Appearance

Its buds are often dense, conical, and heavily coated in resin, with pistils ranging from peach to tangerine.

A subtle floral scent, reminiscent of rose petals, is often present, sometimes accompanied by a creamy vanilla note. Some variations may also exhibit faint hints of champagne or white wine.
<Flavor
The flavor profile closely mirrors the aroma, starting with a prominent lemon-lime and sugared berry taste on the inhale. The mid-palate can introduce creamy sherbet and vanilla notes, with a delicate floral lift. The exhale leaves a lingering sweet-tart finish, occasionally with a subtle mineral or champagne quality.
