Quick Answer: Choosing the right disposable vape depends on your style, flavor preference, and experience. We carry a wide variety of popular products and brands to choose from. Want a smooth, no-fuss hit? Or a rich, strain-specific flavor? We’ve got just what you’re looking for at Hashtag Redmond.
Convenient, compact, and ready whenever you are.
Disposable vapes are one of the easiest and most popular ways to consume cannabis. They’re discreet, pre-charged, and pre-filled—no buttons, no fuss.
But with so many brands and varieties to choose from the options can make your head spin!
So how should you choose the vape that’s best for you? What should you know about the different types of vapes to make an informed decision?
Each vape type offers a different cannabis experience. So let’s examine three of the most popular types of vapes you’ll find at Hashtag Redmond: Distillate, Full-spectrum and Live Resin.

What are Distillate Vapes?
Distillate vapes contain highly refined cannabis oil—often up to 90%+ THC—with most other plant compounds removed. Brands typically reintroduce terpenes (either botanical or cannabis-derived) for flavor.
Why we love them:
Consistent Potency: Smooth and strong, every puff delivers a predictable high.
Flavor Variety: Terpenes can be blended in countless combinations (think: Blueberry Muffin, Tropic Thunder).
Beginner-Friendly: No intense aroma or heavy body feel—great for casual or first-time users.
Who they’re best for:
Those who want a dependable, discreet experience without the wild card of full-spectrum effects.

What are Full Spectrum Vapes?
Full-spectrum vapes retain a wide range of cannabinoids (like THC, CBD, CBG) and native terpenes from the original plant. The goal? Mimic the full effect of the flower, not just isolate THC.
Why we love them:
Balanced Effects: Thanks to the “entourage effect,” cannabinoids and terpenes work synergistically for a richer experience.
Strain Accuracy: You actually feel the difference between an indica, sativa, or hybrid.
Medicinal Potential: More cannabinoids = more nuanced support for wellness goals like pain relief or sleep.
Who they’re best for:
Anyone seeking a deeper, more nuanced high—or those who love how a specific strain makes them feel.

What are Live Resin Vapes?
Live resin is made by flash-freezing cannabis flower immediately after harvest. It’s then extracted to preserve the original terpene profile and cannabinoids. The result? One of the most flavorful vape options on the market.
Why we love them:
Big Flavor: Preserved terpenes bring out the boldest taste and aroma of any vape type.
Authentic Experience: Feels like the flower—complex, heady, and true to strain.
High Terpene Content: Perfect for flavor-chasers and seasoned smokers who love depth.
Who they’re best for:
Experienced users who love flavor, or anyone who wants that fresh flower feel in vapor form.
