The buds are notably resinous, covered in a generous coating of trichomes that give them a frosty, crystal-like appearance indicative of their potency. This visual appeal is matched by the strain's complex aromatic profile, which delivers a distinctive cheese-like scent with sweet undertones reminiscent of its dessert namesake.
