Understanding the Aromatic World of Cannabis
At Simply Pure, we’re passionate about educating our customers on the intricate details of cannabis. Today, we’re diving into the fascinating world of terpenes, the aromatic compounds that give cannabis its distinctive scent and contribute to its effects.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are organic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They’re responsible for the plant’s aroma and play a crucial role in its overall effects. Some common cannabis terpenes include:
- Myrcene: Known for its earthy, musky scent
- Limonene: Citrusy and uplifting
- Pinene: Pine-scented and potentially memory-enhancing
- Linalool: Floral aroma with calming properties
The Entourage Effect
Terpenes work synergistically with cannabinoids like THC and CBD, creating what’s known as the “entourage effect.” This phenomenon suggests that the combination of compounds in cannabis produces more significant effects than any single compound alone.
