Ice Cream
Ice Cream
Also known as: Ice Cream Kush, Ice Cream #1, Ice Cream #3
Overview
The Ice Cream cannabis strain was created by crossing three veritable legends in the cannabis scene—White Widow, Bubble Gum, and an old-school Cali Skunk. Bred by the team at Paradise Seeds, a renowned Dutch seed company, the result is a strain with a high THC content and a sweet, creamy taste. Ice Cream has won multiple awards and cannabis cups, including 2nd prize in the hydro category at the 2008 Highlife Cup. This indica-dominant hybrid is renowned for its potent effects, creamy-sweet taste, and rewarding returns. Ice Cream features 60% indica genetics and 40% sativa. The buds display a beautiful blend of green and purple, which is not only eye-catching but also indicative of the strain's genetic richness. A heavy coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty look, suggesting a high cannabinoid content and a sticky, resinous texture. Amber-colored hairs visually enhance the buds' overall appeal and hint at the strain's maturity and potency. Its flavour is often described as a combination of vanilla and sugar, with hints of Skunk and pine.
