What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They are responsible for the distinctive smells and flavors associated with different cannabis strains. But terpenes do more than just provide pleasant aromas; they also play a crucial role in the plant’s effects on the human body.
Common Cannabis Terpenes
Some of the most prevalent terpenes in cannabis include:
- Myrcene: Known for its earthy, musky aroma
- Limonene: Provides a citrusy scent
- Pinene: Offers a pine-like fragrance
- Linalool: Contributes floral notes
- Caryophyllene: Adds a spicy, peppery aroma
The Entourage Effect
Terpenes work synergistically with cannabinoids like THC and CBD to produce what’s known as the “entourage effect.” This phenomenon suggests that the combined action of various cannabis compounds leads to more profound and nuanced effects than any single component alone.
