Nordic Oil CBD Capsules (Europe)

The CBD capsules from Nordic Oil are a solid option for European shoppers. These gelatin softgels come in potencies of 6.4 mg and 16 mg per capsule, with 60 capsules per bottle.

They contain full-spectrum hemp extract dissolved in olive oil and even have small amounts of CBDa, the form of CBD as it’s found inside the hemp plant, which suggests minimal processing.

Although these capsules lack a high-potency variant for individuals with high CBD preferences, they’re still a great purchase overall.

We consider these capsules to be one of the best CBD capsules in Europe.

Price/Value 4/5

These capsules are quite affordable, coming out to about £0.07 – £0.10 per mg. This is below the average cost for CBD capsules in Europe. However, a few competitor brands are cheaper, so we can’t give Nordic Oil full points here.

CBD Potency 3/5

The two capsule potencies offered by Nordic Oil — 6.4 mg and 16 mg — are great for anyone with low-to-medium dosage preferences. Unfortunately, this product is lacking a high-potency (30+ mg) option for those who need a stronger dose of CBD.

Hemp Source 4/5

Nordic Oil’s organic, non-GMO hemp is grown in Europe without the use of pesticides. It’s also backed by third-party potency tests. However, the company doesn’t provide proof of organic certification or third-party tests for pesticides and other contaminants.

Purpose/Uses 4/5

Nordic Oil’s capsules are meant to be a tasteless alternative to the company’s full-spectrum oils and pastes. In that sense, they can be used for any purpose people would normally take CBD for, which is why the formula is fairly basic. 

For full-points in this category, we like to see products that have other nutritional or herbal ingredients added to help direct the effects of CBD for a specific application or purpose.

Product Variations 4/5

These full-spectrum capsules are available in low and medium potencies with 60 softgels per bottle, as well as combo packs of three bottles. 

We’d like to see some other formula options for these capsules like the company has for its oils (such as the curcumin and melatonin versions).

Formula/Ingredients 4/5

These gelatin softgels provide full-spectrum hemp extract dissolved in olive oil, as well as glycerine and water — a fairly standard formula for CBD capsules. But we do like the inclusion of small amounts of CBDa, the parent molecule of CBD with similar benefits. 

All in all, while this formula is effective, we expect more beneficial ingredients to give full points here.

About the Company: Nordic Oil

Nordic Oil was established in 2018. The company sells a wide variety of CBD products — including CBD oilscapsules, topicals and cosmetics, concentratese-liquidsisolate powderspet products, and CBD-infused multivitamins.

However, the whole range of these products is only available in some European countries. Meanwhile, American customers can only purchase two CBD oil products — full-spectrum CBD oil and a melatonin-infused Mani Oil.

Given this unique situation, Nordic Oil uses separate hemp sources for North American and European products.

American products are made from plants grown in California, while European products are made with European hemp.

In both cases, the company claims to use only organic, non-GMO, pesticide-free hemp and provides third-party potency test results for ultimate transparency.

Cost & Potency

These full-spectrum capsules cost £0.06 – £0.10 per mg of CBD, although the price may vary depending on the specific European country you’re in. This price is considered slightly cheaper than average.

If you purchase a pack of three bottles, you can bring the price down as low as £0.06 per milligram of CBD. Altogether, Nordic Oil’s CBD capsules provide above-average value.

Nordic’s CBD capsules are available in low (6.4 mg) and medium (16 mg) potencies. This covers a range of doses but lacks a high-potency option. This means if you need to double or triple down on the number of capsules you take depending on your dosage goals.

Cost & Potency Breakdown of Nordic Oil CBD Capsules:

Product Image Product Name Total Price Total CBD Content Cost per mg CBD Potency (mg per Capsule)

Hemp Source

According to Nordic Oil, the hemp used to make these capsules is organic, non-GMO, and grown in Europe. The company also provides third-party potency tests to confirm the levels of CBD and other cannabinoids.

Although we think Nordic Oil is a reputable brand using good-quality hemp, it would be great if it provided proof of organic certification and third-party tests for pesticides and other contaminants.

Formulation/Ingredients

Nordic Oil’s capsules contain full-spectrum hemp extract, olive oil as a carrier to aid CBD absorption, glycerine, and water. The capsules are made of animal-based gelatin so it’s not considered vegan-friendly.

This formula is fairly simple and effective, although one thing that does stand out is the presence of CBDa (cannabidiolic acid) — the natural form of CBD before it’s broken down by heat. CBDa has similar benefits to CBD, and its presence is a good indication of minimal processing.

Nordic Oil Shipping & Return Policy

Nordic Oil ships throughout Europe and offers free shipping on orders over £29.99.

As for returns, you can get a full refund or exchange on any product returned within 30 days of purchase.

It’s also great that the company provides efficient customer service: all of our questions were resolved quickly.

Final Verdict: One of the Better Capsule Products Available in Europe

If you’re looking for European CBD capsules, Nordic Oil is a good option.

These capsules tick all the right boxes. They contain full-spectrum hemp extract with a whole range of beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes. There’s even some CBDa, the natural precursor to CBD with its own health benefits. And thanks to third-party potency tests, we can verify that all the cannabinoids claimed are present inside the bottle.

These capsules are also quite affordable, especially if you buy the 3-pack, and come in two potencies, making it easier to choose the right CBD strength for your dosage goals.

It would be great if Nordic Oil also provided a high potency option and third-party tests for contaminants, but on the whole, these capsules are a great choice for European shoppers.
