Gelato #41

Rating: 6.1/10

Verdict

Gelato #41 by Hollandse-Hoogte is has a compact bud structure looks decent and the high delivers a pleasant, highly functional daytime buzz with good longevity, the overall experience is held back by dry flower, an uneven burn, and a fairly boring, slightly harsh flavour profile. At €13 a gram, the quality simply does not match the cost.

Gelato #41: WeedViewer Review

[{"content":"Gelato #41 (popularly known as \"Bacio Gelato\") is an indica dominant hybrid cannabis strain that originated in the San Francisco Bay Area in California. It was created by the renowned breeding collective Cookie Fam, specifically developed by breeder Mario Guzman (founder of Sherbinski). The strain is a specific phenotype selected from a direct cross of Sunset Sherbert and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies. It belongs to the broader \"Gelato\" genetic family, which was famously released as numbered phenotypes during a cultivation hunt, number 41 was selected and preserved for its unique physical characteristics and high cannabinoid ceiling.","heading":"About"},{"content":"You can see a clean hand trim job. The colours are nice, showing off dark green spots that are contrasted by a very visible, frosty white layer of trichomes. Size wise the bag contains mostly small to medium pieces, but they are properly compact. The biggest drawback here is the moisture content. The buds feel pretty dry to the touch, and they lack that sticky, resinous texture you usually look for in fresh flower.","heading":"Visual"},{"content":"The smell profile is clean, but it is on the milder side. When you first open the packaging, the scent intensity sits somewhere between soft and medium. The dominant notes are distinctly herbal, spicy, and earthy, skipping the sweeter, dessert-like terpenes. Putting the flower through a grinder doesn't seem to wake the profile up or release hidden layers, the aroma stays almost exactly the same as it did before grinding.","heading":"Aroma"},{"content":"On the inhale, the herbal and spicy notes are present but very faint. The flavour becomes more noticeable on the exhale, where the earthiness and spice linger slightly on the palate. However, the translation from how the flower smells to how it actually tastes is just poor to decent. Because it lacks any distinct sweet or gassy notes, it ends up tasting somewhat boring, even though the subtle spicy aftertaste hangs around for a short while after smoking.","heading":"Flavour"},{"content":"It features a slow onset. It gradually builds into a very manageable, light head high combined with a mild body relaxation. It never crosses the line into a heavy, sedating couch lock. This makes it a functional option that allows you to stay somewhat focused and relaxed at the same time. The duration is quite good, providing a steady buzz for a solid 3 to 4 hours before tapering off into a very smooth, gradual comedown.","heading":"Effects"},{"content":"The burn consistency is fairly uneven you might find yourself correcting a side burn. The ash produced is a mixed light grey and dark grey. In terms of smoothness it also delivers a slightly harsh feel on the throat, which makes the overall smoking experience less comfortable than it could be.","heading":"Burn Quality"}]
