Overview
Mint Chocolate Chip is a perfectly balanced 50/50 hybrid strain developed by Exotic Genetix through crossing SinMint Cookies (also known as Mystery Cookies) with Green Ribbon BX. This award-winning cultivar won first place in the flower category at the 2022 Unicorn Cup and the Hybrid Flower Category at the 2024 Karma Cup. The strain is renowned for its unique flavor profile that lives up to its name, offering genuine mint chocolate chip ice cream aromas and flavors with nutty, earthy undertones. The dense, resin-laden buds display a distinctive appearance with olive-green nugs, dark inner leaves, and abundant orange pistils covered in crystalline trichomes. Mint Chocolate Chip represents sophisticated modern cannabis breeding, combining the minty sweetness of SinMint Cookies with the stability and vigor of Green Ribbon BX. The strain has gained recognition for its complex terpene profile dominated by limonene, myrcene, and caryophyllene, contributing both to its distinctive sensory experience and therapeutic potential. This cultivar exemplifies the entourage effect, where cannabinoids and terpenes work synergistically to produce balanced effects suitable for both daytime and evening use.
