“We’ve dialed the strength back substantially, not because we can’t make it stronger, but just because people want to be able to drink more of it.” But alcohol absorbs through the digestive tract in a faster, much more predictable way than solid edibles–and so does whatever’s dissolved in that alcohol. Hence the precision-infused Green Dragon.

Traditional infusion in alcohol takes days or weeks, and extracts a broader spectrum of compounds from the plant — not just the more volatile molecules responsible for psychoactive effects and bright, pleasant flavors, but ones that dissolve over time and impart murky flavor and what some call a headachy effect.
