In January we introduced you to our terpenes of the month: Linalool and Limonene. This month, we are going to focus on Myrcene (mur-seen) and Caryophyllene (carry-off-uh-leen)
These two terpenes are often paired together because of their similar sets of benefits, both rallying around giving you peace of mind. This week we will briefly introduce you to each terpene, its flavor, and its benefits. In the coming weeks we will dive further into each terpene and provide you with the data you need and the answers you want to continue on your cannabis journey to your best self!
As always, we encourage you to ask your budtenders questions and recommendations on exactly what you’re looking for.
