It’s time to set the record straight on these three THC Concentrates. We know. They all look the same, and all come with a vape pen. But trust us, there’s a HUGE difference between the three which causes them to all have different effects, tastes and smell.
K.I.N.D. Concentrates Nectar
How it's made?
Nectar is made using K.I.N.D.’s proprietary manufacturing process to ensure high strength, smoothness, and quality.
Without wanting to give too much of the game away, creating our pure Nectar involves a steam distilled nug run process using the entire flower. The resulting Nectar concentrates are then loaded into Nectar carts for easy filling and re-filling of your vape.
Steam distilled
To the uninitiated, it might be good to know that steam distillation is a process that’s been used to extract essential oils for literally hundreds of years. You can also use it to distill alcohol. But just because it’s old school, it doesn’t mean it’s got nothing to teach the “younger” methods on the market.
For a start, there aren’t any harmful solvents or other ingredients introduced at any part of the process. Everything is done with water and heat. You simply add plant matter to a distillation tank. The steam brings the oils to the top, where they pass through a condenser. The resultant mix of water and oils is then distilled to separate them.
That’s the basics at least. The K.I.N.D. method is a little special. For example, terpenes are removed at the beginning of the process and reintroduced just before completion.
Nug run
If you really want to understand what’s in your Nectar vape carts, you need to know what a nug run is.
A “ nug run” is a term applied to the process of creating potent cannabis concentrates using cured cannabis nugs. The nug – more properly referred to as the cannabis bud, the part that’s normally left after you trim away the water and sugar leaves – is the part of the cannabis plant that contains the vast majority of the trichomes. In turn, these are where you will find the majority of the cannabinoids, such as THC.
This means that concentrates made from nugs, like those in your Nectar vape cartridge, are the strongest and most flavorful you can find. If you want to really get the full aroma and flavor of the original plant’s terpene profile, a nug run is the way to do it.
How’s the high?
Nectar cartridges really blow what’s considered a “potent” THC level for a cannabis concentrate out of the water. Regularly testing at 80%+ THC, they are some of the most potent cannabis concentrate products on the market in Arizona.
If you are new to experimenting with what THC or cannabis concentrates, in general, can do for you, it’s best to take things easy with your first Nectar vape experience. Actually, even if you consider yourself a seasoned professional, we’d still recommend starting off slow.
Nectar vapes are very potent indeed. They also give you an experience that’s about as close as it’s possible to get as smoking the specific strain of cannabis they are made from as possible. Only without all of the negative effects of smoking.
This means that your high, while always potent, can vary in essence quite a bit. Just as it would when you change up the type of marijuana you’re smoking.
How does it taste?
If you prefer the real, authentic taste of actual cannabis when you’re inhaling, a Nectar vape pen is just what you’re looking for. Because the concentrate inside Nectar vape cartridges is made from a nug run using the entire flower of the cannabis plant, you’re getting the true experience that strain of marijuana offers.
Plus, thanks to our proprietary process and steam distillation method, there are never any residual cutting agents, solvents, or analytical grade terpenes. The concentrate inside your Nectar THC vape cartridge is five times refined, smooth, and leaves behind a lasting, natural flavor after every draw.
How does it smell?
Uh, AMAZING. You get that flower smell without the linger.
K.I.N.D. Concentrates Live Resin
How it's made?
Our Live Resin is a concentrated form of cannabis oil created from flash, frozen flower, meaning we freeze the flower before it’s dried and cured
How's the high?
Award-winning worthy. Seriously!
Our Northern Lights and Jack Herer Live Resin cartridges have won awards. We highly suggest Northern Lights (indica) if you’re looking seeking pain relief for muscle aches, spasms or if you fight insomnia. If you’re trying to stay awake, you may want to pick Jack Herer (sativa) to avoid that groggy feeling.
How does it taste?
It tastes like weed, of course! In all seriousness, this product is well-known for its full-bodied terpenes profile (the stuff in cannabis that gives each plant it’s unique taste and smell).
How does it smell?
Similar to Nectar. You get a little smell without the linger.
Oil Stix
How it's made?
As one of our Powered by K.I.N.D. Concentrates line, Oil Stix is made through carbon dioxide extraction using low heat and pressure.
How's the high?
As a cannabis oil concentrate, the product packs a punch in just one-hit. The effects are long-lasting and give you the ability to micro-dose if you need to medicate throughout the day.
How does it taste?
Due to the creation process, Oil Stix holds a consistently, rich cannabis flavor.
How does it smell?
Similar to Nectar. Very light smell that dissipates quickly.
If you’re still unsure which one to try next, just ask one of your local budtenders! Or you could just try them all!!
