In the rapidly evolving world of the cannabis industry, one of the burgeoning areas is the introduction and adoption of edibles infused with live rosin and live resin THC.
Both offer unique benefits in terms of potency, flavor, and the full-spectrum cannabis experience. Come with us as we explore these high-quality edibles and how their unique characteristics bring a new perspective to THC-infused edibles.
What are Live Resin and Live Rosin?
Live rosin and live resin are terms that you’re probably hearing a lot these days in the cannabis scene but understanding what they actually mean can help you determine the right choice for you. So, what’s live rosin? What’s live resin? And what’s the difference between live resin and rosin?
What’s Live Rosin?
First, live rosin is a solventless extract made from cannabis plant material that’s been frozen or taken straight to extraction. Live rosin is made using low heat and high pressure to squeeze the resinous sap from the plant material.
This method retains the plant’s valuable terpene profile, which is essential for enjoying the flavor and aroma of the plant.
How is Live Rosin Made?
The process begins with fresh-frozen, high-quality cannabis flower that is first processed in ice water to make bubble hash. The bubble hash is then pressed with a heated press, producing a rich and potent extract: live rosin.
How is Live Resin Made?
Like live rosin, live resin is made with fresh or freshly frozen plant material, but unlike live rosin, the process of making live resin uses hydrocarbon solvents for extraction. This method is highly efficient at stripping the desirable compounds from the plant material.
How is Live Resin Made?
The frozen cannabis is blasted with a hydrocarbon mixture in a closed, pressurized system. Solvents are then purged with heat in a vacuum to leave behind a potent concentrate while preserving the delicate terpenes and cannabinoids.
What Are the Benefits of Live Rosin & Live Resin Edibles?
Now that we’ve covered the difference between live resin and rosin, let’s look at how they enhance the benefits of THC-infused edibles. Both provide an enhanced flavor profile due to their high terpene content.
Terpenes are the mysterious but aromatic compounds found in cannabis that give different strains their unique scent and flavor. When you bite into an edible made with these extracts, you’re getting a gourmet, true-to-plant cannabis experience
Live rosin and live resin edibles can also offer higher potency than other extract products. They are both rich in cannabinoids, including THC, delivering potent and long-lasting effects. This is especially beneficial for medicinal users seeking powerful, sustained relief.
Finally, both deliver a full-spectrum experience. These extracts preserve the wide range of cannabinoids and terpenes found in the plant, which can work together in what’s known as the “entourage effect.” The entourage effect is thought to enhance the therapeutic effects of edible THC.
Final Thoughts
From understanding the unique characteristics of live rosin and live resin to recognizing their advantages in creating flavorful and potent edibles with THC, these concentrates have indeed found a permanent home in the cannabis industry. As research continues and these products become more widely available, the benefits of these products to our overall cannabis experience will be evident and undeniable.
