Olive-green, grape-shaped nuggets

Olive green and grape-shaped, the nuggets AllBud describes carry a dusting of tiny amber crystals and vivid orange hairs. A Leafly reviewer describes darkish green buds that give off a bubblegum smell once ground.

Bubblegum aroma with a spicy pine finish

AllBud describes a sweet-and-sour, fruity bubblegum taste with a spicy pine finish, and an aroma of fresh earth and sweet spice that turns to fruity bubblegum when the buds are broken apart.

Sweet, flowery and earthy make up the flavour tags on Leafly, and its text describes a sour smell and flavour. One Leafly reviewer says it literally smells like bubblegum and tastes very sweet, another notes a sweet, old-school bubblegum aftertaste, and a third picks out berry-type flavours. In Leafly’s terpene order myrcene is dominant, followed by pinene, then caryophyllene.
