English Breakfast Tea
by CBD Embrace
By Phoebe Fuller
16mg CBD per teabag
On an average day in the offi ce I
probably get through around seven
cups of tea. Yes, seven. So it was only
fi tting that I jumped at the chance to drink
MORE of the stuff. Getting paid to drink tea? Yeah,
my job’s a pretty good gig. This full spectrum tea
from CBD embrace is vegan, gluten free and THC
free with 16mg of CBD per bag. I added a splash of
milk to mine, as CBD is fat-soluble and so I wanted to
increase the absorption but, also, because I’ve always
been a tea-with-milk kind of gal. Once brewed, it
smells very strongly of hemp so maybe warn your
boss if you get around to ever sipping on this in the
offi ce. The taste isn’t quite as strong as the smell
would suggest though and, otherwise, it just tastes
like normal tea, which is positive as many hemp-based
food items aren’t the most tolerable. I found that it
required a longer brew-time than normal tea when
adding milk, because it otherwise became an anaemic,
green coloured concoction that really didn’t look too
appetising; so make sure you keep the bag in for around
fi ve minutes to steep. While I won’t be throwing out my
PG Tips just yet, I think I’d happily keep this in my desk
drawer for those days where I need a little calming to
take the edge off a stressful day.
Full Spectrum Gummies
by GRN
By Gordon Stribling
8 x 25mg of hemp extract
Gummies are a great way to get CBD on-the-go.
However, there are so many varieties out there, so I
was intrigued to fi nd out how GRN stacked up.
These certainly stand out on aroma and fl avor.
Perhaps it’s the blend of natural and artifi cial
fl avorings, but there’s a truly unique bouquet when
you open the packet, with each distinct fl avor
combining with the spicy CBD aftertaste from the
fi rst bite.
GRN gummies are really a broad-spectrum product
as they are THC-free, which will appeal to those who
are unable or unwilling to consume even traces of
THC.
