Cannabis School Presents - SunSoil CBD

Welcome to Cannabis School. I'm your host, Jesse Angelus. And I'm Brandon Elder, and we're here to talk to you about everything pertaining to cannabis from bait flower edibles, strains, and everything in between. So good. Really excited to meet you. Actually no I'm not. I'm. I'm. I'm not joking. I'm telling you man, I have tried just like your 2018 story when you started using it. I'll tell you man.

Like I've tried so many different CBD's out there and this one by far is my favorite is the fastest acting and I had which really cool we is it set up Okay and I got to forget we we get we can't look at the laptop. We got to look at the actual camera or else he's going to be like he's not even looking at us. What a Dick. We decided in our next stages when it gets to eventually we'll put a TV up there.

For now, our laptops down here and the cameras back there that does it. So, so the really cool thing is just recently and and I think this is really cool, it's a testament to sun's oil because we've tried a lot of different CBD oils out there and this one is by far the fastest acting. And what happened was we have this device called the Zenko that was sent to us and you use a vape cart in there and I put in about 1/4 of it not thinking about it and it just fills up

from the vape cart. I drink it down like it it literally, it's like it's weird you. I'm sure you've seen that. And all the sudden I was like, Oh my, I just made a mistake. I just made a huge mistake. I took like 15 hits off of a car all at once. This guy over here, he, he like, has the whole glass, which is close to like 30 to 40 hits. And he's like, Oh yeah, I feel a little little tickle in my throat. Me over here, I feel like I'm on like a roller coaster.

White knuckle in it. But what's so cool? Oh, where's the other? One you had it. Yeah, I know. I brought that one. Now you just used that, I thought. He's over here. Yeah, I got put over there. Oh, awesome. But I'll tell you, we had this right here during the recording. We were recording it and we're just like he's like, do you want to add this out? I'm like, no, let it go. Like this is what we want.

We want to show them if you took too much having a high quality CVD such as Sunsoil, you are absolutely going to have a way better experience. And it was like 40 minutes and I was way. I don't like getting super high at all. I like to feel elevated, but I was on another level of uncomfortable. Holy shit, it hurt. But if it wasn't for this, I would have been in a worse place. And I take it for everything now. And I am not like, it was like, oh, you should take CBD.

I'm like, yeah, I'll forget. I don't forget what this one. He's never been a daily CBD person. Never. Never. That's unbelievable. But I have for like. It's helped me, he's always. Like I've always used it for years now because I'm like the interaction with my body with CBD and THC and other cannabinoids so much better than if I'm just using more like an isolated THC or something.

So yeah, and that's, I mean, this guy, he just, you know, he pops the top and he's just like, well, I guess you guys can use that thing. That's a suggestion. I'll just drink it. But for me, I I I like using that dropper. And it's worked for everything. I use it with my kids. Like my son came in, he's like, I got a bad headache and I'm like, OK, I'm going to give you half a dose. And he's like, oh, it doesn't taste bad. And then he comes back 10 minutes later and he's like. I'm good.

I feel great. I have a headache. Yeah, it's fantastic. I use this after I go to the gym. This is a supplement that I have never. I've never thought I would be using CBD because a lot of times when I would use CBD, I'm like kind of feels good. I guess this is so strong so. I I totally resonate with your story. That is so cool because you're just like this is amazing. This really has changed my life and a lot of people say that. A lot of people go change my life.

This message is brought to you by. Kellogg cereal, right? It's bullshit. It's like it doesn't, it doesn't flow really well. But when you have a product such as this that is that there's so much that has gone into creating this product, right. And you know, I mean, yeah, there are, you know if anybody wasn't really aware of this product they would read through the messaging going, yeah, this is pretty common on a CBD site, but the feel like we just did a review a little while.

Ago, I'll say. Well, actually, let's do it and let's go into that. We should just cut the show right there. I think that's that's great. It's gonna get better. It's gonna get better. We're just love your product so. So maybe we wait. Are you all right? Yeah, I just had to warm up my

vocal cords, you know? No. But the great thing while he's coughing, what was really cool is that in my ear right before you know we we go went and got our medical cards renewed for our state and then we were coming back but before we went we just reviewed a pretty decent sativa that was kind of like a slow onset and I I was pretty

elevated and I took this. One of the cool things that that we kind of found with it is that when you have, if you smoke or consume THC and you get caught in mouth right here baby, this takes away the cotton mouth. Think as soon as I took it, I was like, this is awesome. And then we got in the car, we're driving down and it was gone. Like all the feeling that we had for that last straight was God, it was. Perfect. Time I was like, holy cow, this is nuts.

It just washed it right out. It's cool all. Right. Back to square one. Let's lead him out once you lead us in. All right. So today we actually have Barack joining us today from Sunsoil. It's my gosh, our favorite CBD company as of late. They actually do everything organic from seed to shelf. So many other CBD companies out there, they're getting their products from another provider, they're trusting their Coa's and you never know what product is getting to the actual thing you're doing.

So I love that from start to shelf this is all sun soil and a really cool thing that I've been able to notice about this particular brand and not only just the brand but the quality of their products. We've we've told you guys with they're like this is a great CBD product and you should try it and they are good, they're they're really good. But I will have to say that this all of those have paled in

comparison to this one. That's why we've dedicated an entire show just to this, because of how much is affected myself, how much it's affected Brandon. It's really hard to, when you come across something this awesome, to not want to talk about it all the time. Well, in like my grandma who had had chronic migraines before they started coming back, I gave her the capsules of this and I was just take one a day, see how it works and bam, I didn't have to dose her with any other edible.

I didn't have to make anything else. I just gave her sense oil that way and she's back to not having her migraines. That's amazing. So without further ado brought thank you for being on the show, man. You guys are giving me goosebumps just like, you know, with the intro, that's great, that's great. It's great to be here and I'm, you know, every time it's just awesome to hear people's great experiences with the product. I mean, I completely agree.

It's it's the best thing out there and that's that's why I'm here. So take us through like your story cuz you didn't start growing it, you didn't create the company, no, but here you are. Yeah, you know, it was 20/17/2018 somewhere around there. I was living in New York City at the time, working a super stressful job. And just like, you know, life stuff as as that happens from time to time and you know, was having horrible sleep issues that was just affecting everything.

Mental health, you know, just feeling a lot of stress, anxiety. And you know tried, tried to change the lifestyle trying to do it the healthy way, you know. But you know I also was like, hey I've started to do some research into like what can I, what can I take to just help me feel better. Didn't want to go down the pharmaceutical path and you know take sleep aids and God knows what that we're going to mess with my body and.

It was, someone just told me about CBD and that's that's around the time when just like CBD was like exploding and it was in everything. So decided to do a little research, went deep on to Reddit, you know, just like learning about CBD and like what brands were out there and what how were they making this stuff? And that's actually where I found Sunsoil, which was Green Mountain CBD at the time.

They just had this incredible story, you know, these two guys, Alejandro and Jake, who had, you know, just done every started everything from scratch, you know, everything grown at the farm, extracted at the farm. Really interesting process which I'm sure we'll get into later, which just kind of made sense to me. Even as like a stupid person who would never really like touched, you know, CBD, or like most types of gone into like what kinds of cannabis products were

out there? And the price was great too. So I was like, all right, this seems like a no brainer. I'll try this out. And I was honestly shocked by just like how you know, really similar to to your story. It's just like shocked by how much it helped. Like, you know, I started sleeping, you know, 8 hours through the night, you know, during the day just made me feel so much more less like relaxed and less anxious during the day. It just kind of like gave me. You know, gave me a little bit

of my life back. Not to sound dramatic, but, like, it really did. It really did. And so it was serendipitous. It was not until a couple of years later, randomly got just like a like a recruiter or phone call and he was like, you know, hey, this, you probably never heard of this small business in Vermont. And I don't know what your feelings about cannabis so hard, but I was like. No way. You know, like that's that's that's crazy.

I'm I'm like their biggest fan. I use the product every day. You know went up to Vermont. Got to meet the founders of this company that I've been a customer of you know for for a few years. Just fell in love with the place. And yeah it's kind of been you know all all uphill or downhill from there. You know, joined the company in in 2020, right the week before the pandemic. And it's. Because I've gotten to see the hemp industry like through a really crazy time, but like still here.

And you know, it's really just, it's the customer stories that just, like really keep me coming back. You know, kind of naively I assumed before coming to the company that a lot of customers of Sun Soil would be like myself. You know, just like the ego, right? Like I thought it'd be like.

You know, stressed out millennials, they can't sleep but you know and I come in and my God, like our customers are like from like age like 15 to like to like 90, you know and and most of them are on the older side. You know our our core customer is definitely 60 plus. You know the majority of our customers are 60 plus and just

hearing their stories about. Whether it's pain or, you know, sleep issues or anxiety or, you know, any number of other medical things that folks have found relief from. I mean, just incredible. Just incredible. And and what Sunso is all about in addition to like great products, is making it as affordable and as successful as possible. You know, Alejandro, the founder, kind of the thing that like really like convinced me to join the company, you know, when I was.

Interviewing, he said, you know what, Like I want this to be just like Advil. Yeah, I want this to be like on the shelf at your pharmacy, 5 bucks a bottle, you know, anyone can afford it. And you know, when you have a choice between picking up that bottle of like Aleve, that you're cranking three times a day or your CBD oil, like you actually have a real choice there. And he he was like, you know what, we can do that if we do this all in house, if we do it the right way.

We can, we can make that a reality. And I was just like, yeah, like saying I signed me up. Like that sounds like an amazing vision. Well, and you've already from what I've read, drop pricing about 40% and have another 40% that you're looking to drop probably is scalability and processes and things can change. So, which is incredible, is extremely unique especially within this. So because you know when the Green Rush started hitting all these individuals, like I'm

going to get into CBD. The problem is, is that the consistency of quality across the board is not consistent at all and it's it's really easy. That's why, like, I have never been a big consumer of CBD, because it's like everybody's got CBD. But it's also like a luxury product at the same time. Yeah, like you said, it's not. It's not a comparison of. Hey, I bought this $5 bottle of Advil or Tylenol and this is supposed to last me a month. Well, it's like the other one we work with.

I mean a bottle this size. It wasn't even this size it. Was a one ounce bottle. Yeah, it was one ounce. Bottle 120, Yeah, 120. And they're not even but at the milligrams was only 1200, maybe 1200 milligrams for the entire bottle. I mean, so if you're breaking it down by milligram and the actual value of what the medicine is that they're getting exactly like it's crazy high price and

I'm looking at it like it's. It's like you said, it's something that you if you create a product that anyone can get, it's affordable. Like you said, it's in your pharmacies, It's in everywhere that you go. Well, then it's going to be sun, soil. It's not, hey, it's Tylenol and Advil. The reason why I think so many of the elderly people 60 and older of the market is because they've already gone through all of these other stupid medications.

They've lived through so many medications and they know I hate that. How many of the millennials are still on tons of medications and yet it is like you said, it gave you back some of your life. That's what cannabis has done for me. It's given me a quality of life well and you know, I I used to be on several different medications from anxiety. I'm a diabetic, so I am a type 2 diabetic and trying to find something that will help alleviate the pains that I have from that like neuropathy.

I have a little bit of neuropathy in my feet and typically I would go to an ibuprofen, right? I want I just go to something like that because that's what I've always gone to. But my guts get destroyed now because I I've been off of that off of any pain medications for extremely long period of time. Even if I get injured, I won't take an even if doctors like here you go, you know, talk about drug pushers, right. So it just, you know, they will give that to me. But I I can't take that.

And being able to find something as high quality as this, I, you know, it's really hard. It's really hard because there's so much out there. Who do you trust? When there's a massive difference in quality from one to the next and we found that you know it's a massive difference and you go, hey, I tried this one and either I feel like crap. And maybe their starting product

isn't good. They have something in there their COA isn't actually invicted of what's the end product that's in there, you know or it's not even the right dose or what they're saying is in there is not what's in there. And so you're taking that and this is way better. This is the only company as well. I totally forgot about this. This is the only company that makes a tinsher like I would because every other company does a CO2 extraction and that was what I liked about.

Sunsoil, they're the only company that just does a hemp infusion into like MCT oil, which is exactly how I've made my tinctures for years. And so I know that the experience that I've made has been better. Same with Derek. Anytime you give me a tincture, that's exactly what it's been. And I look at that and I go, well, for standard of what people sell, yeah, the standard has been CO2 extraction, but this is a more whole plant.

You're getting more of the cannabinoids because you're not isolating it and extracting it down to that. Well, it doesn't doesn't to Tesla, it doesn't taste like like him. So that's what's nice about it. Yeah, so I mean, when Broth and I talked last time and I was like, you know, when I first tried it, it I thought it had tasted like feet. And I think it was something with the bottle or whatever, but this is the same bottle I am. Literally, you can see it's almost gone.

I've got that much left, but I use it directly under my tongue. I actually don't mind the flavor now. I don't know if it was just like it was warm, came in the sun or something, like I didn't have that. Experience You didn't with the cinnamon. I love this one. The cinnamon one was, but now the. Peppermint is just like very over peppermint. I taste the peppermint.

I don't taste anything else. That's actually what saved my bacon during an episode where I took way too much and Oh yeah I took I took two full droppers and it got me down. No. It's it's really cool because you know for for our audience you know you've gone into exploring THC and we've always said you know a great thing you always have to have on hand is a good CBD oil and and and I was spoiled at the time because I had what he made and trying all

the CO2 extracted ones. Yeah, they may add some fun flavors into it and all that, but that's us not going to pull me to. Well, in the efficacy. We always talk about as well the entourage effect is a more complete range of cannabinoids. You don't get that in an isolated extracted compound, correct. When you have one that is full plant material, you you have the whole cannabinoid range that is present in that initial plant,

you're not losing those. So it is going to be a much better, whole, fuller experience than any of the other isolated ones. Totally. So yeah, so I mean I mean we're we're going on and on about we're we're we're excited girl. But you know tell us like, yeah, I mean you've been there for a while. The experience today it's still the same but it just seems like you've really bought a a really amazing vision to their company. And I love, I mean I personally as a marketer myself I love the

brand. I like, I like the feel. I love the sense that this is grown with a lot of care as everybody says that it's grown with love. Like, I mean unless you're sitting there sleeping with the giving the kisses every morning you got names for all the plants like that's I would yeah, this is. I mean, I know you would. But Tonya, this is Shaniqua. Well, what? What's it been for you? Like throughout the evolution, it's. I would only assume that you have just fallen more in love

with the brand. Yeah, it's. Been interesting. I I've fallen more in love with the brand but also in some ways is you know gotten a little bit more jaded with the industry and and they're kind of like two sides of the same coin, right. Alejandro and Jake like they they knew what they were getting into. I mean This is why they started the company the way they did. Alejandro was out in Colorado during like the first kind of like green Rush, right? And just saw all of the.

Shortcuts being taken, whether it was like, you know, farming practices or ingredients and then just kind of like the price gouging right on the other end just didn't, didn't make sense. And you know, as I said before, like the the guys, they just started from scratch and they were like, hey okay, you know, why are people using CO2 extraction for CBD?

Oh, it just happens to be the most available like off the shelf thing that you can use because that was developed for like the THC like marijuana industry. And they're like, all right, well that doesn't make sense here. You know what I mean? What does make sense? Let's just, you know, people have been cooking cannabis oil on their stove forever. Like let's just, there's no production scale version of that. We can't buy that off of a website, but let's figure out how to do it.

And that's what they did. And I think the more time I've spent in this industry, the more I just realized how special that kind of mindset is of, you know, how do we do things in the best possible way rather than just like what is the fastest possible route from like here to profit. You know, like especially having to like market this company, the number of websites and ads I see for company that like feature the plant, just like you guys are saying.

But then hey, you know what? That's a public company I can go look at? Like where they're farming. Oh, 80% of their their cannabis comes from third party manufacturers or 100%, but their cannabis comes from overseas in Europe. But like, you look at the websites and it's like happy people buy plants. And it's. Like where is, where is, where is. There's just no shame in the

industry unfortunately. And yeah, I I take a lot of pride in you know really continuing the the sort of like I guess I would say the principles and sort of the standard for quality that these guys have started. And it it starts from just like we we have a philosophy which is like keep things stupid simple like as few ingredients as possible highest quality ingredients. Like if you wouldn't give this to like your mom or your grandmother, like why would you try to sell it to to someone

else? And you know as you guys know like the the plant works really well. So like we don't need to try to like add or subtract things from it. We don't need to like, juice it up with extra, you know, whatever the flavor of the month cannabinoid is like, we're just, you know, that doesn't always serve us in terms of like getting us into like the like Vogue or like we're not like not like a sexy CBD company. You know, we're pretty boring, but that works for us.

You know, we're really just trying to create a quality product at as low a price as possible. And we're really clear in sort of our longer view of what's going to happen in the industry, which is that price is going to come down. You know, it can't just be like, as you said before, like a luxury product, which is what it is like, you know, not to not to hate on her, but like I I point to like these Martha, the Martha Stewart CDD gummies all the

time. It's just like, you know, this can't be like a Martha Stewart Living, like products, you know, that's available to just a percentage of the population. Like it really, it really can be Advil. It really can be Tylenol. Oh yeah, because at the end of the day, it's just a plant. And all you're doing is growing that and there's no need for it to be.

And we've talked about that for so long because our very first CBD sponsor was a a company that was way massively higher priced and we were sitting back talking about it and you're like, no, if we truly care about the audience, what we want is a product that fits with our audience. It's not the highest price because we're not going to tell our parents to go buy that. We're not going to tell our

friends to go buy that. Why did we tell anyone to go buy that if it's not going to be the best product that we can go, hey, this is what you need. Because at the end of the day, it doesn't make sense if they're having to spend $300.00 a month for CBD when they're like, you know, I can go buy aspirin and Tylenol and it's $8 and that'll take care of what I need. Yeah, maybe it's not great on my liver, but I'm not spending $300.00 a month. Like, I don't have that budget.

Where am I going to do that? And you're like, it's great for you though. I mean, that's cool, but how? How is that in my budget? Well, I understand. I mean as far as companies go, most of them are looking at how can I get the most out of every single product I have. Can I lower the cost per unit? Extremely low, have massive, massive profit gains. But there's a trade off with that because they take the shortcuts like you talked about

and they they. Pretty much flat out lie and you bring it up like the Martha Stewart gummies. Like that woman's not growing it. She ain't out there being a part of it. She doesn't understand it. She's like my friend Snoop Dogg and he gave me a joint once and This is why. Yeah, I bet they do. But just great. But you're going to get an inconsistency with the products because those products are made for profit and 100%. Not to say that Sun's Oil isn't trying to make profit,

absolutely are. But. By being able to create a high quality product that is so easy to be able to buy every single month if not stocking it up. Like my mom said that my mom lives out in Massachusetts closer to you guys and she's just like, you know, I wanted to the other sponsors just like I really want to get it but for 2 bottles. And her husband has Crohn's and a bunch of other ailments, because that'd be great, but I'm not spending 120 bucks on a bottle.

And I said no, I totally get it. I said don't. And as we started getting that feedback, we had to drop it because they were just, we can't promote that because it's not medicine anymore. It's it's the same. It's pharmaceutical companies all over again. Yeah, I mean, I get it too. I just even speaking personally, like before I joined the company, I was, yeah, I had a hard time paying even like 40-50 bucks a month for CFC.

That's a lot, you know. Yes, it was like, if I thought about it, it's like, oh man, this is totally changing how I sleep or how I feel like I could rationalize it, but it still felt like a lot of money to pay for a product. Now that I'm at the company, you know, surprise, surprise, I got a little employee discount. That's pretty good. And I take CBD so much more and it it really showed me that like, wow, like there's like a whole new level of benefit that

I've unlocked. You know, just like my body feels the best it's felt in years. I'm, you know, sleeping even better than I was when I was kind of like rationing out, you know, my servings, right. And like, I was just like, man, I wish every, like a different way of putting it is I wish everyone had my employee discount, you know, and they were able to get this stuff that, you know, you have 5060% cheaper.

That's where we're headed. And I think once you can be less precious about it and you're you're not like thinking like, Oh my gosh, this serving is going to cost me a dollar $2.00. Like, is that worth it? To have that pain in my knee or to have a good night's sleep tonight like? But at the same time you feel like you. You think about that if you're using CBD. Regularly. You're probably not seeing your doctor as much. How much is your doctor's visit?

Is that $20 or is that $100? Okay, How much does that break into that? How long, How many bottles can you buy for that? Plus, you're not buying the pain meds that you're having to use, or the other meds for sleep or stress or that. So might be, you know, a dollar a day or whatever, but or $2.00 a day? I don't know. But you look at that breakdown. You're like, is the quality of life better?

Is your like, is the cost the same or is it actually less than what you pay with your normal medical stuff? Yeah. And that's that's why the companies do what they do. I mean I I have to give it to them because of they're trying to make as much money as possible. I mean that's that's why we started business. You're trying to be able to grow it to that point. But even then though, after a certain point, especially where you see so much.

Probably the best way to say it just fuckery that happens within the cannabis industry. It really hurts the end user because of the profits, because they're now. I can't drop my prices because I'm not comparable to XYZ Company. But if the prices keep going up, especially now and in The Economic Times we have it, it should be where you're not weighing it out going, you know, is the pain bad today as it was yesterday? Yeah, I'll save it. And and I get where you're

coming. I mean, I just took some right now because I purposely took enough of this. And I know it's a stronger strain for me. And I was getting pretty foggy there, but it was so crazy because when I put it under there, I literally felt like this weird cooling effect, like it's draining out of my body. Oh yeah, so crazy. It's really interesting. Yeah, it was like the. Was it the CBD that I did that

one time? And I Where was it HHC that it felt like a balloon popped and then almost everything just instantly drank out of my. I was like, that's the weirdest sensation I think I've ever had. So you guys have it in teen cheer. And the coolest thing I saw you guys do it in capsules too. So when you're talking about want to be Advil, that's the first thing. I thought when I saw him I was like, these are awesome. Well, that's what I give to my grandma too, because it's like.

And and for me, initially it was like when I told you I said, oh, this one tasted like feet and I was like, well, I'll have you try it and tell me your thoughts. We love this. This has been hands down the best CBD that we've got from any, any company. Yeah, this is truly remarkable. Truly remarkable. And price point like even their 1200 milligram is only around $55 for a bottle. That's pretty good.

And so you're getting the the 2400 milligram extra strength one and you're at $90.00 a bottle. But even if you're only doing half a dose, like that's still? Having both of them though, I feel is really good because one of them is just like, you know, is it a headache or is do I feel like my knee is about to just give out, right.

So being able to switch back and forth, you take less with that one and this one is more of your prophylactic, like taking this thing for our cannabis consumering audience. We've always thought like if if you're new into this one, it's kind of good to just take like half a dose. Right before your session and then go into it. You're you're not going to experience those extreme? It'll help keep those peaks being so.

High, Yeah, it'll keep it level so you can experience it, but also having just, it just protects you on that one. Plus, you know, if you're getting caught in mouth, that's going to cut it out, which is super crazy. I've never, ever thought of that. Yeah, we've never tried it for that. So I just thought last episode I was like, what's badass?

That was fantastic. So aside from you like slashing pricing, what else, what cool things on the horizon are coming for sun soil that you can talk about, You know that I can talk about, yeah. Well one thing that we were really resistant to doing for a long time, but you know our customers kind of pulled it out of us eventually or gummies. So we just came out with our first line of gummies and pretty

happy with them. But I can talk talk to some some interesting stuff we're doing with our version two of those. But you know gummies have just taking over supplements in general. Like regardless of what it is like, you know you walk down the aisle of a, you know your coop or your supplement store and it's just like all gummies and that's the crazy. That's the craziest thing to me that we choose to take our medicine in this kind of like in

America as like as candy. But that's what's happening, you know, and. Americans are odd. Yeah, I mean that's that was really the, the main sticking point is we, we saw ourselves as, you know, like a company that makes medicine and why should we put sugar in medicine. And there's a big sticking point for a really long time. But you know, our customers were buying those products anyway.

You know, a lot of folks, even my parents, like, you know, they're hesitant for whatever reason is in their brain to to take the tincture. It just kind of feels like really like weedy and there's like a stigma to it. But it got me like, okay. Yeah, I'll I'll try that. You know, I think it it it has this appeal to folks who just like you know aren't in in that world. So our gummy is certified organic.

There's very few if if there's probably like a handful of certified organic CBD gummies out there and we tried to make it as low sugar as possible. Yeah. It's like 1/2 or 1/4 of what all the other gummies on the market

are. Yeah, Yeah. So just 2 grams of sugar in a 20 milligram CBD gummy, which is, you know, just a fraction And. And we also made it, you know, most gummies out there are also made with isolate, so like a CBD isolate and that helps you flavor and get all the like you know, sour Raspberry kind of stuff in there. Whereas ours, you know the exact oil that you're getting in the tinctures and the gummies as well. And that has some pluses and minuses to it.

The gummies definitely tastes pretty grassy. I would say if I'm being, if I'm being kind, but it was, it was huge you know for us. We've gotten some mixed, mixed reviews on. This. Do you have a favorite flavor? I like that Berry one. I'm a fan of the cinnamon like cuz I love that cinnamon tincture as well and the cinnamon gummy tastes a lot. Have you tried one of these yet? All right.

Yeah. I'd be curious to hear what you think, But So what we've actually done with our, our new version of these gummies is we've completely changed our extraction process to make it work at room temperature rather than to do like a heated, A heated infusion. And what that has done is it just pulls out fewer of sort of like the bitter elements from the plant, kind of like that the chlorophyll and other things in the plant that get it that

better nest. And so it's completely changed, you know, the taste of the gummy without changing the cannabinoid profile, which is incredible. So it's been a huge breakthrough for us and I'm really excited to see those new gummies come out. That sounds fantastic, yeah. So what I really like about it is that even though it's, it's a gummy form and that and I agree.

I think a lot of it. The gummy is the kid inside of us. Like, you know, I don't want to take the medicine, but if it wasn't a gummy, I'll. Take those Flintstone candies. That's cool, right? Right. And it's so funny like we're too serious as as an American culture, we're just like, we have to find our, like, even our medicine has to be appealing. We can't take the like if that's not blueberry Raspberry lemonade flavor, take it away like no this, this tastes.

Like, I mean it's it's tasty, I like the Berry taste, but I like it that it still tastes like cannabis because you don't want somebody to sit there just pounding these. Eating the whole thing because. They're gonna get diarrhea real quick, I mean. Like you said, it's medicine. You don't take the whole bottle of that. You just take the. Whole thing of gummies. And even though I took a dropper of that took that, it's actually just. And I love how fast it gets.

I mean it really is fast. The onset. Yeah. It you know some people love them. I actually love the gummies because I I'm, I'm with you guys. Like I like when my medicine tastes real. You know what I mean? You can you're like, oh there's there's something in there that that must be working kind of thing. But you know it's it's kind of a different customer. It's a different cannabis

customer. They're, they're less of the purists, you know, You know, if you're willing to sort of eat something with a little bit of sugar in it and whatnot, we want something that tastes a little better. So we heard that. And I'm just, I'm just super stoked for that because, you know, we are. We otherwise like to stick to the basics, right? And it's really just about like organic, high quality and like let's just keep pushing on costs.

Like let's just be, you know, as relentless as possible on that so that we can serve more people. But the Gummies is our first kind of foray into getting a bit more creative and it's it's been fun. I know the guys is like had a really nice time being like how do we reengineer this whole thing again to make it work for this this new type of customer. Yeah, it's awesome. This is so good. I I want to ask you what have

you seen? Just like you talked about your parents and how they're a little bit more apprehensive for it, but. The gummies have worked out. What's been their experience so far using your guys's products. Yeah, I mean it's my, you know, I've worked for the company for several years now and my parents has been very hesitant to to try the products out. They don't want to get addicted

to grass, as they say. But, you know, my mom has an arthritic knee and she, she, you know, to her credit, she refuses to take anything for it. She's just kind of like, you know, grinning and burying it. And she started taking our CBD for a month. And I just, I just checked in with her for a little while, a little while ago. And you know, she's completely pain free in the knee. She's going on two walks a day. She feels good. And I was just like that's I was like, that's incredible.

And she was like, yeah, and you know what? I I knew it was the CBD because when I stopped taking it for a few days, the pain came back. Like pain came right back. I was like, well, that's that's great, that's cool. My my dad's been a bit more, you know, like quietly accepting of it. The last time I was home, I actually saw a tincture on his bedside table after, you know, after after he had been refusing to try it. So we just kind of, like stayed quiet, you know, I'm not going

to mention this one. I'm just going to let him take this in private. But I know he has sleep issues, so. So it looks like he's been taking the tincture to help with that. That's huge. I know my parents are very we're very conservative people and kind of the same thing if like. My parents have pain and they've never taken anything for it. My dad's had, he just had nine discs replaced fused in his back

last year. But he's had that bad back for 30 plus years and he's never taken any sort of medication for it. And it's just something that I've seen always. And now I'm like, it's been a huge, like, I don't know, feel like a big pat on the back. That I've gotten both of my parents to actually take it because it's something that they realize, hey, I don't feel addicted to it. I'm not feeling high, I'm not feeling whatever. I'm just not hurting as much.

I'm able to function better, you know, I can sleep. My dad was like, hey, I slept for 8 hours. I haven't slept for more than like 45 minutes in a month because of this pain. And all of a sudden he's got a full night's sleep. That was massive. That's huge. Life changing, right? Yeah. Well, and even on this side, like, you know, like our audience and our well, like me, because you have an extremely high tolerance to THC.

But I do not. And sometimes I I'll try a new strain as what we do here and I'll take a little too much because I get a little too big in my britches. I'm like I can do a little bit more, I'm fine and. But you never know until it settles in. Exactly. And it's there. It's just like and so many of our audience are like, what happens when you take too much? Like what do you do? Or I'll get a phone call from a friend.

I just had it just a few days ago, and he lives several cities away and I'm like, well, did you can come over here and you can try some of it. And he goes, oh, I can pick it up. How much hope for you? And I'm like, no, no, no, you don't understand. This is mine. I'll just give your girlfriend a dropper of it and that's it. And then I'll give you the site that you go to because I know it's going to change your whole mind. Yeah. Like, no, dude. I mean, don't Lego my Eggo,

right? Because it's just like it is. It really was. It's like this great thing that all of our our audience, at least I feel, I believe they should be, this should be in their cabinet, this should be right alongside their bed, because I know that they've got pain. I know that they've got issues with that. I know we got a lot.

I mean, where you're talking about the same age rage is very identical to ours, slightly younger, where we have a lot of people who are a little bit more open to it, which is really funny because I thought like, oh, it's just millennials that love this, but. They're just like, meh, meh, sure. But if you consume cannabis the way that Brandon and I do, this is something that definitely needs to be with you. Like how awesome it were.

I've had a just one dropper, a gummy, and I could try another strain right now and totally be fine because I don't feel anything anymore. And it's fantastic, really awesome to be able to say because I know there's people out there. My wife included him. Sometimes. It just makes her feel panicky. And I said, you know, just use this. And she says no, I've used other ones before. It didn't work. And I said trust me, this one's way better. And she did.

She felt that within minutes she was like, wow, that really helped. So it's so cool that it serves so many purposes. And it is literally it's like. This would have been considered snake oil back in the day because if people wouldn't believed it. I mean some guy over there selling laudlin going come on over we'll get you one of these models today but is this is. It's. Like Windex? Here's everything. Yeah, it really is. It's like Robitussin for people, you know, more in the 80s and

90s. Just take Robitussin. But this is, I mean, the fact that, you know, when I pulled it out and it looked just like what Brandy would make I like, OK. That's totally different because everything else is like a golden color and purified. Because people feel like if it's clear, it's good. It's good for me. But you want that. You want that straight, Well, plant. And as long as it's been grown, yeah, And checked this, that's exactly what it is. It's amazing, yeah. Totally.

Have you broken into any other cannabinoids as just personally myself, I mean this is kind of all all I'm all I'm using now. You know, I I used to do things that were a little bit more maybe in like the Onetoone kind of range. But I find that I find that this just works for me and kind of like for for what I need it for, which is like sleep and you know, kind of just like using the tincture throughout the day. Just got, you know, I've got a couple of these right at my desk

here. It's just great. I can be productive. It just makes me go great throughout the day. Honestly. Yeah. Well, sounds like you have intentional use design for what you need. Yeah?
