Live Resin- Lucky Extracts Live Resin – Romulan
Live resin is a cannabis concentrate made from fresh-frozen cannabis flower, in which plants are frozen immediately after harvesting, whereas other extraction processes typically use buds that have been dried and cured. This process ensures a greater retention of terpenes in the finished product.
Benefits of live resin.
When freezing plant directly after harvesting, trichomes stay intact and don’t have the chance to degrade during drying and curing. This gives live resin a higher amount of terpenes compared to extracts that use dried flower.
Because of these higher terpene levels, live resins are extremely fragrant and flavorful. But high terpene levels don’t just make it taste better—more terpenes add to the entourage effect, and the overall experience for the consumer.
Live resins also tend to have a more sauce-like consistency than other concentrates, such as shatter or wax. This thinner consistency makes them easier to handle and ideal for vape cartridges, which is why they have become so popular for consumers and processors in recent years.
Live resin is a solvent-based concentrate, made with butane, propane, ethanol, or CO2. Many processors use a proprietary blend of solvents in a closed-loop system to create them. Each solvent has its own benefits and drawbacks, and using a blend of many can mitigate negatives and create a more complex concentrate.
Live rosin is a solventless concentrate. Rosin is a concentrate created from heat and pressure. Flower, kief, or hash is put in a filter bag, the bag is placed in a hydraulic press with heated plates, and the plates compress the cannabis to create rosin. A rosin is considered a live rosin if the starting plant material hasn’t been dried or cured. The benefits are the same as live resin—a higher terpene content, more flavor, and a more pronounced entourage effect.
In short, when you see “live” in front of a concentrate, regardless of how it is processed, it means the starting plant material has not been dried or cured.
Strain Information
Indica
THC: 20% – 24%, CBD: 1%, CBN: 1%
Romulan, naturally, gets its name from the hostile alien race in Star Trek. It’s a fitting history, as outer space is the perfect backdrop for this indica strain out of British Columbia. Topping out at 20-24% THC, Romulan is quite potent. It’s almost pure indica with a small amount of the sativa-dominant White Rhino hybrid, but its full origins are a mystery. Romulan has a sweet earthy smell and taste, with hints of pine and citrus. It produces a deeply relaxed body high with a dreamy, floating sensation. Like all indicas, Romulan can be effective at treating anxiety, though it’s best for pain. It’s also used to treat depression and lack of appetite. Couch-lock is common when smoking Romulan, so it’s best saved for late nights or rainy days at home. This strain is popular in legal markets in the American West, less so in other regions. Though not exactly a top-shelf strain, Romulan rates well among users, and it’s a favorite of many medical marijuana patients. It can be overpowering if used in high concentrations, with possible dizziness, paranoia, and headaches.
