Let’s dive into the world of these cannabis concentrates to understand their processing methods, how they affect flavor and high, and why Duke City Organix is your go-to source for premium selections.



Rosin: Duke City Organix


What Are Live Rosin, Live Resin, and Wax?


  • Live Rosin is a solventless concentrate extracted from freshly harvested, flash-frozen cannabis plants. The process involves applying heat and pressure to the cannabis material, which releases the rich oils and trichomes. Because no solvents are used, live rosin is considered one of the purest forms of cannabis concentrates. The resulting product is a golden, sap-like substance known for its exceptional flavor profile and potent effects.

  • Live Resin is similar to live rosin in that it also begins with freshly harvested, flash-frozen cannabis plants. However, the extraction process differs. Live resin is produced using solvents, typically butane or propane, to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant material. This method preserves the plant’s natural terpene profile, resulting in a flavorful and aromatic concentrate that’s slightly more liquid in consistency compared to rosin.

  • Wax is another popular form of cannabis concentrate, but unlike live rosin and live resin, it can be made from both dried and cured cannabis plants. The extraction process typically involves the use of solvents like butane, which are then purged to leave behind a sticky, wax-like substance. Wax can vary in consistency, ranging from a softer "budder" to a firmer "crumble."


How Processing Affects Flavor and High


The processing methods of live rosin, live resin, and wax significantly impact their flavor and potency.


  • Flavor: Live rosin and live resin are known for their robust flavor profiles, thanks to the preservation of terpenes during the extraction process. Live resin, in particular, is often celebrated for its strong, aromatic scent and rich taste, as the solvent-based extraction method captures a broader range of terpenes. Live rosin, while equally flavorful, offers a more pure and unadulterated taste since no solvents are involved. Wax, depending on the quality and method of production, can have a varied flavor profile. However, it often lacks the depth and complexity of live concentrates due to the potential degradation of terpenes during the drying and curing process.

  • High: In terms of effects, live rosin and live resin are both known for delivering a potent and nuanced high. The presence of a full-spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes contributes to what’s known as the "entourage effect," where the compounds work together to produce a more balanced and powerful experience. Wax can also be potent, but the high may feel less dynamic compared to live rosin or resin due to the possible loss of some cannabinoids and terpenes during processing.
