The Story
“Sherbet cream and berry over a pronounced gas.”
The nose is sweet and rich: sherbet cream and berry over a pronounced gas. The effect is balanced-leaning-relaxed — a euphoric head over a comfortable body, versatile and potent.
It's very frosty, and it shows up as a parent of Project 4516. For Gelato with extra gas, #45 is a flavourful cut.
