Jolly Green Oil is a quickly rising US CBD company. They produce many different CBD products, but are they any good?

This review of JGO’s CBD product line will help you decide whether you should make the switch to using Jolly Green Oil’s top sellers.

If you are interested in learning more about cannabis doctors and accessing CBD oil in Australia, this article explains everything you need to know

Jolly Green Oil

Jolly Green Oil is a CBD brand based in New York. It produces a wide range of high quality CBD products including pods, vapes, gummies, and more. The brand uses CBD isolate in all of its products, making all of their CBD edibles and vapes free of THC.

If you’re interested in comparing this brand to others on the market, you can read our review of Down to Earth CBD oil here.

JGO CBD Oil Lab Testing

According to their website, all JGO CBD products contain an undetectable amount of THC, which means it should not cause you any trouble when it comes to taking a drug test.

The Jolly Green Oil site also states that its products are free from pesticides, residual solvents from the extraction process, and bacteria.

The site does not provide any certificates of analysis for its products, which could confirm the amount of THC and contaminants in their products. Batch lab results can be accessed by scanning a QR code on the packaging of all JGO products, however.

JGO CBD Extraction Method

Jolly Green Oil gets its CBD from organic hemp grown in the United Kingdom. The CBD is extracted using CO2, and then isolated using a process called winterisation.

The winterisation process involves soaking the extract with alcohol before freezing it. This results in a CBD oil that contains only trace amounts of terpenes and cannabinoids except CBD.[1]

JGO CBD Oil Reviews

JGO CBD Oil

4 bottles of JGO tinctures of different volumes

Jolly Green Oil combines CBD and MCT oil in 15 ml or 30 ml bottles. Bottles are sold with 4 different dosage options:

  • 250 mg CBD
  • 500 mg CBD
  • 1000 mg CBD
  • 1500 mg CBD

Medium-chain triglyceride oil, otherwise known as MCT oil, is a healthy form of fat that naturally occurs in coconut oil.

Studies suggest that MCT could help the body burn fat for energy more effectively. As a result, taking this CBD oil might help people who are trying to reduce their body fat or boost their metabolism.

Like other CBD oil products, it can be taken by placing a few drops under your tongue, where it will enter your bloodstream quickly to start having an effect rapidly after use.

As a CBD isolate suspended in a flavourless oil, this is a great option if you are looking for a versatile CBD oil that you can add to your food or drinks as well as take sublingually.

JGO CBD Vape Liquids

JGO's 4 cbd vape liquids with pack

Vaping e-liquids are among Jolly Green Oil’s most popular CBD products. JGO vape e-liquid is sold in 30ml bottles, with bottles available containing total dosages of:

  • 250 mg of CBD
  • 625 mg of CBD
  • 700 mg of CBD

JGO CBD pods use a vape carrier oil that consists of an 80/20 mixture of vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol. This is a fairly common VG/PG mix that provides a large amount of vapour with minimal throat irritation, resulting in a smooth but satisfyingly dense vaping experience. [2]

As a side note, both VG and PG are known carcinogens when heated beyond about 240 degrees Celsius. Even cheap pen vapes can exceed these temperatures, especially if they lack a temperature control mode. [3]

Vaping is healthier than smoking, but it is still unhealthy and a cancer risk.

As high VG vape liquids, JGO CBD vape liquids are best suited for direct-to-lung (DTL) vapouriser kits. When used in a mouth-to-lung (MTL) kit, it may clog your vape and cause coils to burn out faster than usual, resulting in a burnt taste.

MTL kits mimic the act of smoking, with the user drawing vapour into their mouth before breathing it into their lungs. These result in less throat irritation and a more controlled dosage.

DTL kits are designed for the user to draw vapour directly into their lungs, allowing for much larger amounts of vapour to be inhaled in a single draw.

The CBD e-liquid comes in four different flavours:

  • Berry Blast
  • Froot Loops
  • Honey
  • Watermelon Bomb

JGO CBD Cartridges

In addition to buying bottles of Jolly Green Oil’s e-liquid, you can also find it in single-use cartridges. JGO pods offer the same flavours as their bottled range of vape liquids, with the added convenience of a cartridge.

A disposable CBD cartridge is a more convenient way to vape than the inconvenient and often messy refilling and maintenance that comes with a vape kit with a refillable tank.

They are also compatible with small and inexpensive vape pen batteries. This makes them a great option for beginners to vaping who don’t want to splash out on an expensive vape kit.

Vaping cartridges can work out more costly in the long run though, as cartridges generally have a higher price tag than the same amount of liquid sold in a bottle.

JGO CBD Gummies

Jolly Green Oil also sells a wide range of CBD gummies for those looking for a tasty treat with the benefits of a hefty CBD dosage.

JGO gummy worms and other CBD gummies contain up to 50 mg of CBD per gummy, along with 10 mg of melatonin. This combination aims to deliver a potent relaxing effect, helping you get a better night’s rest.

JGO CBD gummies are sold in bags of 5, 10, 20, and 30 gummies each.

Jolly Green Oil CBD gummies are sold in a wide range of flavours, including:

  • Sour Gummy Bears
  • Blue Raspberry Puffs
  • Watermelon Slices
  • Peach Rings
  • Strawberries and Cream
  • Sour Watermelon Slices
  • Gummy Worms
  • Sour Gummy Worms

JGO Offers A Diverse Range Of CBD Products

Jolly Green Giant has CBD products in every form and flavour you could want. As a result, their product range is great if you are looking for variety. However, the inability to check lab reports before you buy could be cause for concern.
