That’s where our hungry bee, the Nectar Collector, arrives to introduce us to a new world of easy dabbing bliss that eliminates the middleman to give you a real sting of a hit.

But what exactly is all the buzz about nectar collectors you may ask? Continue reading to learn what these potent devices are, how they function, and what some great options are for you to dive into the world of nectar collecting right now! 

What in the World is a Nectar Collector?

If traditional dab rigs were lets say, a .22 rifle for shooting cans, then the nectar collector is the double barrel shotgun for blasting demons in the face. These open barrel straight shooters hover above your waxy materials and suck up all the precious concentrate vapor, just like a UFO abducting loggers on their way home from work.

Essentially nectar collectors are straight glass tubes with a variety of accessories that allow you to heat the straw end before gently placing it above your concentrates to inhale as much as you can handle. The sky really is the limit with the level of clouds you blow from a nectar collector as there’s no loading necessary; you just dab straight from the glass container. The open tube design of nectar collectors allows for much larger hits than a traditional rig, you simply keep dabbing as long as your straw is hot enough.

While there is a ton of variance in overall nectar collecting design the uniting factor lies in their straight tube method of providing dab hits. With no barriers between you and your wax, the nectar collector offers the most pure way to enjoy your concentrates. As a whole Nectar Collectors offer a more affordable method to get into dabbing, as they are much smaller than the average rig. Additionally these pieces are typically hand held in design, so safely transporting them along your travels is dead easy.

Embrace Tradition with Glass Nectar Collectors

Glass nectar collectors that require a heating element or torch to operate are what we refer to as the classic design. They are the OG’s of the nectar collecting game and offer the benefits of analog dabbing, all within their compact glass bodies. Here are three great options to start your nectar collecting journey the old school way.
