Animal Mintz, not to be confused with the similarly named “Animal Mints,” is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing the infamous Fire OG X Animal Cookies X Thin Mint Cookies strains. This three-way cross is perfect for the experienced hybrid lover, with hard-hitting effects. The effects come on fast and hard, hitting your mind first with a powerful cerebral stimulation that has your mind activated and racing. A light hint of relaxation comes next, slowly inching its way into your body before taking hold and leaving you fully couch-locked and hopelessly sedated before you finally pass out and fall asleep. With these heavy effects, Animal Mintz is often chosen to treat conditions such as insomnia, chronic stress or PTSD, depression and chronic fatigue. This bud has a super sweet nutty cookie taste with mouthfuls of sharp mint and spicy coffee upon exhale. The aroma is very similar, although earthier and spicier overall with hints of deep dark coffee and a touch of doughy cookie sweetness. Animal Mintz buds have long tapered spade-shaped bright neon green nugs with amber undertones, thin orange hairs and a coating of frosty sandy amber crystal trichomes.
