Following on Willie Nelson's "Willie's Reserve" cannabis brand, the music icon and weed enthusiast has launched the new Willie's Remedy line of CBD-infused health and wellness products, starting with coffee. From Rolling Stone:

According to a release, Nelson's coffee is a medium-dark whole-bean blend with "flavor notes of cherry and cocoa." Each 8 oz. cup contains 7 mg. of hemp-derived CDB.

Nelson's wife Annie is overseeing the Willie's Remedy brand and has plans to release other products in the coming year, including topicals and confections. "The Willie's Remedy line is a purposeful departure from Willie's Reserve," said Annie Nelson. "It's not about getting high, but it's still all about Willie and the benefits we believe cannabis has to offer."
