The Terpene Collection
This aromatherapeutic collection was created to share cannabis education, specifically about terpenes and their medicinal benefits. As two medical marijuana patients themselves, our founders have been working hard behind the scenes to create a collection that combines art and creativity with science and education. Each candle in this collection is hand-poured using our velvety soft hemp soy wax and the highest quality pure, food-grade terpene oils.
