<p>This week&#8217;s new strains are a mix of old and new genetics, beginning with the sativa landraces known as &#8220;Aceh&#8221; in Indonesia. Also new to the <a href="http://leafly.com/explore">Explorer</a> is the sativa Sweet Cheese which mixes genetics from two classic parent strains. Middlefork hails from Washington state, where it was originally grown between the fork of two rivers. Grape OX was among the winners at this year&#8217;s Michigan Medical Cannabis Cup, and Khalifa Kush is an OG strain that was built to rap artist Wiz Khalifa&#8217;s specifications. Such privilege.</p>

<div style="line-height: 0px;"></div>
<p>Cannabis is a flower. And like flowers, cannabis exhibits strong, diverse odors that will stimulate your mind and elicit different sensations based on those smells (and, when smoked, flavors). These smell- and flavor-inducing chemicals are known as <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/terpenes-the-flavors-of-cannabis-aromatherapy">terpenes</a>, which are representative of potential effects inside each unique flower. <a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/myrcene-linalool-and-bisabolol-what-are-the-benefits-of-these-can">Linalool</a>, for example, is a powerful terpene most commonly associated with lavender. It’s known for its relaxing, sedative effects — the same thing people hope to inspire when they place a pouch of lavender under their pillows before bed.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/cannabis-101/terpenes-the-flavors-of-cannabis-aromatherapy"><img class="w-full my-lg" src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/indica-vs-sativa-cannabis-edibles-will-they-affect-you-differentl/tgHdm00vTnOouc1POXbm_terpenes-the-flavors-of-cannabis-aromatherapy.jpg" alt="Terpenes: The Flavors of Cannabis Aromatherapy" width="720px" height="230px" /></a></p>
<p>Cannabis is a flower. Lavender is a flower. So what? Flowers smell like flowers.</p>
<p>Wait. Hold your horses, y’all. Here’s where it gets weird.</p>
<p>Of all the terpenes, of which more than 200 are found in cannabis, many evoke smells that don’t occur naturally in nature. Today, we are going to focus on a few terpenes near and dear to my heart (and stomach): CHEESE!</p>
<p>The “cheesy” terpenes are easily some of the most pungent and challenging. But the strains reward the adventurous palate with brilliant, uplifting effects that are pleasantly stimulating and luscious.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.leafly.com/news/lifestyle/recipe-how-to-make-cannabis-infused-nacho-cheese"><img class="w-full my-lg" src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/why-do-some-cannabis-strains-smell-like-cheese/AnjiiQYPQmChFyhDm8ER_recipe-how-to-make-cannabis-infused-nacho-cheese.jpg" alt="Recipe: How to Make Cannabis-Infused Nacho &quot;Cheese&quot;" width="720px" height="230px" /></a></p>
<p>Such terpenes include octanoic acid, (methyl thio) butyrate, ethylmethyl acetic acid, hexanoic acid, isovaleric acid, and methyl mercaptan. These chemicals traverse the scale of cheesiness from the sweet, vanilla ice cream elements of <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/dairy-queen">Dairy Queen</a> to the significantly cave-aged earthiness of <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/og-cheese">OG Cheese</a> and <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/uk-cheese">UK Cheese</a>.</p>
<p>But cheese strains aren’t exclusively savory. Like many fine cheese plates, fruit notes add a complementary sweetness to the umami qualities of a truly robust queso. Strains like <a href="https://www.leafly.com/hybrid/blueberry-cheesecake" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blueberry Cheesecake</a>, <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/blue-cheese">Blue Cheese</a>, <a href="https://www.leafly.com/sativa/sweet-cheese">Sweet Cheese</a>, <a href="https://www.leafly.com/indica/bubble-cheese">Bubble Cheese</a>, and many more incorporate sweet elements that can bring creeping indica effects to this primarily sativa-hybrid family.</p>
<p>Cheese terpenes may not be the most pleasant to smell, but they are everywhere. Check out this quote by <a href="https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">THCFarmer.com</a> pertaining to one of the many cheese-like terpenes:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“Isovaleric Acid has a strong, pungent, sour, stinky feet, sweaty cheese smell. It is a major component of the cause of unpleasant foot odor. However, its volatile esters have pleasing scents and are used widely in perfumery. Used as a flavoring it is cheesy, dairy, sweet creamy, fermented, waxy and berry. It has shown effectiveness as an anticonvulsant and antidepressant.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This isn’t a recommendation to huff your stinky socks in an effort to conquer depression, but a simple illustration of the fine line between the refined and the repulsive. So go on: Grab a bowl, smile, and say, “cheese!” Looking for some options?

Why Do Some Cannabis Strains Smell Like Cheese?

This was one of the stinkiest buds I've ever tried.  I really can't emphasize it enough that this is one smelly strain of weed.  But it is a nice smell.
Anyway, this could  probably help with sleep problems as when I smoked it at night, I literally just had to go to bed after.  And I'm a stay up late kind of guy.  Nice taste, nice high, pain and stress relief, what more can I say?

 Like its name, Sweet Cheese has the aromas of a mild cheese with sweet undertones of fruits and berries with a hint of sweet melon.  This bud breaks up easy and is nicely compact.  perfect for DAYTIME smoke to start your day or energize you mid day for an extra booster of CREATIVITY, MOTIVATION and INSPIRATION.  Great for those seeking productivity away from ANXIETY and DEPRESSION. If you find this bud stock up, it's a perfect staple to keep in rotation.  Shares nicely and keeps you social yet fully in control.  We love SWEET CHEESE.

Feel like I'm on crack and I want to go on a run? I don't know - but this stuff is amazing. It's like being invincible. Enjoy.

Pretty pleasant and heavy on the intoxicant effect. Great if you're looking to relax and enjoy yourself while counteracting depression. 

Not so hot if you need to function, though. I vaporized a small bowl, and found that I was losing track of the things I was trying to get done. In fact, trying to write this review took me a little bit because I kept forgetting that I was trying to open Leafly on my phone. 

This didn't smell like Cheese or any of the "Sweet" strains I've tried.  Just smelled vaguely diesel-ish, but I smoke a lot of Diesel so there's that.  I had not smoked anything for four hours before trying this.

Buds were light green and soft, spongy, and slightly crunchy.  Ground up ok, nice and gooey, into the bowl.

Thick smoke, a bit like paint thinner(!) at the start, but my pipe is wood and OLD (an old ganja pipe from a trip to India).  Nice creepy start, feel it in my shoulders spreading out, definitely indica dominant here.  But a very noticeable head buzz like Headband, or P. Express.  Feel it right around my temples, moving, and pulsing.  Cool!

Ash doesn't compact easy on it's own.  Compact it too much yourself and it slows air flow significantly.  Also it looked bass a** in my perc.   

The buds do not look too resinous (about average), but they were packed with plenty THC and CBD, trust me.  TONS of little orange hairs everywhere.   Acquired from Green Acres Medical in Yucca Valley, CA.

Two rips off the sweet cheese gets me mash potatoed. Will put you in an energetic yet chill happy state and I find making art or listening to music are great ways to enjoy! Also soothes nausea like none other.

instant and sharp head high, followed shortly by intense upper body buzz that trickles down to your lower extremities with time. smell is cheesy and sweet, taste is same with earthy undertones. pretty wild for a sativa, my new go to wake and bake but this would be a great all day strain too.

<p>Named for its sharply sour aroma, Cheese is an indica-dominant <a href="/strains/lists/category/hybrid">hybrid</a> from the U.K. that has achieved widespread popularity for its unique flavor and consistent potency. With origins that stretch back to the late 1980s, Cheese is said to descend from a <a href="/strains/skunk-1">Skunk #1</a> <a href="/news/growing/cannabis-genotypes-and-phenotypes-what-makes-a-strain-unique">phenotype</a> whose pungent aroma made it stand out. Breeders like Big Buddha Seeds later introduced <a href="/strains/afghani">Afghani</a> indica genetics to increase Cheese&rsquo;s <a href="/news/cannabis-101/cannabis-anatomy-the-parts-of-the-plant">trichome</a> production and yields. The resulting strain&nbsp;is now well-known for its <a href="/strains/lists/effect/relaxed">relaxed</a>, <a href="/strains/lists/effect/happy">happy</a> effects that gently ease you into a blissful&nbsp;state of mind.</p>
