Toad Terpene Infused Meaning & Origin Story
Tyson’s weed ranch teamed up with Futurola, his rolling company, to create the “The Toad Blunt Cone,” sometimes also referred to as “Tyson Ranch’s “The Toad” Terpene-Infused Blunt Cones.“ Quite the mouthful, which is quite on-brand for a joint that has a lot to offer.
The Toad is essentially a terpene-infused blunt cone wrapped in tobacco-free paper. So, why toads? Well, the terpenes are drawn from a unique Tyson Ranch strain “The Toad,” itself inspired by venomous toads that led the ex-boxer on a life-altering psychedelic trip.
Hence, the Toad Terpene.
Toad Terpene Effects & Flavor Profile
Toad terpenes have a rather unique profile. Its flavor can vary depending on the specific genetics of its source plant. While some strains have a higher level of specific terpenes, the terpene profiles can be entirely different from one plant to the next.
Regardless of variations, though, terpenes give each strain its aroma and flavor. And some can pack quite the punch, leaving your whole home smelling like weed for hours.
Most commonly, The Toad includes the terpenes myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene. These are known for adding an earthy or musky flavor, with some stoners also detecting hints of citrus. While some find it salty, others find it sweet. As such, toad terpenes add a unique twist to the taste of your regular strains.
If you’ve experimented with flavors, you might be aware that blending flavors actually accentuates the overall experience. Sweet and salty flavors can dull sharp and spicy ones, for instance. But they bring out the taste hidden beneath the heat. The same rules apply to the addition of toad terpenes.
Each blunt wrap cone is infused with natural terpenes, enhancing the natural terpenes in the bud. It’s an absolute mood booster for sure, on top of offering a trippy high.
Are Mike Tyson Toad Wraps Worth the Hype?
You might wonder whether there’s anything to the hype. No explanation can match firsthand experience. But we can certainly sweeten the pot by telling you what you get out of it.
The Toad is an expertly crafted pre-rolled blunt cone wrap. A king-size blunt is approximately 11 cm or 4.3 inches long. They can hold up to a gram of your herb.
It also comes with a filter tip and is noted for being stiffer than a typical joint cone. As such, it packs well in its air-sealed, reusable glass vial with a screw-on cap. A vial that also happens to feature Tyson’s face.
