Description
A Nectar Collector is a specialized tool used to vaporize cannabis concentrates such as wax, shatter, and badder. Distinguished by its unique design, it vaporizes concentrates without burning them, thereby preserving the natural constituents of your cannabis extracts. Though it is technically not a vaporizer, it was initially termed a “vertical vaporizer,” “dab straw,” or “honey straw.” The name “Nectar Collector” originated from the first such product to hit the market and has become the widely accepted terminology for this apparatus. Available in a variety of sizes and materials—primarily glass or silicone—Nectar Collectors offer a customizable experience to fit individual preferences.
A Nectar Collector comprises three main parts: the neck, the body, and the tip. The neck serves as the mouthpiece for inhalation. The body, located between the neck and the tip, functions similarly to the water chamber in a bong or dab rig and can be used either with or without water to filter the vapor (wet vs. dry Nectar Collector). The tip, made of quartz or titanium, is equivalent to the bowl of a bong or the nail of a dab rig.
#Basic Steps for Utilizing a Nectar Collector:
1. Place the cannabis concentrate in a glass serving dish.
2. Heat the tip of the Nectar Collector with a butane torch lighter until it’s very hot.
3. Allow the tip to cool for a minute.
4. Pick up the dish holding your concentrate.
5. Once the tip has cooled sufficiently, place your mouth on the neck and tap the hot tip into the dish along the pile of concentrate. The longer you hold the tip in the concentrate, the more vapor will be produced.
6. Inhale.
To enhance your experience, a wide selection of premium assorted concentrates can be used with your Nectar Collector. Several torch lighters are also available for your convenience, including the Blink Torch Lighter and the Generic Torch Lighter.
Aroma and Flavor
Though primarily a tool for vaporizing concentrates, a Nectar Collector can help preserve the rich, full-bodied aroma and flavor of your cannabis extracts. The flavor intensity can vary depending on the concentrate used and the material of the Nectar Collector, offering a customizable experience.
Vibe
Using a Nectar Collector offers a unique and efficient method of consuming cannabis concentrates, often providing a clean, smooth, and potent experience. This method is ideal for seasoned users seeking robust effects without the need for a full dab rig
