46.02MG THC PER PACKAGE | ELBESEDIBLES.COM @ELBESEDIBLES REVIEW BY RYAN HERRON @THELOUD100 PRUF SOLVENTLESS HASH ROSIN GUMMIES “RESTFUL SLEEP” WILDBERRY TEA 1:1
From the alluring scent to easy-to-eat consistency, the Pruf “Restful Sleep” wildberry tea gummies capture what it would be like to have a sleepy-time tea in gummy form. Opening the biodegradable packaging, I felt like I walked into the most calming berry-scented perfume department. The vegan ingredients help make each square gummy go down easy, without the tough or chewy consistency. Once the berries were done hugging my tastebuds, my tongue was met with a calming, deep, earthy, tea flavor that lingered. Around an hour later, I felt the gummies softly rocking my body back and forth to a blissful state.

MELLOW VIBES KETTLE CORN
Each popcorn kernel feels like a crunchy cloud in my mouth that dissolves into a mellow caramel profile. With little to no taste of Cannabis, I almost forgot it was infused! After eating the entire bag in one sitting, it was no surprise that I was met with feelings of giggles and a notable body high. The flavor, consistency and effect all make this edible great for anyone wanting to turn a movie night or laid-back hangout into something simultaneously silly
and relaxing. 105.46MG THC PER PACKAGE MELLOWVIBES.COM @MELLOWVIBESBRAND REVIEW BY CORTNEY “BUBBLES” DONACA @CALLOFBOOTYJUDY PHOTO BY AMANDA DAY @TERPODACTYL_MEDIA
VIVA THCV CANNABIS GUMMY
Viva produces flower high in THCV, the appetite-depressing cannabinoid known to be uplifting and psychoactive. Concentrated by Mule Extracts, this flower goes into effect-forward edibles and vapes that are no slouch in the looks, taste or dosage departments. We tried the 1:1 THC and THCV variety, but these invigorating gummies are available in a ton of flavors and cannabinoid combinations, so finding
your favorite is half the fun. 46.6MG THC/PACKAGE | 31.4MG THCV/PACKAGE | THCVIVA.COM @VIVATHCV REVIEW BY RYAN HERRON @THELOUD100 | PHOTO BY AMANDA DAY @TERPODACTYL_MEDIA

BOTZ BY GREEN STATE OF MIND SOUR APPLE FULL SPECTRUM GUMMY
The emerald green, sugar-coated Sour Apple Botz gummy from Green State of Mind instantly had my attention. The full-spectrum, fast-acting gummy was scored into 10 sections (about the size of a pencil eraser) containing roughly 10mg of THC each. I tore off one of the sections with my hands and popped it into my mouth, and my taste buds were instantly hit with sweet and sour apples and Cannabis extract. The gummy was soft and flavorful with a kick of sourness. I don’t get sour edibles very often and this was a fun experience!

GRÖN PIPS 1:1 DARK CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER TREATS
These binge-able chocolate treats feature a burst of peanut butter in the center and a pleasing, candy-coated crunch. They’re reminiscent of an M&M, but unquestionably more fun when you factor in the 1:1 ratio of THC and CBD delicately disguised in Grön’s smooth, Fair Trade chocolate. Each bag is broken into 20 pieces, with each piece measuring roughly 10mg of cannabinoids. While this sounds simple to dose, if you’re like us, you’ll find yourself a handful of Pips deep before remembering that these sly, snackable little sweets are packing a punch.

CROP CIRCLE CHOCOLATES VANILLA HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
Delightfully adorned with a sprinkling of hazelnuts, these Rosin Truffles from Crop Circle Chocolate ensnare your taste buds in a dance of flavor. The fruit-forward notes from Ananda Farms’ Tally Mon rosin extracted by BNK Solventless pair ever so eloquently with the deep notes of the Fair Trade, organic dark chocolate brought to us by Crop Circle. The first bite was bliss. Velvety smooth hazelnut ganache delicately blanketed in an outer shell of dark chocolate decadence. Tally Mon is known for its *ahem* exciting effects, and the whole experience was pleasurable for my flavor (and endocannabinoid) receptors. 93.2MG THC PER BOX

SMOKIEZ EDIBLES GREEN APPLE CBG CALM FRUIT CHEWS
If Snow White had these Green Apple gummies she might have been able to tolerate her seven dwarves instead of trusting that evil witch. As a parent, these gummies are a lifesaver – with CBG acting as a mood stabilizer and relaxer that melts stress and puts a smile on your face. Munching on a delicious chewy bite tastes exactly like a Granny Smith apple, with a perfect blend of sweet and tart, and a lovely blend of THC and CBG to help you survive – or thrive through your next work day or grand adventure.

Alibi Cannabis and Astral Treats have teamed up to bring us a Kush Mints-specific surprise. It’s a tangy little treat that offers an easy-to-peel (and particularly cute) star gummy with a gooey, fruity feel. For this picky palate, there’s a nearly-unnoticeable extract flavor that goes down smoothly with heavy hints of huckleberry that hang around on the tongue for just long enough to make you want more. Overall, this gummy offers a fun experience – from the packaging to the pull-apart-dosing. 101.38MG THC PER PACKAGE
