“We look forward to working with NXT Water on this venture to be able to provide verification and a new level of accountability to the hemp-derived beverage category,” stated BLOCKStrain CEO, Robert Galarza. “It also provides further validation of the value that our technology provides to the cannabis industry, and to the brands seeking to provide customers with insight and clarity into their products.”

“There are many brands in the hemp-derived beverage space making unsubstantiated claims regarding the ingredients, potency and overall quality of their products,” said Todd Waks, CEO of NXT Water. “Leveraging BLOCKStrain’s technology, AKESO will offer its customers a new form of trust in the product they ingest.”

“Access to AKESO’s core ingredients is purposely quick and easy. Customers simply use an internet-enabled device to scan the QR code on the side of the bottle, offering real-time access to a dashboard of ingredients, all verified using the Blockchain.” said Waks. “Data will be secured and authenticated via certificates of analysis (COA) for both the hemp oil and purified water.”

“We source only the best organically-grown hemp oil, supplemented with oxygenated electrolytes, and loaded with vitamins and minerals,” said Waks. “We then use our proprietary homogenization/infusion process to create the finest odourless, colourless and cleanest-tasting water ever.”
