This strain debuted when Dinafem Seeds crossed its award winning Critical + with its Cheese to produce an earthy, citrusy, sweet smell and taste with nearly 20% THC.

Dinafem says Critical Cheese tends to produce a strong uplifting effect that can be too much for inexperienced users. The strain won third prize in Seed Bank Strains at Secret Cup 2016 and first prize for indica at Copa Farallones 2017.
