Formally Queso, this wonderful hybrid was created in 2011 by Kannabia Seeds using Cheese and Afghani genetics. Kiss is a hybrid strain that provides powerful body effects and mood elevation. This potent flower is typically used to relieve pain, anxiety, and insomnia while offering a pugent cheese-like aroma. This aroma comes from the assumed cross of Northern Lights and Skunk, speaking to the 65/35 Indica-dominiant split described by Kannabia. Hailing from Spain, this savory international delight is a treat for anyone lucky enough to get their hands caked with the kiefy dust of this Europian native.

I picked this strain up in live rosin jelly form and was sold to me as "Queso"This stuff has a super gassy cheese and skunk odor coming from the jar.I chose to nectar collect it and soon found my tongue bathed in terps and cheddar.My mind slowly melting away time ticks slowly and I giggle about things as I slip into a heavy body stone...I definitely recommend to use at mid to late evening.Stay stoney n safe y'all

Great strain that packs a punch! Definitely a head to the body feeling. For sure makes me hungry even though I'm an "experienced" user.

As with every strain I've encountered thus far from Cloud Cover, this one does not disappoint. The aroma hits you as soon as you open the container, but it's far from overwhelming. It's a sweet scent, fruity but not of any specific fruit I can recall having. Sort of similar to an "orange" candy smell. I love it, but I do tend to love fruit-forward, sweet smells. I vaporized this concentrate in their 'terp sugar' form using a banger and torch. Didn't measure the temp, but I tend to go low as possible. I like a flavorful hit. This one tasted like it smelled. Fruity and soft, with an immediate buzz that left me comforted and relaxed. Definitely calmed me, but I don't feel a harsh couchlock, at least not from just a few dabs. Lovely concentrate, as I always expect and get from the Cloud Cover brand. Definitely would buy again.

Now why do some places put this at ‘mega queso’ and say it’s a Sativa? I needed a little extra energy today and now I’m just tired and ready for a nap. Little confused here

i got it as 'mega queso'..guess it is that strain because it has typical uk cheese smell..I get that strain at sativa side but turns out it's a heavy indica..very good smell..nice bud..first 10 mins body high comes but then another wave of body buzz and body high came and sits like an hour..it's last long and good strain..it's not a sativa tho

This is exactly why I don't smoke indica. It took me one hour and a half to write this.

I picked up a gram of queso fuertes and smoked my first bowl of this strain. So far I'm feeling clear headed and productive-- seems like a great before - work option. It's my day off so I bust out the art supplies and, BAM! Magic.
