GMO Tropical Reign from Holy Mountain is a sativa-dominant strain, masterfully created by crossing GMO Crescendo and Super Tropical.
This unique blend reportedly conjures up a medley of cheesy, peppery, and nutty aromas, complimented by a delicate fruity undertone. From our research, many consider this strain to be lighter and fruitier than the well-known GMO Cookies. It piques our curiosity to see how it stands up against comparable strains such as Melt’s GMO Cookiez or Sugarbud’s GMO Cookies.

Smell
If you’re a fan of the classic GMO scent, then we think you will be pleased with this one. The aroma stays true to its GMO roots, delivering an uncompromising, authentic cheesy garlic experience.
Although the strain is christened ‘Tropical Reign’, the tropical or sweet nuances take a backseat. The fragrance is predominantly GMO, with barely a hint of the tropics. If you’re expecting a blast of tropical sweetness, you won’t find it here.
But if you appreciate the straightforward GMO aroma, you’re in for a treat. This strain delivers exactly what it promises – a pure, unadulterated GMO fragrance that enthusiasts will surely recognize and appreciate.
Appearance
The flower is presented in a sleek silver reflective bag that gleams and catches the eye. On the front label, you’ll find all the key facts about this product. Everything from the brand and product name, to its unique lineage, and even the cannabinoid percentages – it’s all there, easily accessible and clearly stated.
Flip the bag around, and the back label continues the transparency. It lists out the dominant terpenes, the weight of the product, the contact details for the grower, the lot number, and the date of packaging. Everything you need to know about this product, at a glance.
Opening the bag, a pleasant surprise awaits – an Integra humidity shield. It’s a thoughtful inclusion that reflects Holy Mountain’s dedication to preserving the freshness and quality of their flowers.
Now, onto the buds themselves. They’re somewhat airy, not as dense as you might expect. A beautiful blend of light and dark green leaves, dotted with orange pistils and a medium layer of trichomes. They may not be the prettiest buds that Holy Mountain has to offer, but they are far from the least appealing.
In the grand scheme of things, the appearance of GMO Tropical Reign sits comfortably in the middle – not the best, not the worst, just right for the everyday cannabis connoisseur.
Flavour
When it came to tasting GMO Tropical Reign by Holy Mountain, we went classic and smoked it in a joint. The flavor matched the smell pretty closely – GMO, through and through.
If you’re hoping to taste a burst of sweetness or a hint of tropical delight, this strain might not hit that mark. The dominant GMO taste doesn’t leave much room for these subtler notes to come through.
But don’t get us wrong – the GMO flavor isn’t overwhelming. It’s actually quite light, not as powerful as some of the other strains out there. So, if you enjoy a less intense experience, this one could be just the ticket. It’s a lighter, smoother GMO strain, perfect for those who appreciate a more subtle profile.
Experience
Our experience with GMO Tropical Reign by Holy Mountain started with lot number 373733230605, packaged on June 5, 2023. Containing a potent 25.0% THC and retailing at $119.95 for 28 grams, this strain gave us an experience that was definitely one for the books.
The high definitely leans more towards a sativa vibe. We felt it heavily in our head, giving a relaxed and happy high. Fair warning though, depending on your tolerance, you might find yourself forgetting things – that’s how potent the high was for some of us.
But don’t worry, it’s not all mind-bending intensity. It also brought an uplifting element to the table meaning you could probably use this one to kick start your day or wind you down in the evening.
All in all, the GMO Tropical Reign offers a unique and memorable experience that’s worth a try. Whether you’re new to cannabis or a seasoned user, this strain is sure to add a twist to your usual routine. Don’t miss the chance to check this one out!
