Presented by Amanda Breeze, Emerald Temple Living

Amanda offers diverse perspectives and knowledge in all areas of the Cannabis Industry with over a decade of experience working with this amazing plant.

Amanda is a certified Cannabis Sommelier through the Trichome Institute Interpening Program. Their program offers greater insight into the quantitative quality assessment of Cannabis flowers, and the ability to interpret cannabis terpenes and determine the potential psychoactive effects of any strain.

Amanda is a Certified Aromatherapist and Lotioncrafter, having completed the Wholistic Aromatherapy Certification Program and Apprenticeship at Anarres Natural Health Apothecary in Toronto. She specializes in Cannabis Topical Formulations and the successful therapeutic applications of terpenes in cannabis medicine and aromatherapy. As a Cannabis formulator, Amanda has a deep understanding of cannabinoids in medicinal infusions and how they work in the body.

Amanda’s exceptional ability to assess quality cannabis products comes from a professional working knowledge of the plant and her unique industry experience. She has worked with master growers in British Colombia and Ontario, but most of her experience comes from the legacy farms of Northern California.

I’ve had the pleasure of learning about the cultivation, processing, and medicinal uses of Cannabis on farms across Humboldt, Trinity Pines, and Mendocino Counties- infamously known as the Emerald Triangle. Working directly with farmers from seed to harvest brings appreciation and respect for the plant and the people who risked their lives for generations to grow this natural and powerful medicine for their communities.

Being able to work directly with these generational legacy and craft farms has offered me access to some of the finest cannabis to innovate and formulate with. What makes my process unique is that I choose very specific strains for their cannabinoid and terpene profiles to create whole-plant infusions. I use a variety of menstruums to achieve the best results for cannabinoid dosages and ratios, then combine them with supportive therapeutic botanicals, medicinal herbs, and pure essential oil blends. I stack the terpenes in both the cannabis and essential oils to strengthen the purpose of every formula.
