What is the Blue Dream strain of cannabis?
Also known as Azure Haze, Blue Dream is a sativa-dominant strain that was birthed in the great state of California.

The strain we see today has been revived and perfected by breeder DJ Short.
This dreamy bud has a great deal of positive effects, including feelings of happiness, euphoria, relaxation, and creativity.
With a relatively high THC range averaging 16-20%, and less than 1% CBD, Blue Dream packs a punch.
The nugs are long and bushy, with deep blue hues, amber and blue hairs, and an abundance of milky white trichomes; it not only looks beautiful, but it also gets the job done!
Because of its parent, Blueberry, Blue Dream is known for its blueberry aroma; flavors of blueberry and sugar linger in the air and on your tongue long after the smoke has gone.
