Frozen Custard by Greenpoint Seeds
Unknown
Frozen Custard is an indica-dominant strain developed by Greenpoint Seeds, noted for its unique flavor profile and relaxing effects. Emerging from the Northeast cannabis scene in the early 2010s, it represents a blend of modern breeding and a respect for traditional indica genetics.
Appearance
Frozen Custard buds are characterized by their dense, chunky structure, generously coated in frosty trichomes that give them an almost icy appearance. The coloration is primarily deep forest green, often accented with purple hues that become more pronounced in cooler temperatures. Small orange pistils add visual contrast.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Frozen Custard is a complex fusion of sweet, creamy notes, reminiscent of vanilla custard, with underlying nutty undertones. This dessert-like scent is complemented by hints of citrus and spice. Users often report a flavor profile that mirrors the aroma, offering a sweet, fruity, and spicy taste experience.
Effects
This indica-dominant strain delivers a deeply relaxing experience that typically begins with a cerebral euphoria before settling into a full-body calm. The effects are often described as slow-building, promoting a sense of tranquility and ease. While primarily indica, some users report a cerebral component early in the experience.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Frozen Custard typically contains THC levels ranging from 20% to 28%, with low CBD content (around 0.2% to 0.5%). Key terpenes identified include Caryophyllene, which contributes spicy notes, Limonene for citrus nuances, and Myrcene, offering earthy tones. These compounds are believed to contribute to the strain's distinct aroma, flavor, and effects.
Origins & Lineage
Developed in the Northeast United States, Frozen Custard by Greenpoint Seeds was bred with a focus on marrying potent genetics with unique flavors, while maintaining a strong indica heritage. The breeding process involved selective backcrossing with established indica varieties, aiming for consistency and a predominantly indica genetic makeup, reportedly over 80% indica ancestry.
