Most of the time when a friend describes the \u201csubtle notes of berry and orange, with undercurrents of chocolate and pine\u201d of a strain, or whatever, weed just smells like\u2026 weed. <\/p>\n<p>Which is great, don\u2019t get me wrong, I love the smell of weed. But a lot of it just smells like \u201cgeneric weed smell\u201d to me. Maybe some weed scents are just too subtle for my nose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, I thought I\u2019d test my sniffer by finding some of the funkiest and skunkiest weed strains out there. The goal? To really get those aromas up my nostrils and try and discern them. Not just regular ol\u2019 stinky weed\u2014the truly loud, dank, and eye-wateringly pungent strains. The kind that make you wince and turn your head when you open the bag. But in the best way.<\/p>\n<p>I was quite surprised by the results of my stinky strain experiment. I found a new favorite, and I was also able to analyze some skunky standards that had me wondering why they\u2019re so popular. <\/p>\n<p>Regardless of my likes, pungent weed should be celebrated for its funkiness.&nbsp;Here are my findings on the top 5 stinkiest weed strains out there.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-cheese\">Cheese<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" alt=\"cheese marijuana strain\" class=\"wp-image-184063 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-1.jpg,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-1.jpg,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-1.jpg,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-1.jpg,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Pass the Cheese, please.

The name couldn\u2019t be more fitting\u2014its sharp, sour aroma will remind you of stinky cheese. Side note: I once smoked a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/strains\/strawberry-cheesecake\">Strawberry Cheesecake<\/a> that tasted <em>exactly like strawberry cheesecake<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>With Skunk and Afghani roots, this old-school stanky strain became popular in the \u201880s and comes from the UK. Its funky smell isn\u2019t too off-putting. With happy, relaxed, and chill vibes, Cheese is great for hanging out and talking with friends, and I definitely pick it up whenever I see it now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/strains-products\/cannabis-strains-with-unusual-aromas\" class=\"wp-block-leafly-blocks-leafly-single-inline-block leafly-inline-related-story\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 my-xl p-md font-bold\">\n<p>Related<\/p>\n<p>5 cannabis strains with unusual (and arguably terrible) aromas<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a> <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-gg4\">GG4<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" alt=\"Thanks to its resin, potency, and aroma \u2014 Original Glue seeds &amp; clones are in high demand in 2019.\" class=\"wp-image-92825 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-2.jpg,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-2.jpg,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-2.jpg,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/top-5-stinky-strains-for-funky-weed-lovers-2.jpg,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Glued to the couch.
