2. What was New York's philosophy in developing a regulatory regime for CBD and other non-intoxicating hemp extracts?
3. Why did New York allow hemp farmers to sell into the regulated cannabis market, and has it been successful?

Chirag Vyas and Kevin Chipman partnered to create the brewery, St. Johns Brewers. These beverage industry experts have decided to take their talents into the world of Cannabis. They are introducing a line of Delta 8 or D8 seltzers. D8 is a compound derived from the hemp plant and therefore falls under hemp regulations versus cannabis or marijuana depending on the state that you're in. The creative minds behind DrinkCoolOut.com join us today to educate us on what exactly Delta 8 is and to share the origin story behind their brand.
