Ole ’ Paddy Would be Envious of These New Rosins

Happy March , Canna Fam ! We are in the beginning stages of a recreational / adult-use market , and things are happening ! There has been a tremendous amount of new product growth for dispensaries from vendors offering new products constantly and enhancing fan favorites . As a bystander in this growth period , the variety of rosins has been the most exciting change to witness . There are options for all different palettes and needs . Here are a few new rosins to watch for at dispensaries .

Florida Kush 1g live rosin by Vivid Florida Kush has quickly become one of the most popular strains in the market , rivaling Bubba Fett ! With its high-impact effects and flavorful bud , it is no surprise that when pressed into a rosin , it is brought to a whole new tier of excellence . The rosin has a paleyellow color featuring an embossed “ V ” and a lemony-sweet , slightly gassy bouquet . Both inhale and exhale display a similar profile with notes of lemon and sugary dough , almost like a lemon sugar cookie ! The primary terpenes in this option are caryophyllene , limonene , and linalool , and all attribute to the confectionary flavors . The effects are a heightened version of the flower , starting with a relaxed heaviness behind the eyes that eventually moves towards the body , leaving one feeling at ease . Because of its relaxing tendencies , Florida Kush would be best utilized during the afternoon or evening to address pain or unwind after a stressful day .
Gelato 1g live rosin by Vibe Cannabis
Vibe Cannabis is best known for its illustrious Gelato rosin . While Gelato has already made a name for itself as a coveted strain , Vibe takes it to the next level . The rosin has a beautiful , cream-colored hue with light yellow tones and a smell to die for . The package includes hash notes , describing the scent and flavor profile of the rosin — warmed blueberry muffin smothered in Welch ’ s grape jelly . Never was there a description more apt ! On both the inhale and exhale , the sweet , berry-grape piquancy dominates . While medicating , the first effect to appear is a cerebral heaviness behind the eyes , which quickly melts into the body , leaving one feeling relaxed but not sedated . If you ’ re looking for a relaxing and flavorful experience , make sure to grab a Gelato rosin at your local dispensary .
Red Light District 1g live rosin by Proper Red Light District — a combination of Eager Beaver and Roxanne that will not disappoint ! The rosin has a dark cream hue and a bright diesel scent . The flavor , however , has more range with its sharp , berry cereal notes on the inhale and earthy notes on the exhale . The dominant terpenes in this strain combination are myrcene and limonene , which correlate with the diesel and berry flavors . The effects are almost immediate — a heavy mind fog that forces one to hit the proverbial brakes . This particularly cerebral sensation is common for most myrcene-heavy strains . As one continues to medicate , the heavy mind fog eventually makes its way toward the body , resulting in a sense of deep sedation . The combination of mind and body effects makes Red Light District an excellent choice for nighttime medicating or any person that battles chronic pain or restlessness .
Hooba-stank 1g live rosin by Headchange Hooba-Stank rosin , another Headchange masterpiece , is a dank combination of GMO and Pink Certz . The cream-colored rosin has a pungent , citrus diesel bouquet that is also noticed in the flavor palette . On the inhale , there is a rotten citrus flavor , while the exhale is smooth and gassy . The dominant terpenes in this concentrate include caryophyllene , limonene , and myrcene , which together create its distinct spoiled citrus flavor profile . The onset was mostly reminiscent of GMO — a weighted sensation behind the eyes followed by a relaxed , couchlock state . Due to its sedative properties , Hooba-Stank would be best utilized during the night as part of a wind-down routine or for the treatment of acute pain .
