Weed vapes offer a convenient, discreet, and flavorful way to consume– especially if you’re a beginner looking to explore the benefits of cannabis without needing to smoke. At Illicit, we’re proud to offer a range of premium marijuana vapes, including live resin carts, live rosin disposables, and distillate options. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about vaping weed!
What is a Cannabis Vape?
A cannabis vape is a device that heats cannabis concentrates or flower at a lower temperature, converting the active compounds (THC and CBD) into vapor for inhalation. Vaping cannabis is often considered less harsh on the lungs than smoking, and it also offers a more controlled experience.
Weed vapes come in a few forms, including disposable, all-in-one vapes and cartridges (carts) that are attached to a separate vape pen or battery. At Illicit, we offer a variety of weed vape options, from distillate carts, to live resin carts, to live rosin disposable pens.
What is a Distillate Cart?
A distillate cart is a vape cartridge filled with THC distillate, which is a highly refined cannabis extract. Distillate is known for its high potency and purity. Plant materials and other cannabinoids have been removed, leaving pure THC. This results in a product that delivers strong effects without much of the flavor or aroma of the original plant.
Distillate carts are popular among cannabis users who want potent effects in a discreet and convenient form. Illicit’s Classy Carts offer high-quality THC distillate with minimal additives, providing you with a smooth, clean, and affordable vaping experience.
Difference Between Live Resin and Distillate Carts
While both live resin and distillate carts are potent, there are significant differences between them. Distillate is pure THC– stripped of terpenes and other cannabinoids. Live resin, on the other hand, retains the full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant.
Distillate carts provide high potency and mild flavors, focusing on pure THC.
Live resin carts are all about capturing the plant’s true essence, offering strain-specific flavors, aromas, and effects– along with a full spectrum of cannabinoids.
If you're new to cannabis and want to experience the full flavor profile of the plant, live resin carts are the way to go. If you're looking for pure THC potency, distillate carts are the best option.
What is a Live Resin Cart?
A live resin cart contains full-spectrum cannabis extract that is made from fresh, frozen cannabis plants. With live resin extraction, the plant’s terpenes and cannabinoids are preserved. This ensures that the original flavor and effects of each strain are retained, giving you a richer and more authentic cannabis experience.
Live resin carts from Illicit are ideal for those who appreciate flavorful, aromatic vapor and a full-spectrum experience. Terpenes enhance both flavor and the entourage effect– which occurs when multiple cannabinoids and terpenes work together for greater therapeutic benefits.
So when you vape a live resin cart, you're getting a more holistic interaction with the cannabis plant.
What’s the Difference Between Live Resin and Live Rosin Carts?
Both live resin and live rosin carts are known for their full-spectrum flavors and effects and high-quality extraction processes, but they’re produced in different ways.
Live resin is extracted using solvents like butane or propane (later removed).
Live rosin is a solventless extraction method that uses only heat and pressure to extract.
Because live rosin doesn’t use solvents, it’s often considered a cleaner, more natural form of cannabis concentrate. However, both live resin and live rosin offer rich terpene profiles and full-spectrum effects, making them popular choices among cannabis enthusiasts.
What is a Live Rosin Cart?
A live rosin cart is a vape cartridge filled with solventless cannabis extract made from fresh, frozen cannabis plants. Live rosin is known for its purity and the fact that no chemicals or solvents are used in the extraction process. This makes live rosin carts a premium choice for cannabis connoisseurs who prioritize clean, high-quality products.
Live rosin carts deliver a flavorful and potent vaping experience with the full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes intact, giving you the closest experience to the original cannabis flower.
What is a Disposable Weed Vape?
A disposable weed vape is a pre-filled, ready-to-use vape pen that contains a set amount of cannabis oil or concentrate. Unlike reusable vapes, which require you to replace the cartridge, disposables come as a single unit, and once the oil is used up, the entire vape pen can be discarded.
Disposable weed vapes are popular for their convenience, portability, and ease of use—no need to charge or maintain a battery. Illicit’s live rosin disposable vapes are a perfect choice if you’re a beginner looking to try a high-quality, solventless cannabis extract in a user-friendly format.
Benefits of Using Weed Vapes for Beginners
Vaping is an excellent method for weed beginners because it offers several advantages:
Discreet: Vaping produces less odor than smoking, making it a more discreet option for cannabis consumption.
Controlled Dosing: With vapes, it’s easy to control how much THC you’re consuming with each puff. You can start small and gradually work your way up, making it ideal if you’re a beginner.
Faster Onset: Vaping allows you to feel the effects almost immediately, making it easier to manage your intake compared to edibles, which take longer to kick in.
Illicit’s wide variety of vape products has something for everyone, whether you're looking for live resin carts, live rosin disposable pens, or distillate carts. And all of our cannabis vapes are made using our top-tier, award-winning cannabis strains.
