Sunset Sherbet Strain: The GSC and Pink Panties Hybrid

By · Published · Updated

Sunset Sherbet Strain: Lineage, Effects and Flavour
A note from Steven De Guzman

Leafly lists Sunset Sherbet as a parent of Gelato and Lemon Cherry Gelato, so fans of either will know its dessert-like profile: skunky citrus, sweet berry and candy. Growers describe oblong, fluffy buds with rich trichome cover.

What Sunset Sherbet is

Leafly lists the strain as Sherbert, also known as Sherbet, Sherbert OG, Sunset Sherbet and Sunset Sherbert: an indica-dominant hybrid made by crossing Girl Scout Cookies with Pink Panties. Leafly says it was originally bred by Mr. Sherbinski to carry on the genetics of its GSC parent, and AllBud agrees on the cross and puts it at 85% indica.

Herb adds context on the breeder: Mario Guzman, known as Mr. Sherbinski, teamed up with Jigga, the grower behind Thin Mint Cookies, and together they created both Sunset Sherbet and Gelato.

Look, smell and taste

Growers quoted by Leafly describe oblong, fluffy buds with rich trichome coverage and dark amber hairs over light and dark green leaves. AllBud describes large, dense, light minty green buds with long, twisting orange hairs, a thick layer of frosty trichomes and sticky resin.

Leafly calls the flavour sweet and dessert-like, with skunky citrus, sweet berry and candy, and its reviewers most often pick citrus, sweet and tropical. AllBud describes a sweet, fruity honey aroma and a taste of fruity yogurt and honey with an earthy finish. In samples tested by Leafly Certified labs, caryophyllene leads, followed by limonene and myrcene; the cannabis terpenes guide explains each one.

Effects people report

Leafly describes powerful full-body effects lifted by a jolt of cerebral energy and a carefree state of mind, and rates the effects as mostly calming. Its reviewers most often report feeling relaxed, tingly and happy, and the most common negatives they list are dry mouth, feeling anxious and dry eyes. AllBud describes an immediate cerebral lift that leaves people social and euphoric, followed by a warm, relaxing body buzz.

Leafly notes that it may be overwhelming for people new to cannabis, so start with a small amount. Health Canada's lower-risk cannabis use guidelines advise not driving for at least 6 hours after using cannabis.

How strong is Sunset Sherbet?

Leafly lists 18% THC and rates it above average, and AllBud gives 15% to 19%. Batches differ, so check the THC and CBD numbers on the label.

Similar strains

Leafly lists Gelato and Lemon Cherry Gelato among Sunset Sherbet's offspring. Gelato is its cross with Thin Mint GSC, and Leafly describes Gelato 33 as one of Gelato's phenotypes. On the parent side, Leafly's GSC page names Thin Mint and Platinum GSC among the variations of Girl Scout Cookies.
