Rare Linalool Highs and What You’ve Been Missing
Hey cannabis aficionados, have you explored the terpene linalool yet? Very few examples of cannabis with high amounts of linalool still exist compared to the usual cannabis available in which other more common terpenes dominate the selections. There are so few linalool dominant choices available, they can be counted on your fingers. Some would say on one hand. Not only that, they are getting more rare each year.
Linalool is known as the flower terpene, an aromatic compound that can be present in cannabis. It not only contributes to the aroma and flavor, but also the physiological effects. In cannabis Linalool modulates the strength and effectiveness of cannibinoids. This is commonly known as the entourage effect. Linalool is not only found in cannabis. You know the aroma from Lavender, Roses, Lily of the Valley, and is found in many other plants. Its the kind of smell that is inviting and relaxing. The taste is lightly floral with a touch of sweetness and spice.
What makes it appealing to cannabis connoisseurs goes beyond taste and aroma. For me it’s a medicine I can rely on. Research suggests extensive therapeutic benefits of linalool that include skin health, antimicrobial properties, anti-inflamitory, anti-epileptic, immune system support, and mental wellness. For depression and anxiety research suggests that linalool interacts with the bodys nervous system by influencing neurotransmitters linked to regulating of mood. It brings calming relaxation and reduces stress. This would be a beneficial addition to any wellness routine. It has been linked to relaxation of the nervous system by activating the rest and digest response of the body, unwinding the mind and allowing the body to relax. This reduction in anxiety and calming effects can help with sleeping disorders making falling asleep easier, and can be the way to get a restful night’s sleep.
Everyone has a different body chemistry and the way the chemistry of the cannabis works will vary somewhat, but this type of weed is a must for my jars. I go to it so much. It helps against my problems involving anxiety, stress, and it takes pain away. Some cannabis makes me paranoid and anxious which I don’t like so much, so I count on weed like this for a sure known positive experience.
Many of the more experienced cannabis connoisseurs will remeber this taste and effect from decades ago, and how that special something is missing. It’s one of those unique terpene profiles that is steadily going extinct.
If you are unsure of a reliable source don’t worry. Whether its to fill in a hole in your collection, for medicine, or to add to your unique cannabis experiences, I have in my collection seeds of 2 types of cannabis that are high and dominant with linalool. Be assured they are the real thing. One of them is the strain Mazar. This is a true breeding, stable medical strain used for centuries. The other is a Balochistan landrace heirloom, also used for centuries. These are real medicine. Both of these have different effects, and if you have a specific question or condition you are treating yourself by using cannabis, feel free to reach out to me to discuss which one may be most suitable for your particular needs so you can get the right seeds for yourself to grow. Reach out in a PM for details.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on linalool, or any standout chemovars that have helped you. Discover what you’ve been missing!

This is what 2026 should be about—not yield and THC percentage. There are hundreds of compounds in this plant. Stop focusing on one specific one! @wanderer

This one happens to be medicine that helps me because of its unique terpene profile in this cultivar.
The other common terpene profiles that the majority of cannabis have do not help with my needs. I do have those too, but they are for other reasons and uses. I can write about those another time.
I didnt write about yield and THC values, but I can say the strain I have has a large yield and is legendary for its potency and narcotic effect, so it’s not a worry. I can have linalool medicine and not sacrifice yield or potency thanks the the centuries of work from farmers that knew their craft. I am thankful that this piece of human heritage still thrives today.
