Outdoor resin from Ounas Edin, on the south-facing slopes of the Moroccan Rif. 20.5% CBD and 2.0% terpenes —but what makes this batch special isn’t those two numbers.
It lies in the distribution: four terpenes share the top spots, separated by a minimal margin. None stands out, and that’s what gives this resin its smoothness and complexity. Dry sift using a tam tam, 153 microns. Numbered batch; ISO 17025 analysis available for review before purchase.
Most resins have a dominant molecule. It takes the lead in the profile, sets the tone, and everything else complements it. That’s what makes a resin instantly recognizable.
This batch works differently. Its four main terpenes are separated by a margin of just 0.14 points—a mere hair’s breadth on this scale. Woody, sweet, peppery, and fresh notes arrive almost simultaneously, and none takes the lead.
The result is twofold. Nothing jumps out immediately, which can be disconcerting at first. But the overall profile holds up over time and evolves as you continue tasting, whereas a profile dominated by a single note tends to fade more quickly.
Hand-pressed, with no cutting agents or additives.
The graph below is unusual: the first four bars are almost the same length. In most batches, the first bar dwarfs the others. Here, they’re all on par.
Leading the way is a woody terpene that sets the foundation. Right behind it, almost on par, is the chamomile terpene—it’s what brings the round, slightly creamy sweetness, and it’s much more prominent here than in our other batches. Then comes pepper, followed by a piney freshness. None of the four manages to dominate the other three.
Further down the list, a subtle floral note rounds out the profile. It isn’t noticeable on its own, but it partly explains why this resin seems sweeter than it actually is.
Cannatonic is one of the first strains stabilized for cannabidiol. It wasn’t selected for its aroma but for its reliability: it consistently produces high CBD levels, generation after generation. It’s a foundation, not a signature strain.
Blue Berry offers the opposite. It’s a historic strain, known for its sweetness and roundness, but less consistent from one crop to the next.
Crossing the two amounts to accepting a compromise: what you gain in stability, you lose in character. The result resembles neither parent on its own—neither the neutrality of one nor the exuberance of the other—but rather an intermediate profile where several characteristics coexist without any one dominating the others.
The plots are located on south-facing slopes, above the riverbed that flows down from Tizirane. These two conditions, taken together, are essential.
Facing due south, the plant receives light from sunrise to sunset, without the respite offered by the shade of a hillside. Yet, being above the river, it has no access to the water: the slope drains, the water rushes downward, and the roots must reach down to find it.
A plant that works hard produces more resin. This isn’t a matter of comfort but a response to stress, and the crop confirms this with 2.0% terpenes —a level that few open-field crops achieve.
The river below plays one final role. It cools the valley floor at night and draws moisture upward in the early morning: the difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures is more pronounced here than elsewhere.
What the terroir does not explain, however, is the unusually flat distribution of the terpene profile. That is due to crossbreeding, not the location.
| CBD | 20.5% |
|---|---|
| CBC / CBG / Δ8 | 1.2% / 0.70% / 0.27% |
| CBN | not detected |
| Total terpenes | 2.0% |
| THC | 0.92% — within the Swiss threshold (< 1%) |
That’s what makes this profile unique. The top terpene peaks at 0.38%, while the fourth is at 0.24%—a difference of just 0.14 percentage points, whereas other batches show a ratio ranging from one to three between the first and second highest terpenes.
Such a flat distribution is uncommon. It indicates a plant that has expressed multiple synthesis pathways in parallel rather than favoring just one, and this translates directly into the glass: no single dominant aroma, but a shifting blend.

Nothing stands out at first, which can be confusing if you’re looking for a distinct aroma. The aroma that emerges is sweet, slightly creamy, with a hint of florals in the background. No distinct fruity notes despite the name—the sweetness comes from the roundness, not from a berry aroma.
Pine comes through first, briefly. Pepper follows and lingers, continuously softened by the chamomile note, which is particularly prominent here. The woody base provides a steady foundation from start to finish without ever taking over. The smoke is smooth, with little throat burn.
Supple without being sticky. The cigar is easy to shape with your thumb and holds its shape well. Medium in color, between light brown and golden, with a surface that catches the light slightly.
Most product listings on the market display only one number. It’s the one that’s easiest to compare, and it’s also the one that tells you the least.
In this batch, the analysis reveals 1.2% CBC and 0.70% CBG alongside the CBD. These two molecules are not residues: they are part of what the plant naturally produces, and they are lost in highly refined extracts.
Their presence is precisely what distinguishes a resin obtained through mechanical sifting from a product reconstituted from an isolate. It’s also the reason why we publish the full report rather than just the CBD percentage.
Because its four main terpenes are almost equal in concentration: 0.38%, 0.36%, 0.30%, and 0.24%. In most resins, the first terpene is two to three times more abundant than the next and sets the tone. Here, none of them dominates, and the blend comes across as a whole rather than as a single identifiable note.
Alpha-bisabolol, present at 0.36%—the molecule that gives chamomile its rounded, slightly creamy scent. That’s nearly double what we measure in our other batches. This sweetness is therefore not a fruity aroma but an aromatic quality, which explains why it’s perceived as sweet without any identifiable fruit.
Consistency. Cannatonic is one of the first strains stabilized for cannabidiol: it reliably passes on a high CBD content from one generation to the next. It doesn’t have a distinct aroma—that’s left to the second parent and the growing conditions.
Because they are part of what the plant produces, and because their presence is an indicator of the extraction method. Mechanical sieving preserves them; a product reconstituted from CBD isolate does not contain them. This batch contains 1.2% and 0.70%—these figures can be verified in the report.
It’s about the profile, not the levels. No. 0018 is dominated by a single woody terpene that overshadows the others: it goes in one direction and stays there. No. 0019 has no dominant terpene at all. The former is more straightforward, the latter more complex—it’s a matter of preference, not quality.
