Kosher Kush is a mostly Indica hybrid that won the High Times Medical Cannabis Cup in 2012. It has the distinction of being the first commercial strain blessed by a Rabbi. This strain produces a powerful but lazy body buzz that can leave novice users quite sedated, but it also lifts their moods with its Sativa-based cerebral effects. New users warn that great caution should be exercised when using this strain as the sleepiness can be overwhelming. This attribute, however, makes Kosher Kush effective for treating insomnia and restlessness caused by anxiety and stress. Patients dealing with pain may also find it helpful due to its numbing body effects.
