This is going in my Top Five. If I were stranded after the apocalypse with only one strain, Head Cheese would be a strong contender. It's relaxing without being sleepy. Doesn't melt my face or give me droopy eyes. Good narcotic effect on the body... after a bowl or two of Head Cheese I always get a brief body tingling sensation, and then just solid, numb relaxation. Absolutely great for mood... takes care of stress and gives you a positive outlook. I don't find it giggly or silly at all, just uplifted, positive, and general feelin' good.

As an experienced smoker, I’ve tried a lot of strains—and I mean a lot. I probably have 10 cartridges sitting around that I barely touched because they just didn’t vibe with me. But Head Cheese? Total game-changer. Even though it’s an indica-dominant hybrid, I find it super functional. I can take a few hits and still go about my evening—cooking dinner, tidying up, whatever. It gives me that relaxed, mellow clarity without the couch lock or fog. It’s not the easiest strain to find, so if you ever come across it—grab it. I highly recommend it, especially if you know your terpenes. That’s key. Once you figure out which terps your body responds well to, you’ll notice that the strains you like all have similar profiles. I usually know within the first hit if a strain will sit right with me—and Head Cheese just hits every note.

ABSOLUTELY WORTH THE TRY!! Please do NOT pay attention to the name, it is very unappealing, yes; but, wow. Just this strain really make the PERFECT SATIVA!!! The flavor profile is nothing to be scared of, not cheesy or stinky, it taste like a VANILLA Greek yogurt with mild BERRIES to follow suit. THE SMELL!!!!! OMGGGGG I wish you could get high off smelling this. Absolutely the BEST SMELLING bud I’ve ever had. NO CHEESE WHATSOEVER!!!! It’s a beautiful stinky herb, smelling like berries and fresh pine trees. The “cheese” (or yogurt in my opinion) is there but it’s very subtle and you can’t smell it unless you’re specifically trying too. If someone let me smoke this without knowing the name, I would definitely claim this to be one of my fabulous favorites. The perfect day time sativa. NO body high that is too heavy, but not focused either. This is the strain you want to GET WORK DONE or go to the GYM! I’d best describe this as the feeling you get when you walk into a grocery store and the big air conditioner is blasting you with fresh air. You FEEL it in your busy but it’s not a heavy high, it makes you feel almost light and very relived of PAIN!! The head gets that sativa sensation too without getting heavy or too focused where your eyes feel like they’re going to close. THIS IS THE BEST SATIVA OUT THERE!! If you’ve been looking for that sativa that gives you a beautiful balance with Mycerene terpenines, THIS IS IT!!
