Woody Terpene Family
The woody terpene family encompasses aromatic compounds commonly associated with cedar, sandalwood, and pine-like scent profiles in cannabis. These terpenes include cedrol, α-cedrene, and various sesquiterpenes that contribute structural complexity to the plant's volatile profile. Woody notes are often found in aged or cured cannabis, sometimes developing through oxidation and terpene degradation during storage. Breeders working with heritage and landrace genetics frequently report woody aromatics as a secondary or tertiary descriptor in their lineage documentation. The presence of woody compounds reflects both genetic expression and post-harvest processing conditions.

Breeders selecting for woody terpene expression typically focus on sesquiterpene-dominant parents, as these compounds develop more prominently in mature flower tissue and cure environments. Woody aromatics are often correlated with specific geographic origins and aging potential, making them relevant for preservation-focused breeding programs.
