Description: Runtz is a balanced hybrid known for a sweet, candy-leaning aroma and a smooth, long-lasting feel.

Individual experiences may vary.

Runtz is the crowd-pleaser—sweet candy notes with bright citrus and a creamy finish that hints at mint and bubblegum. With β-Caryophyllene, Limonene, β-Myrcene, Linalool, and α-Bisabolol leading the profile, it tends to feel upbeat and feel-good early, then settle into calm body ease without getting too heavy. Balanced, long-lasting, and easy to enjoy any time the vibe needs a boost.
