Initial Thoughts

It’s difficult to avoid being impressed by the mark Pure Hemp Botanicals has had on the CBD oil industry. PHB is on a mission to make quality, pure CBD products more accessible, while serving the planet at the same time.

Pure Hemp Botanicals has made it onto quite a few top 10 review sites and has proven a popular choice for CBD enthusiasts. It’s a pleasure to find a company that is so committed to their values and consistently provides quality products. We were excited to do a Pure Hemp Botanicals CBD oil review.

Taste (6.5 out of 10)

We chose the chocolate flavored CBD mints (strawberry-mango flavor is also offered). If you’re looking to satisfy a chocolate urge, the taste isn’t exactly what you’d hope for. But it was decently chocolate-like in the same way that a protein shake approximates chocolate. The more mints we had, the most we got used to the taste. It’s not unpleasant, just unexpected to start. The hemp taste typical of CBD oils was downplayed and masked by the chocolate flavoring, making this an easy and pleasant method of quickly administering some CBD.

Delivery (8.5 out of 10)

Ingesting CBD in the form of mints makes for an easy, no-mess experience. If you’re looking for something you can pop on-the-go, this product will do the trick. Dosage can be controlled in increments of 10 mg per mint, making it simple to zone in on your preferred dose. The PHB website claims faster action than oils, as the CBD is absorbed directly through the mucous membranes under the tongue. Based on our review, we couldn’t find a reason to disagree. The mints were quick to dissolve. The only downfall on delivery is that dialing up a larger dose requires more mints than you would normally eat.

Potency (7.0 out of 10)

Dosage can be regulated by the number of mints eaten, making this a fairly straightforward task of zoning in on the right potency. One mint isn’t going to do much for you, but you can quickly hone in on your desired potency level. We attempted to approximate the dosage we have been using for our CBD oil reviews, and felt that the potency of the mints compared well with that of the oils. The main knock on potency is that one mint (unlike many CBD edibles) is only 10 mg. Again, nothing wrong with the product, but you’re going to ingest more mints than necessary.

Effect (7.0 out of 10)

The effect is entirely dependent on the number of mints you chew. So, the 7.0 rating here is really a middle ground between us acknowledging that one mint will not be enough (in our opinion) and the ease of getting to the desired effect with more mints. We felt the effects of the mints soon after taking them, although it is difficult to quantify whether or not the CBD mints produced a faster effect than oils. We are inclined to take PHB at their word that this is a quicker means to getting the job done. In any case, the effects were as hoped for, and we would recommend these mints as a good choice for those who don’t want to mess with oils.

Price (7.0 out of 10)

Pure Hemp Botanicals mints are priced on par with CBD oils in a comparison of milligrams per bottle. One bottle has 25 mints containing 10 mg each, for a total of 250 mg’s. Priced at $24.95, that’s about $.10/mg, which puts this product in the middle of the expected price range for CBD products.

Initial Thoughts

CBD edibles in a mint form – what’s not to like? As we have found with most CBD suppliers, the Pure Hemp Botanicals (PHB) website makes it clear that they are serious about quality and health, in addition to making a convenient product. There is lots of good information and lab results are available for any product that you buy from PHB and we decided to start with their mints.

Company Information

Pure Hemp Botanicals Background Info

Pure Hemp Botanicals offers full spectrum and broad spectrum, vegan, non-GMO, and gluten free guarantees on a wide variety of products. We reviewed the Pure Balance full spectrum hemp extract tincture. This same tincture is available as a broad spectrum product.

We like it when CBD companies offer a choice between full spectrum and broad spectrum CBD products.  A full spectrum oil offers the entire range of beneficial compounds found in hemp, including trace amounts of THC. Broad spectrum offers all the same compounds except THC, for those who prefer to have none.

If you’re confused about the difference between hemp extract and CBD, here’s a brief explanation. CBD oil is produced using the stalks, leaves, and flowers of the plant. Hemp extract comes from the seeds. The extract doesn’t contain any CBD, but it is believed to have other amazing benefits.

The Pure Balance Hemp Extract Tincture contains both the hemp extract oil and the CBD oil. This means you’re getting the benefits of hemp along with the effect from the maximum legal amount of trace cannabinoids.

Industry leading products

Pure Hemp Botanicals is the primary brand under the flag of Anthology Brands. This hemp company specializes in businesses with high quality products, which helps give Pure Hemp Botanicals a stamp of authenticity. The company includes two additional brands; Strainz and Hemptealicious.

Pure Hemp Botanicals is so highly regarded that it is regularly contracted to produce white-label products for other major brands. Those companies then sell the products under their own labels.

A Wide Variety of Products

It turns out the possibilities for Hemp and CBD products are practically limitless. Whether you want to ingest your CBD or apply it externally, Pure Hemp Botanicals has you covered with various products:

  • Tinctures 
  • Vegan softgels
  • Gummies
  • Body care
  • Pet productss 
  • Immune support
  • Mints

So you get access to an array of options, from drinking tea to applying body lotion. Pure Hemp Botanicals also has several categories of products: Pure Relief, Pure Sleep, Pure Balance, Pure Pets, and Pure Immune. 

The Pure Relief line of products includes cooling gels and warming balms, which could be handy for muscle soreness and back aches. Pure Sleep integrates melatonin to improve sleep quality, and Pure Balance “supports whole-body balance and provides lasting results.” The range of products for pets allows you to customize for pet size. You may be surprised by the possible benefits of CBD oil for pets. 

All Pure Hemp Botanicals products are vegan, cruelty-free and non-GMO. The gummies even use carnauba wax instead of gelatin. If you’re looking for more ways to integrate CBD products into your everyday life, you’ll be able to find it at Pure Hemp Botanicals.

Access to Lab Results

Pure Hemp Botanicals shows each oil’s lab test results in a QR code on every bottle. This is a great display of its commitment to integrity and openness. These third-party lab results come from testing each product for their hemp extract potency and cannabinoid profile. The QR code makes it easy to check your product’s lab results and confirm the quality of your PHB products.

The Pure Hemp Botanicals website gives helpful information on how to read your QR code. You can learn exactly how your product was tested and what its results were. It’s comforting to find a company where you know what you see is what you’re getting. All these features make it easy to trust Pure Hemp Botanical’s claims about the quality and effectiveness of its products.

A Mission of Compassion

Pure Hemp Botanicals has an excellent reputation in the CBD world. It is known for its pure quality oils and commitment to a mission of “compassion in action”. PHB’s desire for compassion includes the planet and anything that lives here, which is why its products are never animal tested and never use animal ingredients. 

This company also holds high standards for its business practices and employee treatment. The goal is to spread that compassion through the use of hemp cannabis plants in its products. 

Accountability is at the top of Pure Hemp Botanical’s list of priorities. This includes a pledge to use only organic hemp to guarantee product purity and effectiveness. This company also follows through with manufacturing partners, ensuring that its guidelines are met at all levels of production. Charity work is prioritized, with 1% of total proceeds going to Mercy for Animals.

On top of admirable commitment to its mission, Pure Hemp Botanicals really makes the effort to educate its customer about Hemp products. The PHB website offers education on different aspects of hemp and CBD and how they work in our bodies.

If you decide to become a lifetime customer, the Pure Rewards program offers points for purchases that translate into store credit later on.
