A nectar collector is a slim, handheld vaporizer—often called a dab straw or honey straw—that lets you enjoy CBD concentrates one small hit at a time. Instead of loading a bowl or a full rig, you heat the tip, touch it to your CBD wax, shatter, or distillate, and inhale through the mouthpiece as the concentrate melts into vapor. It is the simplest way to try CBD dabs without committing to a large glass setup.

Materials and Specs
Most nectar collectors run 5 to 7 inches long and break down into a tip, a body or stem, and a mouthpiece. Glass models are the most popular because they are inert, easy to see through, and simple to replace; quartz and ceramic tips hold heat longer and tend to preserve flavor, while titanium tips are the most durable and forgiving for beginners. Tip diameter matters too: a wider opening handles thicker waxes and crumbles, while a narrower one works better with runny distillate. Electric versions swap the torch for a rechargeable battery and coil, usually with a few heat settings.

Shipping and Returns
Orders ship in discreet, plain packaging, and in-stock items typically leave the warehouse within one to two business days. You can track your parcel from the moment it leaves. If a collector arrives cracked, or if it simply is not the right fit, our return window covers unused items in original packaging—just contact support and we will walk you through the exchange.
Do you need a torch to use one?
Only for glass and quartz models, where you heat the tip for a few seconds before each hit. Electric nectar collectors have a built-in coil and need nothing but a charge.
Can you use a nectar collector with CBD?
Yes. CBD wax, shatter, crumble, and distillate all work, and because each touch is a small dose, it is an easy way to find your preferred amount.
How often should you clean it?
Wipe or soak the tip after every few sessions. A clean tip keeps flavor true and stops leftover residue from clogging the airway.
