What Is Caryophyllene?

Caryophyllene is a unique, spicy terpene known for its warm pepper-like aroma and grounding, soothing effects. Found in black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, and many cannabis strains, Caryophyllene stands out because it can interact with the body's endocannabinoid system—similar to how cannabinoids do.

Caryophyllene terpene gives a deep, calming, and balancing quality, often chosen for easing physical tension, centering the mind, and bringing a comfortable sense of stability.
