Terpinolene is a complex, multifaceted terpene with a fresh, piney-floral aroma that is found in relatively few cannabis strains but in high concentrations when present. It has documented antioxidant, antibacterial and mild sedating properties. In the UK, terpinolene-dominant strains are typically sativa-leaning and are prescribed for daytime anxiety relief and mood support.

Frequently Asked Questions about Terpinolene

What makes terpinolene unusual compared to other cannabis terpenes?
Terpinolene is the dominant terpene in relatively few cannabis strains (unlike ubiquitous myrcene), but where it is dominant, it is present in high concentrations. Its complex aroma — fresh, piney, floral and slightly sweet — is distinct from other terpenes.
Which UK cannabis strains contain the most terpinolene?
Jack Herer variants and some Ghost Train Haze products tend to be high in terpinolene. Use the LeafMe terpene filter to find terpinolene-dominant strains available on UK prescription.
Is terpinolene sedating or uplifting?
Terpinolene has a contradictory profile — it is often found in uplifting sativa strains but has shown mild sedating properties in isolation. The overall effect depends heavily on the other terpenes and cannabinoids present in the strain.
