Terpenes are sought after for their aromas, flavors and synergistic properties.
Floral and fragrant it’s commonly used in aromatherapy. Linalool is a powerful terpene due to its effects on serotonin receptors.
With notes of spice, stress-relieving caryophyllene is notable for its ability to act as both a terpene and a cannabinoid.
Prior to harvest, α-Humulene plays a pivotal role in the plant’s defense system, allowing it to deter pests while preventing fungal infestations.
The most prevalent terpene in modern cannabis. A medicinal shrub from Brazil, β-Myrcene has been used to treat diabetes, diarrhea, dysentery and hypertension.

Very often found in strains abundant in CBD, α-Pinene is often sought after for its uplifting effects.
