A cannabis and coffee company has opened in Waterford.
Blooms cafe, an Amsterdam-style cannabis coffee shop, is located on 50 John Street in the city.
All of the cannabis strains are legal, with high-CBD and are below the legal limit of 0.2% .
Customers cannot smoke within the café, but are welcome to add cannabis strains to the coffee varieties.
Blooms café also sells vegan food and coffee.
On their Facebook page, they say "High CBD strains are perfect for those who want a relaxing and calming experience , but do not want the mind altering effects that is caused by THC, the compound found in illegal cannabis.
CBD does not impair mental function or increase heart rate and is non-toxic. It is proven not to be addictive, it is natural to our bodies and natural to every climate on the planet.
It is ideal for the fast moving society that we live in and it can be understood to be like aromatherapy or herbology.
It is a plant that is full of beautiful flavonoids and terpenes like lavender or limonene etc.
We are not medical professionals and do not make health claims about our products. If you have an underlying health condition please consult a medical professional."
They took to social media to thank authorities for working with them and enabling them to bring this "experience" to the public.
