When life gives you lemons, enjoy the abundance of Limonene. Commonly found in the peels of citrus fruits and botanicals such as juniper, rosemary and mint, Limonene is one of the most prevalent terpenes in all cannabis strains. Not just on the shelves of the best dispensaries in Santa Rosa or in your fruit bowl, Limonene is often used in soaps, perfumes, cosmetics and cleaning products.
Think of the bright sweet scent of an orange, or the uplifting pucker you get after tasting a lime. The zesty terpene Limonene is known for its ability to perk you up, lift your mood and help with focus. Our Sonoma County Dispensary isn’t making any medical claims, but research has found that Limonene may help fight depression, ease anxiety, relieve heartburn, have antibacterial properties and even anti-cancer benefits.
As for which strains contain Limonene, it’s frequently found in sativas. When in doubt, flowers that have “sour” or “lemon” in its name are always a good guess!

Terpene Tip:
Make lemonade with life’s lemons, roll up a Limonene heavy joint and get lit with the power of terpenes. Following the Entourage effect theory, Limonene may improve the absorption of other terpenes, such as linalool and caryophyllene, reducing any anxiety that may be imparted by THC and enhancing the feeling of well-being.
