Distillate is the extract identified with the Silver Flavor Series. It is stripped and refined until it is essentially neutral, which is why Silver can lead with flavor names such as Grape, Strawberry, and Watermelon. Every Silver moon rock is made with flower, distillate, and kief, layered the way every Presidential moon rock is built.
A refined, neutral concentrate
Distillate is stripped and refined until it is essentially neutral, while live resin smells like the strain it came from in a way distillate cannot. That neutrality is the difference to understand first. For the strain-forward alternative, read What Is Live Resin; for the solventless route, read What Is Live Rosin.
Distillate in the Presidential infusion system
Each infused Presidential product starts with cannabis flower, adds a concentrate (distillate, live resin, or live rosin, depending on the series), and finishes with the dry material named on the package, such as kief. Presidential's infusion process carries distillate through the flower rather than only coating the surface, then applies the kief layer as the final step. See What Are Moon Rocks for the three layers.
The Silver Flavor Series is built on distillate
The Silver Flavor Series is built on THC distillate. Its flavor-first, fruit-forward roster is Blue Raspberry, Grape, Peach Mango, Pineapple, Strawberry, Tropical, and Watermelon. Presidential Classic, the house recipe, is also made with flower, distillate, and kief.
Distillate and the other Presidential extracts
Distillate is one of the concentrates in the Presidential catalog. Live resin is the coat that appears across most of the Gold Strain Series, and Rose Gold is the solventless tier built on live rosin. Presidential Moon Pods come in Liquid Diamonds, Live Resin, and Live Rosin families; see What Are Liquid Diamonds and Moon Pods.

Reading a distillate product
When comparing infused products, look at what was infused, how, and with which concentrate: distillate, live resin, or live rosin each brings a different character. THC and cannabinoids are batch-specific, so read the current package label and its test results.
