Why does each Shimmerwood seltzer taste so unique? The answer lies in terpenes—the natural aromatic compounds found in plants, fruits, and herbs. In CBD beverages, terpenes bring bright citrus, warming spice, or crisp herbal notes that make every sip flavorful and functional.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are the essential oils of plants. They provide distinct aromas (like citrus peel or pine needles) and may influence how your body experiences hemp. In Shimmerwood, terpenes highlight flavor first—each can has a different personality based on its terpene mix.
Terpene Profiles by Flavor
| Flavor | Key Terpenes | Taste & Aroma | Functional Vibe* |
|---|---|---|---|
| Razz Lime | Limonene, Myrcene | Citrusy, berry-bright, slightly herbal | Refreshing reset, midday pick-me-up |
| Ginger Orange | Limonene, Beta-Caryophyllene | Zesty citrus with warming ginger spice | Food-friendly, cozy evening unwind |
| Just Hemp | Pinene, Myrcene | Crisp, earthy, botanical | Grounding, versatile anytime sip |
*Terpenes don’t change the CBD itself, but they add sensory layers that people may associate with mood or setting.
