You’ve heard a lot about CBD concentrates, but what about CBG (cannabigerol) Live Rosin? Akira Botanicals makes this potent concentrate from high-grade CBG flowers and can produce some very nice effects. In this blog, we’ll explore what CBG Live Rosin is, how it’s made, its potential benefits, and where you can find it.
What is CBG?
First, a quick reminder of what CBG is. It’s one of the many naturally occurring cannabinoids in the hemp plant, and research has shown that it may play an essential role in balancing the effects of THC. While concentrations of CBG are usually low (less than 1%) in most strains, breeders have been working to create higher CBG varieties.
However, the small amount doesn’t mean it’s “new.” Raphael Mechoulam, the father of cannabis science, first isolated it in 1964. When reviewing CBG products, know the medical community is well aware of its potential and has studied it for some time.
CBG from Hemp is Legal
Like CBD and other hemp compounds, the CBG extracted from hemp is 100% legal in the United States. You don’t need to worry about legal ramifications when purchasing CBG Live Rosin from Akira Botanicals. Enjoy our potent concentrate, knowing that it follows all the federal regulations.
What is CBG Live Rosin?
We use state-of-the-art technology to ensure our CBG Live Rosin is pure and potent. CBG Live Rosin is a high-grade concentrate made from CBG flower that is produced using an extraction process called “rosin pressing.” Rosin is produced by freezing the flower, then subjecting it to an ice wash in which the trichomes are filtered through various micron bags. This process causes the oils and trichomes in the hemp flower to break away from the plant matter, resulting in a highly concentrated product free of solvents or additives.
This leaves a ‘slurry’ at the bottom of the bag, which is then promptly put into a freeze dryer to remove the water. When it comes out of the freeze dryer, we have a very fine ‘kief’ or hash that is then put through a rosin press at low temps to ‘squeeze’ the hash and produce a gooey substance known as rosin.
How Does CBG Differ From CBD?
There are distinct differences between the two compounds found in the plant. CBG is the “parent” cannabinoid of CBD, meaning it’s the compound from which they derive other cannabinoids, such as CBD and THC. Because it forms first in the hemp plant, there’s little left of it by the time flowers reach maturity. CBG also interacts with different receptors in the body than CBD, making it more beneficial than CBD for specific conditions.
The trichome structure of the flower is also different. Whereas CBD flower tends to be sticky and highly resinous, CBG flower has a ‘sandy’ feel with low resin content. This makes it great for an ice wash but less ideal for an extraction method such as BHO (Butane Hash Oil).
What are the Benefits of Using CBG Live Rosin?
CBG Live Rosin is a potent concentrate that can deliver intense effects. It has the potential to produce therapeutic benefits similar to CBD, with its own unique set of properties. Some wellness advantages consumers review about CBG include:
CBG For Inflammation
CBG has anti-inflammation properties, which means it has the potential to help with the long list of conditions that excess inflammation can cause, such as muscle pain, arthritis, other joint pain, digestive problems, and autoimmune disorders.
CBG to Relax the Mind and Body
CBG has calming effects, which can help relieve stress and tension. It may help manage insomnia and sleep disturbances. People have trouble sleeping because of excess muscle tension and anxiousness. CBG may bring them restful sleep.
CBG to Increase Appetite
CBG can also help increase appetite and aid in digestion. This benefits those who struggle with eating disorders or have difficulty consuming food because of medical conditions.
CBG as an Antibacterial
CBG has antibacterial properties, which means it can help fight microbial infections. This makes it an excellent choice for those suffering from bacterial illnesses like bronchitis, strep throat, and sinus infections as a complementary therapy.
CBG as an Anti-Cancer Supplement
CBG also may have cancer-fighting properties and could aid in preventing and treating certain types of cancer. While further research is needed, some studies have shown that CBG has the potential to reduce tumor size and may even slow the growth of cancer cells.
Researchers are still studying the potential benefits of CBG, but it looks promising.

How to Use CBG Live Rosin
Now that you know a bit more about CBG Live Rosin let’s look at how you can use it.
CBG Live Rosin Dabs
The most popular way to consume CBG Live Rosin is by dabbing it. Dabbing requires a dab rig, a type of pipe that can be heated and the concentrate applied for inhalation. This method is preferred because too much heat can degrade the cannabinoid compounds and terpene profiles. However, if you’d rather avoid using a torch, they sell E-nail dab rigs with an electrical heating element that is used to reach optimal temperatures and create vapor.
CBG Live Rosin Edibles
You can add CBG Live Rosin to various food and beverage recipes to create delicious edibles. CBG is heat-stable, so it won’t degrade when added to food and beverages. Use minimal heat when making edibles with CBG Live Rosin to ensure the compounds remain intact.
Add CBG Live Rosin to Flower
You can add CBG Live Rosin to your flower for an extra kick of potency. This is a great way to customize the effect of your flower and create a unique blend tailored to your individual needs.
