Blue Cheese is a descendant of the original hybrid UK Cheese crossed with the Indica strain Blueberry.  Blue Cheese is a sweet and rich Indica dominant strain and if you are already a fan of either Cheese or Blueberry, you must check out this variety. The complex savory aroma and taste coupled with heavy Indica effects make this strain a top contender for regular smokers looking to kick back and relax.

The buds are light green with a slightly bluish hue and are crystallized with a few red hairs. The fruitiness of the Blueberry really penetrates through the musky skunk of the Cheese while bringing along some of its skunky attributes. With a sweet, fruity and berry scent it has a noticeably musky undertone typical of the original Cheese. The potency is intense and comes on smooth in the beginning and mellows out to a “happy” high allowing you to concentrate on even the most tedious tasks while letting you down nice and easy. It is a great strain for the morning or early afternoon packing a punch without the dazed effect.
