Terpinolene is not the most common terpene found in cannabis, but it exists in trace amounts in a wide array of strains. Though never the primary terpene in a strain, terpinolene plays a role in the entourage effect, the synergistic phenomenon that happens when terpenes and cannabinoids work together to produce effects they could not create alone.

Terpinolene has a multidimensional flavour often characterized as fresh, with notes of pine, flowers, herbs, and fruit. In cannabis, it may contribute to a strain’s relaxing qualities, although terpinolene is also associated with strains reported to be energizing.
