RE: Botanicals Hemp Classic CBD Oil Tincture 1500mg

Back in January, when Boulder-based RE Botanicals, announced it had become the first CBD seller to receive an organic certification by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) and that a percentage of all of its sales would go to support regenerative agriculture and farmer education, we knew we were dealing with a unique, high-quality, thoughtfully-made brand.

The company was founded in 2018 by John Roulac, whose previous venture, organic superfoods brand NUTIVA was named one of America’s fastest-growing companies by Inc. Magazine for seven years in a row. Before RE Botanicals, Roulac also authored numerous books on both hempandsustainable practices — as a result,  the environmental responsibility on display in his new company is both serious and impressive. For example, because hemp plants are like sponges which can aggressively remove nutrients from the soil, RE Botanicals’ organic hemp is farmed by utilizing crop rotations (like alfalfa) that redistribute nutrients to improve soil health.

“At RE Botanicals, we believe that healthy soil creates healthy plants, healthy people and a healthy climate,” explained Roulac. “Hundreds of CBD brands, including some of the largest have falsely and illegally claimed their products are certified organic. Customers can and should request that the brands display their organic certifications on their website. Our team is honored to bring forth the highest quality and trusted USDA certified organic hemp CBD products to our family, friends and consumers.”

In addition to responsible farming and production, all of RE Botanicals’ products are certified glyphosate residue free — which means they do not contain glyphosate, a cancer-causing synthetic herbicide. And, according to cannabisMD’s independent, blind test by Think20 Labs, RE Botanicals contains no contaminates of any kind, including heavy metals or mold. It also passed all of Think20’s purity and potency tests, making it one of the safest and most highly-trusted products we’ve come across (simply put, unlike many CBD items currently on the market, it contains what it says it does).

RE Botanicals suggests starting slowly with a single serving of one full dropper (or less, depending on your previous experience with CBD). The brand recommends adjusting the dose after several weeks, depending on how it affects you.

THC – 2.67 mg/g
CBD – 47.27 mg/g
CBC – 2.2 mg/g

None detected

The company offers two flavor options for its organic CBD oil — mint and “classic.” The mint tastes as you’d imagine, fresh and light. The classic tastes more like that earthy, plant-y flavor we’ve come to expect from a pure hemp product, although RE Botanicals version has a milder taste that most reviewers found tolerable straight or nearly undetectable when added to beverages.

Beyond responsible farming, an organic seal of approval, a quality product from a company that gives back; RE Botanicals Hemp CBD oil also contains 47.27 mg of full-spectrum CBD, along with smaller (trace) amounts of THC and CBC. Some scientific evidence suggests that combining more than one cannabinoid, particularly THC, may make CBD oil more effective (i.e. the “entourage effect”). 

The company also offers a 30-day money back guarantee, so if you aren’t satisfied for any reason, you can return with no questions asked. As CBD oil can impact each body differently (though most all experts agree CBD is safe), this is a notable — and welcome — bonus.
