– INXS, New Sensations (OBX Formulator’s Remix)
Welcome to 2021! The future of cannabinoid products is bright due to the countless applications of pure, isolated minor cannabinoids, including CBG, CBN, CBC, THCV, and CBDV. The new cannabinoid consumer is looking for an exact, consistent experience to reliably target either a particular medical ailment, or to bring about a specific, desired effect. At OBX, we build formulations designed to provide different health and wellness benefits, combining minor cannabinoids in precise ratios, and adding terpenes, vitamins, and other functional active compounds.
The ability to play with the cannabinoid ratio “lever” is one of the most exciting and powerful tools formulators have, especially as new technologies enable the isolation of more and more new cannabinoids.
