Chem Dawg is bold and deep with notes of savory miso, smoked almonds, roasted herbs, sea salt, and earth. As you continue to evaluate, the strain opens up with sour citrus and diesel aromas. The strain’s herbaceous and savory notes continue on the palate followed by a hint of roasted almond flavors. Chem Dawg is calming and sedative – a perfect strain to pair with savory entrées and comfort food.
