What is Rosin?
Cannabis comes in many forms, each offering a unique experience. Today, we’re focusing on one of the most sought-after and high-quality products on the market: rosin.
Rosin is a cannabis concentrate, produced through a process called “rosin pressing”. This process involves applying heat and pressure to cannabis flowers or trim, which pushes out and extracts the sticky, resinous substance. With rosin rising in popularity in recent years, it is a common product found at cannabis dispensaries. 
Key Benefits of Rosin:
- Natural Extraction Process: Made only with heat and pressure, without solvents or chemicals. This makes it a great choice for people who prefer natural forms of cannabis.
- High Potency: Cannabis rosin can reach up to 90% THC, making it one of the most potent concentrates.
- Versatility: Rosin can be consumed in multiple ways, such as dabbing or adding to edibles. It can also be used in the kitchen as an ingredient in edibles, which can provide a unique and effective way to enjoy your elevation.
- Preserves Terpenes and Flavor: Rosin is high in terpenes and cannabinoids such as CBD, CBN, and even CBG, which means that it is more complex, more potent, and more flavorful than your standard concentrates.
Types of Rosin
The biggest difference to creating various types of rosin is the part of the cannabis plant that is used in the rosin pressing process.
Flower Rosin
Flower rosin is created by pressing dried cannabis flower. It is the most popular type of rosin since it uses the entire bud and does not require extra processing. Flower rosin is less potent than other types, making it a great starting point for first-time users who want a flavorful and approachable experience.
Hash Rosin
Hash rosin is made by pressing hash, which is created by separating the trichomes from the cannabis plant. Because it uses this refined material, hash rosin is known for being more potent and is often preferred by experienced consumers.
Dry Sift Rosin
Dry sift rosin uses the trichome glands (sometimes called “kief”) collected from cannabis. It produces a clean and strong concentrate that offers rich flavor and potency.
How To Use Rosin
Since rosin is so versatile, there are many ways to use rosin and enjoy it’s benefits in different ways.
Dab: The most popular way to experience rosin, delivering fast-acting effects.
Vape: A portable option for enjoying rosin on the go.
Edibles: Provides a longer-lasting effect when infused into food or drinks.
Add to a bong or bowl: Sprinkle on top of flower for an extra kick.
Joint or blunt: Mix rosin with ground cannabis for added potency and flavor.
