About Dolato Strain
dolato strain is a hybrid crossed from taste-engineered parents Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and fruity indica
Sunset Sherbert. With a balanced, mellow high and a universally appealing flavor profile, this is a great strain
for social use. San Francisco creators Cookie Fam Genetics have released multiple numbered phenotypes of
Gelato – phenotype #33 has picked up the nickname Larry Bird in reference to the legendary player’s jersey
number. This strain has an indica-leaning high and carries a THC composition that ranges from 20% to 25%.
Gelato’s buds tend to be small but they have the thick and dense structure characteristic of many indica
varieties. This is a strain with immediate visual appeal: bright orange pistils stand out against forest green
leaves that are accented by shades of deep purple. The purple hues come about when high concentrations of
pigments called anthocyanins are stimulated by cold weather in the vegetative stage. Although the buds
themselves are sticky, short stalks on the trichomes mean that this strain has a less frosty appearance than
many others. Cured properly, flowers of Gelato have a predominant smell of pungent citrus, compliments of
fruity parent strain Sunset Sherbert. Notes of yeast and dough can be detected as well. Grinding up or breaking
apart the flowers gives off a more herbal, earthy profile. Though it’s thick and lung-expanding, the smoke from
Gelato is smooth and leaves behind a soft and creamy sensation — perhaps going some way towards explaining
its name. This is one pungent smoke, and those trying to keep their consumption discreet should take any
necessary precautions.
