As the leading brand in the premium cannabis space, STIIIZY has established itself as the top brand in the market – from the hundreds of dispensaries across California to the booming cannabis market in New York. In addition to being the first brand to pioneer a pod-based vape system, STIIIZY continues to innovate in many areas of the cannabis marketplace.
This article outlines how their current product offerings fit into their overall approach, and how they can help you find the right product based on your individual preferences.
Overview: A Three-Tiered Strategy for Every User
STIIIZY Hemp has moved beyond a one-note offering. Their current lineup reveals a clear strategy:
- The Balanced Introduction: Hemp-derived delta-9 and CBD products offer a familiar experience for customers looking for a product that still allows them to enjoy the effects of THC legally.
- The Potent Frontier: Innovative blends like the X-Blend (HHC, THC-P, and delta-10) offer experienced customers with a new way to achieve an intense and long-lasting effect.
- Social Options: Products such as their seltzers and ready-to-use blunts allow customers to enjoy their hemp products socially while achieving the desired results quickly.
Overall, STIIIZY has developed a clear understanding of the modern cannabinoid customer and is now offering the "right tool for the job."
Does STIIIZY Hemp Have THC?
Yes, but with some important qualifications. STIIIZY uses two forms of THC to produce different experiences:
The Delta-9 THC used in STIIIZY's gummies and seltzers comes from hemp and contains 0.3% THC by dry weight, which is the maximum amount allowed under federal law. Although this translates to a measured, effective dose of THC per serving (for example, 10 milligrams per gummy), it produces the exact same type of experience as traditional cannabis products, but under a legal framework.
Synthetic Derivatives of THC (HHC, THC-P, Delta-10): STIIIZY's X-Blend products contain synthetic derivatives of THC, specifically hydrogenated versions of THC (HHC) and others derived from CBD (THC-P and Delta-10). These substances are extremely potent, with reports suggesting THC-P is 10 times more potent than Delta-9 in activating cannabinoid receptors, and fall into a gray area of legality, particularly at the state level.
Note: All of these compounds will result in a failed drug test. As noted earlier, please consult your state's regulations regarding HHC and THC-P.
A Modern Take on Classic Cannabis Edibles – STIIIZY Gummies
STIIIZY takes a modern twist on the classic cannabis gummy. These edibles provide consumers with a sophisticated and targeted experience. STIIIZY gummies are designed for various purposes including sleep support, and to provide a balanced daily dose of cannabinoids. Each STIIIZY gummy formulation includes the following details:
The Sleep Gummies have been a favorite of mine. The 2:1 ratio of THC:CBD in the STIIIZY Sleep Gummies is more than just a marketing claim. CBN is a cannabinoid that has been linked to sedative effects. Taking 1/10th of the 10mg piece approximately an hour before bedtime creates a gentle, heavy eyed relaxation that is very different from the high from a typical THC-only edible. It is less cerebral and more physically soothing, making it my go to for calming my busy mind when going to bed.
If you need to find a solution to relieve discomfort or stress without the feeling of being overly “high,” the Delta 9 + CBD Gummies are a great choice. The CBD tempers the psychoactive edge of the THC, creating a relaxed and focused and functional experience. The nano-emulsification used in the Delta 9 + CBD Gummies allows the user to receive the effects from the edible in as little as 30 minutes. This eliminates the uncertainty of waiting for hours to determine how the edible will affect the user.
A Refreshing & Quick Acting Option – STIIIZY THC Seltzers
Each 355 ml can contains 5 mg of hemp derived Delta-9 THC, made to be compliant with the 2018 Farm Bill. They are Gluten Free, Vegan, and feature bold, all-natural fruit flavors like Watermelon Wave and Mango Tango.
They differ from most cannabis beverages in their Hydro Fiber Technology, which produces a smooth and clean taste without the oily residue found in many cannabis beverages. Additionally, they exhibit an unusually quick onset time for a cannabis edible. From the time I finish a can of STIIIZY THC seltzer, I typically start to feel a subtle but noticeable uplifting buzz in approximately 15-20 minutes. This makes the experience of using the product easy to manage and predictable.
These seltzers serve a very distinct purpose. They are suitable for a variety of settings. If you wish to enjoy a low calorie and controlled lift without the need for cannabis smoke or intoxicating alcoholic beverages, they are a great choice. At 5 mg, this is an easily manageable dose for most adults and the discreet packaging makes them resemble a premium sparkling water.
The Height of Potency – STIIIZY 40’s Blunts
For those who value the craft of their cannabis experience and desire extremely potent effects, STIIIZY 40’s Blunts are the pinnacle of the brands’ premium smoking line. The 40’s series is named due to the elevated amount of total cannabinoids in each product which is formulated to reach or surpass 40%.
Each of the STIIIZY 40’s blunts is a masterfully constructed, multi-layered product:
- The Core: Each of the blunts begins with a full half-gram of premium cannabis flower.
- The Infusion: Next, the flower is infused with STIIIZY’s handcrafted live resin. Live resin preserves the full aromatic terpene profile of the fresh plant. This makes each of the STIIIZY 40’s blunts a unique experience.
- The Finish: To finish the product, the pre-roll is coated in Kief (Cannabis Trichomes). The pre-roll is then rolled in 100% Tobacco-Free Hemp Paper. Some of the STIIIZY 40’s blunts include a premium glass tip to ensure a smooth, clean and cold burn.
The end result is a consistently strong and flavorful smoking experience. Experts in the industry agree that this process, “Sets a New Standard for Quality in Infused Pre-Rolls.”
The Importance of "Start Low, Go Slow"
Regardless of the product you choose, you need to adhere to the mantra of "start low, go slow". This is especially true of the X-Blend products. Even if you have a high tolerance for traditional edibles, novel cannabinoids like THC-P act much differently. Start with 1/4 or 1/2 of a gummy and wait two hours. When using seltzers, start with one serving (usually half a can) and wait thirty minutes. Each person's endocannabinoid system is unique. Dosing is not a competition.
Final Verdict and Recommendations
STIIIZY Hemp has evolved significantly since they started off simply offering a line of Delta-8 products, and now offers a complete, multi-tiered platform of cannabinoids. The quality, transparency and thoughtfulness of their formulations continues to stand out.
STIIIZY Hemp is no longer just an alternative, it is now a destination for tailored cannabinoid experiences. By providing this range of products, they have created a legitimate, lab-tested map for navigating the confusing landscape of legal hemp products, although it is still the responsibility of the informed consumer to ensure their own legal and personal safety.
