Do you love that cerebral, euphoric experience that comes along with cannabis? Before you fill your basket during your next Queen City stop, remember that not every cannabis product can recreate that feeling. The best uplifting cannabis strains and products have the right compound profile to get you into that creative, happy, and bad mood-busting state.
Airo Black Mamba Disposable Vape
With no need for charging and ready for use right out of the package, the Airo Black Mamba Disposable may be a great choice for your likely very busy schedule.
The primary terpenes in the Black Mamba cultivar (AKA strain) are limonene and myrcene, alongside around 87% THC content and 3% CBG. Limonene in particular has an energizing effect, while the relatively high CBG content brings its own uplifting benefits to the party. This is worth trying if you’re looking for a punchy product with a zero-minute prep time.
Wana Classic Mango 10 Pack
Aside from the 10mg THC contained per serving, each Wana product is enhanced with 30+ terpenes. In Classic Mango, you’ll find creative and energizing pinene leading the pack, not to mention delicious citrus flavor. These gummies are fully vegan and melt-proof to boot. This formulation makes these industry-leading gummies worth a try.
BITS Guava Go 20 Pack
If 10mg per edible is too large of a dose for your goals, BITS Guava Go contains 5mg per lozenge, totaling 100 mg for 20 BITS.
With Guava Go, THC is blended with a “pinch of coffee fruit” and a “drop of guarana,” which bring their own energizing effects alongside the THC. Coffee fruit contains caffeine, vitamin B2, and other compounds that may put some pep in your step, while Guarana is commonly found in energy drinks. If your idea of an uplifting day involves a hike, BITS from Verano may be just the right go-to.
&Shine Juice Bomb Disposable Vape
If you’re most interested in convenience during your busy season, the &Shine Juice Bomb Disposable Vape is an amazing product for an uplifting day. This vape’s robust terpene profile features mood-lifting limonene with some energizing pinene in the mix.
1906 Go Tin 20 Pack
The first 1906 Tin to make this list is another product that blends cannabis with functional compounds. 1906’s Go Tin contains 20 tablets, each containing 5mg THC complemented by tea-derived L-Theanine and our old friend, caffeine.
For those seeking an energizing and uplifting feeling, the caffeine-cannabis combo is a must-try. Bringing in the amino acid L-theanine makes the choice even more interesting, with research suggesting the compound may augment thinking, brain function, and more.
1906 Genius Tin 30-Pack
Whereas 1906’s Go may be formulated for physical energy, 1906 Genius is meant to uplift your focus. Containing 30 tablets per package, each suggested dose provides 2.5mg THC, 2.5mg CBD, and six functional ingredients believed to support mental clarity.
Ozone Jupiter 3.5 g Jar
Flower lovers who want to side-step couch-lock and find something that makes them feel ready to grab life by the horns, check out Jupiter, from Ozone. This 29% THC flower has terpenes like limonene and humulene to provide a head high for your most upbeat seshes without sacrificing on “stoned.”
Select Jack Herer .5 g Cartridge
This classic sativa-dominant hybrid is loved by many, from legacy growers to well-smoked newbies. Select’s Jack Herer .5 g Cartridge preserves the cultivar’s terpene profile in convenient vape form. At about 82% THC with a thick profile of terpenes, testing out how this strain makes you feel via vaporizer is a great option sans the smoke.
Essence Strawberry Cough 5 Pack
This true sativa dominant cultivar is sweet, and fruity, and leaves a good vibe in its wake. The Essence Strawberry Cough 5 Pack touts 2.5 grams of flower rolled into 5 half-gram joints. Small joints are commonly referred to as “dog walkers,” because their small stature packs a big punch on a quick stroll. Cute, right?
This product is potent, with 25.40% THC content. Although Strawberry Cough itself is widely known, it’s often hard to find in a sea of “za,” or “exotic” cannabis cultivars. This is reason enough to try this product in small joint form.
Select Durban Poison Briq
Aside from the hype around this classically energizing and uplifting sativa, the Select Durban Poison Briq is just plain cool. Perfectly sized for your purse or palm, it’s rare to see a disposable containing 2 grams of product.
Durban Poison is worth sampling in this innovative on-the-go format from Select. Consumers like you who’ve tried it say this cultivar leaves them feeling happy, energized, and creative.
What makes a cannabis product uplifting?
Several factors culminate in making the best uplifting cannabis strains and products. Factors to consider are:
- Cannabinoid content: The present cannabinoids and in which ratios they’re present
- Terpene profile: If the dominant or main terpenes in a product have energizing properties
- Delivery: How you consume your cannabis affects your body and mind
- Other additives: Does the product contain uplifting or energizing botanicals aside from cannabinoids and terpenes?
Your endocannabinoid system, or ECS, is the ultimate judge in your consumption journey. The primary factor that makes cannabis strains and products uplifting is that you feel uplifted after consuming it. Take note of each uplifting cannabis strain or product you try and assess how it makes you feel for a better session each time you consume.
The indica, sativa, and hybrid myth: How does it relate to uplifting cannabis?
You may have heard that sativa-leaning cultivars are the most energizing, but that’s not telling the whole story. Choosing a product based on its classification as sativa, indica, or hybrid is not the most thorough method when you’re seeking the best uplifting cannabis products.
Indica and sativa are terms that describe the plant’s physical appearance, but they over time became associated with certain effects. This classification does not define the plant’s genotype or the compounds it contains and how those compounds make you feel. Read more about this on our Cannabis 101 page.
