The brand sources its non-GMO, organic hemp from US farms. Such hemp plants are sustainably grown, and no chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides are allowed in. The brand then uses the clean CO2 extraction method to strip CBD oil from the hemp surfaces.

Dope CBD is a legal, authorized grower and processor of American hemp sourced from various parts of the country.

Organic hemp sustainably and organically grown ensures no chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides interact with the raw materials or final products and also upholds soil conservation practices.
The brand employs the clean CO2 extraction method to isolate CBD oil from the hemp surfaces, and the resultant extracts are in full- and broad-spectrum formulations, guaranteeing a full entourage effect with and without the psychoactive THC. The CO2 extraction method is preferred in the industry for its safety and efficiency, especially because it isolates all the oil, cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids without unnecessarily attaching solvent contaminants to the extracts. Like most CBD brands, Dope CBD formulates its extracts with MCT oil to increase bioavailability.
The next stage in the manufacturing process is 3r party testing, a step Dope CBD executes to confirm its products’ CBD and THC potencies against the labels and confirm the absence or presence of standard contaminants.

Our Verdict
Dope CBD is an American CBD brand specializing in vape cartridges, topicals, capsules, and edibles with 20- 600 mg CBD concentrations and that cost $2.49- $60. We appreciated many things about the company, including its using non-GMO, organic hemp, and the clean CO2 extraction method to manufacture CBD products in a cGMP-compliant facility. Besides, it has an average price point of $0.08 per mg CBD which is below the market average, offers free shipping for orders worth $50 and above and a 30-day money-back guarantee, and diligently liaises with modern 3rd party labs to conduct lab tests, after which it posts the results on the respective product pages. Nonetheless, it has a few areas to improve to perform better in the hemp space, including the $50 free shipping threshold, which happens to be a bit expensive, and it lacks a centralized hub for posting all lab reports for easy viewership. Besides, it lacks isolate-based products and only limits itself to a few product lines, with the highest CBD concentration being 600 mg. Improving these areas will help the brand see higher heights in the hemp space.
