A few of Koi CBD’s offerings stand out when it comes to innovation, including its CBD Spray for Pets and its CBD Soft Gummies. We’ll break down these products and the rest of its lineup below.

Where Does Koi
CBD Source Its Hemp?
According to Koi CBD’s customer service
team and videos on its YouTube channel, the company sources all of its hemp
from Colorado, Kentucky, and Oklahoma.
From its third-party test results, we know that its hemp is free of pesticides, solvents, heavy metals, and other harmful contaminants. This is a huge plus.

Koi Naturals are broad-spectrum CBD tinctures that can be taken sublingually. They come in six distinct flavors, two bottle sizes, and six different CBD strengths. Koi’s website classifies these tinctures as full-spectrum, yet they have 0% THC — so it’s more appropriate to call them broad-spectrum.
Flavor Options
- Natural (Unflavored)
- Lemon-lime
- Spearmint
- Orange
- Peppermint
- Strawberry
Tinctures are one of Koi’s most popular products because they’re made with real ingredients like coconut oil and natural flavor extracts. Also, cannabinoids like CBD, CBC, CBN, CBG, and hemp plant terpenes, contribute to the entourage effect.
Key Ingredients
- Koi PRIZM™ proprietary CBD oil blend
- Coconut oil
- Natural flavor extracts

This is a general-purpose hand and body lotion infused with CBD hemp extract. With 200 mg of CBD per 125 mL bottle, the potency of this lotion is very low — 1.6 mg/mL. Therefore, it shouldn’t be relied upon as a therapeutic application. However, it still works great as a general-purpose lotion.

- Pink Grapefruit
Key Ingredients
- Organic aloe

What Does Koi CBD
Do Well?
1. Diverse
Product Selection
Koi CBD offers customers several types of CBD products to choose from. Both the vape juices and CBD tinctures come in many different flavors and concentrations. Plus, the flavors are distinct and taste great.
Then there are the CBD sour and regular gummies, the topical lotion and balm, both in standard and travel sizes. Finally, Koi CBD has a pet spray and bacon-flavored pet chews.
2. Uses Local,
Organic Hemp
The company sources organic hemp from farms in the United States. Koi CBD is in the process of obtaining organic certification, but currently, it follows organic farming practices.
Based on its third-party lab testing results, we can say its products are free of pesticides, residual solvents, heavy metals, and other foreign materials and contaminants.
However, given the high cost and lengthy
process involved in hemp certification, we still give Koi CBD credit for
sourcing high-quality hemp from local U.S farms.
3. Offer
Innovative & Unique Products
Koi CBD has two products that meet the
definition of innovation — the Koi
Naturals CBD Spray for Pets and the Koi CBD Tropical Fruit Gummies.
The pet spray sets itself apart in the CBD for pets niche because its potency is higher than many other pet products currently on the market. Also, its application is unique and easy to use.
Secondly, the CBD soft chew gummies are made by mixing and rolling Koi’s CBD blend into the gummies three times. By using the mix and roll method, Koi CBD attempts to give a more even and consistent application of CBD in every gummy.
Where Could Koi
CBD Improve?
1. No Full or Broad-Spectrum Vape
Juices
One of the significant downsides about Koi CBD’s vape juices is that none of them are full-spectrum or broad-spectrum. Since all of Koi’s vape juices and e-liquids are made with CBD isolate, consumers miss out on the coveted entourage effect.
2. Need to Update
Test Results
Some of the third-party test results on Koi CBD’s website are outdated. The website shows a few lab reports from 2018, the period before the company started performing a full panel of tests on all its products.
Additionally, not all lab reports are available on the company’s site. Although the company can send results when asked, it’s a more efficient business practice to have them posted publicly.
Safety &
Third-Party Testing
The safety and usage information for Koi
CBD products is clearly listed on the company’s website under the product page
in careful detail.
Yet, when it comes to third-party testing, uniformity was lacking. Reports for certain items were missing, while others were severely outdated. Then there are reports in excellent standing, showing information that matched what Koi CBD claimed on its site.
From our review, the terpene lab reports contained some of the most glaring discrepancies. One of Koi CBD’s biggest selling points is having ‘nearly’ full-spectrum products.
What makes them ‘nearly’ full-spectrum is the high levels of terpene and cannabinoid content. If lab reports show low or zero terpene content, the quality and efficacy of the product suffers. Plus, consumers get less than what’s advertised.
Fortunately, all other test results looked great. Reports showed the absence of pesticides, solvents, heavy metals, microbials, and more. Also, the cannabinoid content matched the potency levels on the product labels.
This is what a full panel of CBD tests
include:
- Cannabinoid profile
- Terpenes profile
- Residual solvents analysis
- Pesticides analysis
- Microbial impurities analysis
- Heavy metals analysis
- Mycotoxins analysis
Koi CBD’s
Shipping & Return Policy
Koi CBD doesn’t ship internationally, but it ships to all 50 states in the U.S. Also, it has a distributor based in Canada that carries some Koi CBD products.
Free shipping is available for U.S. orders greater than $35. Most shipments qualify because the majority of Koi CBD’s products are at least $30 or more. The average delivery time is 3 to 5 business days from the date the order is placed.
If you’re unsatisfied, you can return your order within 30 days from the purchase date to receive a refund. Customers are responsible for shipping costs.
Final Verdict: A
Diverse Range of Products Made With High-Quality Hemp
Koi CBD is a reputable and well-reviewed brand with good-quality CBD products. The company checks off most items on the essential CBD product list and even has some forward-thinking options. It also puts a strong emphasis on flavor, potency, and size variety for its tinctures, gummies, and e-liquids.
Everything is made from organically grown hemp and is manufactured in an ISO certified lab, undergoes CO2 extraction, and is third-party tested before being sold.
Koi is dedicated to creating 100% THC-free products, making them available to a broad group of people.
Overall, we love Koi CBD as a whole — it provides high-quality CBD products at a reasonable price. We recommend buying Koi CBD’s gummies or pet products for items that are a cut above the competition.
