Detroit is synonymous with the American automotive industry.
It is, after all, home of the three largest car manufacturers in the United States.
For marijuana users in the local area, it is also the only place where one can get ahold of Alpine Star.
Alpine Star takes its roots from the incomparable Sensi Star.
Using it as a genetic base, the original breeder paired it with another powerhouse, Tahoe OG Kush.
Like Sensi Star, Alpine Star is mostly Indica and boasts of the same incredible full-body high.
The addition of Tahoe OG Kush enhanced its flavors with the addition of lemony fragrance.
Better than both parent strains, it comes with up to 2% CBD.
Primarily thought of as a medical strain, it has also found a footing among recreational users on the strength of its insanely high THC.
