Sinai

Sinai is a 100% Sativa that grows naturally unattended, deep in Egypt’s desert mountains and also along the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt. Seeds were collected from these regions back in 1990 and 1997 by The Real Seed Company and later released for commercial sale. The word Sinai is the Egyptian translation for “Red Sea”. Origin stories of this Egyptian landrace date back to Ancient Egypt, where the cannabis strain was used to make hash. The Bedouin, a group of nomadic people, still cultivate the different landrace varieties of Sinai today.
