Hiatus by Cypress Hemp: a THC + CBD seltzer built to unwind
Hiatus by Cypress Hemp is a light, fast-acting seltzer that pairs a low 5 mg dose of THC with a generous dose of CBD, up to 125 mg in the Lemonade and Cherry Pomegranate flavors. Many people reach for it in the evening to unwind in place of a drink. It is for adults 21 and older, it is intoxicating, and the sensible way to try it is to start with half a can.
This is general information, not medical advice.
For adults 21 and older. Hiatus contains THC and is intoxicating, do not drive or operate machinery after it, and it may cause a positive result on a drug test. Do not combine it with alcohol or other sedatives. Start low, with half a can, and go slow.
What is in it
The signature of Hiatus is the ratio. The 125 mg CBD flavors carry a low 5 mg of THC alongside a much larger amount of CBD, which is why people tend to describe the feel as body-forward and easygoing rather than heady. The line comes in a few builds so you can match the night:
| Flavor | THC | CBD |
|---|---|---|
| Lemonade | 5 mg | 125 mg |
| Cherry Pomegranate | 5 mg | 125 mg |
| Peach Strawberry | 5 mg | 15 mg |
| Mango Satsuma | 2 mg | 20 mg |
It is lightly sweetened with cane sugar and drinks like a crisp seltzer, not a syrupy soda. The 5 mg THC per can fits Louisiana's 5 mg-per-serving cap on beverages.
Who it is for and how people use it
Hiatus lands with people who want a gentle, evening wind-down in place of a beer or a glass of wine. The high CBD-to-THC ratio in the 125 mg flavors is why it is a favorite for a calm, body-forward relaxed feeling. It is designed to support relaxation, and many people use it simply to take the edge off after a long day, not to get high.
How to use it responsibly
- Start with half a can to see how it lands. Effects from a seltzer may begin within about 15 to 45 minutes and can last a few hours.
- It is intoxicating: 21+, do not drive, and it may affect a drug test.
- Use it in place of a drink, never on top of one. Do not combine THC and alcohol.
Try it: Hiatus Cherry Pomegranate or Hiatus Lemonade (both 5 mg THC + 125 mg CBD).
