<\/p>\n

Zion Herbals is carrying their motto, \u201cstrictly the best,\u201d into all they do.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Founded in 2010, the Richmond, Virginia-based botanicals and extracts brand offers a wide range of hemp products, all designed to give users clean, effective and consistent results for an improved sense of well-being.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In order to maintain control over the entire manufacturing process and ensure the highest quality from seed-to-sale,\u00a0Zion Herbals<\/a>\u00a0sources hemp from their Oregon and Virginia hemp farms.\u00a0Both farms are located on land that has been untouched for over 100 years, and are completely free of chemicals, pesticides and processed fertilizers. Only bat guano and fish emulsion are used for fertilization. Although they don\u2019t have the USDA certification, all farming is organic and follows a a Rastafarian level of purity known as \u201cItal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Zion Herbals is the flagship brand of parent company\u00a0BotanaWay<\/a>, which offers white label manufacturing and branding services for approximately 40 brands and provides hemp cannabinoid extracts for more than 200 brands.\u00a0For BotanaWay founder and CEO, David Reynolds Derian, Zion Herbals is an outlet where he can showcase the company\u2019s high-quality extractions via in-house formulations in a variety of delivery methods\u2014from tinctures and pressed tablets to pre-rolls and liquid gels.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe always offer a higher level of purity and lab-verified cleanliness with less residual solvents then can be found anywhere in the industry,\u201d he said.\u00a0\u201cStrictly the best is our motto, and that is what we\u2019re known for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pushing the Limits of Extraction<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Zion Herbals pushes extraction methods to over 99% pure, meaning a complete isolation of the cannabinoids. Their Delta-8 THC is at 95% purity, compared to most competitors on the market, which rank in the high 80s.\u00a0\u00a0Once purity reaches the high nineties, the oil becomes crystal clear, like water.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u00a0visibly see its cleanliness,\u201d Derian said. <\/p>\n

The company\u2019s proprietary extraction process uses multiple extraction methods in order to reach this high level of purity with the end-result being a completely solvent-free extract.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe final steps to get to the higher stages are super expensive and difficult,\u201d Derian said, explaining that a greater level of knowledge and understanding around safety is required, as well as additional lab equipment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A higher level of purity doesn\u2019t necessarily make for a stronger product. However, when cannabinoids are surrounded by fewer impurities, they can bind to the body\u2019s receptors more effectively. This translates to a cleaner, healthier, and more well-rounded experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSteps of pushing it to the extreme are costly, but these are things we don\u2019t avoid,\u201d Derian said.\u00a0\u201cI believe we are a couple steps ahead. By the time others get to where we are, we are going to be on another plateau.\u201d <\/p>\n

Refined Delivery\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Zion Herbals intentionally stays away from more recreationally inspired consumption methods, such as gummy bear edibles and vaping. Rather, the company aims to create mature delivery methods, like pressed CBD tablets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re trying to forge and develop new paths as a dietary supplement manufacturer,\u201d Derian said. \u201cI think CBD tablets, much like a pressed aspirin, is the future.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Derian, since these kinds of products are more normalized in society, they also appeal to a broader range of consumers seeking the benefits of hemp. <\/p>\n

Delta-8 THC\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

All Zion Herbals products are health-oriented, including their Delta-8 THC.\u00a0Derian was initially on the fence about adding Delta-8 THC to the product line, but after a loyal customer shared how the cannabinoid had helped him manage pain without anxiety, Derian decided it supported the Zion Herbals mission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mission is to provide natural alternatives to pharmaceuticals,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Packaged in pharmaceutical-style bottles, the Delta-8 liquid gels are intended for medicinal uses rather than a way for people to get high. The effects are fast-acting and immensely stronger than CBD.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Five Fan Favorites<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Zion Herbals offers a plethora of products to choose from online. A few favorites are the best-selling CBD Soft Chews, Pressed CBD Tablets, Hemp Flower Jars, Delta-8 THC Liquid Gels, and their line of Element C CBD Sparkling Juices.\u00a0Pushing the limits and staying ahead of the curve is what Zion Herbals is all about. Each of these products exemplifies their mission to improve and perfect delivery systems and flavors as they take CBD products to a new level.\u00a0<\/p>\n

1) Citrus Mango CBD Soft Chews<\/strong> <\/h5>\n
\"Zion<\/figure>\n

Through a partnership with The Apple Rush Company<\/a>, a leader in the natural beverage industry, Zion Herbals utilizes their access to large-scale food preparation equipment to make these unique\u00a0CBD Soft Chews<\/a>, featuring all organic ingredients. Reminiscent of a starburst, each delicious chew has a sweet Citrus Mango flavor and is formulated to offer a relaxing and well-balanced sense of calm. It\u2019s like a little treat and completely masks the bitter taste of CBD.\u00a0Individually wrapped,\u00a0each CBD chew contains 30mg of hemp extract and can be taken as needed. This is a great consumption option if you need CBD but haven\u2019t had much to eat, as the organic sugars act as a carrier and help your body absorb the product.\u00a0<\/p>\n

2) Pressed CBD Tablets\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\"Zion<\/figure>\n

Available in jars of ten, these\u00a0pressed CBD tablets<\/a>\u00a0contain 75mg of CBD each. If you are seeking relief for a specific health issue, whether it\u2019s severe pain or epilepsy, these tablets are an easy way to incorporate high levels of CBD into your diet daily. The precise dosing means you can count on every tablet being exactly 75mg.\u00a0While there are a few other pressed CBD tablets on the market, you\u2019re unlikely to find any with this high of a dosage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

3) Premium CBD, CBG and Delta-8 Infused Hemp Flower Jars<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\"Zion<\/figure>\n

Zion Herbals\u2019\u00a0whole hemp flower<\/a>\u00a0is available in CBD, CBG and CBD\/Delta-8 THC strains. All of these flower offerings give people a way to enjoy the benefits of CBD in a more social and spiritual way.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sour Space Candy, Cherry Cirtus, and T1 are CBD-only varietals. The Bubba Kush and Honolulu Haze strains combine both CBD and Delta-8 THC for an immediate calming effect.\u00a0Whole hemp flower is also available in two CBG strains: White Lion and White Whale. A natural sedative, CBG is a perfect way to wind down before bedtime. White Whale is grown in Oregon and is very frosty with a lot of cannabinoids on the flower, helping clean out your lungs. White Lion is grown on Zion Herbals\u2019 Virginia hemp farm and has an earthier flavor profile.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year, Zion Herbals is also growing Goliath, Abacus 2.0, and Peach Mint Kush on their Oregon hemp farm and will be adding these strains to their lineup in the fall.\u00a0<\/p>\n

4) Delta 8-THC, 20-mg Liquid Gels<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\"Zion<\/figure>\n

The\u00a0Delta-8 soft gel<\/a>\u00a0is an excellent way to ensure you are taking precisely 20mg at a time. To get standardized exact dosing requires precision\u2014something Zion Herbals can claim, thanks to their experience manufacturing for brands on a large-scale.\u00a0One capsule is a sufficient serving size and is very effective. You can expect to receive the maximum benefits that Delta 8-THC has to offer through an advanced delivery method that is easy to take with you on-the-go.\u00a0And last but not least, MCT oil (commonly known as coconut oil) is used for the carrier, making these liquid gels a natural, healthy option.<\/p>\n

5) CBD Sparkling Juices<\/strong><\/h5>\n
\"Zion<\/figure>\n

Zion Herbals teamed up with the beverage company Apple Rush to create their\u00a0Element C CBD Sparkling Juice<\/a>\u00a0line and reach a wider audience by tapping into their impressive distribution network. Available in Black Cherry, Blueberry, and Plain, these sparkling juices contain 25mg of water-soluble CBD. The plain flavor is like a sparkling water while the black cherry and blueberry flavors are similar to Fanta. <\/p>\n

With no added sugars and all organic ingredients from real juices, these sparkling juices are a fun and delicious way to ingest CBD. Zion Herbals\u2019 proprietary emulsification process makes for high bioavailability, meaning you will feel the effects faster and stronger too.<\/p>\n

Quality Assurance<\/strong><\/h4>\n

All of Zion Herbals\u2019 products are third-party lab-tested (typically by Columbia Food Laboratories) in order to give consumers complete peace of mind. Current QR codes are listed on each and every product, taking you directly to the most recent lab results for total transparency.\u00a0<\/p>\n
