Acreage Holdings, Inc. has launched The Botanist THC-infused gummies in New York.

The gummies are available in a 10-pack format in three fruit flavors and ratios, including Red Raspberry (10 mg THC), Peach Nectarine (5:1 CBD:THC) and Mandarin Orange (1:1 THC:CBD). They’re available now at The Botanist dispensaries in Farmingdale, Queens, Middletown and Buffalo, and will soon be available at various partner dispensaries across New York.

New York follows Illinois, Massachusetts, Maine and Ohio as the fifth Acreage market to offerThe Botanist gummies.

“We are delighted to bring our well-crafted and delicious gummies to the Empire State,” said Acreage CEO and Chairman Dennis Curran. “As the market here rolls out, our latest trio of gummies adds an all-natural, premium edible to the diverse collection of experiences available to New York residents. Our gummies stand out because of their rich taste, organic ingredients and consistent balance of THC and CBD ratios. Whether it's a seasoned cannabis consumer looking to try something new or a canna-curious consumer eager to embark on their first cannabis journey, our Peach Nectarine, Mandarin Orange and Red Raspberry gummies offer a premium experience for all.”

The adult-use market in New York continues to roll out, with an additional 13 store openings bringing the state’s adult-use retail footprint to 37 dispensaries. Additionally, on Dec. 8, six registered organizations including Acreage subsidiary NYCanna received regulatory approval from the New York Cannabis Control Board to transition to adult-use operations and enter the adult-use market.

“We are thrilled with recent legislative traction across our strategically established core footprint,” Curran said. “We built Acreage by carefully curating our strong consumer brands and products across the markets we believe have the best potential for long-term growth. Our success at establishing ourselves in developing adult-use states such as Connecticut and New Jersey will serve as our roadmap as new adult-use markets come online. As we navigate through this new regulatory landscape, we're well positioned to leverage our solid foundation and pave the way for exciting developments ahead.”
