Dreamt
Dreamt is all about providing you with “the sleep you’ve been dreaming of.” Backed by science, these products (gummies, pens, tinctures, and shots) give you a slight high before bed, help you fall asleep quickly, and stay asleep through the night. Take their quiz to find out which product is best for you.
Scientist Carolina Vazquez Mitchell had chronic sleep issues her whole life. Developing Dreamt is only one of her many achievements. The Guadalajara, Mexico native came to the United States to earn her PhD in chemistry and has now developed over 60 cannabis products. Among her many achievements, Mitchell was one of Dope Magazine’s Outstanding Women in Cannabis.
Joining Mitchell is co-founder and best friend Dr. Jannis Babbush who also has her PhD, in inorganic chemistry. Babbush ensures Dreamt’s products are backed by science and rigorously tested.

Kikoko brings women high quality cannabis alternatives to pharmaceuticals and alcohol. Products range from teas, pre-rolls, mints, tinctures, shots and tabs; all of which can aid in your mood, pain relief, sleep, and sex life. Their products are made with organic, non-GMO ingredients, New Zealand honey, and sun grown cannabis. Sustainability is of the utmost importance as well; packaging is made of compostable or recyclable materials, “to every extent possible.”
