Terpenes are a type of aromatic compound that is found in a wide variety of plants, including cannabis. They are responsible for the distinct smells and flavors of different cannabis strains. Terpenes are produced in the trichomes of the cannabis plant, which are the small, mushroom-like glands that produce the plant's cannabinoids and other compounds.​

In addition to their role in providing the characteristic aroma of cannabis strains, terpenes are also believed to have a number of potential therapeutic effects. Some common terpenes found in cannabis include myrcene, limonene, and pinene. Each terpene has its own unique set of properties and potential benefits.
For example, myrcene is a sedative terpene that is believed to have muscle-relaxing and sleep-inducing effects. Limonene is a citrus-scented terpene that is believed to have mood-elevating and anxiety-reducing effects. Pinene is a woody-scented terpene that is believed to have anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator effects.
It is important to note that the therapeutic effects of terpenes are not well understood and more research is needed to fully understand their potential.
