I’ve never encountered this particular terp until today, is it just me or does it taste like the CBD phenol taste?

Interesting never seen that in the plant but…

Geranyl pyrophosphate is used in the biosynthesis of GBG and this the other cannabinoids we love including CBD:

(OLA = Olivetolic acid)

I’ve never encountered it either, here’s the insert if anyone’s curious. Smell is like any other Jack Herer I’ve tried, the taste is like CBD isolate almost though

I didn’t think geranyl acetate even exist in cannabis. You sure they’re not posting the added plant derived terpenes?

I hAve test results of plants with geranyl acetate in them.

I stand corrected then. Labs in my state don’t even test for geranyl acetate so I’ve just never seen it

You’re not allowed to add non-cannabis terpenes and still call it a marijuana extract in Oregon, which this product is labeled as

Not sure about geranyl acetate specifically. Geranium plants smell fire but not how you describe. The CBD isolate taste in my experience is more similar to a cherry crossed with anise, fennel, or black liquorice

Geraniol smells much different than Geranyl Acetate. I do agree with OP geranyl Ace has a bit of that weird cherry smell to it. Different type of floral. I’m not a fan of this isolate but I also didn’t care for it partly because i didn’t think it was native to cannabis (which was incorrect)
