Gush Mints is a three-way Cookies-family cross bred by Purple City Genetics (Bay Area): Kush Mints (Animal Mints × Bubba Kush) × F1 Durb (a Durban Poison cross — one of the two direct parents of GSC itself) × Gushers (Gelato #41 × Triangle Kush). All three parents trace to the Cookies Fam catalog — an unusually concentrated Cookies genetics convergence.

Aroma is sequential: cool mint-herb up front from Kush Mints, tropical-fruit-candy in the middle from Gushers, gassy petrol base from F1 Durb and Triangle Kush. Effects are deeply physically relaxing — euphoric onset giving way to couch-anchoring sedation. Evening and nighttime use only. Leafly's aggregate terpene data leads with Limonene, Caryophyllene a close second, Linalool third. THC frequently exceeds 25% on premium indoor batches; some expressions clear 30%. A Leafly HighLight (July 2024) and a Leafly 2025 Strain of the Year nominee.
