Bergamotene

Bergamotene is usually discussed as alpha-bergamotene and beta-bergamotene. People search bergamotene, alpha-bergamotene, and bergamotene terpene. Bergamotene is the umbrella name here. The isomers differ by bond placement. Labs may print one form or the other. Treat them as the same search unless a panel is clearly splitting them.

The name points at bergamot. The smell is spicy, woody, and tea-like rather than loud lemon-candy. Limonene is zest. Valencene is orange peel. Bergamotene is the spice-wood bergamot cousin, a sesquiterpene, often given as C15H24 for the isomers.

Plant lists include basil, black pepper, citrus oils, and other spice-wood sources. On cannabis panels bergamotene is uncommon as a headline. Older static notes on this site mentioned lemon-haze type names beside it. Those are mentions. A bergamot-spice line does not prove Super Lemon Haze or any one parent.

Caryophyllene is the closer spice neighbor when a sheet is pepper-wood instead of bergamot-tea. Keep those two distinct. Two jars can both print bergamotene and still be different plants. Earl Grey and bergamot-tea memory is how many readers place the word. That memory is not a printed percent.

Amounts change by sample and method. One harvest is one snapshot.
