Tiger’s Breath (often stylized as Tigers Breath or sometimes confused with similar names like Tiger Breath OG) is a rare indica-dominant cannabis strain that’s popping up more in dispensaries, especially in infused pre-rolls and premium flower lines as of 2026. It’s not as hyped as some Jelly-family strains, but it’s gaining fans for its potent, sedating effects and unique flavor twists.
Key Details
- Type: Indica-dominant hybrid (heavily leaning indica, sometimes listed as a rare phenotype of OG Kush).
- Genetics/Lineage: Primarily a phenotype of OG Kush (classic fuel/herbal vibes), with some modern cuts tied to “Breath” family lines like Mendo Breath influences (OGKB × Mendo Montage heritage) or specific breeder crosses (e.g., Tiger Cake × Jiffy Cake in some seed packs). Certain brands like Glorious Cannabis market it with fun fruity descriptors.
- THC Level: Varies widely by cut and grower — averages 18–25%, but premium or infused versions push 25–30%+ (hits hard for experienced users).
- Dominant Terpenes: Often caryophyllene (spicy/pepper), myrcene (herbal/earthy), limonene (citrus), with some batches leaning fruity.
Effects
This strain delivers a fast-hitting, heavy indica high — effects kick in almost immediately, leading to deep relaxation, happiness, floatiness, and classic couch-lock. Users describe feeling:
- Super relaxed and lazy (perfect for night time or unwinding)
- Euphoric and floaty at first
- Sedated body melt that can help with pain, insomnia, stress, or muscle spasms
- Some report a happy, sleepy vibe (like crashing after a long day)
It’s not ideal for beginners or daytime use — it can glue you to the sofa quickly. Great for evening sessions, chronic pain relief, or just melting away the day.
Flavor & Aroma
The profile is bold and distinctive:
- Earthy, pungent, and herbal (classic OG diesel/gas backbone)
- Spicy and harsh on the nose
- Some cuts (especially from brands like Glorious Cannabis) add a surprising fruity twist — think strawberry and watermelon juice (as one listing playfully says: “That’s not blood dripping out of the tiger’s mouth, it’s actually Strawberry and Watermelon juice!”)
- Overall: Dessert-gas hybrid — sweet/fruity meets fuel/pungent.
Appearance
Tiger’s Breath buds are typically dense, chunky, and resin-packed with bright orange pistils (like tiger stripes), minty/forest green tones, and a thick layer of sticky, milky amber or orange trichomes. They look frosty and potent — high bag appeal for sure!

If you’re into heavy-hitting indicas with OG roots and a touch of sweetness, Tiger’s Breath is a solid pick — especially if you spot it in those popular infused pre-rolls from Glorious Cannabis or similar brands. It’s perfect for chilling hard after a long day!
