Crumble

Crumble is a cannabis concentrate with a unique texture and very high levels of THC. It will typically have a yellow color with a crumbly texture.

Bubble Hash

Bubble hash is a cannabis concentrate comprising of a large quantity of trichomes, or resinous glands, that have been separated from the plant using ice-water, agitation, and a sieve. It gets its catchy name from the way it bubbles when exposed to fire.

Shatter

A cannabis extract, created by extracting the plant’s essential oils, which contains; cannabinoids, terpenes, and other chemical compounds found in the plant. The appearance of shatter is typically translucent, though its coloring can range from a bright honey-like amber to a darker yellow shade like grape-seed oil.

Crystalline | Sugar | Diamonds

The purest form of cannabis concentrate, this extract consists of a single type of cannabinoid, usually tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), or cannabidiol (CBD). “Diamonds” or THCA crystals have been trending with cannabis concentrate users over the last couple of years. Until recently, isolated THCA has been hard to find. Now, you can find them isolated or more commonly drenched with terpenes in jars labeled “sauce.” In many cases diamonds are the most pure and the most potent concentrate.

Distillate

A translucent oil devoid of the waxes or unwanted compounds from the original plant. Distillate is sought after due to its potency and versatility. It can be used to dab, vaporize, and mix in as an ingredient in edibles, topicals, and other products. These distillate concentrates are earned through an extensive refinement process that separates compounds from cannabis plant matter.

Rosin

Rosin is a cannabis concentrate created through an extraction process that changes fine hash using pressure and heat. It has a very high cannabinoid and terpene concentration, rosin is further differentiated from other concentrate products because of four important factors. Purity. Potency. Pliability.

Badder | Budder

Badder | Budder cannabis refers to nearly all cannabis concentrate that are creamy in consistency.

Dry Sift | Kief

Dry sift or kief is the collection of small, resinous trichome glands primarily found on mature cannabis flower buds. Trichomes can range from a milky and clear to amber colors. There are three different types of trichomes:

- Bulbous: Undetectable by the human eye and smaller than the thickness of human hair.
- Capitate Sessile: Longer stalks than bulbous trichomes
- Capitate Stalked: Most common trichomes found and contain a basal cell stalk and gland head.
  It’s a hands-on approach to separating the trichome heads from the cannabis or hemp plant material. The dry sift technique uses screens with extremely fine mesh to hand-sift the dried flowers or trim, removing the resinous glands and refining the extract into a granular consistency.
