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
“Skunky funk and pine over a sweet, herbal base.”
The nose is earthy and sweet: skunky funk and pine over a sweet, herbal base. The effect is balanced and strong — a euphoric head with a relaxing body, potent and well-rounded.
It's dense, very frosty and dependable, a 90s Amsterdam staple. For a frost-caked, balanced classic, Great White Shark endures.
