New york sour diesel strain
New York Sour Diesel strain most often refers to the NYC Diesel strain, a sativa-dominant hybrid known for its energetic effects and pungent grapefruit and diesel aroma. Created by Amsterdam-based seed bank Soma Seeds in 1997, it is a different strain than the classic Sour Diesel.
Genetic lineage
NYC Diesel is the result of crossing a Mexican Sativa landrace with an Afghani landrace strain. It is a sativa dominant hybrid, with some sources listing it as approximately 60% sativa.
Aroma and flavor
- Aroma: A pungent mix of sour citrus particularly grapefruit and lime blended with the classic skunky, diesel fuel scent.
- Flavor: The taste mirrors the aroma, with notes of sweet and sour grapefruit, lime, and a spicy, earthy, and diesel-like aftertaste. The distinctive taste has helped it win multiple awards, including several High Times Cannabis Cups in the early 2000s.
