Double Cream
Double Cream is a modern hybrid strain with an undocumented lineage. This cultivar is characterized as a product of intentional breeding practices, resulting in a stable genetic profile that performs effectively across both indoor and outdoor growing environments. Cultivators generally categorize the strain as being of moderate growing difficulty, typically reaching full maturity within a 65-day flowering cycle. When provided with optimal conditions, the strain is recognized for producing a consistently high yield.
The chemical profile of Double Cream is defined by a terpene composition led by myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. This specific arrangement of terpenes dictates the strain’s sensory characteristics, offering a complex aromatic and flavor experience mapped directly to its chemical dominant structure. Users can expect a nuanced profile that reflects the interplay between these three constituents, providing a distinct sensory baseline inherent to this specific hybrid.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Double Cream delivers effects centered on feelings of relaxation, happiness, and an uplifted mood. These traits make it a common selection for addressing symptoms of stress and physical pain, as well as for aiding in sleep. The strain has also contributed to the genetic landscape of contemporary cannabis, serving as a parent to the notable offspring known as Narcotherapy.

Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
