Initial Thoughts

Animal Face, cultivated by RYTHM, is a remarkable strain making its rounds at RISE dispensary in Silver Spring, Maryland. My awesome budtender Melia enthusiastically recommended it during my visit—she had previously mentioned it while guiding me toward Goat Piss (our last review). It seems Animal Face gained such popularity at RISE that it quickly sold out. Fortunately, it’s now available at Green Goods in Rockville and Ritual in Curtis Bay (near Baltimore), giving more cannabis enthusiasts a chance to experience its appeal. With its reputation as a soulful strain originally bred by Seed Junky Genetics, Animal Face blends pedigree, flavor, and potency, making it an enticing option for any cannabis connoisseur.

Appearance

Animal Face boasts striking visuals, with frosty buds coated in a glistening layer of trichomes and bright orange hairs that add vibrancy. The dense, resinous structure reflects the quality cultivation RYTHM is known for. The buds’ mix of forest greens and sparkling crystals make it a treat to look at before you even dive into its aroma and effects.

Fresh, but starting to cure

Aroma

As soon as you open the container, Animal Face greets you with a captivating aroma that blends earthy and herbal notes with a subtle sweetness. A touch of diesel adds depth, while a nutty, citrusy undertone completes the aromatic profile. It’s a bold yet balanced scent that sets the stage for an immersive flavor experience.

Flavor

The flavor profile of Animal Face is as unique as its lineage. Sweet, sugary notes lead the way, complemented by hints of citrus, pine, and earth. A nutty finish ties it all together, creating a satisfying and complex experience that lingers on the palate. Each puff is a reminder of its Face Off OG and Animal Mints parentage, combining the best of both worlds.

Lineage

Animal Face is a love child of Face Off OG and Animal Mints, two iconic strains from the legendary Seed Junky Genetics. This indica-dominant hybrid showcases its heritage with a harmonious balance of flavors and effects, making it a go-to for relaxation and unwinding.

Effects

True to its indica dominance, Animal Face delivers a deeply calming high that’s best reserved for after-hours. The effects start with a gentle cerebral lift, melting away stress and tension as a wave of euphoria sets in. As the high progresses, it transitions into a soothing body relaxation, helping you let go of the day’s worries and sink into blissful tranquility. With THCa levels ranging from 26-30%, this strain is potent enough to provide relief for chronic stress while keeping you grounded and at ease.

Conclusion

Animal Face is a testament to RYTHM’s dedication to cultivating premium cannabis. Its blend of powerful effects, flavorful profile, and striking appearance makes it a top-tier choice for evening relaxation. Thanks to Melia’s recommendation, this strain has become a favorite among many, and its availability at Green Goods in Rockville and Ritual in Curtis Bay ensures that more people can enjoy its soulful charm. Whether you’re seeking a calming end to your day or simply looking to experience a high-quality strain, Animal Face is an excellent addition to your cannabis repertoire.
