All three blends boast a different set of benefits, and I was lucky enough to try them all to provide you with an in-depth review of each. 

000 FOR BALANCE

Open the drawer of the Balancing CBD blend and behold your new favorite working “weed!” This blend of St. John’s Wort, organic food-grade mullein, and hemp flower tastes like a clove cigarillo had a baby with chai tea. Yum!

Of the three different variants, this joint behaves the most like a THC product, even though there’s less than the federally legal limit of .3% of THC found within the herbal mixture. The box accurately describes itself as, “High bliss without the trip.” And I concur.

After puffing on this delicious joint, I felt energized as if I had just absorbed the vibes from a matcha latte. I didn’t feel the need to lay or sit down like I do when I smoke regular weed, I actually felt motivated. Which was good because I had been procrastinating on some work I needed to get done.

“This tastes like a clove cigarillo had a baby with chai tea. Yum!”

So what’s in this balancing joint?

St. John’s Wort: Now this is a plant worth knowing about. It is often celebrated in natural healing circles as a great source of relief from depression, anxiety, PMS, menopause, seasonal affected disorder, viral infections, and smoking cessation. (Note: If you are taking medication for anxiety or depression, be sure to check with your doctor before using St. John’s Wort.)

Mullein: For centuries people have used mullein flower to help with coughs, congestion, bronchitis, constipation, asthma, pain, migraines, inflammation, gout, and sleep (to name a few). That’s a lot of anti-inflammatory and antiviral traits for one little flower to have!

Organic full spectrum hemp flower: Which contains cannabinoids including 70.0mg CBD, 115.08mg CBG, and of course, less than the federally legal limit of .3% THC.

Thanks to my deadlines, I was feeling stressed and anxious before smoking, but the herbal benefits of the mullein flower and St. John’s Wort played on my imbalance of negativity and helped me relax and focus.

ZZZ FOR CALM

Sometimes at night, I look at the clock and can’t believe how late it is because of how awake I feel. Depending on the weed I have around, smoking isn’t always a good thing because a strain with THC in it will have me turning up like it’s the middle of the day.

“I was able to slip into a much-needed state of deep sleep.”

Luckily, on an evening where my anxious little mind was wandering and barring me from achieving rest, I had a secret weapon: Miss Grass’ Calming CBD Herbs. I got into some cozy pajamas, opened up my adorable box of hemp CBD pre-rolls, and cracked a window.

A delicious medley of herbs presented itself to me as I inspected the list of ingredients. I’ve heard of drinking a cup of tea before bed, but smoking one? What’s in this blend anyway?

Skullcap: A perennial herb with cute little blue flowers native to China and America that is thought to reduce anxiety, help with insomnia and possess anti-inflammatory benefits. (Note: If you take blood-thinners, cholesterol-lowering medications, or painkillers, skullcap can interact with them. Please consult your doctor before use. Not for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.)

Lavender: You know lavender from aromatherapy and those little luggage sachets that your mom gives you for Christmas, and it is a helpful relaxation aid that’s been thought to assist with anxiety, skin health, hair loss, and improved memory.

Blue lotus: Often used in place of psychedelics, blue lotus is believed to be a possible anxiety reliever and potential aphrodisiac.

Blue vervain: Has been used to protect nerve cells, and is claimed to have antibacterial and antitumor properties.

Organic full-spectrum hemp flower: containing cannabinoids including 50.6 mg CBD, 83.2mg of CBG, and less than the federally legal limit of .3% THC.

As I lay in bed and slowed my breathing, I was able to focus clearly on muscles where I was holding unnecessary tension and slip into a much-needed state of deep sleep.

XXX FOR PLEASURE

Finally, we made it to the sexy one! Let me just start by saying that sometimes, if two people are smoking together, the vibe has already begun. (This same thinking also applies to one person, or three, I don't know your life!) These connected + inspired mini joints might add a little something-something to that special moment before the clothes come off (you can’t tell, but I’m winking).

“I felt as if I had just gotten out of an incredibly relaxing bath.”

This joint had me feeling the heaviest “body high” of the bunch, and stimulated me the most out of the Miss Grass CBD + Hemp offerings. I felt the same satisfaction as people seem to in movies when they light up a cigarette after they, you know...get down to business.

There was something vastly different about the flavor of this joint. Something appetizing. I followed my curiosity to the list of ingredients, and here’s what I found:

Damiana: An ancient yellow flower believed to have the effects of an aphrodisiac when the leaves are consumed.

Holy Basil: Popular in Ayurvedic medicine, holy basil is used for combating stress, stabilizing blood sugar, and helping lower high cholesterol.

Jasmine: Another aphrodisiac that could reduce anxiety and stress, and also improve breathing while combating insomnia. Jasmine is also thought to be particularly helpful to women in every phase of their reproductive cycle.

Rose: Rose in a joint adds a nice flavor, and also boasts a few health benefits such as mood enhancement, relief from depression, and aid to people trying to stop smoking tobacco.

Hibiscus: Helps to purify the blood and maintain cholesterol levels.

Organic full-spectrum hemp flower: containing cannabinoids including 50.6 mg CBD, 83.2mg of CBG, and less than the federally legal limit of .3% THC.

Without telling too much about my life, let me just say that this joint vibed me out in such a positive way. After I finished smoking it I felt as if I had just gotten out of an incredibly relaxing bath.

So in the end, on top of this being the cutest box of smokables you ever did see, each blend’s boasted botanicals did what they said they would and more. You really have to try these joints for yourself and share them with friends, family and lovers.

There are so many wonderful plants on Earth for us to try, and Miss Grass reminds us that we shouldn’t limit ourselves to just marijuana. So thank you, Miss Grass, for facilitating a different vibe to my regularly scheduled smoking routine that I plan to revisit again and again.
