Ep. 001

Over 300 aromatic compounds in cannabis responsible for scent, flavour, and modulating cannabinoid effects. The overlooked frontier of cannabis science.

Full Melt

The gold standard of hash quality. Pure trichome heads that melt completely and cleanly when heat is applied, leaving no residue.

Ep. 001

Capitate Stalked Trichomes

Glandular trichomes with a distinct stalk and bulbous head containing the highest concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes. The primary target of extraction.

Ep. 001
