Cannabidiol, colloquially known as CBD, boasts a variety of health benefits, which have made it increasingly popular over the last several years. If you want to explore the benefits of CBD, the first step will be to decide which brand best suits your needs. With the rising demand for CBD, many brands have entered the space during the last few years, making it challenging for CBD beginners to pick a brand that offers effective products they can trust. Below, we’ve outlined six brands with a proven track record and award-winning products to kickstart your journey.
3CHI tops the list for all the right reasons. This brand achieved some huge milestones in 2021. To start with, 3CHI was awarded the best HHC Disposable Vape in 2021. The brand has launched a series of new products in 2021 among which Delta 8 deserves a special mention. It is the new refined production methods for Delta 8 that brought positive attention to the brand. The process is used to create a more refined and pure form of oil with a higher concentration of Delta 8 and very few unknowns. This also made the production of Delta 8 more uniform and fully compliant.
The new range of 3CHI products includes Delta 8 THC edible treats and baked goods and disposable vapes, and HHC, THCO, Delta 6a10a, Delta 10, and THCv products. Besides introducing this quality line of products, 3CHI also entered into a partnership with ACS Labs and Blockticity to launch the first national hemp client Certificate of Analysis (COA) as a non-fungible token (NFT).
- MOONWLKR
MOONWLKR is a trusted name in the CBD space for offering the highest quality hemp-based products at a competitive price. The brand has been a leader in Delta 8 with an ever-growing customer base and has paved the way for other cannabinoids such as HHC, CBN, and CBG. Since its inception, the brand has focused on pushing the limits of hemp through new product launches and strategic partnerships.
MOONWLKR’s pursuit of introducing customers to cannabinoids that produce results they can feel is most evident in their full-spectrum gummies, Zkittles, which contain the full range of compounds present in the hemp plant, including THC. Sourced from 100% legal USA hemp and third-party lab tested for safety and potency, their Zkittles gummies contain 25mg of CBD + 5mg THC per piece.
HHC is their most recent debut, and they are constantly inventing. The product took months to create and is reported to deliver a more energetic high, equivalent to a Sativa, vs Delta 8, which is commonly used to induce relaxation. There’s lots more to look forward to from MOONWLKR, so keep a close eye on them!

Associated Hemp will continue to grow its line of products and offerings such as monthly subscriptions to meet the growing demand for CBD for a variety of needs.
After helping to set the standard for CBD products with their launch in 2015, Koi CBD claimed the limelight in 2021 with the launch of its new cannabinoid formulations to help people benefit from the many compounds of hemp. This new alternative cannabinoid line of products expanded their range on the Delta-8 THC product line.
