Fortissimo

Fortissimo is a strain strongly associated with the Colorado market thanks to the breeders at Green Dot Labs (founded in Boulder), who created the indica-dominant hybrid by crossing Crescendo and Han Solo Burger. Favored for its strong indica effects, Fortissimo is also known for its pungent aroma — hence the name, which translates to "played loudly."

Expect a complex palate with heavy dank notes, sour citrus, and spice, combining the flavor profiles of both parent strains into an even more flavorsome form. Enthusiasm for the strain has only grown as it spreads outside of its original home market in Colorado, with most fan reviews describing an ultra-sticky bud that provides a pleasant sense of relaxed sedation, long-lasting effects, and potent physical relief when smoked.
