A THC vape is the most discreet way to enjoy cannabis: no rolling, little smell and an effect you feel within minutes. Here is how the pens work, how to choose one and how to use your first.
What is in a THC vape?
Our vapes are disposable pens filled with 1ml of THC distillate, heated by an etched ceramic coil.
Distillate is cannabis oil refined to a very high THC concentration, with terpenes blended back in for flavour. A small battery heats the coil until the oil turns to vapour, not smoke, which is why vaping is gentler on the throat and leaves far less smell than a joint. Disposable means there is nothing to fill, charge or clean: when the pen runs out, you are done.
Sativa, indica or hybrid?
Every pen is labelled with its strain and type. The type is a quick guide to the kind of experience most people report.
Sativa pens
Often described as bright and uplifting. Durban Poison, Paradise Skunk and Bio Diesel.
Awaken Durban PoisonIndica pens
Often described as calm and heavy-bodied. Purple Urkle is the one for a night in.
Awaken Purple UrkleHybrid pens
Somewhere in between, and usually the most flavourful. Cotton Candy, Granazilla, Watermelon Yeti and Baked Churros.
Awaken Cotton CandyThe Awaken range
Nine strains, what each tastes like and how long a pen lasts.
The Awaken guideStrain types are a guide rather than a promise. How a vape feels depends on you, how much you take and your setting.
How to use your first THC vape
Shop vapes- 01
Unwrap and check
Remove the packaging and any tip cover from the mouthpiece.
- 02
Take a slow draw
Inhale gently for two to three seconds, like sipping through a straw.
- 03
Hold briefly
A second or two is plenty. Holding longer adds nothing.
- 04
Wait 10 minutes
Vapes work quickly. Give the first puff time before a second.
- 05
Stop at two
For a first session, one or two puffs is enough.
- 06
Store it upright
Keep it cool, capped and out of reach of children.

Which suits you
A vape works in minutes and fades in two to three hours, so it is easy to control. A gummy takes up to two hours to arrive and lasts much longer. If you want to feel it quickly and keep it short, vape. If you do not want to inhale anything, choose a gummy.
Discreet is not the same as allowed
Low smell does not make public vaping legal. Use it in private, and check whether your hotel or host treats vaping as smoking, as most do.
For a first session, one or two slow puffs. Wait about ten minutes between puffs, because the effect builds quickly.
Usually within a few minutes, and it fades over two to three hours, which makes vaping easier to control than edibles.
Our disposable pens come ready to use. There is nothing to fill or clean, and when the pen is finished you dispose of it responsibly.
Much less than smoke, and the smell fades within minutes. It is still cannabis, so use it only where you are allowed to.
Sativa pens are often described as bright and uplifting, indica pens as calm and relaxing, and hybrids sit in between. The strain is printed on every pen.
