Creme De Menthe is a modern hybrid cannabis strain resulting from the deliberate crossing of Triangle Kush and Mendo Breath F2. It is cultivated through a cycle of 63 days of flowering, requiring moderate growing expertise to reach its potential. This strain is adaptable to both indoor and outdoor environments and is noted for producing a high yield at the end of its maturation period.
The chemical profile of this cultivar is defined by a dominant presence of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene as secondary and tertiary terpenes. This combination dictates the sensory experience, balancing the earthy, grounding qualities of the primary myrcene with the sharp, spicy notes imparted by caryophyllene and a subtle citrus finish from the limonene. These constituents work in tandem to provide a distinct aromatic profile that persists from the raw flower through to the final consumption.
With a THC-dominant profile testing at approximately 25.8 percent and a negligible 0.07 percent concentration of CBD, Creme De Menthe is engineered for potent therapeutic and recreational applications. Users commonly report states of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted, making the strain a frequent choice for those seeking relief from stress and pain, or assistance with sleep. At this time, no notable offspring have been recorded in the genetic lineage of this hybrid.

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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
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.
