Chances are if you own a vaporizer you’ve probably only enjoyed dry herb or concentrate sessions with your device. But did you know there is a multitude of herbs to vape? Just like your favorite dry herb, each of these herbs has different tastes to stimulate or relax you. With so many herbs to choose from we’ve compiled a list of the ten best herbs to vape, if you have any you like that aren’t on this list let us know in the comments!

1. Thyme

Thyme is an herb to vape alone or in conjunction with your preferred dry herb material. This herb does create a bit of a buzz itself, and when used in conjunction with your special dry herb it can actually increase the effect, helping you to save some material. Thyme is traditionally thought to relieve hypersensitive conditions and gastric issues.

2.  Basil

For vape users suffering from a particularly gassy stomach, basil can be a fantastic herb to vape. The soothing aroma of Basil helps you relax, and volatile oils are released during the vaporization process which adds to the soothing and relaxing effects of the herb.

3. Lemon Balm

One of the more historically popular legal herbs to vape, Lemon Balm is commonly used to help gastrointestinal issues, the nervous system, and liver issues. Lemon Balm is also said to help aid in blood circulation, restless sleep, and a slowed down libido.

4. Damiana

Damiana is native to Central America and will give you a powerful aromatic taste as your vaporize. In terms of herbs to vape damiana induces a mild buzz, but nothing like that of your concentrate or dry herbs. People who practice herbal medicine use damiana to help with urinary infections and menstrual cramps. In one study with male and female rats, damiana was found to slightly increase sexual activity.

5. Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus is believed to be one of the more effective antibacterial herbs to vape. The pleasant aroma of eucalyptus can be helpful for those with an upset stomach, cold, or lung infection while also helping to fight oral bacteria that can cause things like tooth decay and gum disease. 

6. Peppermint

This is one of the top herbs used by people who want something other than “dry herb” in their vaporizer. The soothing effects of peppermint are combined with its pleasant taste that can help mask the poor taste of some herbs and aid in nausea. Peppermint is often used in conjunction with herbs that may have health benefits, but don’t taste very good.

7. Lavender

Lavender is the best herb to vape if you’re looking for calming effects. When vaping lavender you can expect to “come down to earth” a little bit and your body will benefit from its potent antibacterial properties. Pain relief and insomnia are common symptoms people combat with lavender. Aside from its calming effect and smell, lavender is known for its fantastic taste, especially if combined with an herb like peppermint.

8. Hops

Most people only know about hops from drinking beer, but it is also one of the best herbs to vape for restlessness, tension, and excitability. Hops offer a mild euphoric feeling with their complex flavor profile, making this the best dry herb to vape for beer enthusiasts. It is important to note that the effects of hops can vary widely due to there being so many different types of hops.

9. Kava Root

Thanks to its muscle relaxing properties Kava Root has recently become one of the more popular legal herbs to vape. Traditionally Kava Root was chewed or crushed to form a liquid, but thankfully now you can snag just the herb and load your vaporizer. Kava Root is mostly used to relieve anxiety.

10. Raspberry Leaf

If you’re in need of reliving your sore throat or common cold Raspberry Leaf is here to help you out. Historically used in herbal cigarettes by Native American tribes, Raspberry Leaf is a longstanding herbal remedy for gastrointestinal tract disorders and respiratory system problems. Aside from the fantastic taste and smell Raspberry Leaf is very fluffy, which makes it a fantastic legal herb to vape for a convection heated vaporizer.
