About Cherry Grapes

Cherry Grapes is an artisanal California dessert cultivar uniting two beloved fruit-pastry lineages: Cherry Pie and Grape Stomper (or Purple Urkle). The plants produce dense, spade-shaped colas with deep purple and wine-red calyxes frosted in glistening crystal trichomes. The aroma is intensely fruity and sweet—featuring candied black cherries, sweet Concord grape juice, warm bakery dough, and earthy floral musk. Inhaling delivers a smooth, flavorful smoke that provides an immediate, mood-elevating cerebral lift before melting into a peaceful, full-body physical calm that soothes muscular tension.
