Shatter is just one form of dabs, of all the concentrates, its the most potent. Shatter is a commonly-used term to refer to the type of concentrate. It typically looks like honey with varying degrees of transparency and color profiles. When this type of concentrate is warm, it has a consistency actually quite similar to very thick honey. When it’s cold, its consistency is more similar to glass. It shatters just like glass does if it is dropped or tapped, hence the term “shatter”
