When it comes to choosing cannabis, most consumers first glance at THC and CBD levels—but the unsung heroes of the experience are undoubtedly terpenes. These aromatic compounds are what give each strain its unique flavor, aroma, and subtle effect profile. At Dank Poet, the flower selection is thoughtfully curated to highlight key terpenes—like myrcene, limonene, linalool, caryophyllene, humulene, and pinene—that enhance both sensory enjoyment and the entourage of cannabinoid effects. Let’s take a closer look at how these terpenes shape the experience across Dank Poet’s offerings.
What Are Terpenes, and Why They Matter
Terpenes are organic compounds found in many plants—including cannabis—that create distinct aromas and influence mind and body effects. While THC and CBD dominate headlines, terpenes play a crucial role in modulating how users perceive and feel each strain. Research shows that terpenes may offer anti-inflammatory, relaxing, or uplifting benefits beyond their aromatic contributions.
Dank Poet makes terpene profiles visible in their menu, helping users choose intentionally based on aroma, flavor, and desired effects.
