Gellato #33

 Had a chance to light up some of this strain today and have to say I really enjoy it. Gelato #33 has what I would best describe as a "solid" effect. It's elevating, a bit euphoric and keeps you on a fairly pleasant place between the energy of a Sativa and the calming effect of an Indica. I've been thinking of a way to create a "scale" for things, and this post I'm going to kind of elaborate on that concept a bit. I will discuss the various traits of a strain giving each a score, then at the end I will give it a final score.

Flavor- 7:

The most striking part of this strain taste is how smooth it is. Where some strains seem to almost compete with the different flavors, Gelatto #33 combines the herbal, citrus, and spicey undertones into a very pleasant flavor that feels more solid and whole. If you are someone that is heavily into the flavor of a strain this one may not have enough punch to it, but if you enjoy a smooth flavor that doesn't overwhelm you with any particular aspect, then you will like this strain. My overall score for the flavor of this strain is a 7, it's a solid flavor but nothing special.

Onset -8:

The onset of the high of Gelatto #33 is smooth and solid. It doesn't hit you to fast, but also doesn't creep up on you. If you are someone who tends to like a fast and hard onset, this strain is going to be a bit underwhelming, and if you are someone that likes a long-lasting creep, it's not going to be flipping your button. However, if you like a steady onset that leaves you with a pretty stead effect, this strain is going to give you that.

Experience -8: 

The best way to describe the full experience of Gelatto #33 is solid. In fact that is really what I would consider the defining factor of this particular strain, it's solid. The experience is one of a very mellow elevation, that is ideal for a chill evening playing a video game or even watching a movie. I wouldn't recommend this for a wake and bake, nor would I recommend this for going to sleep. However, what I would recommend this for is the first bowl after a long day of work. 

Overall Score - 7.5

I really do enjoy the solid high this strain gives me, but it isn't anything special. That is both what really works for Gelatto #33 and what holds it back. If I am in the mood for a chill night where I don't feel like doing a lot, this stain is absolutely perfect. However, if I am in a mood to do things, which is often the case, this strain leans a bit to heavy toward Indica for me to really get into. In the end, it's a solid strain that doesn't disappoint you, but it also isn't going to wow you.
