Some diamonds are sold in a spicy extract with a high terpene content, which is normally referred to as “diamonds” or “diamond sauce”, while others are sold only as diamonds without sauce, called “THCa diamonds”. Sometimes they're even labeled as pure THC, but they're still inactive THCa that needs to be heated for you to get high. Diamond sauce is basically a blend that contains pure THC, with a special blend of flavonoids. Because of this somewhat unstable mix, it has a powerful and spicy flavor.
It is also considered a product with high potency due to its THC concentration. Like any cannabis concentrate, CBD and THCA diamonds can be smoked or vaped to alleviate various conditions and symptoms, such as chronic pain, anxiety, nausea, inflammation, and more. THC diamonds are premium quality cannabis concentrates that are obtained when live resin is extracted from cannabis using a cold extraction method and pressed until THC crystals, or diamonds, form. CBD and THCA diamonds are created through multiple different processes, the most typical of which is oversaturation.
Like other concentrates, these crystalline structures begin as biomass that undergoes a chemical extraction process. They are different types of concentrates, with the difference that Diamonds Sauce is a little more powerful than Delta 8 Shatter, but both will give you a powerful high. Regardless of how they're sold, diamonds will always be somewhat pure THCA products, whether they come with terpene sauce or are sold alone as isolated THCA. For those who don't know what “diamonds and sauce” refer to, diamonds are simply crystallized THCa, while “sauce” are all the terpenes and flavonoids that are preserved during extraction and purging processes.
It should be noted that Diamond Sauce is much more potent than Delta 8 Shatter; it also has a much stronger flavor and smell profile due to the concentration of THC and other cannabinoids and flavonoids due to the volatile nature of the extract. Since marijuana diamonds contain almost 100% cannabinoids, there are usually no terpenes in the product, which produces an odourless and tasteless concentrate. You can also prepare diamonds and regular sauces with dried and cured flowers, but freshly frozen cannabis is ideal, as it still has the light, volatile terpenes that are normally lost during drying and curing processes. Processors can store their cannabinoid diamonds in a container in a cool, dry and dark place and allow the diamond formation process to begin.
Most users consume diamonds on a spray platform by heating the nail with a butane torch and applying a “pinch of diamonds” inside the heated nail to vaporize it. CBD and THCA diamonds are available at several retail outlets, including licensed medical and recreational dispensaries and online retailers. If you're more interested in poking diamonds and sauce than vaping, it's easy to turn your pipe into a hookah.
