to 27%. Kush Mints is a 50% indica and 50% sativa hybrid, making it a perfect balance of both worlds.

Kush Mints is known for its potent and balanced effects, providing both relaxation and stimulation.

Kush Mints is reported to have a complex flavor profile, with notes of mint, coffee, chocolate, and earthy undertones.
