About LA Confidential
LA Confidential was bred from the OG LA Affie clone (a legendary Afghani-derived cut from the LA underground) crossed with Afghani to stabilize and reinforce its indica traits. It became known for its unique ability to provide deep relaxation and pain relief while keeping the user mentally clear and functional — unusual for a heavy indica. The aroma blends pine, earth, and sweet floral notes with a kush undertone. LA Confidential won multiple Cannabis Cups and helped define the West Coast medical indica experience.
