Lavinia is bringing its approach to cannabis and sexual wellness beyond California. The Los Angeles-founded brand has introduced hemp-derived versions of its Kinky Bites Before-Sex gummies, expanding its business with a direct-to-consumer collection for eligible adult customers.
Founded by Katie Enright, Lavinia launched in 2021 with its oh.hi lubricant before adding edibles to the lineup. The company says it grew to nearly 400 brick-and-mortar locations throughout California. Now, the hemp-derived collection gives the brand another channel to reach customers interested in its combination of THC, botanicals, and intimacy-focused products.
The expansion begins with Pineapple and Watermelon Kinky Bites, featuring 5 milligrams of hemp-derived delta-9 THC per gummy.
Katie Enright Built Lavinia Around More Open Conversations
Lavinia’s story started on a much smaller scale than its current retail footprint.
“Lavinia was started in my apartment kitchen in California during the pandemic,” Enright said in the company’s announcement. “We’ve spent the last several years building a community around pleasure, education and self-discovery, and now we can finally bring that to people across the country.”
That origin remains central to the brand’s identity. Lavinia approaches sexual wellness through approachable language, playful product names, and an emphasis on making intimacy easier to discuss.
Its original oh.hi lubricant established that direction. Kinky Bites extended it into edibles, giving the company another format through which to introduce its perspective on cannabis and adult wellness.
The hemp launch builds on that existing identity. Customers discovering Lavinia outside California will encounter the same focus that shaped its dispensary products: adult conversations about pleasure, personal preferences, and exploration.
What Are Lavinia’s Hemp-Derived Kinky Bites?
The new Kinky Bites pair hemp-derived delta-9 THC with a botanical blend containing horny goat weed, longjack, and maca root.
According to Lavinia, the gummies are vegan and available in two flavors: Pineapple and Watermelon. Each jar contains 25 gummies with 5 milligrams of THC per piece, totaling 125 milligrams per container.
The listed one-time purchase price is $59.
Lavinia markets Kinky Bites for intimate occasions. That positioning describes the intended product experience; individual responses to THC vary, and the formulation should not be treated as a guaranteed way to improve sexual performance or satisfaction.
The Kinky Bites product page also offers recurring subscription options with pricing that varies by delivery schedule. Customers should review the selected frequency, recurring charge, and cancellation terms before subscribing. mylavinia.com
For this launch, the product details give consumers a straightforward starting point: two flavors, a clearly stated THC amount, and a choice between individual purchases and scheduled deliveries.
A New Way to Reach Customers Beyond Dispensaries
For a California cannabis brand, reaching customers outside the state requires a different distribution strategy.
Lavinia’s hemp-derived collection creates an online channel alongside its established California cannabis business. Eligible customers can explore product descriptions, ingredients, and purchasing options through the brand’s website.
The expansion also gives Lavinia more room to explain its products directly. Its website includes ingredient information, certificates of analysis, frequently asked questions, and separate guidance about product use and expectations.
Those resources matter for a product that combines THC with several botanicals. Customers should be able to look beyond a product name and understand what is in the jar before deciding whether it fits their preferences.
While the company describes the launch as a national expansion, availability remains location-dependent. The Lavinia website currently lists selected states for its hemp-derived collection and notes that shipping is subject to restrictions and product eligibility. mylavinia.com
Sexual Wellness Shapes Lavinia’s Brand Identity
Lavinia has a specific focus within the broader cannabis market. Its products are built around intimacy, and its messaging gives that subject a prominent place.
That focus connects the original lubricant, the Kinky Bites lineup, and the company’s plans for additional products. It also gives Enright a consistent subject to discuss as the business reaches new customers.
“We’ve always believed that pleasure is wellness, and that it deserves to be talked about,” Enright said in the announcement.
The statement captures the company’s philosophy. Lavinia wants pleasure to be part of the wellness conversation, with room for adults to ask questions and make their own choices.
For readers following Respect My Region’s cannabis coverage, the expansion offers a look at how a California-founded company is translating an established product identity into a broader consumer business.
The story is about distribution as much as formulation. Lavinia is introducing a new collection while carrying forward the founder’s original emphasis on education, openness, and personal exploration.
What Is Next for Lavinia?
Kinky Bites lead the hemp-derived rollout, but Lavinia has outlined plans to expand the collection.
According to the company’s announcement, hemp versions of its flagship oh.hi lubricant and Goodnight Kiss sleep gummies are expected before the end of 2027. Those are planned releases, with timing subject to change.
For now, Pineapple and Watermelon Kinky Bites introduce the hemp collection to eligible adult customers beyond California. The launch marks another step for a business that began in Enright’s apartment kitchen and developed into a brand with a distinct place in the cannabis and sexual wellness conversation.
For adults 21 and older where permitted. Availability and laws vary by location. THC is intoxicating and can impair judgment; do not drive after use. Keep products away from children and pets. Cannabis use never replaces clear, freely given, ongoing consent.
