Initial Thoughts
They say that when someone is going overboard, but gets everything they want simultaneously, they are “having their cake and eating it too.” Now cannabis enthusiasts in DC can have a similar level of pleasure with this batch of Ice Cream Cake from DC i-71 storefront dispensary, Elevated Lounge. That’s because not only is it some absolute fire and cultivated to near perfection, it’s also a hybrid with fantastically joyful mood enhancing qualities and a hugely euphoric body buzz to boot.
Appearance
These mega frosty buds are dense, light green, and purple.
Status
Beginning to cure.
Aroma
Creamy, sweet, skunky, and bready with earthy kush-like hues.
Flavor
Smooth and delectably mouthwatering with a sweet, creamy, skunky, and bready taste all wrapped up into one.
Lineage
The Ice Cream Cake strain is a cross of Wedding Cake and Gelato 33 that runs indica dominant.
Effects
Incredibly potent with effects that are both uplifting in overall mood and euphoric with a warm glow created across the entirety of one’s body. It can be calming and relaxing, but also allows you enough energy to remain upright and active. Though not great for focus or drive, it quelled my digestive issues so well that it was an aid to my productivity, even during daylight hours.
Conclusion
This is a batch, and strain, capable of bringing that “first-time” high back to even some of the most seasoned tokers. I’m not sure what its potency is, but I bet it runs near the 30% mark. It’s perfect for a late afternoon or evening timeframe when you’re looking for a head change and some comforting vibes, but I enjoyed it beginning right after lunchtime. Pro tip: if you burn it right after a meal it really seems like a treasured gourmet dessert with its decadent flavor.
