Aroma/Flavor
The aroma is a bold blend of sour diesel, sweet citrus, and earthy pine with a sharp note of spicy herbs and a hint of floral undertones. On the inhale, notes of zesty lemon, diesel fuel, and creamy cookies coat the palate, followed by a smooth, peppery finish on the exhale that lingers with a touch of pine. The outdoor and greenhouse cultivation preserves a clean, natural terpene expression, delivering a layered flavor profile that evolves from sweet and fruity to gassy and pungent with every puff.
