Liquid Diamonds
The ultimate guide to premium THCA diamond concentrates
What Are Liquid Diamonds?
Liquid diamonds (also called "diamond sauce") are a premium cannabis concentrate combining THCA diamonds—pure crystalline structures of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid—with high-terpene extract (HTE) sauce. This creates an incredibly potent and flavorful product that cannabis connoisseurs highly prize.
At The Library dispensary in West Orange, NJ, liquid diamonds represent the pinnacle of cannabis concentrate technology, offering 90%+ THC potency combined with rich terpene profiles for an unmatched experience.
Understanding THCA Diamonds
What Are Diamonds?
THCA diamonds are crystalline structures of pure THCA (98-99.9% purity). They look like shiny, translucent crystals—hence the name "diamonds." When heated, THCA converts to psychoactive THC.
How They're Made
Diamonds form through a specialized extraction and crystallization process. Cannabis oil is purged under specific temperature and pressure conditions over weeks, allowing THCA molecules to separate and crystallize.
The "Sauce" Component
The terpene-rich liquid surrounding diamonds is called "sauce." It contains high concentrations of flavorful terpenes and other cannabinoids that enhance the entourage effect.

How to Use Liquid Diamonds
Dabbing (Most Common)
Heat a dab nail to 450-550°F. Use a dabber tool to place a small amount (rice grain size) on the heated surface. Inhale slowly. Low temps preserve terpene flavor.
Equipment needed: Dab rig, torch or e-nail, dabber tool, carb cap
Vaporizer Pens
Some concentrate-compatible vape pens work with diamonds. Load small amount into ceramic chamber. Set to medium temp (350-400°F). Less common method.
Look for pens designed for thick concentrates
Added to Flower
Place diamond on top of bowl or inside joint for enhanced potency. The flower provides heat to vaporize the concentrate. Beginner-friendly method.
Start with very small amounts—diamonds are extremely potent
⚠️ Warning: Liquid diamonds are for experienced users only. The extreme potency can overwhelm beginners. Start with tiny amounts.

Buying Guide: What to Look For
✓ Crystal Clarity
High-quality diamonds are translucent or clear. Cloudy or dark crystals indicate impurities or improper processing.
✓ Sauce Color
The sauce should be golden to amber. Rich color indicates high terpene content. Avoid brown or murky sauce.
✓ Lab Testing
Always buy from licensed dispensaries like The Library. Lab tests confirm potency and purity, ensuring no harmful contaminants.
✓ Aroma
Strong, pleasant terpene aroma indicates quality. Each strain should smell distinct. Weak or chemical smell = avoid.
