Origin
Orange Hill Special is Californian Orange crossed with Orange Bud, both long-standing Dutch Passion strains. Two decades of orange breeding on both sides are why the citrus is so clean. Dutch Passion is the breeder of record for the original.

About
Orange Hill Special is Dutch Passion's tribute to a national color, built from two orange strains.
Californian Orange and Orange Bud, both Dutch Passion's own, go into it, and the smell is close to a walk through an orange orchard. Reviewers rate it one of the happiest hybrids on record.
The orange is real.
What to Expect
Orange Hill Special is a flexible, upbeat hybrid. Leafly's reviewers put happy at 81 percent of a solid sample, far ahead of relaxed at 63, with focused at 45, and it eases toward sleep only at a larger dose. It works across the day.
Side effects barely appear, with dry mouth at just 9 percent and little else flagged. Not a hard knockout if that is what you want.
Flavor and Aroma
Orange Hill Special is bright, sweet orange with a light spice and a floral edge. The flavor holds the citrus with a sour lift. It is one of the cleaner, more orchard-like orange profiles.
Terpenes Explained
Orange Hill Special has no terpene test in our data, with Terpinolene, Caryophyllene, Limonene and Ocimene named and nothing measured.
The orchard-orange smell sits in Limonene and lighter compounds a standard panel handles unevenly. A jar that smells genuinely of fresh orange, not candy, is the one that matches the strain.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Orange Hill Special THC is reported around 21 percent, a strong, even figure, with no clean lab sample in our data. CBD can run to a couple of percent.
Orange Hill Special is a happy, low-downside strain, so it is a safe pick for a mixed group.
