Acapulco gold
Acapulco Gold is a golden-leafed ''Cannabis sativa'' strain originally from the Acapulco area of southwest Mexico. Many of the earliest strains were grown as far south as Colombia, where it was referred to as Colombian Gold, but Acapulco Gold is the commercial name that has stuck the most.
==History==
The ''Oxford English Dictionary'' quotes an early usage of the term from a 1965 newsletter, in which it was described it as "a special grade of pot growing only in the vicinity of Acapulco. The color is either brownish gold or a mixture of gold and green. This grade has a potency surpassed by few of the green varieties and usually comes at slightly higher prices or in short weights."〔"Acapulco." ''(Oxford English Dictionary Online )'', Oxford University Press, via oed.com. (Subscription required). Retrieved on 2007-10-01.〕 According to one linguistics book, "The ''gold'' in this phrase originally described the golden hue of the leaves on the cannabis plant, but later came to refer both to the high quality of the cannabis and to the especially high price it commanded." ''Acapulco'' by itself can be used as a synonym for cannabis, generally referring to a high-grade type like Acapulco gold.〔〔 The similarly named ''Acapulco red'', refers to a reddish-brown cannabis grown near Acapulco, Mexico with reddish tops on the plants.〔
