The Science Behind Cannabis Terpenes: Enhancing Your Experience


Understanding Cannabis Terpenes

At HoneyGrove Dispensary, we believe in educating our customers about the intricate details of cannabis. Today, we’re diving into the fascinating world of terpenes and their role in enhancing your cannabis experience.

What Are Terpenes?

Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They’re responsible for the distinct scents and flavors of different cannabis strains. But their importance goes beyond just smell and taste.

The Entourage Effect

Terpenes work synergistically with cannabinoids like THC and CBD, contributing to what’s known as the “entourage effect.” This phenomenon suggests that the combined action of various cannabis compounds produces a more significant impact than any single component alone.

Common Cannabis Terpenes

Here are some prevalent terpenes found in cannabis:

  • Myrcene: Known for its earthy, musky aroma
  • Limonene: Offers a citrusy scent
  • Pinene: Provides a pine-like fragrance
  • Linalool: Contributes floral notes
