Dessert cannabis, like the Brownie Scout strain, still ranks as some of the most popular today. This could be due to the sweet aroma and flavor or distinct effects. These strains gained popularity after Cookies popularized GSC and breeders began creating new strains based on it.
GSC, or Girl Scout Cookies, has a rich, freshly-baked cookie flavor and scent. Many of the resulting hybrids also have a sweetness to them. This includes Brownie Scout, a flavor originally bred with two beloved, classic parent plants.

Brownie Scout is a cross of Platinum Girl Scout Cookies and Kosher Kush. Platinum GSC often tests with higher THC than the original GSC. Some critics believe it has a bit less flavor and fragrance. Kosher Kush is a heavy indica variety beloved for its potentially pain-relieving properties. When mixed together, these strains become Brownie Scout. The indica creates a sedated euphoria that makes it one of the most sought-after strains of the year.
Brownie Scout appearance, smell, and taste
Cannabis connoisseurs covet the Brownie Scout strain for its beautiful appearance and intense effects. The flower grows light green and frosted with trichomes. Purple spots can appear on the top shelf buds. Its pistils range in color from orange to brown, and buds grow in a dense spear shape.
As for the aroma, it combines the brightness of limonene and the earthy bitterness of caryophyllene for a skunk-forward scent. Brownie Scout leans into chocolate notes slightly in the flavor, paired with nutty citrus notes. This mocha nut combination titillates the senses, but it shines when the effects kick in.
The Brownie Scout experience
Brownie Scout is said to have intense effects. Those who find this at the dispensary are in for a wild ride. The cannabis strain may start with a vibrant euphoria that could feel intense for beginners. This eventually settles down into a heavy, sedative feeling.
Strains that unfold with this kind of intensity can sometimes evoke anxiety. If this happens, it is best to sit down and ride these feelings to the other side. This come-up phase will probably plateau, provided the mind allows it to. If the beginning of Brownie Scout feels too intense, try drinking some water, listening to or streaming something comforting, and take a few deep breaths.

Once that initial euphoria fully blasts off, it settles into sleepiness. Those comfortable with that kick-off might enjoy the Brownie Scout strain at the end of the day or even before bed.
Brownie Scout offers a chill vibe after a giggly kick to start. Anyone down for that ride will appreciate this popular indica variety.
