Where Badazz Cheese Comes From
Badazz Cheese is part of the Cheese collection from Big Buddha Seeds, a breeder whose flagship cut is Big Buddha Cheese. The lineage given on Leafly is Badazz OG Kush crossed with Big Buddha Cheese. Badazz OG Kush is a separate Big Buddha line, so this strain pairs two of the company’s own plants.
No release year or hard numbers appear in the sources I could check. Leafly places it on the indica side, and the old post agreed, but the details beyond that are thin. Per Leafly and Cannabis NI, the wider Cheese family descends from a Skunk #1 phenotype from the late 1980s, and Big Buddha has built a long line of crosses on it.
Badazz Cheese Effects: What It Feels Like
The high is described as uplifting and euphoric rather than sedating. Leafly’s tags are energetic, talkative and creative, which is a surprise for an indica-dominant strain, and the old listing described a euphoric wave that washes away mental and physical stress.
The likely path: a bright, chatty head effect first, then a warm body ease from the OG side. It suits a social evening or a creative session more than bedtime, though heavier doses can lean sleepy. Dry mouth is the only negative reported.
Badazz Cheese Terpenes, Aroma and Flavor
Expect a strong, savory cheese aroma, with Leafly’s tags listing cheese, blue cheese and berry. The old listing described piney, earthy and spicy qualities, consistent with the OG Kush parent.
No lab terpene numbers are published. Caryophyllene, myrcene and pinene are likely leaders given the spicy, earthy and piney descriptions, but they are inferred, not tested. Cheese strains are often smelly, so store it in a sealed jar.
Side Effects and How to Use Badazz Cheese
The side effects reported for this strain are the usual ones for THC-rich cannabis. Dry mouth and dry eyes top the list, and a few people report dizziness, anxiety or a racing mind after a large dose. Drink water, keep the first dose small, and use it in a comfortable setting until you know how a particular batch affects you.
How strong Badazz Cheese feels depends on the batch, your tolerance and how you consume it. Start low, go slow, and read our guide to dosing cannabis.
Do People Use Badazz Cheese for Medical Reasons?
People who use Cheese-family indicas often mention stress and tension, which matches the old listing’s note on mental and physical stress. Beyond that, little specific feedback is documented.
