Potli Review

Disclaimer — don’t let the low rating fool you! According to our methodology, yes, technically Potli only gets two badges. But don’t let that deter you from scoring one of their amazing CBD-infused culinary items for sale in California and Las Vegas. Potli’s ingredients are the cream of the crop, and it truly doesn’t get much more sustainable or mindful than these two ladies who know what they’re doing in the kitchen (and with their cannabis, too!).

Potli accurately describes themselves as the ‘premier cannabis-infused kitchen pantry.’ The cannabis culinary brand (yes, their CBD products contain THC) was founded by two BFFs with an original idea to make CBD honey for a relative with asthma who was turned off by the negative connotations of cannabis. The two wanted to negate that stigma with impeccably sourced ingredients, an eye on sustainability, and accessible CBD edibles that could merge the daily wellness regimen with the daily cooking routine.

And boy, did they nail it!

Potli calls their CBD honey, olive oil, and chili oil ‘ingredients for the elevated life.’ They exclusively use local honey from the property of one of the founders and other hyper-local ingredients to reduce their carbon footprint and of course, make excellent edibles. The raw CBD honey from wildflowers comes in two infusions: Going Up (THC dominant) and Coming Down (CBD dominant). Their cold-pressed olive oil infusion is called Centered, with an equal ratio of CBD to THCa. And finally, their chili oil, like the honey, comes in Going Up or Coming Down formulations.

Like some of the other high-quality cannabis vendors whose products contain THC, Potli does not post tests for their CBD online, but claims they do test with a third party. We also could not verify their source (with their ethos, we bet it’s California) nor extraction method. This is partly why they rank so low.

We are in love with the recipes on the Potli blog: CBD snacks, desserts, and teas, oh my! They’re elegant but awesomely simple and incorporate the pure Potli offerings. To boot, Potli’s product packaging is designed to be reusable, and the brand’s localized business model and culinary treats have earned them nods in Bon Appetit, Vanity Fair, Elle… the list goes on.

Potli has a couple of cannabis products coming soon that have earned them the Innovation Badge, and we cannot wait to try! The first is a CBD-infused apple cider vinegar, full of probiotics and cannabinoid goodness, and the second is a class of cannabis condiments. CBD veterans and newbs, culinary snobs, and everyone in between love Potli, and we do too!

Bottom Line – Potli has high-quality CBD culinary items currently only available for sale at retail locations in California and Las Vegas (THC content). They technically rank low with our methodology, but we believe they are a high-quality, mindful, and innovative CBD brand.
