Distillate
Distillate is the most refined form of cannabis concentrate — a clear-to-amber oil with near-neutral flavor and very high cannabinoid concentration. Because terpenes are removed during distillation, distillate is often the base for strain-specific vape cartridges (with cannabis-derived terpenes reintroduced) and edibles that need a consistent potency without adding flavor. On its own, distillate dabs smoothly and works well for adults who want clean potency over flavor.
