Red, White, & Blueberry - Tan Lines Nectar Pouch

A liquid cannabis extract in a dropper bottle or with an oral syringe. A tincture is traditionally made with alcohol; however, most tinctures sold today use an oil base, commonly MCT (coconut-derived) oil. Most are made with distillate unless the listing names another extract. The label gives milligrams per milliliter (mg/ml) and per bottle, and the dropper is marked for measuring.

A tincture can be taken two ways:

1. A tincture dose held under the tongue (sublingual) for about a minute. Some of the dose is absorbed through the lining of the mouth, and effects may begin in 15 to 45 minutes.
2. Swallowed, acting like an edible. Effects begin in roughly 30 minutes to 2 hours.

In practice, part of a sublingual dose is swallowed too, so many people get a mix of both.

A cannabis concentrate made without solvents (solventless). Live rosin is made by pressing ice-water hash extracted from fresh-frozen plant material. Keeping the material frozen, or "live", preserves volatile compounds that may be lost during the drying/curing process.

A plant bred from both indica-type and sativa-type parents. Menus use "Hybrid" for effects described as in between or mixed. The label is often narrowed to indica-dominant hybrid, sativa-dominant hybrid, or balanced ("50/50"). Any percentages given are the breeder's estimate from the plant's family tree, not a measured one.

After decades of crossbreeding, nearly all modern commercial strains are hybrids in the genetic sense, regardless of the label they carry. The label says more about how a product is positioned than about the plant. A listed lineage (the cross) is more specific, but a strain name doesn't guarantee chemistry either.
