Plant resins are simply
extractions of plant material, taken from the entire plant, or
specific parts of the plant, depending on the purpose and desired
effect. Since ancient times, plant resins have served countless
purposes. First and foremost, resins were used as a way to
enhance environments by burning them, which releases their
concentrated scents into a cave, castle, or home.
Resins also served a second purpose; they are concentrated ways of
utilizing the active properties of plants for medicinal,
recreational, and spiritual purposes. Active components of a
plant can be concentrated into the resinous extracts, greatly
reducing the volume, and greatly reducing the amounts needed for
effective use.
In the case of
Blue Lotus, White Lotus and Wild Dagga plants, the most active part
of the plant is in the flowers, so our resins are extracted from
only the flower of the plant. In plants where the entire plant is
active, such as Wormwood, the entire plant is made into an extract.
For our plant resins, we use only grain alcohol or water, depending
on what each plant will best extract into. Some plants extract well
into alcohol, and some into water. For example, plants such as Kava
Kava extract well into water, where a plant such as Blue Lotus
(Nymphaea caerulea) extracts best into alcohol.
Our extractions take place in sterile environments with only the
finest grain alcohol or distilled water, and herbs are macerated for
a minimum of 1 week, to ensure a full extraction of the plant
material.
We also focus on extracts and
resins that are most often sought after by the ethnobotanical and
the entheogen community, such as
Wild Dagga resins,
Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) resins,
Blue Lotus and
White Lotus resins, Calea
zacatechechi or Dream Herb resins, Wormwood and
Wild Lettuce resins,
as well as some custom blends such as Wild Dagga and Kanna blends
and Amanita muscaria acetate.
