Cherry Wine
Cherry Wine is a modern hybrid strain with an undocumented lineage. It has established a significant presence in the cultivation community, performing with moderate difficulty across both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety following a flowering period that typically spans 63 days.
The chemical profile of Cherry Wine is characterized by a dominant presence of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene as the tertiary terpene. This combination shapes the distinct sensory experience of the strain, defining its aromatic and flavor profile through these three specific compounds.
Users of this THC-dominant hybrid report effects that are primarily relaxed, happy, and uplifted, making it a frequent selection for the management of stress, pain, and sleep. The influence of the strain extends significantly into modern breeding, as it serves as parent stock for a wide array of progeny, including 369, Boxed Wine CBD, Cherry Wine CBD, Cherry Wine F2, Cherrywine F3, Drunk President, Familiar Fruit, Hawaiian Wine, London Cherry Cobbler, Nepalese Kandywine, Old Wine CBD, and Razzberry Pop Rockz.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy

morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
