About Biscotti
Biscotti was bred by the Cookies team, crossing Gelato #25 with an undisclosed male. The strain quickly became a cornerstone of Cookies' modern genetics program due to its excellent breeding potential and distinctive terpene profile. Biscotti has a complex aroma — sweet dough, gas, citrus, and earthy notes that combine into a cookie-like richness. The buds are dense and trichome-heavy with a light green appearance. Effects are balanced and potent: cerebral euphoria with physical relaxation. Biscotti's true impact came through its progeny — it was used as a parent for Permanent Marker (with Jealousy), creating one of the most important strains of the decade.
Flavor Profile
History
Biscotti was released by Cookies around 2020 and became the foundation of their modern breeding program. Its true significance was realized when Seed Junky Genetics used a Biscotti cut to cross with Jealousy, creating Permanent Marker — the Leafly Strain of the Year 2023. Biscotti itself is a solid commercial strain, but its role as the parent of Permanent Marker cemented its place in cannabis genetics history. The strain remains a core part of the Cookies lineup.
