Cherry MAC

The 14 g and 28 g Cherry MAC is listed as a sativa. The name belongs to a cross of Cherry Gelato and MAC #1, which AllBud also knows as Cherry Miracle Alien Cookies.

Cherry Gelato crossed with MAC #1

Leafly gives the parents as Cherry Gelato and Mac 1, lists Cherry MAC Pie as another name, and names Kush Rush as the breeder in its description. In Leafly’s description the balance is even, 50% sativa to 50% indica, and AllBud’s entry also reads hybrid, an even 50/50 mix of sativa and indica. Our type-label guide looks at what sativa, hybrid and indica tags really mean.

Dark green, purple and orange

Leafly describes frosty, fluffy buds in dark green tones with purple and orange hues. AllBud describes forest green, grape-shaped nugs with thin orange hairs and dark leaves, coated in chunky white trichomes.

Sweet cherry, a nutty cookie note and citrus

AllBud describes a flavour that pairs sweet cherry fruitiness with a nutty cookie note. The aroma is similar, with a spicy, earthy cookie overtone, juicy cherries and sour citrus. Its flavour tags are berry, cherry, citrus, flowery, fruity, nutty, sour and sweet.

Leafly’s top flavour tags are diesel, berry and sweet, and its description calls the strain fruity and floral, with cherry and rose flavours and hints of lavender and citrus. Limonene is the dominant terpene in that description, and our limonene guide covers the citrus terpene.

The THC range and the reported giggles

Leafly’s description gives THC as 17% with 1% CBG. AllBud gives an average THC of 24% to 27%.

AllBud says the high hits immediately, with a cerebral burst of euphoria and lively energy, leaving people lifted and giddy, with fits of giggles at times. Its users tag euphoria, happy and uplifting. One Leafly reviewer tags euphoric, happy and talkative, and the description lists giggly among the feelings customers report.
