Buy Distillate Online in Canada: What It Is and How to Choose

Distillate is one of the most refined cannabis products you can buy. It is a clear to golden oil made by extracting cannabinoids from the plant and then distilling them, which strips out most of the plant matter, fats and flavour along the way.

People buy it online for the same reasons they buy other concentrates online: more choice than one store shelf, prices they can compare, and delivery instead of a trip. In Toronto, Mississauga and the rest of the GTA, same-day delivery brings the order to your door, and mail order covers the rest of Canada.

The main draw is potency. Distillate commonly tests at 90 percent THC or more, and some products claim up to 99 percent, so a small amount goes a long way. It also means it is easy to take too much, so start with a small amount and wait before having more.

Distillate is also versatile. It can be vaped in a cartridge, added to a joint or bowl, taken under the tongue or used in edibles, because it is usually already decarboxylated (activated). Producers often add terpenes back in to give it a particular flavour.

THC distillate is a highly concentrated cannabis product made through an advanced extraction and distillation process. This method separates THC from the cannabis plant, resulting in a liquid with high THC content. Available in various indica, sativa, and hybrid strains, THC distillates cater to different preferences and can be used for smoking, vaping, dabbing, sublingual absorption, and adding to edibles and beverages.

The distillation process involves extracting the oil with a solvent, then using heat and vacuum to remove the solvent and impurities. The result is an extremely pure form of cannabis, with distillates often reaching cannabinoid concentrations of 90% or more. This makes THC distillate a potent and versatile product in the cannabis market.

In the world of cannabis concentrates, it's important to understand the differences between distillates, resin, and rosin, especially if you are deciding what to buy. Distillates stand out with their high potency and purity, often exceeding 90% cannabinoid content, providing a clean and powerful experience. In contrast, resin retains a wider range of compounds, offering a complex flavor but lower purity. Rosin, similar to resin, provides a fuller spectrum experience compared to distillates.

When it comes to consistency and appearance, distillates are clear and uniform, reflecting their purity. Resin varies in color and consistency, usually being stickier and more viscous. Rosin's appearance can range from sap-like to solid. In terms of flavor and terpenes, distillates may lack a robust flavor due to terpene removal, while resin and rosin both offer richer and more diverse flavor profiles, thanks to their higher terpene content. Before you buy, make sure the potency suits your experience.

Distillate is made in a few steps, all of them done by producers with lab equipment:

Extracting Cannabinoids: Solvents like ethanol or CO2 are used to extract cannabinoids from the cannabis plant.

Purification: The extracted mixture is then cleaned to remove any impurities and waxes.

Distillation: The purified extract is subjected to heat and cooling to isolate cannabinoids, resulting in a highly potent distillate.

Optional Aroma Boost: Some distillates have added terpenes for extra flavor and the entourage effect, enhancing the overall experience.
