Distillate 1 gram - Purple Urkle (I)
Cannabis distillate is super concentrated cannabis oil. While other concentrates are extracted using solvents or heat, distillate undergoes a short-path distillation process that strips it of any terpenes, waxes, flavonoids, extra cannabinoids, impurities, or other plant matter. What is left behind is a unique cannabis oil that can reach astounding purity levels. Unlike with other concentrates like wax or shatter, you can always rest assured that your distillate is clean and free of residual solvents. In its purest form (right after extraction), distillate oil is flavorless and odorless. But this doesn’t exactly make for a great vaping experience. So, most distillates are infused with extra terpenes for flavor. Oftentimes distillate is infused with strain-specific terpenes in order to give it the flavor or a specific strain.
About this strain: Purple Urkle
Not much is known about Purple Urkle’s origin story, except that it first appeared in the 1980s. Some online sources claim that the cultivar’s heritage can be traced back to Mendocino Purps, a well-known cannabis strain produced in Northern California’s Emerald Triangle. Others speculate that Purple Urkle could be a phenotype of either Mendocino Purps or Granddaddy Purple. Regardless of its origin, Purple Urkle’s resplendent purple coloring, due to a healthy amount of anthocyanins, undoubtedly contributed to its name.
Lab tests indicate larger percentages of the terpene myrcene contribute to Purple Urkle’s earthy, musky aromas, while the presence of alpha-pinene counteract the terpene’s more sedative effects. Users compliment Purple Urkle for its berry flavors and its impressive THC content, which clocks in between 17-22%, depending on grow conditions.
