Fennel Notes
Fennel notes refer to aromatic compounds that evoke the characteristic sweet, licorice-like profile associated with fennel seeds and plant material. In cannabis, these aromas typically arise from combinations of anethole and other volatile compounds rather than fennel-specific terpenes. Fennel-noted strains are relatively uncommon in commercial breeding lineages but occasionally appear in cultivars with specific Mediterranean or spice-forward genetic backgrounds. The aroma is often described as warm, slightly sweet, and herbaceous, distinguishing it from more common cannabis terpene profiles. Documentation of fennel aromatics in cannabis remains limited compared to citrus or floral notes, making it a niche descriptor in lineage records.

Breeders pursuing complex, spice-forward flavor profiles sometimes select parent plants displaying fennel-adjacent aromatics to intensify this trait in offspring. This characteristic is typically secondary to primary terpene expression rather than a dominant breeding target.
