What Are Cannabis Terpenes?

When you step into Glenrio Smoke Shop, you might notice the distinct aromatic profiles of different cannabis strains. These distinctive scents aren’t just pleasant – they’re produced by natural compounds called terpenes.

Common Terpenes and Their Effects

Here’s what you should know about the most prevalent terpenes:

• Myrcene – Creates a relaxing, earthy aroma
• Limonene – Offers citrusy, uplifting notes
• Pinene – Provides that fresh pine scent
• Linalool – Contributes floral, lavender-like notes

Why Terpenes Matter

Understanding terpenes can help you make more informed decisions about your cannabis products. These compounds work alongside cannabinoids to create what’s known as the “entourage effect,” potentially enhancing the overall experience.
