LA Confidential is a classic indica, a strain that has been a benchmark for the category for years. Where the sativas shout, LA Confidential settles in quietly, earthy and grounded. It is the kind of old-school strain that reminds people what a true indica profile smells like.

Lineage

LA Confidential is generally described as a cross rooted in Afghani and OG-related genetics, the kind of old-school indica heritage that gives it its deep, resinous character. That lineage is exactly why it reads as heavy and earthy rather than bright or fruity.

Aroma and flavor

Pine and earth first, with a skunky, slightly sweet undertone and a hint of floral softness. It is a grounded, classic cannabis aroma rather than a candy-forward one, the smell people picture when they think of a traditional indica.

What we measured in LA Confidential

An ISO 17025-accredited laboratory measured the profile we use for Raspberry Relief: 88 identified compounds. The eight largest are below as a share of total terpenes, with the milligrams each one contributes to a 20mg chew. The full list of all 88, down to the trace ones, is on the product page.

LA Confidential is a pinene strain, not a myrcene strain: alpha-pinene at 31% and beta-pinene at 14%, 45% pinenes combined, which is why it smells like a forest floor before it smells like anything else. Myrcene at 23% gives it the earthy weight people associate with a classic indica, and limonene at 10% keeps it from going flat.

The vibe

LA Confidential is the Evening strain in the MONDAYS vibe system, the mellow end of the spectrum. The bag says RELAX, CALM, BODY. That is a description of its character and aroma, not a claim about how it will make you feel.
