Kush Cake (AAA)

History & Genetics

Kush Cake is a classic OG strain – it barely gets more like cannabis royalty than this petrol-splashed earthy favorite. The smell, the feeling of happy upliftment, and the unique cocktail of herb, fruit, dessert, and chem-flavored terpenes make this one a masterclass in kicking back.

Bred from Cherry Pie and Girl Scout Cookies, Kush Cake grows in sticky buds that require skilled cultivation to maximize the THC output. The UK-based grower Pintail Gardens bred this strain.

Appearance, Aroma, & Flavor

The buds are dense and heavy, purple-tinted on a landscape of dark green. The white crystal trichomes are so plentiful they look like a layer of soft snow. Its pointy green buds smell of earth and mint, with other tastes like vanilla and lemon peeking through. For athletes and even people who casually work out, this is a great recovery strain that packs an earthy, minty punch on the side for those that enjoy the tastier things.

The overall flavor is a radical mixture of textures and plants that blend together in one smooth finish like a tiny atmosphere of earth and herbs. The aroma wreaks (delightfully) of petrol, earth, pine, and vanilla. The skunk is incredibly prominent with a petrol finish, owing to the terpene profile, which Pintail bred for power. The dominant flavors are Limonene, Beta-Caryophyllene, Linalool, and Beta-Myrcene.

Effects

The effects range from mentally uplifting to physically soothing. Depression, anxiety, and stress are no match for a powerhouse like Kush Cake. The strain is ideal for those that want to feel calm and happy in their stressed-out, Type A personality lives. Kush Cake is a fantastic pairing with your relaxing pastimes like watching movies, fishing, knitting, or painting. You can visit a spa on Kush Cake. It's even perfect for doing absolutely nothing.

On Kush Cake, you can expect euphoric relaxation with a strong cerebral uplift. Athletes love the strain because in addition to its mental effects, it has a strong relaxing effect on sore muscles. Post-workout, a dose of Kush Cake can do wonders for recovery, relieving tightness and pain in muscles that have been working harder than they're used to. This strain puts a smile on its user's faces, giving them feelings of creativity and a do-nothing bliss that's hard to come by in the busy week.
