Sensory data is a curated, hand-mapped seed; detail completeness is high. Identity confidence is medium. The diagram is this strain's own sensory radar, not a photo. Batch quality still depends on grower, freshness and storage — none of which is captured here.
Background
The story
“Cheese and sour funk over a sweet grape-berry base.”
The nose is unusual and loud: cheese and sour funk over a sweet grape-berry base. The effect is balanced and relaxing — a euphoric head easing into a comfortable body, versatile across the day.
It's frosty and flavour-forward, a savoury-sweet oddity. For cheese-and-grape character, Cheese Quake is a distinctive pick.
