The Short Answer
What kind of high is Pie-Face-Og?
Myrcene-led and sweet-cherry on the palate, most often reported euphoric and picked for watching tv/movies.
Terpenes decide how a strain feels — THC% only decides how strong the dose is. Here is the family, the chemistry behind it, and what people reach for it to do.
Terpenes are the aromatic compounds that shape the character of a high. The blend a strain carries — not its THC percentage — is what makes one feel bright and social and another heavy and sleepy, which is why the top three are listed rather than just the leader.
Terpene percentages belong to the jar, not the strain. They move with harvest timing, drying, cure and shelf age — the lighter ones literally evaporate. What holds steady is which terpenes lead, so that is what we rank.

The Experience
Professor High Says...
In-depth strain breakdown from Professor High, our AI cannabis expert
Okay, this one hits with a sweet cherry pie aroma right out of the jar, and the first few puffs bring on a bright, giggly euphoria that catches me off guard in the best way. My thoughts start moving faster, more playful, almost bubbly, and I find myself wanting to talk through every idea popping into my head. That's the Pinene and Limonene doing their thing up top. But give it fifteen, twenty minutes, and the Myrcene starts pulling the whole experience down into my limbs — shoulders loosen, jaw unclenches, and that creative buzz mellows into a comfortable, couch-adjacent relaxation without fully knocking me out. It's a nice arc: uplifted and social first, soft-bodied and content later. The cherry-berry-earth flavor lingers pleasantly on the exhale the whole way through. This feels like an afternoon strain that can carry you into a chill evening without slamming the door on your energy too early.

Cannabinoids (THC & CBD)
THC 18-26% · Type I chemovar
THC% tells you how strong. Terpenes tell you how it feels.
THC percentage is a property of the product in your hand, not of the strain. It shifts with the batch, the grower, the harvest, and how the flower was cured and stored — the same strain can test several points apart from two different jars.
Treat the ranges below as market context for what to expect on a shelf — then read the actual label on the product you are buying, and use the terpene profile to judge how it will feel.

Detailed Description
The long-form profile · ~2 min read
A Sweet Cherry Kiss Meets OG Muscle
Pie-Face-Og is a 60% Indica / 40% Sativa hybrid bred by Archive Seed Bank, born from crossing the dessert-leaning Cherry Pie with the resinous, potent Face Off OG. The result is a strain that pairs candy-sweet cherry sweetness with the grounded muscle of an OG backbone, giving you a high that feels both euphoric and settled.
🧬 Genetic Heritage & Lineage
- Parents: Cherry Pie x Face Off OG (some cuts trace to the Face Off OG BX1 backcross)
- Breeder: Archive Seed Bank
- Origin: Developed in the 2010s, with this specific phenotype dated around 2019
- Nicknames: Pie Face, Pie Face OG, Pie Face OG Kush, Pieface #44
👃 Terpene Profile & Aromatics
This is a Myrcene-dominant chemovar (Type II), and it shows: Myrcene clocks in around 37%, setting a sedating, body-forward foundation before the rest of the profile builds on top.
- Myrcene (~37%) — earthy, musky, and the reason the body-relaxation lands early
- Pinene (~18%) — sharp pine notes that add clarity and a touch of alertness
- Caryophyllene (~16%) — peppery spice that also brings anti-inflammatory potential
- Linalool (~8%) — soft floral calm that supports the strain's mellow undertone
- Limonene (~8%) — bright citrus lift that keeps mood elevated
- Ocimene (~7%) & Humulene (~6%) — subtle herbal and woody accents rounding out the nose
Expect a sweet, earthy base laced with cherry, berry, pine, diesel, spice, and floral notes shifting depending on the phenotype and cure.
👅 Flavor Experience
You'll notice a sweet cherry inhale that mellows into earthy, berry, and hash-like tones on the exhale, with occasional floral, fruity, or spicy flashes depending on the batch. It's a dessert-adjacent flavor profile with just enough OG funk to remind you of its Face Off lineage.
🎯 Effects & Experience
The high tends to open euphoric, happy, and giggly, quickly layering in uplifted and talkative energy before settling into a relaxed, creative body feel. Some phenotypes lean more energetic, making this a flexible hybrid depending on the specific cut and dose.
🎮 Use Cases & Activities
- Creative Projects — the uplifted, talkative onset can spark ideation
- Socializing — giggly, chatty effects suit group settings
- Stress Relief — the Myrcene/Linalool combo eases mental tension
- Pain Management — Caryophyllene's CB2 activity may support physical relief
💚 Medical & Therapeutic Potential
Users report reaching for Pie-Face-Og for stress relief, anxiety management, and depression support on the mental side, and chronic pain, appetite stimulation, and nausea management on the body side. As always, these are anecdotal patterns, not medical guarantees — talk to a healthcare provider about your specific needs.
⚠️ Consumer Considerations
With THC ranging 18-26%, this strain suits both curious novices (starting low) and experienced consumers chasing a fuller-bodied hybrid effect. Watch for common cannabis side effects like dry mouth, dry eyes, and dizziness, especially at higher doses.
