The buds are generously covered in white trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance.
Aroma & Flavor

Nuanced undertones of spice and herbal sweetness, contributed by Beta-Caryophyllene and Linalool, add depth. The flavor mirrors the aroma, with an initial crisp, citrus-driven taste followed by pine and herbal notes, culminating in a spicy-sweet finish with peppery accents.
