Wynk THC and CBD Infused Seltzers Arrive in Michigan

Fast-Acting, Microdose Beverages Provide a Better Way to Unwind

Wynk THC & Seltzer, the most widely distributed cannabis seltzer beverage in the United States, has announced availability throughout Michigan. Through an exclusive partnership with Ascend Wellness Holdings (“AWH”) (CSE: AAWH.U) (OTCQX: AAWH), Wynk’s delicious, microdose products will be available to recreational and medical consumers.

“Microdosing a THC and CBD blend is a great way to experience a relaxed feeling, without the more pronounced high associated with other consumption methods,” commented Casey Parzych, Co-Founder and President of Wynk. “Because Wynk is fast-acting, the consumption feels similar to enjoying alcohol-based hard seltzer, but without the super sweet flavor, alcohol, calories, or hangover.”

Featuring all-natural flavors of Juicy Mango, Lime Twist and Black Cherry Fizz, each 8.4 ounce can of Wynk has a 1:1 ratio of 2.5 milligrams of THC and CBD and delivers a light, relaxing buzz that is felt in under fifteen minutes and lasts for around ninety minutes.

“AWH is committed to expanding our offerings across all sectors of the cannabis industry, catering to consumer preferences and providing the finest products on the market,” said Frank Perullo, Co-Founder and President of Ascend Wellness Holdings. “Cannabis beverages are gaining major traction among consumers, making Wynk a great partner to introduce in an expanding market like Michigan. Our team is excited to add Wynk to our portfolio.”
