Biscotti is a hybrid (balanced) cannabis strain with a sweet cookie, light coffee, earthy spice on the back profile, 21-25% THC range, and a dominant terpene blend of caryophyllene, limonene, humulene. It is best known for evening unwind, dessert pairing, the after-dinner indica-leaning hybrid, with effects setting in medium, 5 minutes, balanced peak with strong body relaxation. Terp Bros NYC stocks Biscotti-family cuts and similar terpene profiles across both our Astoria and Ozone Park CAURD-licensed locations, lab-tested under NY OCM Part 113 standards.
Effects + Reported Use Cases
Biscotti is typically reported as a hybrid (balanced) experience: evening unwind, dessert pairing, the after-dinner indica-leaning hybrid. Onset is medium, 5 minutes, balanced peak with strong body relaxation. Duration runs 2 to 4 hours when inhaled, longer when consumed as edibles or rosin gummies. The cannabinoid + terpene profile drives the felt experience, not just the THC number on the label.
Terp Bros sells adult-use cannabis for adults 21 and older, and nothing here is medical advice or a treatment claim. What our budtenders will do is explain the terpene and cannabinoid profile, talk through the aroma and the reported feel, and help match a product format and dose to the kind of session you have in mind. Every product is lab-tested with a certificate of analysis on the package and on the Dutchie product page.
Terpene Profile
What each terpene is and how it behaves is covered in our terpene guide. Below is what they do in this cultivar.
Biscotti is built on a dominant terpene stack of caryophyllene, limonene, humulene, which together produce the sweet cookie, light coffee, earthy spice on the back aroma profile customers recognize across batches. Terpene-led recommendations are how our budtenders walk new customers off "biggest THC number wins" thinking and into picking a strain that actually matches the feeling they want.
Caryophyllene
In Biscotti specifically, caryophyllene contributes peppery, warm, grounding on the body.
Limonene
In Biscotti specifically, limonene contributes mood-elevating, clear-headed euphoria, daytime-friendly.
Humulene
In Biscotti specifically, humulene contributes earthy, hoppy, body-grounding.
Lineage + Genetics
Biscotti traces back to Gelato #25 crossed with Sour Florida OG crossed with Biscotti phenotype, with a documented origin story rooted in Cookies Family, 2018, the modern Cookies dessert-terp benchmark with a stronger body weight than Gelato. The flowering time runs 8-9 weeks, which puts it in the standard commercial-cultivar window most NY indoor growers are working with.
Budtender Notes, Queens-Specific Observations
Biscotti is the Cookies-family pick for customers who want Gelato terps with more body, we steer evening pickups here and morning pickups to Gelato itself. That observation is the kind of pattern only a store with foot traffic in a specific neighborhood can identify. The Astoria walk-in crowd is different from the Ozone Park walk-in crowd, and both are different from a Manhattan dispensary's customer base.
How to Try Biscotti in Queens
Ask at either counter for the current batch and its certificate of analysis: Astoria, 36-10 Ditmars Blvd or Ozone Park, 135-26 Cross Bay Blvd. Same-day delivery covers most of Queens. Formats: flower, pre-rolls, vapes, concentrates, edibles (NY OCM caps edibles at 10mg THC per serving, 100mg per package). When a cultivar is out of stock we say so and point to the closest terpene profile on the live menu.
Is Biscotti a daytime or evening strain? Yes for most customers. Biscotti's caryophyllene + limonene terpene dominance combined with the hybrid-leaning lineage makes it one of our requested evening strains. Pair it with a low-dose CBN-blend gummy for full evening wind-down support.
Does Biscotti cause anxiety? Less likely than high-terpinolene sativas. Biscotti contains caryophyllene (peppery, grounding), limonene (mood-elevating) which tend to read calmer than racy. Start with a small dose if you are sensitive to cannabis, and ask a budtender if 1:1 THC:CBD versions of this strain family are in stock.
What is the THC percentage of Biscotti? Biscotti typically tests in the 21-25% THC range across NY-licensed cultivators. The exact percentage varies by batch and cultivator, every Terp Bros NYC flower jar has the certificate of analysis on the package and on the Dutchie product page. CBD is typically less than 1% in this cultivar.
Is Biscotti safe for first-time cannabis customers? Biscotti is a balanced hybrid that works for first-time customers as long as the dose is conservative. Start with a single inhale or a 2.5mg edible, and ask a budtender about the current batch's THC percentage before deciding on format.
