There are virtually countless ways to consume CBD. The market is full to the brim with oils, gummies, salves, balms, capsules, ice creams, coffees — you name it, they make it. But for those with an eye for the cutting edge technology, the CBD market has been slow to advance. That’s where Omura comes in. The California-based company has developed a vaporizer-style device for consuming full-spectrum, whole-flower hemp CBD. It works by heating the flower — without burning it — to a temperature that extracts the cannabinoids and terpenes, so you can taste the flower with each inhale without any char or burning flavors. Each Omura stick is fully compostable and pre-dosed, simply insert a stick into the device and turn it on. The Omura will vibrate when it’s turned on, when the session is ready to begin and then again when the session is finished and the device turns off. Plus right now, you can get an additional pack of CBD for free through the end of May by using the code GearPatrol.
