What is Live Resin?
Live resin is a type of cannabis concentrate that is quickly becoming popular among cannabis enthusiasts. It is a type of extract that is made using fresh frozen cannabis plants instead of traditional, dried cannabis buds. The fresh frozen plants are immediately frozen after harvest, preserving the terpenes and other valuable compounds found in cannabis. This process results in a high-quality concentrate that captures the original aroma, flavor, and effects of the strain it was made from. Live resin is made using a process called hydrocarbon extraction. During this process, a solvent such as butane, propane, or ethanol is used to extract the cannabinoids, terpenes, and other compounds from the fresh frozen cannabis plant matter. After the extraction process is complete, the concentrate is then purged of any remaining solvents. The result is a potent and flavorful concentrate that is full of terpenes and cannabinoids. Live resin is known for having a much more flavorful and potent aroma than other types of cannabis concentrates. The terpenes in the concentrate provide a unique flavor and aroma that is much more complex than what is found in traditional dried cannabis buds. This makes live resin a great choice for those who are looking for a more intense flavor and aroma from their concentrate.
