Ingredient Snapshot: SōRSE Technology, in partnership with Yakima Chief Hops, a grower-owned hop supplier, has announced its newest product offering for brewers: Water-Soluble CBD Distillate.
With more than six generations of commercial farming knowledge, the Yakima Chief Hemp growers cultivate their hemp with the same quality best practices and consistency as their hops, due in part to the similarities between hops and hemp plants. Operating for more than 20 years, the hemp is processed using YCH’s extract facility under the same internationally-recognized quality standards as their hop products.
Using its patent-pending technology, SōRSE Technology has converted the distillate into a water-soluble 3% emulsion for seamless integration into functional beverages for the growing Beyond Beer sector.
Yakima Chief Hemp’s Water-Soluble CBD Distillate is classified as broad-spectrum and contains an array of minor cannabinoids, terpenes, and essential oils, which contributes to the product’s flavor profile. The new product offering allows brewers to expand their product line with CBD-enhanced beverages utilizing a one-step, “drop and go” solution directly into the brewing process.
