Cannabis terpenes are the key contributors to a strain’s unique flavor and aroma. Each terpene compound—such as limonene, myrcene, or pinene—adds its own scent notes, ranging from citrus and fruit to pine, spice, or fuel. The specific mix of terpenes in a cannabis strain determines whether it tastes sweet, earthy, herbal, or sharp. These natural oils create the distinctive experience people associate with different cultivars.
