Researched summary

Areto’s original summary of cited source reports. source

Barney’s Farm describes its Acapulco Gold release as sativa-dominant and gives a broad Central American genetic background. It reports earthy, pine, pungent and sweet aromas with citrus, coffee, pine and woody flavors. Its opening landrace label and later next-generation comparison leave exact ancestry unresolved.
