the cryo cure difference
By researching, identifying, and refining the perfect balance of time, temperature, and pressure during the drying and curing process, Cryo Cure’s patented process results in a rich, smooth smoke that’s truly out of this world.
What’s all the hype about?
Cryo Cure’s patented method tackles some of the biggest challenges cultivators face in terms of drying time, issues that can crop up during processing, and preserving valuable cannabinoids and terpenes. But what does that mean for cannabis consumers?
No couchlock
The Cryo Cure process stabilizes THC-A content so it doesn’t degrade into CBN – the cannabinoid that can make you feel sluggish. There’s no “couch lock” when you consume Cryo Cure.
THE TERPENE CONTENT IS UNPARALLELED
The terpene content is unparalleled in Cryo Cured flower. Up to 95% of terpenes are saved because our process protects the trichomes on the flower that house them. The aroma and flavor of our flower is unmatched to any traditionally dried and cured cannabis or other freeze dried flower.
IT STAYS FRESHER FOR LONGER
When stored properly away from light and heat, Cryo Cured flower stays fresh for more than a year without losing its potency or appeal.
IT DOESN’T NEED A GRINDER
The integrity of Cryo Cure flower makes it easy to break apart with your hands. This flower has a unique spongy texture unlike anything you’ve tried before!

Cryo Cured vs. freeze dried vs. traditional cannabis
Although Cryo Cured and freeze dried cannabis share a similar process, there are several factors that make Cryo Cure stand tall above the rest. So if you’re reading the dispensary menu and wondering how and why Cryo Cure is worth a try, check this handy chart that summarizes the benefits and drawbacks of Cryo Cured cannabis, freeze dried cannabis, and traditionally dried and cured flower.
| Cryo-Cured Cannabis | Freeze-Dried Cannabis | Traditionally Dried & Cured Cannabis | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Terpene Preservation | Cryo Cure preserves trichomes without making them brittle. | Diminishes terpenes and is likely to dry out cannabis and cause brittleness | Traditional drying and curing leaves trichomes warped and shrunken. |
| Aroma and Flavor | The superior trichome preservation, and short stalk to smoke time period, means that Cryo Cure offers unforgettable flavor and scent. | Commercial freezer-dryers often remove too much moisture, which zaps aroma and flavor. | The weeks-long drying and curing process results in the natural evaporation of terpenes. |
| Flower Integrity | The Cryo Cure process preserves bud size, potency, and color, with no shrinkage, and the flower is easy to break apart for consumption. It’s Live Resin Flower that only Cryo Cure can deliver! | Freeze dried cannabis also doesn’t experience shrinkage, but the flower can be too dry and difficult to work with. | Traditionally dried and cured cannabis shrinks and loses its color during the process. |
| THC-A Preservation | Cryo Cure preserves and stabilizes THC-A before deterioration into CBN. It’s a euphoric high – no couch lock here. | Preserves THC-A, but terpenes may be lost in the process. | THC-A is not always stabilized and can degrade into CBN after the drying and curing process is complete. |
| Moisture Content Levels | The moisture content is dry enough to remediate mold and mildew, without sacrificing flower integrity. The process stabilizes water activity. The flower never tastes musty. | Commercial freeze-dryers are built to remove as much moisture as possible, but the flower often needs to be rehydrated for best results. | It’s quite difficult to control moisture levels with traditional drying and curing methods. |
| Shelf Life, When Stored Correctly | Cryo Cure cannabis can last for more than 1 year when stored properly in an airtight container away from light – without losing potency. | Varies, typically last up to a year | Varies, but loses roughly 16 percent of its THC after 1 year |
| Drying and Curing Time | As little as 11 to 14 hours | 24 hours to a few days | Weeks or months |
