What Is a Cannabis Dab?

A dab is a concentrate format. It describes how a concentrated cannabis product is presented, not its flavor; “live resin” describes the extract when that detail is approved.

Dab is the format label. Look beside it for extract type, package size, flavor profile, and final package directions.

HOW TO USE THE WORD

The useful distinction.

WHAT IT TELLS YOU

The word dab helps you compare methods, not flavors. YUM keeps that distinction visible so you can choose a profile and then choose a format.

WHAT IT DOESN'T TELL YOU

Live resin and dab answer different questions: live resin is an extract category; dab is the format. A product can be both, while another dab may use a different approved extract.

HOW YUM USES IT

YUM's current dab records are 1g live resin products organized by flavor. Start on the flavor page, then open the product page to see Format, Extract type, and Package size in one place.

WHAT TO CHECK NEXT

Read the product page and final label together. Follow the package directions, compatibility requirements, warnings, and local law; do not use a flavor description as a substitute for product instructions.

COMMON QUESTIONS

A clearer answer, when you need one.

Is a dab the same as live resin?

No. Dab is the format; live resin is an extract category. A product may be a live resin dab, but the terms are not interchangeable.

How do I choose a YUM dab?

Start with the flavor that sounds good, then verify the product page's extract type and package size before following the final label directions.
