Premium in everything but the price.
Our in-house team of flavor chemists craft each profile from scratch based upon our own plant analytics. You could call them bespoke, handmade, or even custom. We just call them Premium.
Unique.
Accurate. Precise.
We utilize the most advanced (by far) strain analysis in the industry. This allows us to test for over 400 compounds found in cannabis while other terpene companies usually see only 30-50. It’s like using an electron microscope versus a magnifying glass.

Can’t use it.
To put it another way, our analytical capabilities are at least 10x greater than any other American terp company. It’s impossible to formulate an accurate terpene profile if you can’t see 90% of the ingredients. We use this wealth of data to craft the most accurate and precise terpene profiles.

What are Premium Strain Profiles?
Premium Strain Profiles are perfect for consumers who want the flavor and effect of cannabis without smelling like they just hotboxed their car.They’re scalable, consistent, and authentic to their source material. Our in-house team of flavor chemists craft each profile from scratch based upon our own plant analytics - something no other terpene company does.Premium Strains are classic botanical terpene profiles. They are formulated to have the same flavor and effect of the cannabis strains they’re modeled after, but they won’t smell skunky because they don’t include cannasulfur compounds.

What’s the difference between Premium Strain Profiles and the Native Series or the Signature Series?
The Native and Signature Series are both collections of Advanced Terpene Profiles. That means that they largely include cannasulfur compounds (CSCs) to provide the exact skunky flavor and aroma of cannabis.Premium Strains are classic botanical terpene profiles. They’re still modeled after individual cannabis strains and confirmed through a sensory panel, but they don’t contain CSCs.Depending on your customer base, this could be exactly what they’re looking for. The flavor, effect, and terpene aroma of cannabis without reeking of skunk. Think discrete.Premium Strain Profiles are a more concealable, low-key form of cannabis enjoyment.

How much should I use?
We suggest a maximum of 8% total added terpenes in any vape/cannabis/hemp product. Too much of a good thing will ruin the experience. Click here to visit our mixing calculator.

How do I pronounce this stuff?
Yeah, don’t worry, these are uncommon words (and there are a lot of them). We’ve heard them called everything from “terpentines” to “terrapins.” Everyone starts somewhere.
Starting with the basics: terpenes is pronounced “turr-peens.”
Check out our Terpene Isolates. We have a pronunciation guide on each of the individual product pages. That’ll help get you started. -
What are terpenes?
Here’s the simple explanation.
You’ve known terpenes your entire life. If you’ve ever smelled a rose, peeled an orange, or sat next to a Christmas tree you’ve experienced terpenes in action.
Terpenes are what give plants their flavor, aroma, and some of their effects. And, if you think about it, cannabis is a plant just like roses and pine trees. So why does that matter?
You’ve probably been on Leafly and seen strains that make you energized and focused while others lock you into the couch. Do you know why different strains do different things?
TERPENES.
Those effects aren’t coming from THC (the stuff that gets you high), it’s the terpenes that do that! Think of THC as the gas pedal and terpenes as the steering wheel. THC gets the engine running but terpenes determine where you’re going to go.
Since terpenes are found in almost every plant in nature, we’re able to extract them from other sources (like mangoes, lemongrass, whatever) and blend them together to create the flavor, aroma, and effect of cannabis… without cannabis.
Terpenes provide varying degrees of effects on their own, but they really shine when they’re paired with a cannabinoid to unlock the Entourage Effect.
