What are terpenes? “Terps,” as they are sometimes called, are essential oils in the plant that help determine many different factors of a strain. Terpenes define everything from the smell and flavor of a particular strain to its euphoric effects and medical benefits when combined with the cannabinoid content (such as THC or CBD).
