Lineage: Cream D' Mint (Cookies & Cream x Mint Chocolate Chip) [Specific "Wojo" Phenotype]
Market Status: The "Champion Cut"; Wojo Mints is technically not a standalone seed line but a specific, world-famous phenotype of Cream D' Mint discovered by the hash masters at Wojo Co. It became so legendary after winning 1st Place for Non-Solvent Hash at the 2018 High Times Cannabis Cup that it took on a life of its own. It is widely considered one of the finest hash-dumping plants in existence. Recognizing its elite status, breeder Mike from Exotic Genetix brought the cut back into his stable to use as a mother for new "Exotic" lines (like Tarts and The Woah).

Dominant Terpenes: Limonene, Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Linalool

Wojo Mints is the definition of "dumping."
In the world of solventless hash (rosin), few names carry as much weight as Wojo. This strain was selected for one purpose: to produce massive, easy-to-wash trichome heads that melt into golden oil. It offers a perfect storm of flavor—combining the doughy sweetness of the Cookie family with a sharp, cooling mint sensation that feels like a breath of fresh air.
History and Lineage: The Hunt for the Golden Pheno
The story of Wojo Mints is a testament to the importance of "Pheno Hunting."
The Seed (Cream D' Mint): Exotic Genetix released Cream D' Mint as a cross of Cookies & Cream (the resin queen) x Mint Chocolate Chip (the flavor king).
The Selection: The team at Wojo Co. (a premier Michigan cannabis brand) popped these seeds and found one specific plant that was different from the rest. It didn't just smell minty; it smelled like an orange creamsicle dipped in gasoline, and it was completely coated in resin.
The Legacy: They named this specific cut Wojo Mints. It became their flagship strain for rosin production. It was so impressive that Exotic Genetix collaborated with Wojo to use this exact cut to breed the Tarts lineup, effectively immortalizing the phenotype.
Terpene Profile: Orange Creamsicle and Gas
Wojo Mints offers a more complex profile than the standard "Mint" strain. It has a distinct tropical sweetness that surprises many smokers.
Dominant Terpenes
Limonene (The Citrus): The dominant terpene. Unlike the sharp lemon of OG, this presents as a sweet, creamy orange or tropical colada note.
Caryophyllene (The Dough): Adds the spicy cookie backbone that anchors the sweetness.
Linalool (The Mint): Provides the signature cool menthol finish that tingles the nose and palate.
Flavor Notes:
The Aroma: It is sophisticated and loud. It smells of orange sherbet, fresh mint leaves, and heavy cream.
The Smoke: Rich and velvety. It tastes of vanilla dough, citrus zest, and a refreshing minty gas on the exhale. It is famously smooth, rarely causing a cough.
Strain Effects: The Zen State
Wojo Mints is a "happy" hybrid. It balances the potency of a heavy Indica with the mental clarity of a minty Sativa.
The Experience
The Smile: The high hits with an immediate wave of positivity. It is impossible to be grumpy on this strain. It creates a "glass half full" mindset.
The Clarity: Unlike heavy OGs that fog the brain, Wojo Mints offers mental sharpness. You feel present and engaged, making it great for gaming or socializing.
The Body: A warm physical relaxation sets in, melting away tension in the neck and shoulders. It is relaxing but not incapacitating.
The Smoothness: The transition from the peak to the comedown is seamless. There is no crash, just a gentle fade into relaxation.
Best For: Depression, social anxiety, afternoon relaxation, creative projects, and nausea relief.
Growing Wojo Mints: The Hash Plant
You generally cannot buy "Wojo Mints" seeds directly; you buy crosses that use it as a mother (like The Woah or Tarts). However, if you grow genetics from this lineage, here is what to expect.
Growth Structure
The Resin: This is the main event. The trichomes are large, sandy, and abundant. They fall off the plant easily during washing, which is why hash makers love it.
The Colors: It is a beautiful plant. It stays bright green for most of the cycle but often develops purple edges and vibrant orange pistils late in flower.
The Structure: It grows Bushy and Stout. It has strong side branching and benefits from scrogging to spread the light.
The Yield: High. It is a heavy producer of dense, golf-ball-sized buds.
The Time: It finishes flowering in 8 to 9 weeks.
Grower’s Tip: This strain was bred for quality over speed. Do not rush the harvest. Let it go the full 63 days (9 weeks) to ensure the trichome heads are fully developed and milky white. If you harvest early, you lose the "Cream" aspect of the terpene profile and are left with just the sharp mint.
Final Verdict: The Hash Maker's Holy Grail
Wojo Mints is a legend of the modern solventless era. It proves that a specific phenotype can become just as famous as the strain it came from. It offers a rare combination of tropical orange flavor, cooling mint, and elite resin production. If you ever see "Wojo Mints" on a menu—especially as Live Rosin—buy it immediately. It is a taste of championship-level cannabis history.
