About UK Cheese

UK Cheese, also known as Cheese or Exodus Cheese, is a hybrid that originated in the United Kingdom as a phenotype of Skunk #1. It gained popularity in England through the Exodus collective and went on to become one of the most recognizable British strains and a parent to many Cheese crosses.

The buds are usually medium-sized and light green, with orange pistils and a sticky resin coating. Its most famous feature is a pungent, savory aroma often compared to sharp aged cheese, backed by earthy tones. Myrcene is commonly associated with earthy and musky notes, caryophyllene with spicy, savory depth, and pinene with a faint fresh, woody edge.

People often report a relaxed, happy and euphoric experience that feels balanced rather than heavy. UK Cheese is commonly described as an evening strain, a fit for social time or unwinding at home. THC usually sits around 15-20%, a moderate range by modern standards, though potency varies by grower and batch.

That moderate THC can make UK Cheese approachable for newer consumers, while its bold aroma keeps longtime fans coming back. Start low and go slow, and check the lab results on the package for exact numbers. Use WhereLeaf to find UK Cheese at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
