Dry Herb
Dry herb aroma describes a cannabis profile dominated by woody, hay-like, or cured-plant notes, often accompanied by subtle earthiness or straw-like character. This aroma is commonly associated with certain terpene combinations, particularly myrcene and pinene in lower-volatility expressions, and often emerges in aged flower or cannabis cured under specific environmental conditions. Breeders working with heritage and landrace genetics frequently report dry herb notes as a stable aromatic marker. The profile is distinct from fresh, grassy, or green notes, presenting instead as dried botanicals. This aroma classification appears across multiple strain families and seed types, making it a useful descriptor for genetic and phenotypic documentation.

Breeders pursuing stable, cured-state aromatics often select parent plants exhibiting dry herb character to reinforce consistency across generations. This trait can indicate slower volatile decay during post-harvest processing, valued for predictable storage profiles.
