Montana doesn’t play around when it comes to sunsets. Whether you’re perched on the Rimrocks, stretched out at your campsite, or just catching that soft orange glow from your front porch in Billings, there’s something sacred about golden hour around here.

It’s that moment when everything slows down. The sky turns wild with color. The day exhales. And if you’re looking to deepen that sense of calm and connection, a little cannabis can be the perfect companion.

At Stink Blossom, we believe cannabis isn’t just about lighting up—it’s about tuning in. So we put together a guide to the best cannabis for evenings and sunset sessions. Whether you’re winding down solo, snapping sunset pics, or enjoying a golden hour hang with friends, here are our top cannabis strains for relaxation—plus some easy tips for making those Montana sunsets even more magical.

1. Purple Punch – The Classic Wind-Down

You can’t go wrong with this iconic indica. Known for its sweet berry flavor and body-melting calm, Purple Punch is the strain equivalent of wrapping yourself in a cozy blanket as the sky turns pink.

Perfect for:

  • Watching the sunset from the back deck 
  • Easing into an early night 
  • Quiet reflection or journaling 

2. Lemon OG Haze – Chill With a Creative Spark

If you like your sunsets with a side of creativity, Lemon OG Haze brings just the right balance of relaxation and inspiration. It’s a gentle hybrid that keeps you lifted without pushing you over the edge.

Perfect for:

  • Taking sunset photos 
  • Playing music or painting outdoors 
  • Kicking back at a scenic overlook 

3. Alien Rift – Stargazer’s Favorite

Planning to stay out after the sun dips? Alien Rift is your go-to for easing into nighttime. It’s deeply relaxing, earthy, and great for letting go of the day.

Perfect for:

  • Laying out under the stars 
  • Ending a long day of hiking or exploring 
  • Meditative moments by the fire 

4. Truff Aloha – For Obvious Reasons

Besides being basically made for the occasion by name alone, Truff Aloha is a balanced hybrid with mood-lifting effects and a smooth, fruity flavor. It’s ideal for shared golden-hour hangs.

Perfect for:

  • Group hangouts at Riverfront Park or Norm’s Island 
  • Slow porch conversations 
  • Pairing with an infused lemonade or iced tea 

Tips for the Ultimate Cannabis Sunset Session

Pick your spot:

  • The Rimrocks offer panoramic views of Billings and beyond 
  • Lake Elmo gives you the perfect lakeside glow 
  • Your own backyard works just fine too, especially with the right playlist 

Pack smart:

  • Choose pre-rolls or easy-to-dose edibles 
  • Bring layers—it cools down fast once the sun dips 
  • Don’t forget your water and camera (or sketchbook!) 

Be present:
Sunsets are short and sweet. Try to keep the phone tucked away unless you’re capturing the moment. Let the cannabis slow you down just enough to soak it all in.
