About this profile
MAC 6 is strongly terpinolene-led: terpinolene makes up roughly 47% of its measured terpenes, with beta-pinene and limonene behind it. Those lead terpenes are usually described as fresh, woody notes with citrus and floral touches (terpinolene) and woody, green pine (beta-pinene). Terpinolene-led profiles are uncommon, about 8% of the library. Looking at the numbers, THC averaged 18.4%, toward the lower end of the library, and total terpenes averaged 1.18%, toward the lower end of the library. It rests on 8 lab samples, all from Nevada, so the picture is fairly steady. Listed as a numbered variant of MAC; see MAC for the base profile.
