Dixie Botanicals Review

Written by Cathy Rozyczko — Edited by Jason Brett on February 9, 2021

Dixie Botanicals obviously caters to the more active CBD users with their targeted branding. It’s a good move, considering CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties and balancing effects are great for both pre- and post-workout supplementation. But whether you’re a workout nut or just on the hunt for some CBD goodness, Dixie Botanicals has something for everyone.

Dixie Botanicals is older than most of the CBD vendors we see; the brand launched in 2012 under parent company Medical Marijuana, Inc. (Note: no Dixie Botanicals CBD products contain THC above the federal limit) While we gave Dixie Botanicals the Innovation Badge for their awesome CBD energy chews, their parent company is the true innovator. Medical Marijuana, Inc. was the first publicly traded U.S. cannabis company, and they claim to have developed the world’s first legal supply of CBD. These are just a couple of their many trailblazing moves in the CBD space.

Getting back to Dixie Botanicals, the brand easily gets the Quality Badge with their clean sourcing and processing. The company gets their CBD oil from non-GMO hemp grown sans pesticides and herbicides in the Netherlands. Said hemp is then processed via CO2 extraction before it is formulated into their versatile CBD products.

Dixie Botanicals claims to test at three stages of production: after extraction, after export, and after product formulation. The problem is, they don’t post any of their results for potency or contaminants online. It’s the only thing stopping the brand from a perfect score with us.

The Dixie Botanicals CBD catalog boasts a great assortment of isolate and full spectrum options. “From professionals to weekend warriors,” there’s something for everybody here:

• CBD oil tinctures (full spectrum or isolate)
• CBD isolate powder
• CBD gel capsules
• CBD gummies – These are made with CBD isolate, but we are unable to verify whether or not the colors and flavors are natural.
• CBD Kicks – This is our favorite product of the bunch, mostly because we haven’t come across anything else like it. The Kicks are bite-sized CBD chews aimed at giving you a little pep in your step; they’re packed with energizing B vitamins. You can choose the caffeine variety, or if you’re sensitive to the caffeinated stuff, they make a caffeine-free option with D3 instead. These are the perfect antidote to the 3 pm crash, and we love that we can opt-out of caffeine while still getting clean energy.
• CBD sunscreen- It’s water-resistant, but it’s not reef safe. Common sunscreen synthetics are lurking, like EDTA, dimethicone, PEG-100 stearate, and phenoxyethanol.
• CBD balm (all-natural!)
• CBD vape oil
• CBD vape cartridge
• CBD vaporizers

Sure, the line isn’t 100% all-natural, but many of the CBD products are. Overall, we think Dixie Botanicals is doing a great job when it comes to quality… and charity too! The brand supports ECHO, a nonprofit that provides donations and financial assistance to families that need CBD but cannot afford it.

Our only qualm with Dixie Botanicals is a lack of online test results. We hope they get on this, stat.

Bottom Line – Dixie Botanicals has a high-quality line of both CBD isolate and full spectrum products. The only thing stopping them from a perfect score is publishing independent lab results.
