Many countries and states have legalized marijuana. Since marijuana is going mainstream, it’s reaching new levels of superiority. Somehow, people enjoy pairing weed and wine for various reasons. And this combination is seemingly on the rise as other people adopt this culture.

Years before weed became legal. It has been sharing an unrefined relationship with food and beverages. As such, there are edibles made of pot, and the pairing is just perfect. THC is the main ingredient in pot, and it lures the body into hunger; thus, leading to food cravings.

When tried with wine, marijuana brings about the best experience. That is why we are explaining deeper why weed and wine go together in the section below.

The Basics of Marijuana

Marijuana comes from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa. It is characterized by either a green, gray, or brown appearance. The mixture consists of dry, shredded leaves, seeds, stems, and flowers of the cannabis plant. It is commonly referred to as weed, herb, pot, weed flower, and dope. Other street names include bud, ganja, boom, Mary Jane, skunk, spliff, grass, reefer, gangster, and more.

Smoking pot alters the mind as it is a recreational drug for some medical conditions. Other people use it for religious and spiritual purposes. For a long time, many states hadn’t legalized the use of weed because it was the most abused drug. However, some states are adopting it for the various benefits it has.

How Does Weed Flower Work?

THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) is the main psychoactive ingredient in pot. Psychoactive means that it has a way of altering the mind. That is why it is a recreational drug. The dried flowers (buds) have the highest concentrations of THC. When smoking pot, THC passes rapidly from the lungs straight to the bloodstream and is then distributed to the brain and other organs in the body.

THC works on specific sensory organs in the brain, referred to as cannabinoid receptors. The receptors cause a chain of cellular reactions to begin leading to euphoria. Users term this experience as the ‘high’ feeling. While in this state, you may feel relaxed with a superior sensory perception. Higher THC levels cause the users to experience anxiety or paranoia and sometimes panic attacks. That is why it is recommended to take in low levels of THC. And if you are going Holy Smokes you will have to have a bong to go with your whole set up. Smoking from a water pipe is a must have!
