SinMint Cookies Strain: Effects, Flavor & THC Guide
SinMint Cookies, often shortened to SMC, is one of the older mint forward cookie crosses still in regular rotation. Sin City Seeds released it well before the current wave of mint hybrids, and it remains a reference point for what a Forum Cut cookies plant looks like when it is bred for resin rather than for novelty flavor.

What is the SinMint Cookies strain?
SinMint Cookies is a Sin City Seeds cross of Girl Scout Cookies, specifically the Forum Cut, with Blue Power. Blue Power is a Sin City house line known for adding color, heavy resin production and a blueberry leaning sweetness, and all three traits carry through here. The genotype runs about 60 percent indica and 40 percent sativa. Growers report a flowering window of roughly 56 to 63 days, with some logs extending to 65, and plants that stay compact and medium height while stacking dense, frosted calyxes. That combination of short flowering and heavy trichome coverage is a large part of why the cut has stayed in circulation for so long.
What does SinMint Cookies taste and smell like?
The profile opens with cool mint, moves through a creamy sweetness in the middle, and finishes softly earthy. Myrcene carries the herbal base, linalool supplies the floral and faintly lavender edge that reads as mint, and humulene contributes the dry, grounding finish. The Forum Cut dough note is present throughout, so the overall impression is closer to a mint cookie than to a candy or a fruit forward dessert strain.
What effects does SinMint Cookies produce?
Users report a calm, physically weighted experience with a euphoric opening. The linalool and myrcene combination is commonly associated with the settled, low activity character people describe here, and reports frequently mention drowsiness as the session progresses. Most consumers treat it as an evening cultivar rather than a daytime one.
How does SinMint Cookies compare?
Compared with Kush Mints, already in the library, SinMint Cookies is the softer and creamier of the two mint expressions. Kush Mints leads with caryophyllene and delivers a sharper, more peppery menthol bite, while SinMint Cookies is myrcene and linalool driven, which reads floral and sweet rather than spicy. Against Girl Scout Cookies, its own parent, the Blue Power input adds visible color, noticeably more resin and a shorter, more predictable flowering window, which makes SinMint Cookies the more approachable of the pair for a home grower working on a fixed cycle.
