Appearance

The calyx-to-leaf ratio is generally favorable, leading to clean, showy buds.
Aroma and Flavor
True to its name, Blackberry Marmalade offers a layered aroma and flavor profile. Initial notes of ripe blackberry and blackcurrant blend with sweet, zesty citrus reminiscent of orange marmalade. Upon closer inspection, hints of candied peel, floral violet, and a subtle earthy base emerge. The flavor mirrors this complexity, with a sweet, jammy character on the exhale complemented by a mild peppery warmth.

Users often report feeling creative and energetic, yet relaxed, making it a versatile option for both daytime and evening use depending on the dose and context.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
The terpene profile is anchored by myrcene and caryophyllene, contributing to the berry and peppery notes, and accented by limonene and pinene for citrus and pine characteristics. Minor terpenes like linalool add floral nuances. Cannabinoid content is generally THC-dominant, with levels typically ranging from 18-24% THC and less than 1% CBD. Minor cannabinoids like CBG may also be present.
