2023 Sweet #16

Terpene Belt Farms’ 2023 Sweet #16 represents a premium sweet terpene oil extracted from hemp cultivated during California’s exceptional 2023 harvest season. This single varietal terpene product captures the authentic expression of carefully selected genetics, preserved through the Fresh Never Frozen extraction process that maintains the complete aromatic complexity found in the original plant material.

Product developers and formulators select 2023 Sweet #16 when their applications require genuine sweet and tart profiles that stand apart from generic fruit blends. The distinctive combination of red berry zest, tart cherry, mild green mandarin, and strawberry notes creates a sophisticated sensory experience that translates effectively across various product formats. This specific profile fills the gap between overly simple sweet formulations and complex dessert profiles, providing a balanced middle ground for brands seeking differentiation without overwhelming their base products.

The terpene composition of 2023 Sweet #16 features Myrcene at 23.84%, delivering earthy and musky undertones with subtle fruit notes. α-Pinene comprises 20.05%, contributing sharp pine characteristics, while Limonene at 12.12% provides citrus peel brightness. β-Pinene at 6.65% adds woody depth, and β-Caryophyllene at 5.08% introduces pepper and spice complexity. This specific ratio creates the signature sweet-tart balance that defines this harvest’s expression.
