TUSTIN, Calif., Dec. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ABSTRAX, an industry leader in the study and production of cannabis and botanically derived terpenes, has partnered with the Trichome Institute to develop and distribute the very first cannabis aromatic training kit for interpening, opening the door for a new generation of cannabis sommeliers.
"We are thrilled to partner with the Trichome Institute, as the industry and consumers will greatly benefit from this groundbreaking aroma kit," said Max Koby, Co-Founder and CEO of ABSTRAX. "The Interpening Aromatic Kit utilizes an easy-to-follow, genius methodology that we believe will usher in a new generation of cannabis sommeliers and a much greater understanding of the numerous cannabis strains and how they can best serve each consumer."
Utilizing ABSTRAX'S terpenes and the Trichome Institute's interpening methodology, the Interpening Aromatic Training Kit has been designed to walk cannabis sommeliers through the most complex aspect of interpening — the process of aroma scent perception to gauge the different effects.
The Interpening Aromatic Training Kit includes:
Six (6) liquid terpenes: Myrcene, limonene, beta-caryophyllene, linalool, terpinolene, and pinene.
Three (3) solid (crystalline) terpenes: Camphene, fenchyl alcohol, and menthol.
Three (3) popular cannabis varietals: Gelato, Blue Dream, and All Natural Jack.
Also included are detailed instructions on how to gauge trigeminal nerve perception, improve common terpene memorization, and gain familiarity with the broad to narrow-leaf aromatic spectrum. This training will help you understand the interpening process of gauging the psychotropic spectrum of any marijuana hybrid type regardless of strain name or lab test.
"Each terpene (and combination of terpenes) hits the trigeminal nerve in different ways, and understanding exactly where the aroma is perceived can help predict if the effects will be stimulating, sedative, or in between," said Max Montrose, President of the Tricome Institute.
Mastering this skill is vital for the progression of the industry and the brands that serve a rapidly growing customer base around the world. With thousands of cannabis types, varying effects, and unreliable strain names — Trichome's methodology helps pave the way for the understanding the industry has been seeking for decades.
"Now, the psychotropic effects of cannabis strains can be predicted and consumers can be led to the products they will most enjoy and benefit from," said Koby. "Not to mention, it will give brands inspiration to develop products with greater efficacy and impact."
