cbdMD CBD Oil Tincture Drops 3,000mg Orange Flavor Product Review

cbdMD’s products straddle the line between full-spectrum CBD oil and isolate-based CBD extracts. The company is part of a growing movement that seeks to provide the benefits of a varied cannabinoid profile without the risk of THC consumption.

The scientists at cbdMD do this by combining pure CBD isolate with a broad-spectrum blend. This blend includes numerous supplemental ingredients like terpenes, amino acids, and essential oils. Various formulas may include B-caryophyllene, Guaiol, A-bisabolol, isopulegol, and eucalyptol to enhance CBD’s effectiveness. This way, cbdMD can provide the ‘Entourage Effect’ benefits without the risk of THC contamination.

Smell:

• Upon opening a bottle of cbdMD’s CBD Oil Tincture Drops, we noted a gentle, sweet, softly tangy orange scent, similar to orange candy (like those sugared fruit slice gummies in giant jars at candy shops).  It’s not unpleasant, but it’s not great either — just middle-of-the-road orange flavor, closer to orange juice than the zest we were expecting. We’ll see how it tastes.

Taste:

• The flavor of the oil is pleasantly understated, with more of a zesty component than we anticipated based on the scent.  It still tastes of orange candy in that it doesn’t taste entirely natural, per se (compared to, say, an extract derived from the zest alone, the orangiest part of the orange that imparts the most authentic flavor).  We do not hate it, but it isn’t our favorite flavor, either — we think that the berry is the standout of the options available from cbdMD.

Consistency:

• First, we need to point out the brand’s extraordinary packaging decision: cbdMD nailed it by putting this CBD oil in a childproof bottle.  While it’s not possible to overdose on CBD, it is still medicine, and we believe that as such, it should be responsibly packaged.  We applaud cbdMD for this packaging decision, and we hope to see more providers follow suit in the near future.

  We loved that concept from a dosing convenience perspective. It allows the consumer to fine-tune their CBD consumption in a precise, consistent manner, and we wish it were consistent across all bottles (mainly because it seems most applicable for higher dosage strengths). That said, we noticed that the dropper included in this product was unmarked, unlike the 300 mg and 750mg droppers that were marked off in .25 mL increments. Perhaps it was unintended, but it’s something we felt was worth noting.

  Now, to the oil itself:  it’s clear and free-flowing, with a very subtle warm, ambery tint to it — it’s barely detectable, but it will stain fabrics because of its oily composition, so be mindful when dosing.  It draws up quickly into the dropper for dosing and doesn’t adhere to the mucosa of the mouth when consumed, minimizing the aftertaste and preventing the flavored burps commonly associated with some CBD oils (we are not fond of revisiting our CBD dose that way).

True to most consumable CBD products, we felt the effects of this CBD oil anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes after dosing, depending on our individual compositions and what/how recently we’d eaten that day.  At this dose (100 mg per mL dose), we felt relief from even severe symptoms throughout the day — up to 10 hours for some of us, with an average period of relief lasting from 7-8 hours.

This product was effective against severe pain and inflammation and imparted a pronounced improvement in the mood — and a little drowsiness in some of our consumers used to lower doses.  We noticed a reduction in symptoms of anxiety, including racing thoughts, tension, restlessness, and the gastrointestinal unrest often associated with the condition.

These benefits extended to social situations as well for those of us with social anxiety — we felt more at ease, even in crowds, and felt less nervousness and associated negative thoughts.  If you have the condition, you’re likely familiar with these thought cycles: worrying that everyone is judging you or dislikes you, finds you annoying, or is pitying you. While we recommend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help redirect these thoughts, CBD can make a measurable difference in the frequency and severity of these thoughts in triggering situations.

All in all, we like this CBD oil for a long-lasting “maintenance dose” of CBD to alleviate symptoms throughout the day.  This dosage strength was strong enough for each of our testers to feel lasting, complete relief from symptoms.  That said, if you’re using CBD to aggressively treat an illness like cancer or MS, you may need to take higher doses to manage your condition effectively.

If this is you, don’t worry — CBD dosing is not an exact science, and it can take some time to find what works for you.  Don’t be afraid to experiment, and do some research to point you in the right direction.  Check out our resources to read more about CBD dosing, choosing the right products, and replacing your current pharmaceutical regimen with beneficial cannabinoids like CBD.

You could consume this product in larger quantities or more frequently throughout the day to alleviate your symptoms, but you could also purchase a stronger dosage strength, which is more efficient from both a product conservation and cost-saving perspective — and cbdMD has exceedingly high dosage strengths available — up to 7500 mg per ounce (250 mg per mL dose).

We love this CBD oil as a systemic dose of CBD for all-day, full-body relief, but it takes a considerable amount of time to kick in due to its absorption through the digestive tract.  For fast-acting relief, we suggest smoking or vaping a bowl of organic hemp flower, or vaping CBD oil.  You could also dab 99.9% pure CBD isolate for intensive, instantaneous relief from even severe symptoms.

If you need localized relief for muscle soreness, joint pain, stiffness, or inflammation, try a roll-on pain freeze or CBD cream to reduce inflammation and pain at the site while your systemic dose works from within, providing total, targeted pain relief.

Each 30 mL bottle (1 fluid ounce) contains 3000 mg of organic, US-grown CBD, or 100 mg per 1 mL dose.  At $149.99 per bottle, this works out to a per-milligram price of just shy of $0.05, which is honestly wonderful, especially as far as organic, sustainably grown, independently tested oral CBD products go.  This oil is definitely on the affordable end of the spectrum of comparable products, which we like, and the per-milligram price continues to decrease even more at higher dosage strengths.

Next to competing products of comparable quality and composition, we think this CBD oil stands its ground.  It’s flavorful, affordable, organic, non-GMO, US grown and processed, gluten-free, and vegan, making it accessible to a varied customer base.  The product is manufactured according to sustainable conditions and is responsibly formulated and batch-tested by an independent laboratory to ensure quality.  This oil meets our CBD Buyer’s Guide criteria for quality, purity, and potency.
