Quick answer
Blue Cheesecake (Leafly: Blueberry Cheesecake) is a hybrid most often credited as Blueberry x Cheese, testing ~17% THC. Real blueberry-cheesecake aroma with savoury funk underneath, relaxed happy euphoric high.
Blue Cheesecake is the rare strain that smells exactly like its name - actual baked blueberry cheesecake, cream and all, with just enough Cheese-family funk underneath to keep it interesting. The high matches: happy and mellow, dessert-hour energy, zero rush. It will not rocket you anywhere, and that is the point. One honest note: phenotypes wander toward either parent, so one jar runs fruit-sweet and the next runs skunk-funky. Both are good, just different conversations. Grab it after dinner, not before the gym.

The story of Blue Cheesecake
Blue Cheesecake sits at the meeting of two legends: Blueberry, the DJ Short-bred Oregon classic that gave purple cannabis its fruit benchmark, and Cheese, the UK's skunk-funk icon that escaped from a Sensi Seed Bank Skunk #1 pack in a Cheshire grow in the late 80s. Crossing them was an obvious idea once both were famous, and the result smells exactly like its namesake dessert - which is rarer than it sounds in a naming culture full of wishful thinking. Leafly notes the offspring include Rebel Berry OG and Shurman, and that phenotypes vary toward either parent, so some jars run fruitier, some funkier. The consistent thread across batches: actual baked-cheesecake aroma, not just berry air freshener.
Terpene breakdown
Myrcene leads, delivering the soft berry body and the mellow physical settle. Caryophyllene brings the subtle black-pepper spice that keeps the sweetness grounded, and humulene - the hoppy, earthy terpene also found in beer hops - is the quiet signature here, adding a woody depth that reads as 'baked dessert' rather than 'candy'. The Cheese parent's funky skunk edge comes from the broader terp soup, not one compound. Net effect: dessert aroma with savoury underpinnings, smooth on the exhale.
Growing Blue Cheesecake
Growers describe phenotypes that tend toward either parent: Blueberry-leaning plants stay shorter with broader leaves and sweeter fruit, Cheese-leaning ones stretch more and get louder in flower. Buds finish lime green and dark violet with orange hairs and a thick crystal coat, per Leafly's grower reports. The dense cheese-family flowers need airflow watch in late flower to dodge mould. Flowering runs in the standard 8-9 week hybrid window, and the aroma through flower is intense - cheesecake in the jar means cheesecake in the tent.
How to consume Blue Cheesecake
This is an after-dinner strain by instinct. A joint or a bowl in the evening fits the relaxed-happy-euphoric curve; at ~17% THC it's approachable, and two modest sessions beat one heroic one. The flavour is the show - a clean glass pipe or a low-temp vape keeps the baked-cream character front and centre, while big torch hits cook it into generic sweetness. Best moments: winding down with a movie, a slow nightcap chat, any evening where dessert is the theme. Not for morning productivity, and not the pick if you have one more errand in you.
Blue Cheesecake vs similar strains
Blue Cheesecake vs Blue Cheese: the pure Cheese cross is funk-forward and heavier; Blue Cheesecake trades some skunk for real berry sweetness. Blue Cheesecake vs Blueberry Cookies: the Cookies version adds GSC dough and more potency; Blue Cheesecake is mellower and more old-school. Blue Cheesecake vs Blue Lobster: the Lobster is the modern high-THC fruit-gas lane; Blue Cheesecake is the relaxed dessert classic. For the same berry lineage with sativa lift, Blue Dream is the classic.

Is Blue Cheesecake the same as Blue Cheese?
No. Both share Cheese genetics, but Blue Cheesecake is the Blueberry x Cheese dessert hybrid while Blue Cheese is its own funkier, heavier cross.
Storing Blue Cheesecake
Dessert terps are the fragile kind - the baked-cream sweetness is delicate and fades first when storage is sloppy. Airtight glass, cool dark cupboard, 58-62% humidity pack. Keep it away from the fridge door and any heat source; the berry top notes bake off into flat sweetness within weeks if the jar sits warm or half-sealed. Burp fresh jars daily for the first week. Handled right, the cheesecake stays loud for months.
