02 / Definition
What is Kief?
Kief is the fine, powdery collection of trichomes that separate from cannabis flower, often gathering in the bottom chamber of a grinder. Because trichomes hold much of the plant’s cannabinoids and terpenes, kief is more potent than the flower it comes from. It can be sprinkled onto flower, added to pre-rolls or pressed into hash.
