Head Cheese: A Refined Take on Classic UK Funk
When you fuse old-school UK Cheese funk with the cerebral gas of 818 Headband, you get a strain that’s as bold as it is balanced: Head Cheese.
This 75% indica-dominant hybrid blends the best of both sides of the pond — offering pungent aroma, generous yields, and a high that both relaxes and inspires.
The Lineage: UK Cheese Meets 818 Headband
At its roots, Head Cheese is a cross between:
818 Headband – A powerful hybrid known for its cerebral clarity and diesel funk
Big Buddha Cheese – A legendary UK strain with skunky, cheesy, and earthy depth
The result is a richly aromatic hybrid that combines Kushy chemical notes, sharp sour undertones, and that unmistakable cheese kick — all in one well-rounded flavor bomb.
