Upon grinding, aromas intensify, revealing notes of orange zest, evergreen, and diesel, with minty or cookie-like undertones depending on the specific phenotype. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, offering a creamy inhale with citrus and minty sensations, a subtly spicy mid-palate, and a lingering vanilla cookie and gas finish.
