WANA STRAWBERRY LEMONADE 1:1 HYBRID
Making a splash with their new packaging redesign, Wana’s sour gummies are a must try. These strawberry lemonade 1:1 hybrid sour gummies taste fantastic, with a flavor not too sweet or too overpoweringly sour. This particular batch was made with full spectrum CO2 distillate from SugarTree Farms, and provided an upbeat and soothing effect. I wasn’t too in my head, and got a nice buzz in my body. Aside from being made with organic ingredients, they are also made with pectin – making them vegan friendly! Expanding on their 1:1 sour gummies line-up, Wana also offers indica, sativa and 2:1 gummies in the just as enticing flavors of raspberry limeade, pomegranate blueberry and exotic yuzu. While dedicated to Oregon’s market, it is important to keep in mind that Wana is a national brand and as legalization continues to push forward, you can expect to have access to the Wana gummies all across the country! @WANABRANDS
GRÖN RASPBERRY PEARLS 1:1
I was extremely pleased to be able to check out Grön’s sugar-coated Pearls. Each little Pearl had just the right texture, right in between chewy and tender. These Pearls also start off with a blast of tartness, then fade into sweet. It’s more or less a combination of the best of both worlds regarding taste and texture. Being that this is their Relax offering, the gummies brought on a calming sense of mind and warm body high. They were a perfect post-dinner treat to wind down the day in front of the TV. Grön’s Pearls line has numerous different flavors and cannabinoid combinations. If you are looking for more than just CBD, ask your local budtender for their 1:1:1 blackberry lemonade THC/CBD/CBN Harmony Pearls. Due to the CBN, these are particularly effective for those with sleeping problems. Aside from their Pearls, Grön also makes infused artisanal chocolates and candy covered chocolate bites called Pips! Overall, Grön has been a staple in the Oregon market for years and continues to uphold their high standards of quality products to this day.

MULE EXTRACTS 1:1 MULE KICKER MOUNTAIN BERRY
1 : 1 G UMMIES
AS OUR INDUSTRY continues to evolve, we learn more and more about the different cannabinoids in Cannabis and their effects. Arguably the most known cannabinoid, aside from THC, is CBD – and when you start getting these (and other) cannabinoids working together, you have the entourage effect. This is an understanding that other cannabinoids, like CBD, are more effective when including THC. Let’s take a look at different ratio gummies and put this idea to the test...

Mule Extract’s Mule Kickers have been dominating the edible market, so I was stoked to see that they offer a 1:1 full spectrum Mountain Berry Kicker. Made with gelatin, the gummy is very chewy and delicious. I split it into two pieces and was delighted with the sweet berry flavor! My body felt a vibe when it started to kick in. I wasn’t necessarily tired, however, I did notice that this high came on a bit stronger than just a traditional Kicker without CBD. I was upbeat, but mellow. Beware of laughing fits. Mule Extracts is, at its heart, a conscious Cannabis processor. Their aim is to provide consumers products with quality inputs, including high grade oil. This method is achieved by using supercritical and subcritical CO2 extraction, then winterization – which preserves the most natural flavor profile of the plant. If you’re interested in more products from Mule Extracts, they also offer infused joints, infused syrups, vape carts and most recently, CBN infused gummies. Take the high road, take Mule Extracts! @TAKE_THEHIGHROAD
