CBD flowers are becoming more and more popular in Switzerland. But what exactly are CBD flowers? How do the different strains differ – and why does each one taste different?
In this guide we explain everything you need to know about CBD flowers, their properties, their aroma and what to look for when buying.
🌿 What are CBD flowers?
CBD flowers are the dried flowers of the female hemp plant (Cannabis sativa L.). They contain a high proportion of cannabidiol (CBD) and less than 1% THC – which makes them legal in Switzerland.
Unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive. That means no intoxication, no “high” – just a relaxing, balancing effect.

🧬 Why do CBD flowers differ in aroma?
The main reason for the different taste and smell profiles is a group of compounds called terpenes.
🔬 What are terpenes?
Terpenes are natural aroma compounds found in many plants – not just cannabis, but also citrus fruits, lavender and pine.
They create:
- 🍋 fruity & lemony notes
- 🌸 floral & sweet aromas
- 🌲 earthy & spicy nuances
- 🍭 sweet, candyfloss-like flavours
Depending on the strain and its terpene profile, the taste experience can be completely different.
🌈 Examples of different aroma profiles
Here are some typical flavours you’ll find in CBD flowers:
🍋 Lemony & fresh
Strains such as Lemon Haze stand out with zesty lemon freshness and light herbal notes.
🍓 Fruity & sweet
Fruity Kali or Rainbow Slush offer sweet, fruity aromas – sometimes with a candyfloss touch.
🌿 Earthy classics
Strains like Granddaddy Rambo or Legendary OG have a spicy, earthy base with intense depth.

🌱 How growing & processing affect aroma
Genetics aren’t the only thing that shapes the aroma – these factors matter too:
- 🌞 indoor vs. outdoor growing
- 🌿 nutrients & soil quality
- 💨 drying & curing
- ✋ careful hand processing
High-quality CBD flowers – like those at weedx.ch – are gently dried and carefully stored so that terpenes and cannabinoids are preserved as well as possible.
💨 How are CBD flowers consumed?
CBD flowers can be used in different ways:
- 🔥 classic, with rolling papers
- 💨 with activated carbon filters for a cooler draw
- ⚙️ ground evenly beforehand with a grinder
- 🌡️ gently vaporised with a vaporizer
Each method can change the taste experience slightly.
⚖️ CBD vs THC – the difference
Many people ask:
Are CBD flowers the same as cannabis?
The answer: botanically yes – legally and in effect, no.
CBD flowers:
- contain less than 1% THC
- are not intoxicating
- are legal in Switzerland
- are used for relaxation & well-being
