Any thoughts on Jeeter and Baby Jeeter flavored prerolls?

I think you’re misinterpreting what he is saying but yes there actually are esters derived from terpenes. All you basically need is an acid and a hydroxyl group. Fenchol, also known as fenchyl alcohol, is a monoterpene alcohol in all cannabis and is one of the most common in the plant. Fenchyl acetate is the acetate ester of fenchol and is fairly common, albeit in much lower concentrations than fenchyl alcohol. Same goes for Bornyl acetate, isobornyl isovalerate, cedryl acetate… I could go on all day.

Your next post presses about what types of esters make some cannabis smell like strawberries. A lot of fruity strains will contain significant amounts of hexyl acetate and cis-3-hexenyl acetate, to name a couple easy ones. These range from apple to pear aromas on their own but alongside some ethyl esters for sweetness and (Z)-3-Hexenol (aliphatic alcohol, not an ester) and you have a cannabis-derived strawberry flavor that is not far off from what goes into artificial strawberry flavorings used in candies and beverages, as well as what occurs in actual strawberries. I could cite thousands of these non-terpene volatiles I’ve seen extracted in cannabis terpene fraction samples but that type of information does not come free.
