The world of concentrates can seem daunting, yet the classification of cannabis products has continued to grow, slowly eating into traditional flower sales. While the wide open world slowly acclimates to the legal medical or recreational realities, the varieties of concentrates have expanded from the delicacies of hashish to a complex world of different textures, tastes, potencies, and purity.

Concentrates can be individually distinguished by the extraction method used during production, yet the entire category of cannabis products can be defined as the gathering of high amounts of cannabinoids and terpenes into a potent, flavorful extracted resin. Concentrates are used in joints, in edibles, and all by them self. Whether you dab, smoke, vaporize, combust, eat, or apply, products that contain cannabis concentrates or concentrated products deliver a flavorfully refined and potent marijuana product leagues beyond that of the traditional buds.

Types of Concentrates

Concentrates come in a variety of textures. Commonly, extractions are done using butane, propane, Co2, or alcohol as a vehicle to strip the plant oils and resins from the whole plant & pieces itself. While the solvent and process inspires the texture, the flavor can be affected by the time between harvest and extraction, the strain, and the equipment used. Closed-loop systems are often employed in the extraction process, ensuring the maximum amount of resins are extracted from the plant.
