Red Edition 180mg CBD/CBDa oil
The Red Edition is a 6% strength CBD oil extracted from Cannabis Indica hemp. It is a nutty oil with a smooth texture and taste, just a hint of bitterness, and a surprisingly mild aftertaste. The 1ml bottles contain 60mg of CBD and CBDa extract each suspended in cold-pressed, organic certified, hemp seed oil.
In a bottle, you get approximately 20 drops of thick, luxurious oil, each containing 3mg of CBD/CBDa. CBDa is the perfect companion to CBD and can interact with your body’s endocannabinoid receptors.
Full-spectrum Indica CBD oil
Made by CBD Brothers from the buds and flower of organically grown Indica hemp plants, the Red Edition is the ultimate choice for those looking for something different to the standard sativa-based oils. Indica hemp strains are known for their blend of cannabinoids and terpenes that provide the entourage effect.
Grown in a greenhouse under controlled conditions, this full-spectrum formula of the Red Edition provides a range of cannabinoids and terpenes alongside CBD and CBDa. Oils made using a full-spectrum extract contain all the cannabinoids present in the plant and have more active ingredients than CBD isolate products.
The range of cannabinoids detected in the lab analysis include:
The Original Alternative White Edition also contains trace amounts of:

CBD Brothers - aka The Original Alternative
Known as the oldest producer of cannabis extracts in the UK, the CBD Brothers (aka The Original Alternative), started life in a small one-car garage. Initially, they aimed to create small amounts of oils and lotions for use by their family and neighbours. As their products became popular, they found that they needed more space. Now they are located in a purpose-built, off-grid facility in Suffolk.
They are unique in that you can choose CBD products made with Indica, Sativa or hybrid hemp varieties. Each has a different balance of cannabinoids and terpenes, giving you a greater choice over composition.
Their hemp is grown organically on small farms in Guernsey with no pesticides or artificial fertilisers. Plants grown to produce the Silver, White, Red and Black Editions are grown under lights, and those that go into the Green, Blue and Purple Editions are grown outside in the sunlight until they are ready to be handpicked and dried. The Gold Edition is grown in their Guernsey greenhouse.
To ensure they only produce products of the highest quality, CBD Brothers uses CO2 extraction under low heat and low-pressure conditions. The resulting extracts contain a rich mix of cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and essential fatty acids.
They are the first to admit that the nature of natural extracts means there may be slight differences from batch to batch, but with the use of third-party lab testing, they maintain impressive standards. The analysis is administered by two independent companies who use state of the art high pressured liquid chromatography (HPLC) machines to detect the contents of each sample.
As of 2022, CBD Brothers have an active Novel Foods application with the Food Standards Agency. This ensures that their supplements can remain on sale legally in the UK.
Suggested use
- Gently swirl (do not shake) the bottle to mix.
- Take 2-3 drops and place under the tongue.
- Hold for 1-2 minutes so the CBD can be absorbed into your bloodstream.
- Swallow any remaining oil and wash down with a drink of your choice.
1 drop = 3mg of CBD/CBDa
1 x 1ml bottle = approximately 20 drops
- We recommend taking the oil twice per day, before breakfast and dinner.
- Use a mirror to ensure you take the intended number of drops.
- If you’re having difficulty extracting the remaining drops from the bottle, you can add a little olive or hemp seed oil to make this easier.
- CBD oil works in synergy with the CBDa content of hemp tea. Read about the benefits of hemp tea or visit the CBD tea collection for more info.
Who is CBD Brothers Red Edition suitable for?
Because of the low CBD percentage, this supplement is suitable for beginners, those very sensitive to food supplements, and parents looking for a CBD oil suitable for children. You can start with as little as 1-2 drops per day using the suggested method of application above.

How much CBD is good for me?
We are all different, so there’s no standard number of drops one should take. Start with the lowest recommended amount (or lower if you prefer) and increase gradually, until you find the ideal amount to suit your needs.
In all cases, do not exceed 70mg of CBD per day, this is approximately 46 drops of White Edition CBD oil.
