Gelato

A strain that is as tasty as it sounds, Gelato has an earthy, sweet berry flavor on the inhale, with a burst of citrus on the exhale. The fruity flavors of this strain are balanced perfectly with subtle notes of creaminess, and the tastes blend together as if you were enjoying the popular dessert Gelato itself.

Lovers of the Gelato strain have its dominant terpene Caryophyllene to thank for its delicious flavor profile. There is a reason why this popular strain has garnered so much praise, earning multiple Emerald Cups and Cannabis Cups.

Gelato is a heavy-hitting variety with a slight indica dominance, but with a nice balance of inspiring and uplifting sativa. Also called Larry Bird, Gelato has been known to cause feelings of euphoria with deep relaxation. Consumers report that the flavorful Gelato strain is great for pain relief, while still feeling mentally stimulated, with the ability to be productive.

Gelato is a cross between two unique phenotypes: Thin Mint GSC and Sherbert, making it a connoisseur favorite in many dispensaries and great for helping with stress and pain relief. When growing Gelato, the flowers form an attractive dark purple color, and develop fire-orange hairs that are eventually surrounded by frosty white crystals, also called trichomes.

Clocking in at an average THC content of 17%, Gelato offers a solid combination of enough THC to feel relief, but not too much where it becomes overwhelming after consumption. In fact, many newbie consumers might feel this cultivar hits harder than its THC content indicates, so it is recommended that Gelato is approached with responsibility in mind.

Consumers looking to treat symptoms of stress, depression, and pain may find the Gelato strain to be beneficial to alleviate these symptoms. Consumers report Gelato may help with Anxiety, PTSD, and ADD/ ADHD. Some of the negatives associated with the consumption of the Gelato strain are that overconsumption can lead to dry mouth, dry eyes, and dizziness.
