If we could sum it up in two points:
1) High quality products
2) Affordable prices
When Clearly California began, the founders were frustrated by the poor quality and high costs of products that their family and friends were consuming. So they started the business in the garage and set out to produce organic, high quality California product at an affordable price that made them fall in love with cannabis.
Clearly California began making pesticide-free, solvent-free, high quality products years above industry standards long before anyone else. We don’t want to see people getting sick by smoking trash from Johnny’s backyard because some weird compost soil that messes up the plant. We don’t want to see solvents like heptane, butane, and pentane used for distillation hurting people who enjoy consuming cannabis extract.
One of our founders grew up on the beach in Santa Cruz where everyone knew your name and everything closed around 8pm. Clearly California wants to provide that sense of safety, ease, and relaxation with the consumption of our products. What you see is what you get.
Nowadays, Clearly California is a successful brand positioned to expand its licensing in multiple markets across the country.

Central California. But we soon plan to expand into other states.

For live resin, you can put a dab on some flower, but it is best used on a low-temperature dab rig or rechargeable device such as CCell.

We’re here to help! Each cannabis product is different, depending on how it’s grown, the strain, the type of product, and a number of other factors. You could feel a little, or you could feel a lot. The point is that with our cannabis products, you are in control.
So that you can get the most out of your first-time experience, let’s start with this question: how do you want to feel?
-
We run our products through rigorous lab processes and testing to give you the best quality possible with no contaminants. We take the extra time and spend the extra money to produce the freshest and best quality cannabis products. In the land of cutting corners, that matters. Everything is done in-house – we have access directly from the plant to the freezer to the machines. And we price our products at affordable prices so that more working-class people can access these products. In short: we actually care.

Diamonds are an extract of the cannabis plant. Clearly California uses a proprietary method of extraction that goes very low and very slow. We run the fresh frozen harvest through a hash machine where it sits for a few days. This results in High Terpene Extract on the top – like froth on a latte – that gets poured away.
What’s left on the bottom is the high cannabinoid extract – the diamonds and crystals – just like rock candy. Diamonds have a very high THC concentration as a result.
-
Our HTE is a full-spectrum live resin with a high concentration of terpenes – about 50%. “Full spectrum” means that the extracted cannabis concentrate product reflects the raw, live cannabis plant in potency and compound makeup. HTE is that oily layer that rises to the top in a hash machine like froth on a latte.
While terpenes don’t produce a high, HTE has dozens of other cannabinoids that have medicinal properties and when used together have highly potent effects. This is called the “entourage effect” – when the percentage of cannabinoids is lowered by the inclusion of terpenes, and yet you feel a greater effect. When you use HTE with a high THC concentrate product like our Diamonds, you may be able to experience the entourage effect for yourself.
-
Live resin is a cannabis concentrate extracted from freshly harvested frozen marijuana plant material. Clearly California then fresh freezes the material (as opposed to flash-freezing) at sublevel temperatures and extracts the cannabinoids solely through a butane machine, then purged of the solvent.
It’s called “live resin” because, unlike cured resin, the drying and curing steps are skipped, and the plant is turned into concentrate immediately after harvesting.
-
Both resin and rosin are cannabis plant extracts.
Resin is produced through hydrocarbon extraction, whereas rosin is created through a solventless method. The ice-water hash machine knocks off all the crystals and trichomes from the plant, which are then collected and pressed into resin and stabilized into a taffy-like substance.
Rosin is often regarded as the superior concentrate.
-
Sativa and Indica are the two main types of cannabis.
Cannabis Sativa often contains lower doses of CBD and higher doses of THC. Sativa often produces a “mind high” or an energizing, anxiety-reducing effect. Use of Sativa strains can lead to feelings of productivity and creativity, as opposed to feeling relaxed and lethargic. Because Sativa has a stimulating impact, it is often used during the day. The plant is typically found in hot, dry climates with long sunny days.
Cannabis Indica typically contains higher levels of CBD, but the THC content isn’t necessarily less. Indica often produces more of a body high with intensely relaxing effects. It may also help reduce nausea and pain while increasing appetite. Due to its relaxation effects, it’s often used at night. The plant is more adaptable and can be found even in harsh, dry, and rough climates.

There are over 100 known cannabinoids – THC and CBD are two of the most significant cannabinoids. These two cannabinoids react differently with our receptors.
The high associated with cannabis use is due to the cannabinoid THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), while CBD (cannabidiol) has no psychoactive effect but has many other physical and mental benefits. Terpenes don’t produce a high.

Clearly California is one of five companies within California with an exclusive contract with CCell. We are able to purchase, buy, and carry anything CCell produces.
We love working with CCell because they are all about safety, assurance, and quality. They work only with 100% licensed companies and are serious about producing the best vaping technology on the market.

The regulations on 1000mg refer to Delta-9 THC and not THC-A.
While the HTE, or sauce, side of the Twin Fin contains THC, the Diamonds side of the Twin Fin contains mostly THCA, which does not become THC until it is heated (or “decarboxylated”), typically in the range of 400-600°F (200-315°C).
Until it is heated, it is not THC, so the Twin Fin is in compliance, containing less than 1,000 mg of THC.

Less than 0.01%. Between carts and pods, we’ve sold over half a million.

Here’s some best-practice advice for every consumer: Microdose (small doses) until you find your sweet spot. You can always add more, but you can’t take less after you’ve already consumed.
