About

Golden Teacher Alice is a creative and potent variant of the Psilocybe cubensis Golden Teacher strain, celebrated for its deeply immersive, visual-heavy trips that many users compare to a "Wonderland-like" experience—hence the nickname "Alice". It is favored for its ability to induce powerful synesthesia, vibrant visuals, and introspective insights without overwhelming physical discomfort.

History

The origin of the "Alice" variant is shrouded in mystery, but it has developed a reputation in underground cultivation communities for delivering a dreamlike and fantasy-tinged psychedelic journey. Inspired by the literary theme of "Alice in Wonderland", this strain has gained attention for its creative and cognitive-enhancing effects, making it a favorite among artists, musicians, and psychonauts seeking emotional and visual exploration.

Though not as widely distributed as standard Golden Teacher, it has a dedicated following due to its unique trip profile and reliable potency.
