It\u2019s a hot time for hemp-based options, and <a href=\"https:\/\/baysmokes.com\/products\/hhc-cartridge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">HHC<\/a> is emerging as a major one. It can be a little harder to find than some of the fresh new options, but it has an identity all its own that can take your highs to new heights.<\/p>\n<p>Short for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/strains-products\/what-is-hhc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">hexahydrocannabinol<\/a>, naturally occurring HHC pops up in different parts of the plant than most cannabinoids\u2014the seeds and pollen, rather than the sweet, sticky buds\u2014so it makes sense that it\u2019s a little more off the beaten path. It also kicks in almost instantaneously when it\u2019s vaped, even quicker than the THC family, and consumers report effects that are both energizing and relaxing.<\/p>\n<p>Like other hemp-derived cannabinoids,&nbsp;it shares the same federal legal status as other hemp products under the Farm Bill. And since it\u2019s not THC, it enjoys a little more freedom, even in some areas with restrictions on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/science-tech\/what-is-delta8-thc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">delta-8<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/strains-products\/want-to-try-hot-new-cannabinoids-like-delta-10-thcp-it-pays-to-have-a-friend-like-bay-smokes\" class=\"wp-block-leafly-blocks-leafly-single-inline-block leafly-inline-related-story\" rel=\" nofollow\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 my-xl p-md font-bold\">\n<p>Related<\/p>\n<p>Want to try hot, new cannabinoids like delta-10 &amp; THCP? It pays to have a friend like Bay Smokes<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Since HHC exists in small amounts in small parts of the plant, the HHC you see on the market is derived from other cannabinoids like CBD in a laboratory. Because of that, you\u2019ll want to make sure you\u2019re getting it from a safe and reliable source. The hemp geniuses at <a href=\"https:\/\/baysmokes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Bay Smokes<\/a> <em>just<\/em> added HHC to their lineup of delta-10, delta-8, THCp, and CBD products, and they\u2019re pretty obsessive about making things perfect.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what happened when this writer tried their brand new HHC wares, along with some need-to-know HHC info.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" alt=\"HHC with Bay Smokes\" class=\"wp-image-193127 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-1.png,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-1.png,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-1.png,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-1.png,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Courtesy of Bay Smokes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-how-is-hhc-made\">How is HHC made?<\/h2>\n<p>HHC has a long history in the laboratory: It was first synthesized in the 1940s by American chemist Roger Adams, who hydrogenated THC to create HHC. That\u2019s the same hydrogenation that makes oil into margarine!<\/p>\n<p>When HHC is made from hemp, CBD is usually the starting point. Experienced scientists process these cannabinoids carefully\u2014it\u2019s safe to consume, but should only be made in a lab. There are two types of HHC molecules, so getting a <em>great<\/em> product is a little more complicated. All the more reason to trust the pros.<\/p>\n<p>Bay Smokes makes potent HHC products that are never made with thinning agents\u2014and you can double-check those guarantees with readily available lab results.<\/p>\n<h2>Trying Bay Smokes HHC<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" alt=\"HHC with Bay Smokes\" class=\"wp-image-193126 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-2.png,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-2.png,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-2.png,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-2.png,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Courtesy of Bay Smokes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We got a chance to try the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/brands\/bay-smokes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Bay Smokes<\/a> HHC vape in Maui Wowie, which is super sleek and compact so it feels great to both hold and draw from. The strain has a clean, tropical taste\u2014a very welcome bit of early summertime in Leafly\u2019s HQ city, famously grey &amp; rainy Seattle\u2014and hit harder than you\u2019d expect from a disposable. The drag felt solid with a nice balance between comfort and clouds and, of course, plenty of flavor. The high, as advertised, comes on fast.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The high is clear and giddy, and while it was psychoactive, it didn\u2019t have the stoniness you\u2019d get from THC. We\u2019ve heard the HHC high compared to a \u201csativa-like\u201d high, and it certainly is invigorating\u2014but those who typically avoid sativa strains could still have a lot of fun with this. It layers its upbeat energy with a cool chill foundation. Like hanging out with your most interesting besties, it\u2019s incredibly fun, but low-pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Since we\u2019re in a rec legal cannabis state here in Washington, we did follow it up with some standard herb, and we highly recommend it: They complemented each other very well, with a well-rounded high that kept our minds active and curious.<\/p>\n<p>Bay Smokes\u2019 HHC comes in both disposable vapes and 510 carts\u2014and along with Maui Wowie, they come in Watermelon OG and Guava.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" alt=\"HHC with Bay Smokes\" class=\"wp-image-193125 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-3.png,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-3.png,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-3.png,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-3.png,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Courtesy of Bay Smokes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Choose your own cannabinoids<\/h2>\n<p>Of course, Bay Smokes\u2019 HHC vape is great\u2014it\u2019s part of a really killer lineup of hemp-derived, terpene-packed vapes, dabs, gummies, tinctures, and <a href=\"https:\/\/baysmokes.com\/collections\/flower\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">even flower<\/a>. Here\u2019s what else is on the table and how it stacks up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CBD: <\/strong>The classic cannabinoid gets a super-fresh treatment from Bay Smokes, with both fresh herb and a crystalline distillate that comes in nine different terpene blends. Unlike HHC, it won\u2019t get you high.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Delta-8: <\/strong>This THC-lite is everywhere, but it gets the star treatment from Bay Smokes, with a little bit of everything: Vapes, drink mixes, fresh herb, pre-rolls, tinctures, and a variety of edibles both sweet and savory. This is going to be downtempo and a tick more psychoactive than HHC, but the two might make a nice pairing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Delta-10: <\/strong>Delta-10 is more energetic than delta-8 with about the same level of psychoactivity, and the two go quite well together\u2014and they\u2019re both going to be headier than HHC. Bay Smokes has this one in vapes, cartridges, and peach ring gummies.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/cannabis-101\/what-is-delta-10\" class=\"wp-block-leafly-blocks-leafly-single-inline-block leafly-inline-related-story\" rel=\" nofollow\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"border border-deep-green-alt border-l-0 border-r-0 my-xl p-md font-bold\">\n<p>Related<\/p>\n<p>What is delta-10?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a> <\/p>\n<p><strong>THC, CBD, and CBG<\/strong>: Bay Smokes\u2019 Moon Rocks contain layers and layers of potency. High-quality buds are soaked in either delta-10 or delta-8 distillate then rolled in CBD and CBG kief. The result is 30% cannabinoids, and a broad-spectrum effect that goes beyond just the high: The CBD and CBG offer non-psychoactive healing properties, but they also help you get the most out of your THC. This is, of course, far more layered than HHC alone.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" alt=\"HHC with Bay Smokes\" class=\"wp-image-193123 has-ll lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-4.png,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-4.png,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-4.png,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/we-tried-hhc-with-bay-smokes-4.png,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Courtesy of Bay Smokes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>THC-O: <\/strong>If you\u2019re looking for it, this is the THC that\u2019s going to have the most potent psychoactive effects. It\u2019s more potent than delta-8, delta-10, and potentially even standard delta-9 THC\u2014and most certainly hits harder than HHC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THCp and delta-8: <\/strong>THCp is a relatively new discovery, but it has a greater capacity to bind to our body\u2019s receptors\u2014so it could be really nice for someone with a high tolerance. <a href=\"https:\/\/baysmokes.com\/products\/thcp-cartridge-d8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Try this<\/a> if you want just a touch more oomph in your delta-8.
