About Grease Monkey

Grease Monkey is a hybrid from Exotic Genetix that crosses Gorilla Glue #4 with Cookies and Cream. It picked up a following on the West Coast for its heavy resin and dessert-meets-fuel personality, and it now shows up on dispensary menus across the US and in Canada.

The aroma mixes sweet vanilla and cream with a rich, earthy base and a sharp diesel edge inherited from the Glue side. Buds tend to be dense and chunky, coated in a thick layer of frosty trichomes that can make them look almost white. Caryophyllene often brings a peppery, earthy depth, myrcene adds a musky sweetness, and limonene can lift the nose with a faint citrus brightness.

Grease Monkey is commonly described as relaxed, happy and sleepy. People often save it for the evening, when a heavy, unwinding body feel and a contented mood fit the plan for the night. THC usually ranges from 20% to 26%, with little CBD, and potency varies by grower and batch.

Because it can run strong, Grease Monkey tends to suit experienced consumers more than beginners. Start low, go slow, and give each dose time to settle before deciding on more. Use WhereLeaf to find Grease Monkey at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
