Delta-8 is a legal hemp isomer that’s made from CBD. Because it's made from legal hemp material and contains less than 0.3% Delta-9-THC, it's federally classified as a legal hemp product. Fortunately, many states agree, so consumers all over the US can more easily access Delta-8 than they can traditional cannabis products.
Just like traditional THC, Delta-8-THC has some psychoactive properties, although they're thought to be about 60% as potent. Experts have suggested that Delta-8 may have similar therapeutic benefits, and in some cases it may even be more beneficial than medicinal THC. Because it's not quite as potent, some research has found it to be less likely to cause the negative side effects associated with some THC products, like anxiety and paranoia.
Consumers are definitely using it in a variety of ways, and you can find a number of different dosing styles, potencies, and flavors when buying Delta-8 in stores and online.

Because Delta-8-THC is banned in Rhode Island, you won’t find legal Delta-8 products in stores. In areas where Delta-8-THC is legal, however, many people opt to buy Delta-8 online instead of sourcing from local stores. Here’s why:
Some Delta-8 companies make it simple to buy Delta-8 online and have it shipped directly to your door. For many people, shopping online is best because you can:
When you buy online, you'll have access to a wider selection of product types, potencies, flavors, and more.
Buying online gives you a better opportunity to verify the quality of products before you buy. You can easily research your brand's reputation, look for third-party lab tests, and verify their hemp source. We recommend buying from a brand that uses US grown, pesticide-free hemp that's quality tested before production. Also ensure that they use a third party testing technique to verify label accuracy.
For example, you can find our third party lab test results for every batch clearly listed on every product page. All Vida Optima products are backed by independent lab tests that verify the potency of our products. We use only high-quality U.S. hemp manufactured in cGMP-compliant facilities to ensure that we only offer the best quality possible.
Buying Delta-8 online is almost always cheaper than buying it in stores. That's because you can compare products and prices and buy directly from a hemp brand. In other words, you can avoid the upcharge associated with aftermarket vendors.
At Vida Optima, we take extra steps to help keep our prices low and make our products accessible to everybody. We avoid expensive advertising campaigns and do a lot of our marketing in house. Then, we pass the savings down to the consumer.
We're proud to offer some of the most affordable, high-quality Delta-8-THC products on the market.
Shopping online means accessing the Delta-8 products you need without driving store to store or even leaving your couch.
Buying online from our store is incredibly discreet! Every Vida Optima delivery arrives discreetly packaged so that it won’t tip off the delivery person or your neighbors.
Because Delta-8 is banned in the state, you won't be able to find legal Delta-8 products in stores. Of course, there are reports of Delta-8 products that have, to this point, slipped through the cracks. You may be able to find some products in local convenience stores or smoke shops, but keep in mind that these products are not legal.
You should also be wary of the quality since many of these products may not contain the Delta-8-THC they claim at all. Local vendors are also not required to provide you with test results or other quality related information. You'll also likely pay a serious upcharge on products from a third party vendor.
In general, we don't recommend buying Delta-8 at Rhode Island stores.
You won't be able to find legal Delta-8 products in Rhode Island because the state has banned Delta-8-THC manufacturing and sales. In legal areas, however, many people prefer to buy Delta-8-THC shopping online has its advantages, like a wider product selection.
At Vida Optima, we have multiple different Delta-8 formulas, including:
Delta 8 gummies are classic dosing style that need to be digested before they reach the bloodstream. You may wait around 90 minutes to feel the full effects of a Delta-8 gummy, but the experience may be longer lived than other dosing methods.
Consumers love this dosing style because they come in pre-portioned, convenient doses. Gummies are discreet, portable and incredibly palatable, even for those who don't enjoy the flavor of hemp products.
Our Delta-8 Gummies are made using a vegan gummy formula and offer 10 milligrams of Delta-8 per piece.

Sublingual edibles after many of the same perks as traditional edibles, like being pre-portioned, discreet, and portable. Plus, consumers find our sublingual style edibles to be delicious and often suggest that it's hard to have just one dose.
One significant advantage of sublingual edibles, however, is that they are designed to melt in your mouth. This allows Delta-8 to skip the digestive process and be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Sublingual edibles may take effect in only thirty minutes, which is a serious advantage for therapeutic users.
We have a variety of sublingual-style edibles, like our Elev8 Hard Candies and Elev8 Chews, including 10, 25, and 50 mg doses.
Delta-8 oils also offer a significant advantage. They can be measured in small increments, which gives users the ability to alter the dose each time. This is great for new users who aren't yet comfortable with their dosing threshold or therapeutic users who find that they need more or less Delta-8 at a given time.
Oils are also designed to be taken sublingually, which means you drop them under your tongue, so they can take effect in about 30 minutes.
Our Delta-8-THC Oil tests at 95%+ Δ8THC and offers a potent 1,000 mg of Delta-8 per bottle.
Vapes are a fast acting dosing method that can take effect about 5 minutes after inhalation. This makes them popular both for therapeutic and recreational use. It also gives users the ability to stack small doses every few minutes and monitor the effects as they go.
Different vape formulas also contain a variety of different terpenes and hemp compounds that alter the therapeutic and recreational effects. In other words, you can choose a formula based on your dosing needs, which gives you a little more control over your Delta-8 experience.
Our Elev8 Delta-8 Vape Carts contain 1000mg of Delta-8 oil per cartridge with about 5% reserved for terpenes (used for strain profiling.) Our carts may deliver anywhere from 150 to 300 individual doses depending on the length of each inhale and the type of battery used. You can grab an Indica, Sativa, or Hybrid Delta-8 Vape Cart from our Elev8 Collection.
To learn more, read our Delta-8-THC Cart Buying Guide.
Delta 8 flower is a popular dosing method that's made by spraying Delta-8 distillate onto CBD rich hemp flower. You use it just like traditional cannabis flower by rolling it or packing it in a bowl to smoke. The experience is aromatic and offers fast-acting benefits. Plus, the hemp flower contains CBD and other terpenes that may offer boosted therapeutic effects.
Our Delta-8-THC Flower collection includes a variety of the most popular strains, including indicas, sativas, and hybrids.
Because Delta-8 is illegal in Rhode island, the state has not defined any minimum age requirements. Still, vendors usually require you to be at least 21 years old to buy Delta-8-THC. These minimum age requirements also apply when buying Delta-8 products online.
If you’re shopping in stores, your access to Delta-8 may be limited. If you buy Delta-8 online from legal areas, you can buy Delta-8 from virtually anywhere. That means that whether you are shopping from Providence, Cranston, Warwick, Pawtucket or another town in Rhode Island, you'll find a better variety online than you'll find in stores.
