CANNABIS CULTURE – CBD in coffee is a new idea spreading fast.  I like the concept – caffeine without the jitters, cannabis without the high – but I think Crazy Calm has an average product in a blossoming market.

Finding CBD in food and drink is making a scene in the states.  I had a donut in Portland with the slippery stuff baked right in, and it made for a smooth afternoon.  Most of us like getting cozy and snacking at the end of the day. Now, you can chill in the mornings while you’re being productive.  Crazy Calm is a company out of Austin TX combining CBD with instant Coffee. (Unfortunately, they only ship within the United States for now).

The coffee is a dark-roast, and Crazy Calm has little to say about where it comes from:  “Our blend is USDA organic, fair trade coffee…” With notes of dog treats and flat soda, it’s not for the connoisseur of delicate java.  But instant coffee has its benefits. Already being brewed to a perfect extraction yield and dehydrated, the cup should never come up sour or leave a dry taste in you mouth.  You could think of it as an americano, just add more water for less intensity. Instant coffee can be great when you are in a rush or far from a café.  It could be very useful while camping; it’s lightweight, easy, and the CBD may slave you ground-slept body.  And getting 10 cups for $34.99 (US) is not a bad price, considering the little packs are also carrying the body beneficial CBD.  You can even buy it with crypto currency and Crazy will give you 10% off for not involving the banks.

The cool thing about Crazy Calm is, although their coffee management is vague, they seem serious about sourcing good CBD.  I found a lab sheet for the current Nov 2019 batch, and it looks scientific at least. I know it gave me a much-needed ease for an intensive course.  They’ve also compared the controversial nature of cannabis to that of coffee a few hundred years ago, connecting the two rascals in one packet and in their developing benefits to society.

I give Crazy Calm’s CBD Coffee 5 smiling monkeys out of a possible 9.
