About Koolato
Koolato is an elite indica-dominant hybrid bred by the prominent California brand Archive Seed Bank. A cross of the highly potent Face Off OG with Gelato #33 (Larry Bird cut), Koolato was created to combine the gas-heavy potency of OG Kush lines with the sweet, creamy dessert terpenes of the Gelato family. The flowers are compact, deep green with purple undertones, and heavily frosted with sticky resin. The aroma is extremely loud, smelling of sweet berry cream, sour lemon, earthy pine, and a heavy kerosene fuel backend. Koolato tests between 24-28% THC, delivering a fast-acting cerebral euphoria that settles into a heavy, couch-locking physical stone.
