Our team believes that finding the right edible is essential. Our knowledgeable staff walk you through our entire edibles menu so you can leave with a smart choice every time.
What Are Cannabis Edibles?
Cannabis edibles are consumable goods that have been infused with THC, CBD, or other cannabinoids. These products are available in an impressive range of forms — including beverages, hard candies, and mints. The main distinction between edibles and inhalation methods is the metabolic path of the cannabinoids.
When you eat an edible, the THC and CBD pass through your digestive system before entering your circulation. The liver converts THC into a more potent metabolite, which reaches the brain more intensely than smoked cannabis. This process is why edibles generate effects that are more intense and longer-lasting compared to other methods.
Grasping the timing is key with edibles. Unlike smoking, which produces results within seconds to minutes, cannabis edibles typically need anywhere from 45 minutes to 90 minutes to kick in. That waiting period is one of the most important things beginners need to know before trying edibles.
