Cripple Creek Cookies
Cripple Creek Cookies
Overview
Cripple Creek Cookies is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Twisty Seeds, developed deep in the mountains of Cripple Creek, Colorado, a town historically famous for its gold mines. This strain represents a cross between Monster Cookies and StarBurst Bubba, combining genetics that trace back through some of cannabis's most celebrated lineages including Girl Scout Cookies and Granddaddy Purple through Monster Cookies, and Pre-98 Bubba Kush and Irene through StarBurst Bubba. The strain exhibits the classic indica-dominant structure with small, pepper-shaped emerald green buds featuring minty undertones, thin orange hairs, and a generous coating of tiny white crystal trichomes. Cripple Creek Cookies is characterized by its sweet and fruity berry vanilla flavor profile, enhanced by hints of sour citrusy candy and a touch of spicy black pepper, while the aroma mirrors these notes with additional accents of peppery spices and fresh earthiness. This strain has earned recognition for its balanced effects that begin with gentle cerebral stimulation before transitioning into deeply relaxing physical sedation that can become sleepy, making it particularly suited for evening or nighttime use.
