People Also Ask
What is live resin?
Live resin is a cannabis concentrate made from fresh-frozen plants rather than dried ones, which preserves more of the plant's terpenes and gives it a stronger flavor and aroma.
Why is it called live resin?
The 'live' refers to freezing the plant while it's fresh, right after harvest, so the volatile terpenes that would otherwise be lost during drying are retained.
What makes live resin different from other concentrates?
Its defining feature is flavor. By starting from fresh-frozen material it keeps a fuller terpene profile, so it tastes and smells much closer to the living plant.
