ABSTRAX, an industry leader in the study and production of cannabis and botanically-derived terpenes, is now officially the first terpene distributor to offer its catalog on Weedmaps’ WM Exchange. Part of WM Business product suite, WM Exchange is a platform that streamlines discovery between licensed buyers and sellers. Now, retailers and brands on Weedmaps will have access to ABSTRAX’s wide variety of terpenes.

“We are thrilled to join the Weedmaps family,” said Max Koby, Founding Partner and Chief Executive Officer. “Brands can now access and experiment with terpenes in new and exciting ways — radically changing the way their products perform and deliver an experience.”

Due to federal regulations, ABSTRAX’s cannabis-derived terpenes are currently only available in the State of California, while its botanically-derived terpenes, extracted from lemon, orange, mango, and other fruits and plants, are available nationwide.

“We are delighted to have ABSTRAX onboard, our relationship with them is a step forward in further establishing WM Business as the optimal solution for cannabis retailers and brands to efficiently run and scale their business,” said Justin Dean, Chief Technology Officer of Weedmaps. “We believe WM Exchange will become an essential part of the overall WM Business SaaS portfolio as our retail and brand clients alike look to make wholesale discovery and distribution a more seamless process.”

“The botanical side of ABSTRAX’s business leads the way in introducing terpenes to brands throughout the country. Our mission is to educate companies on the numerous benefits of terpenes and how best to use them in their products,” said Koby.

Available on WM Exchange is an innovative menu of ABSTRAX terpene blends like XJ-13, Wedding Cake, Tropic Thunder, Super Lemon Haze, Strawberry Cheesecake, and more. Each blend offers a highly unique sensorial experience that can be consistently reproduced, thanks to the company’s state-of-the-art Type 7 laboratory and formulation team. For example, Wedding Cake (also known as Pink Cookies) is a rare phenotype created by Seed Junky Genetics when the breeder crossed a mother Triangle Kush with Animal Mints pollen. When consumed, the blend is calming, mood-boosting, and euphoric. Brands often use the blend for vapes, beverages, and finished goods.

“Our blends are growing in popularity because they are both highly innovative and extremely consistent,” said Koby. “We are able to recreate the most popular cannabis strains using either or both cannabis-derived and botanically-derived terpenes, providing brands with the ability to create and recreate unforgettable sensorial experiences for their customers.”
