Kief is the collected trichomes from cannabis buds, akin to a high grade hash. The concentrated THC and terpenes sprinkled into a joint, or on top of a bowl gives that smoke session a little extra zing.
The kief box has a top lid, and a bottom lid lined with easy to scrape black glass. The middle section of the box where the ground up bud goes has a screen on the bottom that only lets terpenes through, to collect on the bottom lid glass tray. You can see the little glimmering white trichomes coating the Orange Apricot bud in the photo below-right.
That's a sweet orange apricot scent coming from those ground up buds. The kief trichomes contain THC, CBD, flavor filled terpenes, and other active medicinal cannabinoids - the cream of the crop.
Look at that collection of sweet kief on that bottom lid tray, all those little trichomes slipped through the screen, tasty concentrate.
I packed up the wood bowl with some of the Orange Apricot buds, topped it with a pinch of kief, then blazed up the bowl. Extra citrus sweetness with that toke, the mind awakens with that little extra zing, tasty buzz. I'll have fun with this box, collecting the kief for special use.
