Initial Thoughts
When a strain is named Dante’s Inferno, it immediately conjures up images of fiery depths, epic journeys, and maybe even some divine retribution. But don't let the name fool you—this strain isn’t about eternal torment, unless you count the inevitable moment when you realize you've smoked it all and need more. A collaboration between Clearwater Genetics and Tiki Madman, Dante’s Inferno blends Oreoz and Devil Driver into a potent, indulgent hybrid that delivers a luxurious, dessert-like experience with a deeply relaxing touch. Available now through The Gift Givers in Washington, DC, this strain is anything but hellish—more like a ticket to paradise. 🎟🏝
Appearance
If anything belongs in cannabis heaven, it's the sheer visual appeal of Dante’s Inferno. The buds are dense and thick, displaying an impressive array of deep purples, dark greens, and fiery orange pistils. A heavy coating of frosty trichomes gives it a glistening, almost jewel-like quality, as if it were forged in some celestial cannabis workshop. Every nug looks like it was sculpted by the angels (or at least by master cultivators with serious attention to detail).
Status
Curing.
Aroma
The first whiff of Dante’s Inferno is more reminiscent of a five-star bakery than a fiery underworld. Sweet strawberries and rich cream take center stage, blending effortlessly with a nutty, cookie-like scent that hints at its Oreoz heritage. As you break apart the buds, you’ll notice subtle layers of vanilla, sugary fruit, and just a touch of black pepper—adding a complex, almost spiced dessert-like depth to the overall profile. If this is what purgatory smells like, then staying there for a while doesn’t sound too bad.
Flavor
Smoking or vaping Dante’s Inferno is an absolute treat. The inhale bursts with sugary, creamy fruit flavors—imagine dipping fresh strawberries into vanilla whipped cream. As the smoke rolls over your tongue, nutty cookie dough and a hint of spice emerge, giving the profile a smooth, well-balanced complexity. On the exhale, a wave of rich, slightly earthy sweetness lingers, making each hit feel like a full-course dessert. If Dante himself had access to this strain, his journey through hell might have been a lot more enjoyable.
