About Cabbacis
Cabbacis is committed to developing and commercializing reduced-nicotine cigarettes and vaporizer pods. Both types of products in development are predominately tobacco and include hemp. The Company stands ready to also move forward with reduced-nicotine tobacco cigarettes and little cigars without hemp.
Reduced-nicotine cigarettes without hemp have been evaluated in dozens of independent studies and contain about 95 percent less nicotine than conventional cigarettes. Results demonstrate, as reviewed in Donny and White 2022, that subjects smoked fewer cigarettes per day, reduced their nicotine dependence and exposure, doubled their quit attempts, and/or increased their number of smoke-free days. The Company believes including hemp flower into reduced-nicotine cigarettes improves sensory characteristics and may potentially improve effectiveness due to the presence of non-THC cannabinoids.
The worldwide patent portfolio of Cabbacis LLC includes 32 issued patents and various pending patent applications across the United States, Europe, China, India, Japan, Indonesia, Russia, South Korea, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Brazil and other countries – where approximately two-thirds of the world’s smokers reside. Cabbacis holds 6 U.S. patents. Cabbacis LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cabbacis Inc.
