Seb's take
Old Malawi Killer crossed with Tikal, five generations deep, and still inclined to claim more territory than her neighbours strictly allow for. Wood, incense and fruit on the nose; the high is psychedelic, giggly and energetic — proper sativa theatre. Thin, tall, and best given the room to spread out sideways.
Where it comes from
Old Malawi Killer crossed with Tikal, taken to the fifth filial generation — a pairing of an African landrace with a Central American line, and about as sativa as breeding gets at 85%. The Malawi heritage brings the soaring, near-psychedelic character; the Tikal lends structure to it over five generations of selection. A long-flowering, warm-climate sativa with landrace fire on both sides. Guawi wears her pedigree openly.
Nose & flavour
Wood and incense lead, dry and resinous, with fruit lifting underneath — an old-world sativa nose, more temple than fruit stall. Complex and layered, the kind of aroma that rewards attention. Distinctive, and unmistakably landrace.
The high
Psychedelic, giggly and energetic — proper sativa theatre, heady and buoyant with real momentum behind it. This is a soaring, cerebral effect rather than a settling one. Bright, lively company that keeps you moving.
Growing it
A tall, thin sativa that likes to claim her own space — the record notes each plant wants intense light and room around it, and takes well to SCRoG, horizontal training and pruning. Flowering is long at 77 to 84 days, the price of that landrace heritage, and the yield is described simply as high. THC runs 17 to 23%, CBD at 0.2%. Best in a warm climate with a long finish. Give her the room and the patience, and she spreads out handsomely.
