A Certificate of Analysis, or COA, is a document provided by a third party that analyzes the compounds found in cannabis. The COA outlines the strain’s cannabinoid and terpene profiles, as well as tests for pesticide residue or heavy metals. There is also information included on the product’s manufacturer, testing method used, and batch data. Not all manufacturers are required to provide a COA.
