Jushi Holdings Inc said it has launched its first line of solventless live rosin extracts through its award-winning vape products and concentrates brand, The Lab.
The Lab Solventless Live RSN product line is made purely from premium flower and extracted simply with ice and water, the company said. It includes a 0.5-gram vape extract cartridge that is available now and 1g jarred concentrates coming soon exclusively at BEYOND/HELLO store locations in Pennsylvania.
This summer, Jushi expects to launch the line at locations in Massachusetts, Nevada and Virginia, pending regulatory approvals.

“Consumer demand for live rosin cartridges and concentrates is on the rise,” CEO Jim Cacioppo said in a statement. “Forged solely by the forces of nature, The Lab Solventless Live Rosin line captures the essence of whole premium flower, sets a new standard for quality in this fast-growing cannabis category, and brings customers some of the purest cannabis products available on the market today.”
In the extraction process, premium flower is flash frozen and ice water is used to gently extract the cannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids, the company said. From there, the cannabinoid-rich mixture is dried and pressed using heat and pressure to produce concentrate.
"Solventless products represent the pinnacle of extraction, as they capture the fullest expression of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids unique to each cultivar in concentrated form,” Cacioppo said. “Initially a niche category confined to dabbable concentrates, the demand for solventless is on the rise and there is a growing presence of solventless vapes and edibles with solventless inputs in markets throughout the country.”
The Lab Solventless Live Rosin expands Jushi’s suite of branded cannabis products, which also includes The Bank, Sèchè, and Tasteology.
