Genetics & Origin

Origin

Shark's Breath is Great White Shark crossed with Jamaican Lamb's Breath, bred by DNA Genetics, the team behind Tangie and LA Confidential. Great White Shark brings the resin and the pungency; Lamb's Breath, a Jamaican landrace sativa, brings the bright, upbeat head that the effect data reflects. It has one descendant on file. Its record is a Spannabis Cup Championship win.

About

Shark's Breath has a menacing name and a bright, focused high.

DNA Genetics crossed Great White Shark with Jamaican Lamb's Breath for it. The Lamb's Breath parent is an upbeat sativa. The effect is more happy and focused than sedating, so the reviewer data reads energetic even though sources call it soothing.

Not the knockout the name suggests.

What to Expect

Shark's Breath plays bright and functional, not the heavy indica the name implies. Leafly's reviewers lead with happy at 57 percent of a solid sample, with uplifted at 52 and a euphoric, focused quality behind. The weighted data pushes the uplifted reading to the front.

The physical negatives are moderate, dry mouth near 32 percent and dry eyes at 16, but the weighted data flags headache and dizziness noticeably higher, both in the low thirties. Keep the dose moderate.

Flavor and Aroma

Shark's Breath smells pungent and sweet with a sour, tangy edge and a faint chemical note. The recorded flavor is mostly earthy with pine. The aroma is more interesting than the taste here.

Terpenes Explained

Shark's Breath has no measured terpene data, with only Camphene and Caryophyllene named.

Nothing is quantified, so the sour-and-tangy smell is a nose call. The Great White Shark parent usually brings a sharp, pungent character, and the Jamaican side adds a brighter note. A jar with a genuinely tangy, pungent smell is closest to the description.

Cannabinoids and Potency

Shark's Breath THC is reported up to about 26 percent, with no clean lab sample in our data. Sources call it potent, and the bright effect does not soften that. CBD is around one percent.

Shark's Breath can test into the mid twenties, so plan for a strong strain even though it plays more heady than heavy.
