Why α-Humulene completes a blend
α-Humulene, also called α-caryophyllene, contributes the earthy, woody character long associated with hops and clove. It brings depth and a subtle spice that rounds out herbal and hoppy formulations, and is a common companion to caryophyllene.
Our botanical α-Humulene is molecularly distilled for purity, then verified by in-house GC/MS. Every lot ships with a Certificate of Analysis so you can audit identity and purity before production scale.
