Terpenes are essential to the CBD experience. Without them, the effects of CBD diminish massively. That’s why our extraction methods ensure the whole cannabis plant is used to its full potential, taking 100% of the botanical, aromatherapeutic terpenes on offer. Myrcene, commonly known as the mother of terpenes, is the most abundant terpene in the cannabis plant and contains a number of remarkable mental and physical benefits.
Where is Myrcene found?
While there are hundreds of terpenes that can be found in the cannabis plant, myrcene is the most abundant. The terpene can also be found in a variety of herbs such as thyme and basil, as well as more luscious plants like lemongrass, eucalyptus and mango. Myrcene also contributes to that distinctive hoppy taste found in a nice cold pint.
What does Myrcene taste like?
Like all terpenes, myrcene has a very unique flavour profile. The terpene has a wonderfully earthy and musky aroma, that teases with a hint of spice. Myrcene also contributes to the mild sweetness of a lot of cannabis strains. If you’ve ever smelt that characteristic ‘funk’ smell in cannabis, you’ve probably sniffed some myrcene terpenes.
How can Myrcene help me?
Every terpene has its own characteristic properties and myrcene is no different. The terpene has been used for its abilities to soothe the mind and body for centuries. Many Mexicans use myrcene-rich lemongrass in herbal tea as a way to relax muscles and calm the mind. Consuming CBD products with high levels of myrcene could also assist with insomnia, due to the terpene’s sedative properties, helping you drift off to sleep much faster.
