Jack Frost

Jack Frost

Common Names: Golden Teacher, Golden Halo

About

Jack Frost is a striking albino hybrid of Psilocybe cubensis, often regarded as one of the most beautiful and potent leucistic strains available. This variant, associated with both Golden Teacher lineage and Albino Penis Envy (APE) ancestry, produces fruits with snow-white caps, glacial stems, and heavy blue bruising—earning its frosty name. The experience is known for being visually bright, mentally crystalline, and spiritually immersive, making it popular among psychonauts seeking clarity, aesthetic beauty, and depth.

History

Jack Frost was originally bred by crossing Albino Penis Envy with True Albino Teacher, combining the potency and density of APE with the wisdom and stability of Golden Teacher. The result was a visually stunning, slow-growing strain that became a cult favorite. Though it is now cultivated widely under several expressions, most Jack Frost variants retain intense visuals, a gentle but powerful introspective tone, and a cool, crystalline energy.
