Stilton Special by Mephisto Genetics

Mephisto’s own take on the stand-out blue cheese. Being in England, and as many know Sheffield boys through and through, we had access to the real old-school cheese and blue cheese strains that we have dabbled and meddled with from way before Mephisto Genetics was a twinkle in Mitch and Tim’s eyes. Just like our old dads before us, tinkering and toiling away in their sheds for hours on end at the bottom of the garden, we’ve ended up doing the same thing, except our shed was a hotboxed farm. Chasing the perfect blue-cheese strain has never truly been our end goal, we think that was accomplished many, many moons ago, but what we’ve always strived to achieve with our cheese or livers strains is to be respectful and nostalgic of the past, but to bring a new, wider audience to auto form Sheffield weed. Stilton was a strain that took us way back, our first tokes in the Farm living room, laid out on the sofas with Trailer Park Boys playing on the CRT TV was like a snapshot of our younger days and we want to share those memories with you again.

Stilton Special is a tremendous artisanal combo in limited edition form. Two cultivars from MG coming together that have a beautiful shared UK blues/livers/cheese heritage with a sprinkling of haze and more old-school funk than James Brown. The Northern Cheese Haze adds size and more sativa structure to the mix, whilst the Sour Livers brings weight, frost and odour to the party. Trichome output is spot on, and the end flowers could be popped into a vase. They’re really something special to behold, with lime green flowers contrasted by electric orange pistils. Vigour is very nice on the Stilton Special and plants lend themselves well to a variety of growing conditions and training methods. Left to do her thang naturally you’ll get a nice medium-sized plant shape between tree and bush, but she is well-trainable to slot into your own style and space. Effects are nicely balanced, Stilton Special is a sweet everyday strain, good for wakey-wakey eggs and bakey, giving a nice boost but also mellow enough to be social, chilling and take the edge off modern life without being too heavy to ever dissolve you into your sofa completely. Flowers are tight with a decent density, she likely won’t drop like boulders onto your trim tray like some of our more indica cultivars but potential yields are well above average sun a quality you’d be hard-pressed to shake a stick at. The taste and aroma combo is a major highlight of Stilton Special, she’s definitely a nostril and palette smasher. During the growth stages she frequently stinks up the joint, and when smoking the joint stinks up the establishment. Whilst the Northern Cheese Haze alone can be slightly muted with the NL#5 / Haze with cheese lingering in the background, the Sour Livers brings flavour to the foreground with aromas ranging from Loud, Sour, fruity, Blueberry, Waffles with a creamy cheesy edge.
