Curious about concentrates but not sure what sets one apart? We’re here to help! 🤓🌟 This week’s product spotlight highlights differences between two concentrate types from one of our favorite cultivators, Aeriz. Cannabis concentrates are an excellent choice for those looking for high potency without a prolonged sesh. 🌱 Whether you’re consuming via rig, e-rig or using concentrate to enhance flower, mastering the differences between concentrate types is key 🔑 to getting the most out of your experience. 🍯✨
Live Resin: * solvent-based * can only be safely extracted in a lab * ranges in color from light amber to yellow-gold * has a moist, shiny looking exterior with a rich smell * comes in various textures - budder, sugar, resin, etc.
Live Rosin: * solventless * safest to extract * terpene retention is higher than regular rosin * is a direct reflection of the quality of the starting material * because a solvent is not introduced in the process, the chemical structure of terpenes and cannabinoids within the flower are unaltered
Why choose one over the other? Resin: more cost effective, versatile, terpenes are stable at room temperature Rosin: arguable healthier due to the absence of any residual solvent, high quality form of extract, more true to flower
