- Super Boof is a sweet cherry-and-citrus hybrid with a sharp, peppery edge — think dark cherry and orange up front, a sour-gassy funk underneath. We currently carry it as Leal flower in 7g and 28g on our Richmond Hill shelf.
- It's a big deal for a reason: Super Boof was named Leafly's 2024 Strain of the Year, which is a large part of why it's been on everyone's menu and in everyone's search bar since.
- Its lineage is Black Cherry Punch crossed with The Original Z — a cultivar from the modern Cookies-and-Zkittlez dessert family — which is exactly why it reads cherry-sweet with a gassy backbone.
- "Balanced, uplifting-yet-easygoing" describes its reputation, not a promised effect. How any strain lands is individual and driven by the cannabinoids and terpenes in that specific batch — nothing here is a health or dosing claim.
- Stock changes daily — check the live menu to confirm it's on the shelf, or ask the team for a close cousin.
Every so often a strain breaks out of the menu and into the conversation. Super Boof is that strain right now. It picked up Leafly's 2024 Strain of the Year title, and ever since it's been one of those names people walk in and ask for directly. The good news if you're one of them: we carry it as Leal flower on our Richmond Hill shelf, in both a 7g and a 28g size. This guide is a plain-language tour of what it actually is.
We'll hold to one ground rule throughout, the same one we keep on every strain guide, like our Lemon Cherry Gelato writeup: we describe aroma, flavor, and lineage — the things you can smell in the jar and read on a label — not how it'll make you feel. Effects are individual, they shift batch to batch and person to person, and anyone promising you a specific one is guessing.
What is Super Boof — and why all the hype?
Super Boof is a modern hybrid that went from insider favorite to household name on the strength of its flavor and its look — frosty, colorful buds that photograph well and a nose that stands out in a lineup. The turning point was Leafly naming it its 2024 Strain of the Year, a title that reliably sends a strain to the top of menus and search bars. That's why you're seeing it everywhere now: it earned a genuine spotlight, not just a marketing push.
The funny name is part of the charm and, frankly, part of why it's sticky. Don't read anything into it — "Super Boof" is cannabis-culture branding, not a description of strength or effect. Like most buzzy modern strains, its reputation spread on smell, shelf appeal, and word of mouth, which is exactly the right way to think about it: as a flavor and an aroma, not a promise.
What does Super Boof taste and smell like?
This is where it earns the attention. The signature nose is dark, sweet cherry and bright citrus — ripe black cherry and orange-peel zest leading the way — with a sharp, sour-gassy funk and a peppery spice underneath that keeps the sweetness honest. It's fruity without tipping into candy: more cherry-cola-and-citrus-rind than straight sugar, with a savory, almost sour edge that fans love.
Those flavors aren't added — they come from the plant's own aromatic oils, called terpenes. Super Boof is commonly described as running on a blend of limonene (the bright citrus note), caryophyllene (the peppery, gassy warmth), and myrcene (an earthy, fruity depth). We go deeper in our terpene explainer and the full myrcene, limonene and caryophyllene breakdown, but the short version: the terpene percentages printed on a licensed label tell you what's actually in that jar, since the mix shifts from harvest to harvest.
Where does the Super Boof strain come from?
It's a genuinely modern cross. Super Boof is generally credited as Black Cherry Punch crossed with The Original Z — the latter a cultivar from the broader Cookies-and-Zkittlez dessert lineage. That family tree explains the flavor almost perfectly: the Black Cherry Punch parent brings the dark-cherry sweetness, and the Zkittlez-leaning side layers in the fruity, gassy funk that gives Super Boof its edge.
That also explains the buzz. Super Boof belongs to a recent chapter of cannabis breeding, the same dessert-and-fruit wave that produced strains like Lemon Cherry Gelato and the Cookies-family hybrids. It reads very differently from the decades-old classics — the Sour Diesels and OG Kushes — because it was bred, recently, for exactly this kind of loud, fruity flavor.
Is Super Boof an indica or a sativa?
It's usually labeled a balanced hybrid, and it carries a reputation for an uplifting-yet-easygoing character — the kind of profile people reach for when they don't want to be pinned to the couch or wired to the ceiling. But it's worth being clear about what that label does and doesn't mean. As we explain in why indica, sativa and hybrid labels are shakier than they look, those words are a rough shorthand — they don't reliably predict how a strain will affect a given person.
"Balanced hybrid" here describes its reputation and how it's commonly categorized, not a guaranteed experience. What you'll actually notice is shaped by the full mix of cannabinoids and terpenes in the batch you buy, your own tolerance, how much you use, and the format. Read the label, start low if you're unsure, and treat the hybrid tag as a loose hint rather than a promise.
How do people like to enjoy Super Boof?
This is where reputation, not medical claims, comes in. Because it's a bright, flavor-forward hybrid, people commonly reach for it for an easygoing social hang or a relaxed afternoon — the kind of session where the cherry-citrus flavor is half the fun and nobody wants to be flattened. Its fruity nose makes it a friendly pick to share, including with people who don't love the heavy gas-and-funk profiles. As always, how it lands is individual.
If you want to build a little around it, a few in-stock things on our shelf pair naturally with that sweet, social, cherry-citrus vibe (names only — check the live menu for what's actually in stock today, since it changes daily):
- Very Cherry x Tropicana Cherries (Lost Farm, 100mg live rosin gummies) — a cherry-and-citrus edible that echoes Super Boof's whole flavor arc, for anyone who'd rather not inhale.
- Lemonade (High Peaks, single-serve) — a bright citrus THC beverage with the milligrams right on the can, an easy measured pour for a social afternoon.
- Lemon Cherry Gelato pre-rolls (Budjet, 1g) — if you'd rather not grind or roll, a ready-to-go option in the same sweet cherry-citrus family (see its own guide).
How can you buy Super Boof at Cannabis Cowboy?
A couple of ways were in stock as of early October 2026 (a menu changes daily — always check the live menu before you come in):
- Leal — Super Boof flower, 7g and 28g. The strain in its purest form: whole buds you can grind and roll yourself, so you get the full cherry-citrus-and-gas nose straight from the jar. The 7g is a comfortable amount to get to know it; the 28g is for when you already know you like it.
- MFNY — Super Boof live resin badder (concentrate). The same strain in concentrate form — a far more potent format for experienced consumers with the right gear. Concentrates are a big step up in strength from flower, so treat them accordingly.
If Super Boof has sold out or you're after something adjacent, the shelf usually has other fruity, cherry-forward hybrids worth a look — the team can point you to a close cousin in the same sweet, gassy-fruit family. It all rotates, so the live menu is the only real-time source of truth.
Where can you enjoy it in Queens?
Here's the part people get wrong: public consumption of cannabis is illegal in New York — sidewalks, the subway, the parks, and the beach included. Super Boof isn't something you spark on a Forest Park bench; it's something you buy at a licensed shop and enjoy afterward in a legal private setting, like your own home. And never consume before or while driving or biking — if cannabis is part of your plans, someone sober is behind the wheel.
How do you shop it at the Richmond Hill counter?
Come in with a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID showing you're 21 or older — that's the only requirement, since adult-use cannabis is legal in New York and no medical card is needed. Cannabis Cowboy is a licensed New York dispensary (NY OCM-RETL-24-000068) on Jamaica Avenue in Richmond Hill, serving Ozone Park and the surrounding neighborhoods.
- Tell the team the vibe, not just a name. If you liked a sweet, fruity, cherry-gas hybrid before, say so — they can match the aroma family even when Super Boof has sold out.
- The menu price is the final price. New York's 13% cannabis tax is already built into what you see, so there's no surprise math at the register.
- Stock rotates daily. Super Boof was on the shelf as of early October 2026, but the fastest way to know what's available today is the live menu.
