About Lambs Bread
Lambs Bread is arguably the most famous Jamaican strain, referenced by Bob Marley in interviews as his preferred smoke. The name is said to refer to the way the buds stick together like lamb's wool. True Lambs Bread is a pure sativa grown in the highlands of Jamaica, where Rastafarian cultivators preserved landrace genetics through generations of careful selection. The high is famously clean and energetic — a 'conscious' high that Rastas favored for meditation and music-making. Its genetics remain in Jamaica through the work of local growers and have been exported through seed preservation efforts.
