Bellingham has long been a hub for cannabis lovers, and as the industry continues to evolve, more cannaseurs are looking for cleaner, more natural extracts. *Rosin enters the chat.*
Rosin, one of the purest, most flavorful, and solvent-free cannabis concentrates available today is the latest choice for an elevated experience. Let’s explore what makes rosin truly kick ass.
What is Rosin?
Rosin is a high-quality cannabis concentrate made without the use of solvents like butane or CO2. Instead, it’s carefully crafted using heat and pressure, resulting in a potent, terpene-rich extract that captures the essence of flower (or hash). Because no chemicals are involved in the process, rosin is often considered one of the cleanest and most natural forms of cannabis extract. (We love that for rosin.)
How is Rosin Made?
The process of making rosin isn’t as complicated as you might think. Here’s the tea:
Starting Material
Rosin can be made from flower, kief, or hash. The higher-quality the starting material, the better the end result will be.
Heat and Pressure
The starting material is placed between parchment paper and pressed using a heated rosin press (or even a hair straightener for small-batch DIY rosin).
Extraction
As pressure is applied, the heat causes the oils and cannabinoids to be squeezed out, creating a golden, sticky concentrate.
Collection and Storage
Once extracted, the rosin is carefully collected and stored in an airtight container to preserve its potency and terpene profile.
Unlike other concentrates that require complex extraction methods with solvents, rosin offers a cleaner, more natural product that doesn’t leave behind any unwanted residuals.
Why is Rosin Better?
Fresh Outta The Shower Clean
Since rosin is made without solvents, there’s no risk of residual chemicals making it one of the cleanest concentrates to consume.
The Taste That Bites Back
The low-temperature pressing process preserves more terpenes, enhancing the flavor and psychoactive effects of the final product.
More Versatile Than A Swiss Army Knife
Whether you’re a dabber, a smoker, or an eater, rosin can be consumed in a variety of ways – perfect for tailoring your experience to your preferences.
