What the record says

Vermont treats a product as cannabis, requiring Cannabis Control Board licensure, if it contains more than 0.3 percent THC on a dry weight basis, more than 1.5 milligrams of THC per serving or more than 10 milligrams per package, unless the CBD to THC ratio exceeds 20 to 1, or if its dominant market appeal mimics THC intoxication. A beverage faces the same thresholds, and any hemp product combined with beverage alcohol is automatically cannabis. Retail sale of hemp-derived Delta-9 THC beverages in Vermont is restricted, and those thresholds are effectively prohibitive for a commercially dosed beverage outside the licensed channel.
