Frequently Asked Questions

Cold cured craft resin is cannabis extract made from whole flower that has been slow-dried and cured at controlled temperatures. This process preserves the plant's natural terpene profile — the compounds responsible for aroma, flavor, and effect. Unlike distillate, nothing is added or removed. The result is a vape that tastes like the flower it came from.

Most vape cartridges use distillate — a highly refined oil stripped of its natural terpenes, then re-flavored with botanical or cannabis-derived terpenes. Alive & Well uses zero distillate. Our carts contain one ingredient: cold cured craft resin extracted from Humboldt County flower. You get the full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes exactly as the plant produced them.

Alive & Well is available at licensed dispensaries across California. Visit our California dispensary locator to see the full list of retailers carrying our products. We distribute through Nabis, California's leading cannabis marketplace.

Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in all plants — they give lavender its scent, lemons their citrus aroma, and cannabis its distinctive smell. In cannabis, terpenes work alongside cannabinoids to shape your experience. By preserving the natural terpene profile through cold curing, our products deliver the authentic flavor and effect of each strain.

We source from small farms in Humboldt County — the heart of California's Emerald Triangle. Our partner farms grow sun-grown, outdoor and light-dep cannabis. Every batch starts with flower we'd smoke ourselves.

Store your cartridge upright in a cool, dark place at room temperature. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or in a hot car — heat can degrade the oil, affect flavor, and cause leaking. Keeping it upright ensures the oil stays in contact with the atomizer so every hit is smooth. Storing it upside down can pull the oil away and give you a dry hit.
