Animal Face

A Decorated Cross from Seed Junky Genetics

Animal Face is a hybrid (roughly 60% Sativa / 40% Indica) built by crossing Face Off OG with Animal Mints, two heavyweight OG and Cookies-lineage cultivars, at the hands of Seed Junky Genetics. First circulating in the 2010s craft cannabis scene, this cross has become a benchmark cultivar, cloned and grown under a long list of aliases — Animal Face #10, Animal Face Cookies (AFC), Creature Visage, and more — a sign of how widely breeders and growers have propagated this cut.

👃 Terpene Profile & Aromatics

Lab testing identifies Myrcene as the dominant terpene, rounded out by a supporting cast of:

• Limonene — bright citrus notes that lift mood
• Caryophyllene — peppery, spicy depth and CB2-receptor pain-relief potential
• Linalool — soft floral calm that reinforces sedation
• Alpha- and Beta-Pinene — sharp pine backbone
• Humulene — earthy, herbal undertone with anti-inflammatory properties

Together these produce a nose that's equal parts diesel fuel, fresh mint, pine, and citrus zest, with earthy, nutty, and spicy layers underneath.

👅 Flavor Experience

The smoke mirrors the aroma: an opening hit of minty, cooling diesel, transitioning mid-palate into sweet citrus and pine, and finishing with a creamy, nutty, faintly berry exhale.

🎯 Effects & Experience

Users consistently report a layered ride — euphoric and uplifted at onset, moving into happy, creative, and focused headspace, before settling into relaxed, tingly, and eventually sleepy territory as the high matures. This arc makes Animal Face equally suited to an active early evening and a wind-down before bed.

🎮 Use Cases & Activities

• Stress relief and relaxation after a long day
• Creative work during the uplifted early phase
• Mood enhancement for a happier, lighter headspace
• Pain management and sleep support as the body high deepens

💚 Medical & Therapeutic Potential

The Myrcene-Caryophyllene combination may help explain reported use for anxiety relief, stress relief, mood support, pain management, muscle relaxation, and sleep support — though individual response varies and this is not medical advice.

🏆 Awards & Recognition

Animal Face has picked up serious hardware, including:

• 1st Place Indica — Emerald Cup
• 1st Place Indoor Flower — Emerald Cup Awards 2022

⚠️ Consumer Considerations

With THC reported as high as 30%, this is a potent cultivar best approached by consumers with some tolerance. Start low, especially given occasional reports of dry mouth, dry eyes, anxiety, and paranoia at higher doses.
