At MANA Supply, we’re committed to educating our ohana about the fascinating world of cannabis. Today, we’re diving into the intriguing realm of terpenes and their impact on your cannabis experience.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They’re responsible for the distinct smells and flavors you encounter when you visit our dispensaries. But terpenes do more than just provide pleasant aromas – they can significantly influence the effects of cannabis.
Common Cannabis Terpenes:
- Myrcene: Often described as earthy or musky
- Limonene: Citrusy and uplifting
- Pinene: Pine-like aroma, associated with alertness
- Linalool: Floral scent, known for calming properties
The Entourage Effect
Terpenes work synergistically with cannabinoids like THC and CBD in what’s known as the “entourage effect.” This interaction can enhance or modify the overall effects of cannabis, potentially providing a more balanced and tailored experience.
Whether you’re new to cannabis or a long-time consumer, understanding terpenes can help you make more informed choices about the products that best suit your needs. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff at Mana Supply are always ready to guide you through the complexities of terpene profiles and help you find the perfect product for your desired experience.
Terpene Preservation
To fully appreciate the benefits of terpenes, proper storage is crucial. We recommend keeping your cannabis products in a cool, dark place to preserve their terpene content. This ensures that you’ll get the full spectrum of effects and aromas each time you consume.
At Mana Supply, we’re passionate about bringing people together and helping them grow their cannabis knowledge. By understanding the role of terpenes, you’re taking an important step in your cannabis journey. Visit any of our dispensary locations to learn more and become part of our ever-growing ohana!
