Find Your Zen

As of this year, cannabis companies are popping up all over the world! Countries like Switzerland and Mexico have created new laws making cannabis legal and there are many countries looking to do the same.

Something cool about the world now is that about five countries have legalized cannabis completely, more than 30 are legalized medically, and we still have quite a few countries to go until it is a worldwide regulation. That is the type of future I want to see! Due to all this change, there are a lot of cannabis companies, like a lot of them. They can be recreational, medical, or both, hemp only, CBD only, and a mix of all of them.

Not all cannabis companies are created equal, however. One company that could be listed among some of the best cannabis companies would be Zen Cannabis.

Zen Cannabis is an Oklahoma based cannabis company that focuses more on edibles and tinctures than flower products. Oklahoma has officially been in the cannabis business since October 2018, that nearly three years. Over that time, the state has made over “$109,263,635 since 2019, with $137,805,571 in state and local sales tax, ” according to Tulsa World and it is still growing! In fact, the United States cannabis community has accumulated over “$28,861,478 from January through May 2021. ” (It’s pretty impressive considering all the awful things that happened last year that have trickled into this year.)

Additionally, Tulsa World reported,

The Zen Cannabis company “makes a variety of products and potencies for any mindful cannabis lover looking to find their zen. Specializing in infused edibles and drinks, our delicious hand-crafted treats and drinks will help relax and revitalize your entire being while fitting your unique lifestyle.” The company offers a large line of infused edibles that have a vast range of styles. The ratios of CBD and THC in the edibles help customers find exactly what they need to treat themselves to the perfect zen experience both medically and recreationally. Zen Cannabis offers a lot of different varieties of gummies, tinctures, and milk chocolate bars. The products can be whatever the user needs: rejuvenating satiating or uplifting experience in every bite or sip.

Being able to be consistent with their products, the idea of having a reliable source of medication is more needed than recreational cannabis users may think. Many medical cannabis patients truly rely on consistency from cannabis brands and unfortunately there are many companies that cannot provide that.

Before we dive into the products that Zen Cannabis provides, I think understanding more about “ zen ” is needed. Merriam Webster defines zen in two ways, one of them is, “ a Japanese sect of Mahayana Buddhism that aims at enlightenment by direct intuition through meditation, ” and the other is “ a state of calm attentiveness in which one's actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort. ” When Zen Cannabis uses it they seem to be using the second definition. On their website, the very first sentence that you see is “Zen Cannabis will help you find peace and relaxation. Committed to the highest quality and consistency, Zen Cannabis’ wide range of products has something for every taste and every need." Zen Cannabis wants its customers to find the zen that is inside them. WIth their products, it is much easier to attain that state of mind than without it!

As the Zen Cannabis company grows their menu only gets more interesting. Most cannabis companies will only have an assorted pack of gummies that are Hybrid but Zen Cannabis stepped up the game with more than 10 flavors. With this many flavors already in their lineup, I can only imagine what else they have up their sleeves... maybe they’ll go for guava or lemon next! For now, let’s get a closer look at their yummy edibles:

The gummies have a lot of flavors and are either in 50-milligram doses or come in Extra Strength doses which are 150 milligrams. The flavors are Fruit Punch (comes in Indica, Sativa, and Extra Strength Hybrid), Dark Berry (Extra Strength Indica), Mango (Extra Strength Sativa), Green Apple (Extra Strength Sativa), Black Cherry (Extra Strength Indica), Strawberry (Extra Strength Hybrid), Orange (CBD: THC 10:1, 50 milligrams CBD and 5 milligrams THC), Grape (The NiteNite gummy. CBD: THC 4:1 with 5 milligrams of Melatonin), Pineapple (Hybrid), Cherry (CBD: THC 1:1), and Watermelon (Hybrid). Something else that makes this company stand out is that all their gummies are gluten-free and fat-free. The gummies also have the word “ zen ” on them as well as the warning for THC. The thick circular shape of the gummies also makes them easier to cut in half if the customer wants less than the total THC.

The Zen Cannabis chocolate bar is at the moment only dosed at 1,000 milligrams of some Hybrid THC. They describe it as “ a classically sweet and creamy milk chocolate bar that will melt your worries away while it melts in your mouth. ” What’s really neat about the chocolate bar ’s design is that on the bar itself you can see the word “ zen ” pressed into it. It’s a super innovative idea that makes the bar fun to eat on top of it being delicious and smooth. With how delicious the milk chocolate is, the flavor options they have for new bars are too vast to even go through. (But I do hope there will be a white chocolate bar in the future! Yum!) Quick side note: From the About page on their website it seems like there may be some cookies on the way!

I can only imagine the flavor possibilities. They could do the classic chocolate chip, ginger bread, sugar, oatmeal, or even something wild like raspberry cheesecake! Whatever they end up going with, I’ m sure it will be really tasty and consistent for the customers. The only question is will they do a pack of cookies or just one big cookie? Either one, I’ m sure will be yummy!

Zen Cannabis’ tinctures are just as potent and tasty as their edibles. It is not often that you see well flavored tinctures, most that are on the market are unflavored and meant to go underneath the tongue so the user doesn ’t have to taste the pure marijuana flavor engulfing their mouths.

But it is in human nature to want to taste something good rather than something gross so Zen made the tinctures and drinks with real flavors. Zen Cannabis’ tinctures are flavored and each one is designed for the different needs of their many customers:

The drinks are different from the tinctures as they seem to take after the look of something like 5 Hour Energy. The drinks are flavored in Berry or Grape. The Berry drinks are available in 50 milligram doses of Indica or Sativa. They are described as “A two-ounce burst of delectably sweet berry flavor to make your aches and pains melt away without dragging you down

This sativa drink will invigorate your taste buds and keep you relaxed and pain-free without putting you to sleep. ” The Indica is also two ounces but they say it is a “burst of delicious sweet berry flavor to melt your aches and pains away and help you relax. This indica drink will quell any aches or pains and help you unwind and find your zen. ” For these drinks you can drink them straight or they can be mixed into bigger drinks like a soda or a cup of juice.

As for the tinctures they recently came out with a 500 milligram THC: CBD 10:1 Hybrid in their Fresh Mint flavor, the customers asked and Zen Cannabis listened.

Their other tinctures are two THC:CBD 4:1 tinctures in either Indica or Sativa, both are flavored with Fresh Mint. The Indica is for relaxation and relief while the Sativa is meant to rejuvenate the user. The last tincture on the list is the CBD:THC 4:1. This tincture is described as “bursting with fresh mint flavor.

Zen Cannabis CBD tincture provides relief to your body and mind. This CBDheavy tincture will keep you alert, relaxed and in control. ” This is for those who need more CBD than they do THC.
