Zèle’s co-founder discovered a passion for soda pop at the age of 7. Two years later, he learned he was no longer allowed to drink them due to a health issue. Naturally, he responded by unearthing his great grandfather’s pharmacy textbook from a basement office and began to rapidly advance his soda pop efforts. Over the next 13 years, he mastered soda craft-brewing. Since legalization, he has also made radical advancements in cannabis infusion technology, creating full-spectrum cannabis beverages like no other.
FUTURISTIC CRAFT FACILITY
Our co-founder took the same passion for soda-making and applied it to every design detail in our facility. From crawling under machinery to digitally rendering the way each gear interlocks, his team built a facility that remained true to the sodas he created on his kitchen countertop.
Located in Edmonton, our state-of-the-art facility was meticulously designed by passionate craftspeople to decarb, extract, infuse, and produce craft-quality sodas all under one roof.
Craft-Brewed, not Mixed
In contrast, synthesized (mixed) sodas are made by re-creating flavour from various building blocks, all the trace elements are removed.
We harness nature’s marvel to carefully craft a balanced flavour profile like no other. It tastes so good, it can only be described as deliciously futuristic.
Our ingredient list will always be short and natural.
That’s it!
We carefully select the cultivars used in our craft sodas. Flavour-specific genetics are matched and balanced with the terpene profiles of the whole flower and our real fruit ingredients for optimal taste and effect.
We take well-crafted whole flower from select Canadian cultivators and put it through a very gentle ethanol extraction process. The extracted full-spectrum oil (FSO) is similar to a Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) that has been further optimized by ambient temperature, careful filtration, and high residence time to ensure full capture major and minor terpenes, flavonoids, trace compounds and other plant material.
The finished handbrewed soda syrup is then infused with full-spectrum extract that has been wrapped in flavour using our proprietary nanoencapsulation process, eliminating the bitter aftertaste. Cannabinoid stability is further enhanced by our recyclable glass bottle. This result is a stable, consistent, and great tasting beverage every time.
Other cannabis drinks are made with nanoemulsified distillate. This involves sonicating bitter tasting cannabis distillate that has lost trace plant elements into tiny particles. These particles are inherently sticky and tend to agglomerate around the aluminum can, resulting in a semi-stable and bitter tasting drink with an inconsistent experience.
Our sodas come in a recyclable glass bottle to ensure a deliciously consistent full-spectrum experience every time.
