Hempsi has perfected the harvest, storing & processing of delicate trichomes, preserving the widest spectrum of undisturbed cannabinoids & full range of terpene aromas & effects, for the maximum consumer benefit via the ‘entourage effect.' We call this extract Hempsi Whole Flower LIVE OIL™.It starts with carefully curated high-CBD, terpene-rich USDA-certified organic hemp exclusive to Hempsi, raised with care on a fourth-generation family farm in Oregon. The flowers are gingerly hand-picked about 15% earlier than traditional methods, as this is the apex of terpene production, giving our oil a broader profile with maximum flavor, rich smells & a range of benefits.The pivotal step is the immediate freezing of the flowers; within 4 hours of harvest our buds are flash frozen at negative 200° Fahrenheit. Much like the fruit industry, this method immediately stops further maturity & preserves the fragile compounds, including the full range of beneficial cannabinoids, which degrade quickly when exposed to heat; and sought-after terpenes, which will evaporate. We keep the compounds together as nature intended & deliver the much-researched ‘entourage effect' by maximizing interactivity.The plants remain frozen until the Hempsi lab is ready to process. We use the latest hydrocarbon extraction technology, a closed-loop system with a proprietary technique which leaves zero residuals. During extraction, the chambers reach an industry-leading negative 110° Fahrenheit, gently releasing the trichomes from the flower. This method additionally eliminates the need for further filtration or winterization.Extraction from frozen hemp has been proven to provide the highest consistency in final concentrated product output, given the elimination of variables from field to lab. Finally, as our plant remains frozen until extraction, Hempsi can provide our LIVE OIL™ at any time of year, removing restrictions of farming cycles & keeping product fresh & consistent long after harvest.
