Tinctures are liquid extracts made from cannabis that are typically consumed orally. They are created by soaking cannabis flowers, or sometimes other parts of the plant, in high-proof alcohol, which extracts the cannabinoids and other beneficial compounds. Tinctures are known for their versatility and ease of use; they can be taken sublingually (under the tongue) for faster absorption or added to food and beverages. They offer precise dosing control and are favored by many for their discreet nature and quick onset of effects compared to other edibles. Tinctures come in various strengths and formulations, catering to different preferences and therapeutic needs of users.
