The Punch Berries Story
Punch Berries is an indica-dominant Humboldt cannabis strain developed by Joe Fasho in 2017 from Purple Punch and Forbidden Fruit. Known as “The Fasho Cut,” this selection combines purple coloring with an aroma reminiscent of sangria, overripe oranges, and grapes. Its reported genetic profile is 80% indica and 20% sativa.
Punch Berries Genetics and The Fasho Cut
The story of Punch Berries begins with two parent strains: Purple Punch and Forbidden Fruit. Joe Fasho developed the cross in 2017, and his selection became known as “The Fasho Cut.” That name identifies the specific selection described here, giving readers a useful reference when exploring its background.
Both the parentage and the selection name are part of its identity. Purple Punch × Forbidden Fruit describes the cross, while The Fasho Cut identifies Joe’s selection within that lineage. Explore our strain library to learn about other genetics featured by The Humboldt Cure.
Humboldt Cannabis With a Fruit-Forward Aroma
Punch Berries features purple coloring and a distinctive combination of citrus and grape aromas. Its sangria-like scent brings together overripe orange notes and a ripe grape character. These descriptions refer to its aromatic profile rather than added fruit or flavoring.
For readers getting to know this strain, its purple appearance, fruit-forward aroma, and named lineage provide three starting points. Together, they describe the selection beyond its indica and sativa percentages.
