Distillate vs Rosin Debate

๐Ÿ’ง Extraction First mentioned: Ep. 088

The ongoing debate between cannabinoid distillate (a purified, terpene-stripped concentrate) and rosin (a solventless full-spectrum extract) regarding medical efficacy, flavor, and consumer preference.

The panel debated the merits of distillate versus rosin at length. Distillate offers high potency but strips away the terpene profile and entourage effect. Rosin preserves the full plant profile including terpenes. An example was given of running Gorilla Glue as rosin, producing a very clean white rosin butter. The discussion touched on how regulation would affect both products differently, and how live resin and live rosin were becoming the premium products sought by connoisseurs.
