Red Biscotti Shatter

Shatter

A thin, hard, translucent sheet of cannabis concentrate that snaps or shatters like glass when cool. It is a solvent extract, most often made with butane or propane. The solvent is removed in a thin layer under vacuum without stirring, so the extract sets in a smooth, glass-like state instead of forming crystals.

Cured Resin

A cannabis concentrate extracted with a hydrocarbon solvent (butane or propane) from dried and cured cannabis rather than fresh-frozen cannabis. The solvent is then purged, and the lab report tests for any residual solvents.

Hybrid

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.
