Exploring Donkey Butter: A Burst of Perplexity and Flavor

Unveiling the Enigma of Donkey Butter

When it comes to cannabis strains, you’ve likely heard of the classics like Sour Diesel or OG Kush. But what about Donkey Butter? The name might be weird and has no relation to dairy or animals of any kind – but this indica powerhouse is no joke. The dank, fuel-forward terpene profile of Donkey Butter can be considered an acquired taste, but will be sure to rock the socks off any gas or diesel lovers.

The Mysterious Origins of Donkey Butter

No, it’s not some new-fangled alternative to cattle dairy — Donkey Butter is an indica-heavy hybrid with a knockout aroma. Devised by Exotic Genetix, the creators of Extreme OG, this strain crosses Triple OG with Exotic’s own Grease Monkey. Donkey Butter’s dank, earthy aroma may be something of an acquired taste but consumers tend to agree on its smooth, relaxing high. Donkey Butter’s THC content has been measured at between 14% and an impressive 27%.

A Visual Feast: Donkey Butter’s Appearance and Aroma

Donkey Butter stands out right away with medium to large-sized flowers that hold together in solid, conical shapes. The internal structure of these buds has the dense composition more typical of indicas, with wide, curly leaves. The leaves themselves are a deep shade of forest green, with some phenotypes even boasting patches of purple. Finally, Donkey Butter’s flowers are made even more colorful by corkscrewed orange pistils and snowy, translucent trichomes.

Once cured, flowers of Donkey Butter have a gamey, earthy scent. A second whiff may pick up on some woodsy, pine-like notes as well. Breaking apart or grinding these dense flowers can reveal more of an intense, gasoline-like odor, possibly passed on from grandparent strain Gorilla Glue. When it’s burnt in a pipe or a joint, Donkey Butter can give off an acrid, eye-watering smoke that may be somewhat harsh on the lungs. On the exhale, this thick smoke has a pungent flavor with some light herbal traces.

Unmasking the Scent and Flavor

It’s true that adding butter makes everything taste better, though this is not some sort of new age dairy product! Donkey Butter is a rare indica dominant hybrid created by professional breeders at Exotic Genetix, who have also brought you strains like Extreme OG, Cookies and Cream, Lemon Meringue and more! This particular strain was created by crossing one of their in house creations, Grease Monkey, with Triple OG, coming together to create this super pungent, euphoria-inducing bud! Its flavors are strongly skunky and spicy, so will perhaps cater towards those who enjoy dank strains, though its well-rounded deep and peaceful indica high will be loved by recreational and medical users alike!

The Potent Effects of Donkey Butter

Medical marijuana patients choose this strain for the physical and mental dulness that relieves chronic stress, pain and everyday troubles.

Unveiling the Slow Creep of Donkey Butter’s High

The Donkey Butter high is one that creeps up on you rather slowly. The first noticeable effects after a few minutes of smoking (and coughing on its heavy smoke), users will experience flushed cheeks and a tingly cerebral, head-focused high. Thoughts will become freely associative as they jump from one idea to another. Some users report it being psychedelic, and for the most part, it is widely experienced to be uplifting and euphoric. A little later into the high, as it further progresses, users will slowly feel a deep and peaceful body high settle in, which can be quite heavy and couch-locking. These relaxing effects might hinder the earlier mental stimulation as you move further towards a sleepy sedative state. These slow creeping effects make Donkey Butter suited for in-home usage, and best recommended for late afternoons or evenings, despite its initial stimulative effects. Its relaxing, sedative nature makes the strain effective for relieving symptoms of insomnia and physical pains whether temporary or chronic, while its upbeat uplifting effects further make it useful for alleviating symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. It often induces the munchies, so is also an ideal choice for those dealing with loss of appetite; you might want to have some snacks ready before you’re feeling too heavy to get up and about! An additional effect that is often reported with this strain is a feeling of arousal, so it can act as an aphrodisiac as well and can be shared with a partner–if you’re not feeling too sedated, that is!
