Ice Cream Mintz
Also known as: Ice Cream Mints, ICM, Cream Mintz
Overview
Ice Cream Mintz is a hybrid strain developed by Seed Junky Genetics, created by crossing Ice Cream Cake and Kush Mints. This strain emerged from a collaboration between Cookies and Seed Junky, representing the genetic lineage of Wedding Cake and Gelato 33. As an indica-dominant hybrid, Ice Cream Mintz derives its indica effects from the Gelato and Triangle Kush deep in its genetic heritage. The strain has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community for its impressive potency and distinctive flavor profile.
The strain exhibits large golf-ball flowers with exaggerated node spacing, and can fade to a deep, dark purple. Ice Cream Mintz features dense, dark green buds covered in trichomes, giving it a frosty appearance with purple accents. The leaves are a vibrant shade of green with hints of purple, and the pistils are a rusty orange color. The strain has an extremely musky, gassy smell like Wedding Cake, a light citrus, floral, lemony scent like Gelato #33, and a subtle spicy/peppery/herbal undertone. Its flavor is characterized by a sweet, creamy essence, prominently featuring vanilla and mint, elegantly fused with subtler hints of fruits.
