Kanha sour cherry belt rating

You will have a hard time finding a shortage of gummy bears in any corner of the edible market. Most edible companies use THC or CBD distillate to infuse their gummy bears, usually separating them into 10 milligram pieces. “All the brightly colored packaging and kaleidoscope of flavors could lead you to believe that the possibilities for infused candy are endless,” wrote Kate Ryan for Weedmaps. “But as a gummy bear connoisseur I would like to tell you: Most weed gummies are practically indistinguishable.”

In a market where most weed gums are almost identical on a chemical level, finding a canna-infused chew that separates from the package ultimately becomes a matter of presentation, shape, taste, and personal taste. If a gummy bear makes a big difference, it depends on whether the gummy bear contains other cannabinoids and terpenes (even in trace amounts) and on its own genetic make-up for absorbing cannabinoids through digestion.

As someone who has tried pretty much every popular gummy bear in Southern California and whose body is generally susceptible to edibles, for me Kanha’s infused gummy bears hit a sweet spot between familiarity and innovation in presentation and impact.

For this review, I’ll be checking out Kanha’s new Sour Cherry Limeade-infused belts.

First impressions

Kanha belts come in your typical, high-performance, resealable pouch with all the usual information on the front label, including quantity (two belts), THC content (50 milligrams of THC per belt, with five 10 milligram servings per belt) and taste ( emphasizes sour to distinguish it from Kanha’s regular, sweeter waistline).

A prominent element of the label, however, is a white line on the lower edge with bold, black capital letters that read “for the high-dose consumer”. The relatively subtle but distinct framing of this product sets it apart from your typical 10 milligram gum. Although the label also indicates that the product can be consumed in moderately-dosed 10-milligram segments, labeling it as a high-dose 50-milligram total product is a significant change.

There is a section on the back of the pack that addresses the “high-dose consumer” aspect and suggests a dosage flexibility that retains the consumer who prefers moderate, controlled doses without giving up the advertised high-dose functionality entirely.

Again, most of it is a question of presentation. And sure, you might as well buy a can of 10 milligram gummies and take five of them at once to theoretically get the same effect. There are also many candy bars and other edibles that theoretically break a high-dose piece into 10 or 5 milligram segments. However, the fact that this gummy product guides consumers with flexible high-dose parameters to make their own dosage decisions makes it a significant and worthwhile outlier.

taste

When I opened my bag of Kanha Sour belts, I was a little surprised at their weight and texture. Other rubbery “belts” I’ve tried have been ultra-thin and, frankly, not particularly tempting in terms of texture or taste. These belts have a wonderfully sweet taste, while the acidity sets a subtle accent.

Overall, these belts offer a much more pleasant consumer experience than the competing products I tested.

effectiveness

Given the product’s “high dose consumer” label, I decided to test its effectiveness by breaking off three segments for a total of 30 milligrams of THC. This would give me an idea of ​​how effective the product is in high doses while still being a little cautious for my first run. I figured a dose between 10 and 50 milligrams would also give me an idea of ​​what to expect at either end of the spectrum.

I broke off three pieces of a belt and ate them around 6 p.m., about an hour before dinner. I should mention that I was particularly impressed with how easily the belt segments break, even though the belt as a whole felt and looked like a seamless gummy bear. In any case, an hour passed, almost to the minute, before I felt the effect kick in, at first subtle and creeping, then suddenly, like a psychedelic slow-motion rush of blood to the head.

experience

That hour between consumption and activation was one of those hours when you somehow forget that you have taken something edible because you are just enough lost in the everyday life of now or whatever else is going on. My wife had just got home and we were attending our typical “How was your day” decompression session. As the hour passed and I found myself in, “Oh yeah, am I feeling that?” During the crawl phase, my wife was in the process of telling me this creepy real-life ghost story she’d heard from someone at work. Then the universe timed it just right, so the climax of their story was just right when I got that bang-boom-pow feeling. But it wasn’t a bad trip. When it hit, it hit hard, but not alarmingly or fearfully, as is often the case with high-performance edibles.

The rest of the night played out like a long chill-beat jazz-hop playlist, the kind of high that slowed time so I could make a nice meal but still feel like I was enjoying it. After dinner, I streamed a few shows and found that I was enjoying them and following them (mostly) as my mind raced with thoughts and impressions and multiple strands of ideas.

It was a bit of a rapid-fire thought-trip, but one that I enjoyed and felt in sync with. And meanwhile I felt my limbs loosen up and warm up with a highly potent tingling sensation. At one point I was afraid I would start shaking, which is always my first sign that an edible high is going to go bad, but the shaking never came, nor did my usual bout of mild paranoia.

It was a quarter to ten when I thought about checking my watch. I was still high but had been on the hill for about half an hour. Then my body sank deeper into a heavy relaxation, the veil of thought began to dissolve and my eyesight became sharper again.

Bottom line

An edible – or any highly effective weed product – is just right for me if I feel in harmony with the chaos of all possible sensory impressions.

Thirty milligrams of Kanhas Sour Cherry Limeade candy belts will certainly put me in this very space, curbing fear and paranoia as I relax my body and totally flip the dial on all head-buzz frequencies. Plus, it’s a tasty treat presented in a liquid, consumer-friendly form.

So, if you’re a high-dose consumer, this is a gummy bear well worth searching for and trying out at your own pace in the comfort of your own.
