What are Diamonds?
Diamonds are pure THCA bonded crystals. They are called diamonds because of their clarity and how rich they make you feel. THCA is the precursor of THC. With the introduction of heat, THCA becomes THC which gives the psychoactive effects we expect from cannabis.
Starting with a base cannabis extract, there is a high concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes. One of those cannabinoids is THCA. By encouraging crystalization and bonding, we get these beautiful diamonds to form. These diamonds then are mixed with the remaining extract solution which is high in terpenes and other cannabinoids for consumption.
