Jager

Jager, also known as Jagermeister, Jager Kush, or JGR, is an indica-dominant medical strain crafted by a breeder from southern Oregon. While its lineage remains somewhat mysterious, it is believed to be a cross between LA Confidential and Blue Dream. This strain boasts an 80% indica and 20% sativa composition, with a THC content ranging from 19% to 22%.

Famous for inducing a classic "couch lock," Jager delivers potent sedative and relaxing effects, making it ideal for addressing chronic pain, muscle spasms, and promoting restful sleep. Its sweet berry flavor and black licorice aroma draw parallels to the well-known German liquor Jagermeister.
