What is Toque?

Toque is an F8 'Nerds' selection isolated from Tidal Wave, with a Canadian-coined name (after the wool hat). It is one of the best-documented modern high-potency isolates, testing around 21 mg/g total alkaloids in 2024 and ~29 mg/g in 2025 Cup data.

Potency — measured vs. reported

Lab-measured: ~21 mg/g (2024) → ~29 mg/g (2025) total alkaloids.

Reliable lab data exists for only a handful of strains. We separate lab-measured values from community claims and don't inflate — growing conditions affect potency more than the strain name.
