Cannabis has been medically legal in Florida since 2014, but it wasn’t until August 2020 that edible marijuana also met legality in the state. With the demand knowingly high and the pandemic in full force, dispensaries rushed to be the first few to offer edible products. One dispensary that was quick to offer edibles, and a variety at that, was nationwide cannabis brand Curaleaf; who also operates in New York, Michigan, New Jersey, and other legal states.
Three of their most popular edible products including the Sweet Heat THC Chews, Arctic Berry THC Nano Chews, and Strawberry Lemonade Squeeze THC Nano Drops. Each of these edibles are different from each other but hold similar features and effects.
If you’re having trouble choosing which edibles to buy from Curaleaf in Florida, this article can certainly help you make an educated decision. Depending on your preferences, Curaleaf likely has solid option(s) for you when it comes to cannabis edibles in FL.
Three Cannabis Edibles from Curaleaf in Florida:
Sweet Heat THC Chews
During my first trip to Curaleaf in Titusville, Florida my mission was to pick up a pack of the Sweet Heat THC Chews. The name alone intrigued me, and had me curious if it was similar to Respect my Region’s own Mango Chili Lime CBD gummies. The budtender informed me that though the flavor is solid, it doesn’t have much of a heat or spicy taste. Nonetheless I still grabbed a 200mg pack to try. Each gummy contained 10mg of THC, with a total of 20 gummies in the package. For $44, each chew is only around $2. However, Curaleaf often offers sales bringing down the price substantially.
The label informed that the Sweet Heat THC Chews from Curaleaf are a hybrid, with origins stringing from Strawberry Diesel. Based on my experience, I can confirm the balanced hybrid effects.
Review & Experience with Curaleaf Sweet Heat THC Chews
Upon ripping open the package I was met with a sweet tropical aroma. I bit into the chews with little expectation flavor-wise, but was left decently impressed. Though the flavor was lacking any heat, the sweet flavor is pleasant. It is similar to a mango flavor, which the budtender also thought. I’m not a huge mango fan personally, but because it was faint I still enjoyed it. The texture was favorable compared to other gummies in the state, with none left stuck to my teeth.
The effects left me locked into the couch, but still able to get some minor work done. The effects reminded me of strains like Chemdawg and Stardawg, which leave you with a pleasant floaty feeling; but it keeps you alert enough to get things done as needed.
Arctic Berry THC Nano Chews
After getting a text for a great sale going on at Curaleaf, I decided to hop in the car for another trip. I hadn’t decided what I wanted prior to arriving, but I had been curious about their Arctic Berry THC Nano Chews for awhile now. In the picture on the website it looks more like a white cube rather than the square, thin gummy it is. Because of the feature picture and flavor name, I had expectations it may be similar to Ice Breakers gum cubes.
Upon arriving and chatting with the budtender, who was very friendly, I had made up my mind that I would try the Arctic Berry THC Nano Chews. But, the budtender warned me that the flavor is not favorable amongst staff or customers. Nonetheless, I was curious to try them, especially at a discounted price.
Each package comes loaded with 100mg of THC split into 20, 5mg gummies. The Nano technology allows the chews to be faster acting compared to Curaleaf’s regular chews and others on the market. The gummies utilize “Nano-emulsion technology,” as “the edibles are infused with small, water-soluble cannabinoids that allow for faster, more efficient cannabinoid consumption.”
Review & Experience with Curaleaf Arctic Berry THC Nano Chews
Upon opening the package, I wasn’t taken back by the smell, negatively or positively. It didn’t smell as horrid as the budtender made it seem, but the taste is the real test. Chewing into the gummy, I noticed a slightly different texture than the regular THC Chews. These chews have a very thin sugary coating which adds to the nice texture.
Unfortunately the taste is as bad as the budtender warned me. Honestly, it reminded me of cough medicine I took as a kid. Nonetheless, some people prefer this type of flavor AND it is sugar free, so Curaleaf definitely still sells this product. I personally wouldn’t purchase it again, but if you have curious taste buds or a specific diet preference, I definitely recommend trying out this product.
Strawberry Lemonade Squeeze THC Nano Drops
During that second visit to Curaleaf in Titusville, Florida, I also picked up other products. One of these products is the Strawberry Lemonade Squeeze THC Nano Drops, which I claimed with my loyalty points. In fact, between the 40% off sale and my loyalty dollars, the product was completely free. It was almost a no brainer to purchase when the budtender suggested it to me.
I had definitely been curious for awhile to try out this product as liquid edibles are not common in Florida. The Sunshine State does not yet have cannabis infused beverages, so the Squeeze THC Nano Drops from Curaleaf are the closest product to it.
Review & Experience with Curaleaf Strawberry Lemonade Squeeze THC Nano Drops
I was honestly way more excited to try the Nano Drops over the Nano Chews. I dove right in when I first arrived home, and frankly a little too quick. The liquid is not meant to be swigged like I had done, which left a funky feeling in my throat. Instead, it is meant to mix in a drink. That is, unless you’re cool with the grimy taste of it on its own.
When mixing it in a drink, it doesn’t necessarily positively add to the beverage, but it doesn’t really negatively contribute either. If you add more than the recommended dose, then it likely will make your drink taste a bit off. Each dose is 5mg with 150mg total in the bottle. Effects are said to kick in in about 15 minutes, which I can confirm from experience.
