Extraction & expression

Fractionation isolates a particular register of a larger material. Heads and terpene cuts tend toward lift; hearts focus the central identity; body and bottom cuts gather weight, shadow and less-volatile depth. Purification aims for a more focused, polished expression of the parent material. A residue is the remaining, lower-volatility register after another separation—valuable for shadow, texture and unusual weight.
