NO HIGH EXPECTATIONS FROM DOPE DRINK
A large alcoholic drinks manufacturer in the Czech Republic has
launched a marijuana-flavoured liquor, the company announced on Friday.
The new vodka does not contain any tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the
active substance in marijuana, but does have an alcohol level of 16
percent, said Jiri Janak, the head of liquor production at Drinks Union.
"We produce it from hemp, but there is no THC in it," Janak
said.
He added he had received no complaints from anti-drug
activists.
He said the flavoured vodka is sold mostly in large supermarket chains
and in some restaurants.
A 0.5-litre bottle sells for about 85 koruna (about R20).
