What terpenes are
Terpenes are naturally occurring compounds that contribute to the aroma and flavour of cannabis products. They are commonly referenced in product descriptions alongside potency information.
How descriptions are typically used
Aroma and flavour descriptions help set expectations for taste and smell. They are a helpful comparison tool, but they do not describe potency or predict a specific effect on their own.
Using descriptions to compare products
If aroma or flavour matters to you, use the product description alongside potency and format details to narrow down your options before ordering.
