David’s August Pick:
Devil Driver by CAM

Devil Driver is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain known for its energizing and uplifting effects – perfect for the summer! I recently tried this for my birthday ♋ and it was amazing!

It’s a cross between Melonade and Sundae Driver, offering a sweet, fruity, and creamy citrus-melon flavor. Definitely one of our best top-shelf sativa hybrids.
