Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE:LXX,OTCQB:LXRP) (the “Company” or “Lexaria”), a drug delivery platform innovator, announces that it has entered a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Hill Street Beverage Co. to license DehydraTECHTM, on a semi exclusive basis to produce a line of cannabis infused alcohol-free beers and wines for Canadian distribution, following regulatory approval.
Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE:LXX,OTCQB:LXRP) (the “Company” or “Lexaria”), a drug delivery platform innovator, announces that it has entered a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Hill Street Beverage Co. to license DehydraTECHTM, on a semi exclusive basis to produce a line of cannabis infused alcohol-free beers and wines for Canadian distribution, following regulatory approval. The LOI is currently non-binding and is subject to the parties entering into a definitive binding agreement, which is expected to occur in the latter part of 2018.
Lexaria has already lab-tested Hill Street’s alcohol-free red and white wines to formulate CBD wines from multi-spectrum hemp oil, and such tests show virtually zero unwanted cannabis taste or odour. Although DehydraTECH(TM) functions well with cannabis isolates and distillates, Lexaria’s technology particularly excels with multi-spectrum oil inputs for more original experiences.
Hill Street CEO Terry Donnelly stated, “Having tasted our wines after Lexaria’s infusion process, we found all of the complexity and richness of our beverages remains intact, and virtually indistinguishable when comparing the infused products to the originals in blind taste and aroma tests. Once we experienced the end result, the decision to partner with Lexaria became very easy.”
Lexaria’s beverage formulation adaptations use patented technology to act quickly, taste great, and deliver predictable experiences that dissipate more quickly than many other cannabinoid edible products.
Current legislation does not permit the manufacture and sale of cannabis infused products in Canada. Legislation to allow the sale of these products is projected to occur by the summer of 2019. Hill Street is currently applying for appropriate licenses to permit the production and sale of cannabis infused beverages in Canada, with the view of having infused products available for sale once the regulations permit.
