Terpenes & Cannabinoids
With THC levels ranging from 18-24% and CBD below 1%, Banshee offers a potent experience. Key terpenes identified include myrcene, pinene, and limonene, with smaller amounts of caryophyllene and linalool, which may contribute to its therapeutic properties and balanced effects.
