Traditionally LA Kush Cake is cultivated by crossing Wedding Cake and Kush Mints, but today we’re looking a variation of this cross by Thumbs Up Brand.
Pink Cookies x Kush Mints from Thumbs Up is a potent indica-dominant strain with a high terpene ratio of 3.83% and include myrcene, limonene and farnesene . This flower has dense, dark buds covered in a thick layer of frosty trichome and delivers a smooth vanilla flavour with an earthy and peppermint undertone. But the real question is how does Pink Cookies x Kush Mints from Thumbs Up compare to other versions of LA Kush Cake?
Check our review, rating and photos below.
Smell
We very much enjoyed Thumbs Up Brand’s Outlaw strain, so we’ve got our fingers crossed for this one especially because of the strain. As soon as the bag was opened we were hit with the familiar and delicious scent that LA Kush Cake produces. The unmistakable creamy lemon with vanilla and hint subtle hints of pine were all quite prominent.
Appearance
How often does one come across something so beautiful and simply want more! This strain rarely ever disappoints in terms of visual appeal. The popcorn sized buds are about as colourful as they come, very dense and look just amazing. The bright green buds with odd spots of dark speckles, bright orange hairs woven throughout with some purple leaf tips. However this would probably still come in third place behind Natural History and Tantalus.
Flavour
LA Kush Cake is one of our favourite strains and Thumbs Up Brand’s Pink Cookies x Kush Mints is no exception. It’s a great tasting bud with a smooth smoke, strong yet sweet lemony vanilla and pine icing flavour that is really quite unique to this strain. Once you smoke LA Kush Cake there is no mistaking where the name originated.
Experience
What a great experience! Thumbs Up indeed. Here is where this product made up some ground on it’s rivals from Natural History and Tantalus Labs. These other brands produce excellent versions of this strain but their price is a full bracket above this one. Although the high might be a tad weaker this product still delivers a very strong buzz that is a combination of feeling like you’ve taken a muscle relaxant combined with a strong mental cloud of tranquillity and calmness.
