I try a lot of cannabis edibles. It’s my preferred format for the predictability, easy dosing, and because I love a little treat. Don’t get me wrong, nothing beats a perfectly rolled joint, but there’s something inherently more enjoyable to me in having edibles in my rotation.
A good edible should taste delicious (why would I compromise on flavor just for a buzz?), come on easy and gradually taper off, and include more than one cannabinoid. At least, that’s my preference.
Rare Cannabinoid Company ended up being one of those brands for me—the kind you don’t just try once, but want to keep within reach.
Who Is Rare Cannabinoid Company?
Rare Cannabinoid Company came out of Hawaii with a focus on building products around cannabinoids beyond the usual THC and CBD.
Instead of leaning entirely on THC or CBD, their formulas incorporate compounds like CBN, CBC, CBG, and CBDV—each chosen for a specific role in the experience.
That approach shows up in how their products feel. To me, that experience was well-rounded, soft, and offered both body and mind high.
They also put a heavy emphasis on testing, transparency, and cGMP manufacturing, which matters in a category where consistency can be hit or miss.
The pitch is simple: not “one cannabinoid does everything,” but “different cannabinoids do different things, use them accordingly.”
Product Breakdown: What I Actually Tried
I had the pick of the litter of their impressive product lineup, but I chose three products that I knew would fit into my daily (and evening) routine.
THC + CBC Mood Mints
These are the ones that surprised me the most.
Each THC + CBC mint delivers a microdose of 2.5mg THC alongside 2.5mg CBC and 12.5mg CBD, using a nano formulation that’s designed to hit faster than traditional edibles. On paper, it sounds subtle. In practice, it’s just enough.
I keep these in my purse and take them the way people take mints: after lunch, between errands, before doing something social. One gives a light lift. Two puts me right where I want to be.
The effect feels like taking a hit of a well-rolled joint and following it up with a perfect cup of coffee. A gentle lift that feels a little bit joyful and indulgent. There’s a noticeable mood shift, a little brightness, but no heaviness. You’re still fully functional, just slightly elevated in a way that makes everything feel easier.
I took a couple before a movie and had a blast. That’s kind of the sweet spot for these.
Flavor-wise, they land in that Altoids territory—firm, minty, not overly chalky. Easy to take, no weird cannabinoid aftertaste hanging around.
If you like to microdose, this is the kind of product you want to keep on you.

THC + CBC Mood Gummies
Same cannabinoid stack—THC, CBC, and CBD—but a different experience. This time, the ratios are doubled: 5:5:25.
Each Mood Gummy delivers a more traditional edible feel. The onset is slower than the mints, but the overall effect is stronger and more noticeable. This isn’t something I’d casually take while running errands unless I planned for it. Call me a lightweight.
The difference likely comes down to how your body processes it. Gummies tend to hit deeper, and these follow that pattern.
They’re well-made, good texture, solid flavor (lime and mint), no weird chewiness or artificial aftertaste. But the main thing is the shift in intensity.
If the mints are your “anytime” option, these are more of a “set the tone for the next few hours” edible.
Same ingredients, different lane.

THC + CBN Sleep Gummies
The sleep gummies are where the lineup really locks in.
Each gummy contains:
- 5mg THC
- 30mg CBN
- 10mg CBD
That’s a serious CBN dose, and you feel it.

CBN has always been my go-to for sleep, and this hits exactly how I want a nighttime edible to hit. Not a knockout, not disorienting, just a steady drop into rest.
You feel your body settle first, then your mind follows. It’s a clean wind-down instead of a forced shutdown. One gummy works for a normal night. Two is where I go when I really want to be out all night.
The CBD helps smooth everything, which I appreciated. It keeps the THC from tipping too far and rounds out the whole experience.
Flavor is huckleberry, texture is the ideal chew, and overall it feels like a product that was actually designed for sleep—not just labeled that way.
Where These Land
Some edibles are fun to try once. Others earn a spot in your routine. That’s the difference here.
The Mood Mints are easy, functional, and surprisingly effective for how light they are. The gummies bring more weight when you want it. And the sleep formula does exactly what it’s supposed to do, consistently.
More than anything, these feel intentional. The cannabinoid combinations aren’t random, and the effects reflect that. That’s what keeps something in rotation.
