Last Chance to Buy

We’ve quite the bumper crop of last-chance strains this time around. With the constant and relentless release schedule over the past few years, our catalogue has grown into a bit of a beast. As much as we would love to keep every single strain forever, it's simply not possible, so it's time for a bit of housekeeping.
A handful of strains will be bowing out of the catalogue in early 2026, and we want to give everyone a fair heads-up. This is not a case of us retiring anything for the sake of it. Every strain we remove has earned its place in Mephistory, but as we refine genetics, improve lines, and make space for new projects, some older varieties naturally need to step aside.
Think of it less as a funeral and more as a fond farewell tour. It is one last chance to grab these legends before they head off into the sunset. If you have a personal favourite in the mix, now is the perfect time to give it a loving send-off while stocks last.
All of our last chance strains will be priced at 50% off until the end of our Black Friday sale, before dropping to 35% until the 8th of January, when they leave the catalogue.

75/25
Over the years, she built up a bit of a reputation for herself. Not in a dramatic way, more in the slow-burn fashion of something people mention once, then twice, then suddenly everyone is asking where on earth they can get hold of her. Demand got so daft that she ended up coming back for a Limited Edition run, joined by her sister from the same line. Both of them vanished quicker than biscuits at a family gathering where someone has mistakenly announced “help yourselves”.

Then we had the fun of navigating the naming. Anyone who has dealt with strain names knows it can feel like trying to cross a room full of copyright mousetraps in the dark. After a spot of legal fuss around a certain unnamed strain, we were politely advised that some of our playful nods to the nation’s favourite snacks may have been dunked in our brew a little too long. So we took the hint. No drama, no reinvention, just a quick name switcheroo. And so she returns as Dodgy Jammers, still very much herself, only now far more likely to keep the unscrupulous, underworked and overpaid corporate lawyers out of our biscuit tin.
Her step into the Reserva range was less a grand promotion and more a case of letting her sit where she had already plonked herself. Folks kept asking when she was coming back, and it became clear she had no intention of fading into the background. It’s a Doctor Who-style reinvention, still recognisable, still a cheeky chappie at heart, and still perfectly capable of stealing the spotlight without looking like she tried.
Dodgy Jammers returns exactly as she ought to. Fun, sticky and sweet in all the right places. A proper modern classic, the sort you can’t help going back to, even if you’re sat there like a guilty toddler, crumbs everywhere, insisting it wasn’t you who ate the last one.

Mephisto's Grape Crush
Genetic Heritage
Grape Crinkle x Sundae Thumper

60/40
Consider our arm fully twisted with this one. Grape Crush began life as the free strain bundled with our Sundae Thumper drop in November 2023. She was never meant to steal the show, but from the first grows it was clear she had other plans. Word spread fast, jars emptied faster, and before long, what felt like roving bands of the Grape Crush Gang were circling on Discord, firmly reminding us that she deserved a proper return.
We had always intended to give her a full outing, so in 2024, she returned as a Limited Edition for a focused one-off run. We made her widely available for those who missed her on the Sundae Thumper drop, then wrapped things up neatly in early 2025 alongside the other Iced ‘n’ Baked and Sundae Thumper crossed Limited Editions. Grape Crush just seemed to carry the same momentum she had from that very first release, and the train kept rolling. While we expect a bit of noise whenever a strain leaves the catalogue, the chorus of boos and hisses when we said We don’t think Grape Crush is coming back was on a different level entirely.

So, before the Grape Crush Gang arm themselves with pitchforks and hangman’s nooses, she is back as a proud member of our Reserva line. Grape Crush is here to stay in all her glory, preserved for those who loved her the first time around and ready for those who missed their shot. A true community-driven return and one we are very happy to honour.
