It’s a common adage that “sequels are never as good as the original.” Sometimes in moves, that’s painfully true. (Taken 2 and 3? But, why?) In the cannabis space, a sequel more often than not rivals its predecessor. If the Sunset Sherbet strain is an origin story, the Gelato strain is the next chapter in a brilliant genetic legacy.
The Gelato strain is another creation from that notorious Cookies Fam, who can’t stop directing cannabis hits. The strains they create in California make major waves in recreational and medical markets across the country. In Washington, it’s hard to walk into any top-end pot shop without finding their fingerprint over the entire menu. Gelato’s small rocky flowers with a bright colorway (rivaling Jordan 1’s Court Purple’s) always stand out.
Sunset Sherbet crossed with Thin Mint GSC created a one-of-a-kind terpene profile that puts on an aromatic display. Sweet mint and earthy notes swirl together into something reminiscent of a creamy dessert atop an ice cream cone. It also satiates every indica lovers needs with a gleeful relaxing high. The Gelato strain also produces many popular phenotypes that have slight variations on the original. For example, #33 has a diesel tinge to it while #42 has some fruity notes attached.
Many different brands grow a great Gelato, so getting your hands on some shouldn’t be too much of an issue.
