Ok so I can here by confirm that our assumption that if there is hasheshene in your
Cannabis derived terpenes your good and have a real cannabis derived product is now not so sure
Thanx to @dutchmulti for hooking me up

The synthetic hashishene floating around EU right now made from myrcene is more like 60% purity and loaded with a ton of nasty stuff. Send it to a lab and thank me later.

Send me a lil sample and I do the chromatogram.

What is hasheshene?

Allegedly a terpene typical of Moroccan hashish.

Will do send me a dm with specs
Hashishene is in just about every cannabis/hemp terpene. It’s not uncommon at all. It just gets a lot of praise because it doesn’t exist in other plants. The synthetic version that’s being sold right now is not safe for consumption and the lab producing it knows this.

That might all be treu
Yet the assumption we used to have that if there is hasheshene inside it must be real cannabis derived holds no ground even at 60% for any readout will see it

No, it’s being converted from isolated Myrcene. The sample you’re holding is not cannabis derived. I am certain of this.

All of the Moroccan I have had smelled like degraded terpenes. Is it produced by oxidation or UV?
EDIT: @Roguelab beat me to it!

I misunderstood your comment. I thought you were suggesting your hashishene was cannabis derived. Now I see what you meant.
There are so many other markers to indicate if a terpene is truly cannabis derived. Pretty much every terpene isolate has major red flags that would not exist in true cannabis/hemp terpenes. So I wouldn’t worry about this skewing the ability of a lab to differentiate real from fake. A lot of processors are adding 10-20% isolates to hemp/cannabis terpenes and it’s quite obvious when this happens if you know what you’re looking for. Hashishene can also show up in residual amounts in some terpene isolates I’m told however I have not seen accounts of this firsthand.
Perhaps the lab making this got their act together and your sample is clean. I would be very supportive if they did so please share the results after. I would not assume it’s safe for consumption until you get it tested. Beta-Myrcene is already a mess as far as stability is concerned and the samples of this I’ve seen have been nasty.

The crop are traditionnaly sun cured.
I think some changed the method this last decade, with the strain hash.
Traditional one also always do contain 2-3% cbd.

I’ve seen a lot of discussion in Europe about the hasishene terpene lately. Has anyone seen a source for this terpene lately?
Is it why all old hash has a similar smell? Does myrcene break down?
EDIT: Would help if I read the thread.

Have you had any experience with it? Everything I’ve been reading says hard to extract and the samples out there are typically converted Myrcene and not very clean
Hasheshene is NOT the Marocan taste it s maybe one of the many compounds that make this taste
The sample I showed at the time was
Indeed hasheshene produced by uv iridiation of myrceen by tresco labs
Gmbh Germany ( they closed shop)
I am still in persuit of the marocco sent and tast keep you posted
