Double Black Cookies
Also known as: DBC
Double Black Cookies Strain Overview
Double Black Cookies is a hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of two popular strains: Girl Scout Cookies and Blackberry Kush. This combination creates a balanced hybrid that inherits desirable traits from both parent strains, resulting in a plant known for its complex flavor profile and potent effects. The strain emerged in the mid-2010s as breeders sought to combine the cerebral effects of Girl Scout Cookies with the physical relaxation of Blackberry Kush.
Visually, Double Black Cookies typically displays dense, resinous buds with a deep green coloration often accented by purple and blue hues inherited from its Blackberry Kush lineage. The flowers are usually covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature vibrant orange pistils. The strain's name references both its genetic lineage and its dark, cookie-like appearance when properly cultivated.
Double Black Cookies is recognized for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its versatile effects and complex terpene profile. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities.
