Natural β-Caryophyllene is a major sesquiterpene isolated from clove oil, black pepper, and select cannabis strains. Characterized by its warm, spicy-woody aroma with peppery undertones, it is the only known *dietary terpene* that acts as a selective agonist of the **CB2 receptor** (part of the endocannabinoid system). This pale yellow to amber viscous liquid offers exceptional stability and unique therapeutic potential without psychoactive effects.
