About Amber Ice
Amber Ice is the debut solvent-less hash concentrate from TAYLOR’D EXTRACTS BY WIZ KHALIFA. Amber Ice is made by mixing fresh frozen nug with water and ice. The trichomes are then mechanically extracted. The solution that results is then filtered through a series of micron-sized screens that catch all the trichomes. Water extraction is the purest means to make concentrates since there are no solvents used when making this product, which allows for less disruption of the trichomes. Amber Ice is available exclusively at RiverRock in the state of Colorado.
