Affogato
Affogato
Overview
Affogato is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created by Maven Genetics as a cross between Purple Chai and Sunset Sherbet. The strain features strong notes of rich coffee and dark chocolate experienced upon breaking these nugs apart, with a flavor palette reminiscent of the classic Italian dessert with warmth and spice from Purple Chai complemented by a smooth, creamy finish. However, some sources also reference a different version made from a genetic cross between Ice Cream Cake and White Truffle, classified as 40% sativa and 60% indica. Additionally, Pacific Northwest Roots offers a version bred from Razcreamcake and Koffee F5, described as an indica-dominant hybrid that stacks dessert-level flavor atop a powerful, high THC backbone. Root Origin Seed Co also produces an Affogato variant that can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse with a flowering time of approximately 70 days. The strain's appearance typically features dense, sticky and sweet buds, and users report an aromatic profile described as an all-out sensory ambush with potent coffee and creamy vanilla rolling out first, grounded by an earthy sweetness, making grow spaces smell like an Italian café.
