If there was ever a Willy Wonka of the cannabis industry, it would be the Kiva company. What started out as a signature decadent cannabis chocolate bar collection, has now turned into a magical lineup of candy-like cannabis edibles.
So, enter the world of your wildest imagination and the magical edible making factory, of Kiva. Keep reading to take a journey into the sweet side of weed by learning more about Kiva history, its owners, and most crave-worthy goods.
Kiva chocolate was the love child of a couple who loved cannabis themselves, and set out to craft a premium edible for an elevated experience. Far from the old pot brownies of the past, Scott Palmer and Kristi Palmer were successful in reaching their goals soon after visiting a local chocolatier and making the first Kiva bars right in their own home kitchen.
At the time, of course, they had no idea they would be setting the bar for what’s considered the most exceptional edible on the market today. Since then, the couple hasn’t quit chasing their dreams and has recently launched four other edible product collections and expanded into eight other states across the US and Canada, too.
The brand prides itself on even dosage, product consistency, and using only the finest ingredients for each bite of sweetness they produce. Reaching nearly $250 million in sales in 2022 and winning over celebs like Joe Jonas and Chelsea Handler, it seems Kiva’s recipe for success is working.
The Kiva company quickly reached the status of being the gold standard of cannabis edibles with its signature chocolate. So, it’s no surprise they’re now expanding into elevating other familiar candies. Next, let’s get to know Kiva chocolate, Kiva gummies, and the brand’s growing line of sweet treats.
Every Kiva product is thoughtfully crafted, from the high-quality flower used for extraction, to artisanal, vegan ingredients, and even strain-specific live-resin goodies, too. Referred to by some as the ‘Whole Foods’ of cannabis edibles, with each new product the brand strives to deliver on its premium reputation.
So, enough with all the Kiva history – let’s get into the good stuff and learn more about each product line you can try.
If you’ve ever dreamt or wished for a unique Chocolate… Kiva’s got you. The brand is not only well-known for its smooth, consistent THC delivery but its the *chefs kiss* of flavor combinations, as well, including:
And of course, classics like Milk Chocolate and Dark Chocolate for those who are less adventurous in flavor. The chocolates use sustainably-sourced cacao, and all-natural flavors and ingredients, for an indulgent experience you can feel good about, too.
Kiva Gummies come to us through their Lost Farms collection and offer just as many taste combinations as their chocolate. Serving up nothing but the best, the gummies are infused with live resin, which is the cream of the crop when it comes to extracts and is rich in cannabis compounds, and terpenes for a robust buzz. The strain-specific live resin also means you’ll know what to expect as for effects, making the edible experience that much more approachable by a wide variety of consumers.
Now, back to taste – here are some of the most drool-worthy flavors to try from Kiva.
Lost Farm also just recently debuted their strain-specific live resin infused fruit chew, the adult-version of the thirst-quenching Starburst, which you can pick up in summer-worthy natural flavors like Strawberry, and Lemonade.
The Camino line features Kiva gummies that have an invigorating, sour twist. They come contained in a handy tin that features fun and funky designs that, alone, will brighten any day. The added bonus is that the Camino gummies are vegan-friendly and come in varying effects types to help decide what time of day you should indulge, which include –
With fine-tuned ratios of CBD:THC and just the right MG’s, Kiva’s Caminos allows you to individually curate the type of buzz you’re seeking with a refreshing taste.
As microdosing and health-conscious diets become more and more popular, cannabis edibles seem out of reach for these unique niche groups. Especially since many are high in sugar and can be quite potent in THC. Petra is the Kiva company’s answer to these emerging trends, and are small mint like bites to enjoy throughout the day.
Like the Camino line, Petra mints are intentionally crafted to contain minor cannabinoids like CBN and individual CBD:THC ratios for specifically desired effects. With the small bites varying from 2 – 2.5 MG, they’re also ideal for those who benefit from microdoses. True to Kiva fashion, they too come in a variety of flavors, like Blackberry, Moroccan Mint, Pineapple and more.
Last but not least, is Kiva’s Terra Bites, which the brand describes as ‘decadent’ and ‘discreet’. The small bon-bon like chocolates are made with the same artisanal and natural ingredients for rich, robust flavors. At 5 mg per ball, you can have one, or indulge in more to reach the desired potency you’re seeking. It might be hard to stop popping ’em once you get started, with flavors like Sea Salt Caramel, Milk and Cookies, and Espresso, amongst others.
