I cured them in cookie tins and the buds have a almost felt paper like feel when breaking chunks off.

Thank you for the detailed report and beautiful picture. This looks like a strain I had once that smelled and looked like Christmas to me. Kind of a funny description, I know, but you know the way those little Christmas shoppettes with all the expensive figurines smell...kind of spicy/sweet. Plus it was very red and green (lighter green with pinkish red), with a nice dusting of "snowy" trichomes. I've been looking for this strain ever since, but haven't found anything like it. This looks like one I must try!
