Country music legend Willie Nelson launches CBD-infused coffee
kxan ^ | Feb. 5, 2019 | Tulsi Kamath

Country music legend and well-documented cannabis aficionado, Willie Nelson, introduced a hemp-infused coffee bean as the first product in his health and wellness line, "Willie's Remedy." The coffee is infused with "certified organic, full-spectrum hemp oil grown in Colorado" and the coffee is sourced from smallholder farms in Colombia. The brand is pegged to sell "non-intoxicating hemp-based products." Nelson's wife, Annie, curates the brand that will roll out more "hemp-based health and wellness products" this year. In 2015, the couple introduced "Willie's Reserve," a cannabis brand which taps licensed cultivators for their legal, medical and adult-use cannabis products. The company claims when brewed properly, each eight-ounce cup of Willie's Remedy coffee will contain seven milligrams of hemp-derived CBD. The product comes with a hefty $36 price tag and best practices for brewing so consumers can get the full intended effect.

Apparently smoking pot makes one a Doper Evangelist. Burning your brain out is a health benefit now? Rotfl.

The very description of an burned out old has been hippy.

Tried listening to one of his concerts a year or so ago. All he could do is twang on his guitar and try to sing.

"...pegged to sell "non-intoxicating hemp-based products."..."

Why in blazes would you want non-intoxicating stuff. It's only appeal is getting high; the crap reeks and makes you stupid.

So. Willie has moved from a super star performer to a snake oil salesman.

Good to know.

You can’t get high on CBDs.

Apparently kickin in doors in the middle of the night under the color of legality makes you a nazi that never had a brain to begin with.

CBD oil (with THC = zero), may have very positive medicinal properties.

That’s pretty non-sequitur. Smokin’ already, huh?

I don't think he will be able to sell that stuff in Texas. There is an effort to stop the sale of anything that contains CBD in the Lone Star state.

I’d take health advice from Willie. He’s aged so well.

Still alive?

He looks as healthy as that Indian dude. They could be brothers.

Stand by for heavy reefer madness rolls. The ignorance is strong on these threads.

Whenever I need to alter my consciousness, I find that listening to some good music does the job quite nicely.

Ditto for reading a challenging book.

As for mind-altering drugs, never had the urge, doubt I ever will.

CBD and THC are related but fairly distinct. CBD seems to have some promising health impacts.

So is the virtue signalling.
