Charlotte’s Web Review

August 22, 2019

Overview

In 2013, Charlotte’s Web was founded by the seven Stanley brothers. The brothers are leaders in the cannabis industry and respected growers. The company has quickly become a major CBD provider.  

Boulder, Colorado is the headquarters of Charlotte’s Web. To understand the importance of Charlotte’s Web we need to look at the history of the Stanley brothers who founded the company. Josh, Joel, Jon, Jordan, Jesse, Jared, and Austin are respected cannabis growers who optimize strains. In 2012, they worked together to develop the genetics for  Charlotte’s Web which is a non-psychoactive hemp plant. The  brothers achieved global media recognition when the CBD gathered from the plant eased the virtually non-stop seizures experienced by a small child, Charlotte Figi.

Who are Charlotte’s Web Products Good for? 

Charlotte’s Web targets individuals who want to live a healthy lifestyle and feel their best. The company even offers a full line of CBD canine products for man’s best friend.

Materials, sourcing, and testing

All of the hemp that goes into Charlotte’s Web is grown organically and under the sun in fields within Colorado. The hemp is harvested and processed with CO or alcohol extraction methods to ensure purity. None of the products offered by Charlotte’s Web CBD contain more than 0.3% THC. However, they are all full-spectrum and brimming with terpenes, cannabinoids, and flavonoids. The products offered by Charlotte’s Web CBD have GMP certification, are organic, vegan-friendly, and gluten-free. 

Charlotte’s Web extraction process

Charlotte’s Web CBD is extracted from hemp plants using CO2 extraction. The extraction process does not rely on harsh solvents. It renders a very pure and natural product that is free of any unwanted chemicals. The company also has CBD products that have been extracted using alcohol. Its flagship is a 50mg full spectrum oil that has been extracted via alcohol extraction. 

Flavor and appearance 

Many people do not like the taste of CBD oil or other products with hemp extract. Luckily, Charlotte’s Web offers a variety of flavors such as mint orange, lemon, or mint chocolate to make its products more palatable. The oils tend to be translucent in appearance. 

Charlotte’s Web certifications

The company possesses a USDA Organic Certification. In addition, its facility is an FDA-registered facility that follows the FDA’s Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) protocols. The company also went one step further by willingly applying for what is known as a third-party GMP certification which they were granted after receiving a respectable 98.9% audit score. It is also certified through the US Hemp Authority. 

Third-Party laboratory testing

All of Charlotte’s Web CBD products go through extensive third-party laboratory testing. We would like for the lab results for Charlotte’s Web’s products to be more readily available to the public. However, the company does not publish its results online for the public. Only customers are granted access to the lab results of the products that they purchase. Once you receive your CBD product, you can use the number printed on the bottle along with the information on the shipping label to find your product’s batch results online.
