Crumpets strain guide
Crumpets is an indica-leaning hybrid of 3 Kings OG and London Pound Cake, bred by Cresco Labs. It's known for an unusual buttery, cheesy smell with a sweet cake side, and a warm, relaxed feel.
Where does Crumpets come from?
Crumpets is a cross of 3 Kings OG and London Pound Cake, credited to Cresco Labs. 3 Kings is itself a mix of SFV OG, Sour Diesel and Headband, so Crumpets has a lot of OG and diesel genetics behind it.
A strain spelled Krumpets from Breeder 42 is described as matching Cresco's version, so you may see both spellings.
What does Crumpets smell and taste like?
Crumpets smells buttery and savoury first, with a funky blue-cheese note, then sweet vanilla cake, earthy pine and a bit of sour orange. Some people pick up tar, wood or tobacco too, and many describe the smoke as sweet and creamy.
Caryophyllene tends to lead its published terpene results, followed by limonene and myrcene. Caryophyllene adds the peppery, savoury edge and limonene the bright orange note.
Crumpets effects: what people report
People describe Crumpets as relaxing and tingly, with a warm body feel, a talkative mood and, often, the munchies. Some find it uplifting or focused early on, while others say it gets sleepy later.
These are experiences people report, not promises. Dry mouth and dry eyes are common, a few people mention feeling paranoid, and one reviewer called it couch-locking.
How strong is Crumpets?
Crumpets is a high-THC strain. Its main listing puts it around 25% THC, and some products have been listed higher, up to about 35%, with very little CBD. Infused products can go far above that, so read the label.
If you're new to it, start small and wait before having more. Our THCA vs THC guide explains why some labels show bigger numbers than others.
Buying Crumpets in Canada
Check whether you're looking at flower or an infused product, since those can carry very different numbers under the same name.
You may also see it spelled Krumpets. Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of that buttery smell.
Crumpets vs London Pound Cake
London Pound Cake is one of Crumpets' parents, and you can smell the connection in the sweet, bakery side. London Pound Cake leans sweet and lemony, like a cake, while Crumpets adds 3 Kings' OG and diesel funk, which pushes it toward butter, cheese and pine. Both are high-THC and get called relaxing, though Crumpets reports mention more appetite and a talkative streak. If you want sweet, start with London Pound Cake. If savoury and funky sounds good, try Crumpets.
