Humulene Terpene Strains: Effects, Benefits, and Exceptional Vaping Experiences

Terpenes play a pivotal role in differentiating the effects, aroma, and taste across cannabis strains. Specifically, humulene (often referenced as alpha-humulene terpene) brings forth a distinctive earthy, woody aroma, often associated with hops, spices, and ginseng. In this blog we will discuss the effects and benefits of humulene, and explore which of  Kurvana’s premium vape offerings contain this exceptional terpene. 

Strains High in Humulene: A Bouquet of Aromatics and Effects

Humulene, often compared to hops, embodies a rich, earthy aroma that carries a hint of spiciness, providing a sophisticated, grounded sensorial experience. It threads its way through various cannabis strains, notably Kurvana’s  Cosmic Glue, Lemon Royale Sauce, and Headband, each presenting a varied but unmistakably rich humulene profile. Through its subtle yet complex aroma, humulene enriches the sensory enjoyment of cannabis. Moreover, its potential wellness attributes make it an intriguing terpene for both new and seasoned cannabis enthusiasts alike. 

Humulene Terpene Benefits

While humulene delights the senses with its unique scent, it’s within the sphere of wellness that this terpene truly piques interest. Notably, it veers away from the typical “munchies” associated with cannabis, being one of the rare terpenes that may actually act as an appetite suppressant. This is welcome news to anyone who loves cannabis, but would prefer to avoid the urge to order an extra large cheese pizza at midnight (no judgment!) As far as the known appetite suppressant terpenes, humulene stands alone. What’s also interesting about this terpene is that preliminary research (and anecdotal accounts) suggest it might hold anti-inflammatory and pain-relief properties. 

Kurvana’s Humulene-Rich Vape Selections

Translating the complex, grounded notes of humulene into a premium vaping experience requires a marriage of careful strain selection and exemplary extraction processes. Kurvana has honed this craft, capturing the nuanced profile of humulene into our cannabis oils via whole plant extraction. With every full-spectrum oil, sauce, and concentrate, we maintain the integrity of humulene and other terpenes in the final product. 

Our terpene-rich vaporizers offer not only robust flavor profiles but also all the potential wellness benefits in a more concentrated form. If you’re looking for a humulene strain, in addition to those mentioned earlier, we suggest our Mint Chip vape, which is highest in the humulene terpene. High Fashion, Jet Fuel, Pink Sherbet, Georgia Sky, and Lemon Haze are other strains high in humulene. 

Why Vaporizing Humulene is the Best Method of Consumption 

Vaping is the favored method to truly appreciate terpenes like humulene in cannabis, as this method allows for a pure, unadulterated experience of its aroma and effects. While smoking cannabis will allow you to experience some of the benefits of terpenes, they break down more rapidly with this method. That’s simply due to the nature of combustion, and also because the raw flower tends to lose freshness in a matter of weeks. 

Cannabis oils and concentrates, on the other hand, allow all of the plant’s components to be preserved. Additionally, vaping usually involves a much lower temperature than smoking, and this also preserves the beneficial terpenes. You’ll notice this smoking vs vaping difference the most when it comes to flavor.
