Berries and Cream
Also known as: Berries and Creme, Berries & Creme, Berries n Cream
Overview
Berries and Cream is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Certified Portland through crossing Exotic Genetix's Grease Monkey and Breeder Steve's Shishkaberry. This strain emerged during the 2010s-2020s wave of dessert-inspired cannabis breeding that prioritized layered confection flavors and appealing visual characteristics. The strain showcases small grape-shaped bright neon green nugs with deep blue undertones, enhanced by thin orange hairs and a generous coating of blue-tinted white crystal trichomes, creating an visually striking appearance that signals its quality and potency.
Expressing an aroma of tart fruit, blackberry thistle, and fresh waffle cone, the flavor takes on additional notes of caramelized sugar. These terpenes orchestrate a symphony of scents reminiscent of red berries and whipped cream, creating an inviting olfactory experience. The strain features a rich terpene profile including Caryophyllene, Limonene, Humulene, Myrcene, and Linalool, with Caryophyllene noted for its potential anti-inflammatory properties, and Limonene known for mood enhancement.
With THC content ranging from 20% to 26%, while CBD levels are typically low, averaging between 0% to 1%, Berries and Cream delivers potent effects. The effects are strong, hitting behind the eyes before radiating throughout the body to provide relaxation and focusing mental clarity. Users report rapid induction of potent cerebral euphoria, followed by deep relaxation that may lead to couch-lock, with significant relaxation and focusing effects that are both immediate and lasting.
