Good Tide Cannabis Infused Gummies Review

Reply

Good Tide Cannabis Infused Gummies line of edibles come in three different flavor and effect combinations, Uplifting Pineapple, Balanced Guava and Mango Mellow. These are some of the best tasting gummies we’ve tried.

Each gummy has 10mg of THC per serving, for a total of 100mg THC per package. These gummies are formulated with botanical terpenes to help create more specific effects. They use solventless hash rosin to infuse the properties of specific strains. The Sativa we tried was made with Super Lemon Haze rosin, for example.

Good Tide Gummies options

The package is a cylinder that is fully compostable and recyclable. There is a button you push in to separate th top from the bottom of the packaging. Inside are the gummies and they hardly take up half of the package, not sure why there is so much extra packaging. Not too much pressure needed to open it, which is a blessing for folks with limited hand strength or arthritis.

Dosing & Flavor

The smell from the container is a strong real fruit smell. Good Tide gummies are made with real fruit ingredients and natural flavors for authentic, true-to-fruit flavor. With so many gummies having candy-like unnatural or artificial flavors, these are are a nice change to taste like the actual fruit. Of the edibles we’ve tried, this is the closest one has come to tasting like you are biting a piece of actual fruit.

Unlike the Kiva Camino gummies which are smooth and see-through, these have a more of a fruit chew appearance and a very light sugar-covered texture. They are easy to bite through and melt in the mouth more easily than most gummies. They are soft and have a very pleasant mouth feel.

These gummies contain Sugar, Tapioca Syrup, Water, Juice Concentrate, Natural Flavoring, Pectin (Pectin, Sodium Citrate), Coconut Oil, Cannabis Extract, Citric Acid, Mallic Acid, Carnauba Wax, and Sunflower Lecithin. Since they don’t contain gelatin, they are vegan friendly which is always a cruelty free plus.

They are gluten free, and dairy free, but they do contain coconut so not totally nut free. The gummies are not individually wrapped and need to be cut in half for a 5mg dose or in quarters for a 2.5mg dose. They are soft and round so it is quite easy cutting them in half.

As we always recommend with new edibles, try half of your usual dose before trying a full dose as you never know how strong something will effect you. The gummies are easy to cut or bite in half to give a 5mg dose of THC, then to split again for a 2.5mg dose. As everyone is different, it’s important to try a partial dose first to see how you react to new edibles.

Since I am experienced with edibles and my usual dose is 10mg of THC, I began with half of a half of one piece, with 5mg THC. After having only light effects for that trial run, I then moved closer to my usual dose on another day, taking one whole gummy for a total dose of 10mg THC. I still found the effects on the mild side, so I found that for me a 12.5 mg dose gives me a solid strength effect. I sometimes use one and a one eighth pieces for a 12.5mg dose of THC when I want a stronger effect, or if I have recently eaten or if I’ve taken CBD, which can tamp down the effects.

Effects

The effects were along the lines of what you’d expect from a Sativa strain like Super Lemon Haze. Uplifting, energetic, creative and a little bit spacey. The impacts are perfect for being able to function well with a boost of expansion for the head. The effects I experienced were closely aligned with the effects I’ve enjoyed with similar Sativa gummies, with very little body focused effects.

Excellent real-fruit forward flavor profiles and specific effects are what good edibles are meant to provide when we want to elevate. Good Tides cannabis edibles do a great job on both counts and set a high standard when it comes to natural flavors.

Good Tide is a Climate Neutral Certified company.

Available in California, Colorado and Oregon.

Cosmic View Moon Lollie Cannabis Infused Hard Candy Review

Posted on by

Cosmic View Moon Lollie Cannabis Infused hard candy line of edibles come in different flavor combinations. These are some of the most interesting flavor combinations in edibles that we’ve tried. They are “hand made in San Rafael, California with 100% pure holistic ingredients”.

In their Fall 2023 Limited Edition, 10 mg of Mango flower rosin meets toasted black sesame, locally harvested makrut (aka kaffir) lime and maldon sea salt. “Hand roasted black sesame is blended with locally foraged markrut lime leaf and North Country Farms’ Southfork Mango to create the perfect sweet, savory and hint of salty treat with all of your favorite flavors.”

North Country Farm’s South Fork Mango is a legacy Trinity County varietal crossed with a late 90’s Mango cut, creating a local favorite that thrives in Trinity’s unique micro-climates. Indica-dominant with floral notes and a soothing body high.

The package is a plastic pouch that can be difficult to open if you have limited hand strength or flexibility, it requires scissors and cannot be closed once opened, as this is a single use edible. The lollipop is well wrapped in what appeared to be a waxed type of candy paper that was fairly easy to unwrap.

Dosing & Flavor

Cosmic View Moon lollies are made with evaporated cane juice, fair trade tapioca syrup, non-GMO coconut oil, Mango flower rosin, non-GMO sunflower lecithin, black sesame seeds, makrut lime leaf, flaky sea salt, lemon verbena, passionflower, cream of tartar, and fair trade tapioca starch. Of the edibles we’ve tried, this edible provides some of the most unique and sophisticated flavor profiles.

They are hard candy type lollipops, so not easy to bite through but they do eventually melt in the mouth. They don’t contain gelatin or other animal products, so it seems they are vegan friendly which is always a cruelty free plus.

They are gluten free, and dairy free, but they do contain coconut oil so not totally nut free. They are hard so it is not a good idea to try cutting them in half.

As we always recommend with new edibles, try half of your usual dose before trying a full dose as you never know how strong something will effect you. As everyone is different, it’s important to try a partial dose first to see how you react to new edibles. Not easy with such a hard candy. If you are new to these, just stop after half the candy is gone, then wait to see what the impact is for you.

Since I am experienced with edibles and my usual dose is 10mg of THC, I began with half of one piece, with 5mg THC. After having only light effects for that trial run, I then moved closer to my usual dose on another day, taking one whole lollipop for a total dose of 10mg THC which was fine.

Effects

The effects were along the lines of what you’d expect from a dominant Indica strain with a relaxing and soothing body effect. Not too strong but noticeable for someone who is sensitive to the impacts of Indica flower.

Wana Quick Fast-Acting Cannabis Infused Gummies Review

Posted on by

Wana Quick Cannabis Infused fast-acting gummies line of edibles come in various different flavor and effect combinations, like Sativa Peach, CBD Strawberry Margarita, and Indica Pina Colada. They also come in other various flavors, including a Sativa “Sunrise” flavor for several of the states where they are sold, including Nevada and Colorado. These are some of the quickest acting gummies we’ve tried.

Each gummy has 10mg of THC per serving, for a total of 100mg THC per package. These gummies are formulated with fast-acting “molecular encapsulation”, which they explain creates smaller and easier to absorb molecules than nano technology.

Some Wana Quick Gummies options

The package is a squarish plastic cylinder that says “please recycle” but doesn’t have any of the usual recycle number symbols on it. You must squeeze near the top of the bottle to release the top and open the package. Inside are the gummies and they hardly take up half of the package, not sure why there is so much extra packaging. A fair amount of pressure is needed to open the package, not great for folks with limited hand strength or arthritis.

Dosing & Flavor

The smell from the container is a strong fruit punch smell. Wana gummies are made with natural flavors but they don’t say what the flavors are exactly. With so many gummies having candy-like unnatural or artificial flavors, these are not a stand out in the real-fruit flavor department. Like most of the edibles we’ve tried, these don’t come close to tasting like real fruit. But if taste is not your highest priority, not to worry.

Unlike the Kiva Camino gummies which are smooth and see-through, these have a more of a fruit chew appearance and a very light sugar-covered texture. They are fairly easy to bite through, are soft and have a pleasant mouth feel.

These gummies contain Sugar, Tapioca Syrup, Pectin, Citric Acid, Natural Flavoring, Modified Food Starch, Xanthan Gum, Sodium Citrate, Cannabis Extract, Terpenes, Sunflower Oil and Vegetable Oil. Since they don’t contain gelatin, they are vegan friendly which is always a cruelty free plus.

They are dairy free, and nut free. The gummies are not individually wrapped and need to be cut in half for a 5mg dose or in quarters for a 2.5mg dose. They are soft but shaped like triangles so take care when cutting them into thirds or cutting them in half.

As we always recommend with new edibles, try half of your usual dose before trying a full dose as you never know how strong something will effect you. The gummies are easy to cut or bite in half to give a 5mg dose of THC, then to split again for a 2.5mg dose. As everyone is different, it’s important to try a partial dose first to see how you react to new edibles.

Since I am experienced with edibles and my usual dose is 10mg of THC, I began with half of a half of one piece, with 5mg THC.

Run of the mill flavor profiles but good strength and specific effects are what these edibles provide when we want to elevate. Wana Quick cannabis edibles do a good job

Wally Drops Watermelon Cannabis Infused Hard Candy Review

Posted on by

Wally Drops Cannabis Infused hard candy line of edibles come in eleven different flavor combinations. They all seem to be made with a hybrid mix of cannabis, with no indication of Sativa, Indica or any strain names. These are some of the most Jolly Rancher tasting edibles we’ve tried.

There are some with just THC, some with just CBD and some flavors with THC and CBD. Each candy has 10mg of THC per serving, for a total of 100mg THC per package.

The package is a child proof resealable pouch that can be difficult to open if you have limited hand strength or flexibility.

Dosing & Flavor

The smell from the container is a strong supercharged fruit smell. Wally Drops hard candies are made with sugar, corn syrup, water, coconut oil, and THC. For some reason they don’t mention what is used to flavor the candies, but I’m guessing it is artificial flavor based on the taste. Of the edibles we’ve tried, this is the closest one has come to tasting like the strong flavors of a Jolly Rancher candy.

They don’t contain gelatin or other animal products, so it seems they are vegan friendly which is always a cruelty free plus.

They are gluten free, and dairy free, but they do contain coconut so not totally nut free. The candies are not individually wrapped and need to be cut in half for a 5mg dose or in quarters for a 2.5mg dose. They are hard so it is not easy cutting them in half, use caution. Not easy to bite through either, but they do eventually melt in the mouth.

As we always recommend with new edibles, try half of your usual dose before trying a full dose as you never know how strong something will effect you. As everyone is different, it’s important to try a partial dose first to see how you react to new edibles. Not easy with such a hard candy.

Since I am experienced with edibles and my usual dose is 10mg of THC, I began with half of one piece, with 5mg THC. After having only light effects for that trial run, I then moved closer to my usual dose on another day, taking one whole candy for a total dose of 10mg THC which was fine.

Effects

The effects were along the lines of what you’d expect from a dominant Sativa strain with an uplifting and happy effect. Since hybrid formulas can vary widely, you may get different effects with different batches, which is a drawback. But overall I was very happy with the uplifting effect without any couch lock or heavy body impact.

Wyld Cannabis Infused Indica Sour Cherry Gummies Review

Posted on by

Wyld Cannabis Infused Gummies line of edibles are cannabis gummies that come in ten different flavor and effect combinations. The line comes in nine flavors of gummies , each featuring a specific type of cannabis – Sativa, Indica or Hybrid. Some are formulated with CBD, CBN, or CBG.

Each Sour Cherry Indica gummy has 10mg of THC and <2mg of CBD per serving, for a total of 100mg THC and <2mg of CBD per package. These gummies are not just infused with the usual distilled THC but are formulated with botanical terpenes to help create more specific effects.

The terpenes in the Indica Sour Cherry are myrcene, linalool, beta-caryophyllene, and terpineol. We like that they list the terpenes on their website for each product.

WYLD Sour Cherry Gummies Indica box

The package is an unusual shape, almost an origami-type of a box with three lids folding down on each other. You have to get your nail or finger underneath one of the flaps to open the exterior box. Inside is a plastic container with a tape across the opening so you know they haven’t been opened. It’s the type of child proof container where you squeeze the sides to pop open the lid. Not too much pressure needed to open it, which is a blessing for folks with limited hand strength or arthritis.

Dosing & Flavor

The smell from the container is primarily a strong real fruit smell. Wyld gummies are made with real fruit ingredients and natural flavors for authentic, true-to-fruit flavor. With so many gummies having candy-like unnatural or artificial flavors, these are are a nice change to taste like the actual fruit.

Unlike the Kiva Camino gummies which are smooth and see-through, these have a more of a fruit chew appearance and a very light sugar-covered texture. They are easy to bite through and melt in the mouth more easily than most gummies. They are soft and have a very pleasant mouth feel.

These gummies contain Sugar, Tapioca Syrup, Water, Cherry Juice Concentrate, Gelatin, Malic Acid, Coconut Oil, Natural Flavoring, Citric Acid, Pectin (Pectin, Sodium Citrate), Cannabis Extract, Sunflower Lecithin. Due to the gelatin,they are not vegan friendly unfortunately. They do contain natural coloring and flavoring. They are gluten free, and dairy free, but they do contain coconut so not totally nut free. The gummies are not individually wrapped and need to be cut in half for a 5mg dose or in quarters for a 2.5mg dose. They are soft and square-ish so it is quite easy cutting them in half.

As we always recommend with new edibles, try half of your usual dose before trying a full dose as you never know how strong something will effect you. The gummies are easy to cut or bite in half to give a 5mg dose of THC, then to split again for a 2.5mg dose. As everyone is different, it’s important to try a partial dose first to see how you react to new edibles.

Since I am experienced with edibles and my usual dose is 10mg of THC, I began with half of a half of one piece, with 5mg THC. After having only light effects for that trial run, I then moved closer to my usual dose on another day, taking one whole gummy for a total dose of 10mg THC. I sometimes use one and a one eighth pieces for a 12.5mg dose of THC when I want a stronger effect, or if I have recently eaten or if I’ve taken CBD, which can tamp down the effects. But 10mg is usually “just right”.

Effects

I am sensitive to the effects of strong Indica strains and the edibles that use Indica strains. These were a pleasant surprise as they didn’t put me to sleep or get me locked into the couch. The nice body relaxing impacts are perfect for an end-of-day experience while still being able to function. The effects I experienced were closely aligned with the effects I’ve enjoyed with similar terpene-specific gummies, relaxing and chill impacts from the Indica-dominant strain.

If you like a really strong body impact from your Indica edibles, you might not find these fit the bill. For folks like me, who are best pleased with a more restrained “two-beers” type of feeling, these are exactly what I like for an afternoon/evening of elevation.

Truly enjoyable real-fruit forward flavor profiles and specific effects are what I look for when I want to elevate. Wyld cannabis edibles do a great job on both counts and really up the game when it comes to natural flavors.
