Wyld Elderberry is the sleep gummy the rest of the cannabis edibles category is still trying to copy. Two-to-one CBN to THC math, 10 milligrams per piece, real elderberry juice and pectin you can taste in the chew. The brand sells more units in legal states than any other gummy on the shelf, and the elderberry SKU is the reason.
I tried two on a Tuesday night.
The Wyld Elderberry tin sat on the dispensary counter at $24 out the door for a 10-pack, which works out to 100mg total THC and 50mg CBN. I came in for sleep gummies. The budtender pointed at three tins, and the one she said outsells everything else on the shelf was Wyld. The Wyld product page backs that up by calling it “the best-selling infused gummy in the U.S.” That kind of claim usually means nothing. In this case it lined up with what the budtender saw weekly. So I bought the tin, took two gummies at 9:45 p.m. on a near-empty stomach, and wrote down what happened before I forgot how specific the experience was.
The Tin. 100mg per 10-Count Sleep Pack.
The full SKU name is Wyld Elderberry 2:1 CBN + Indica Enhanced Gummies. Each gummy is dosed at 10mg THC and 5mg CBN. The container holds 10 gummies, so the box is 100mg THC : 50mg CBN total. Wyld files it under their “Sleep” mood and labels it “Indica Enhanced,” which is their way of saying the cannabis extract used carries an indica-leaning profile rather than a single named indica strain. If you want the background on what indica even means anymore, the hybrid cannabis explainer covers why the old indica-versus-sativa binary is mostly marketing.
The ingredient list reads cleaner than most. Sugar, tapioca syrup, water, elderberry juice concentrate, gelatin, natural flavoring, coconut oil, citric acid, malic acid, pectin, cannabis extract, hemp extract, sunflower lecithin. No artificial colors. The elderberry juice concentrate is what carries the flavor, and you can taste it the second the gummy hits your tongue.
The price varies by state because cannabis pricing always does. I saw the 10-pack between $18 and $28 across three Oregon dispensaries the same week. The mid-$20s seems to be where it lands most often.
The packaging is a metal tin with a child-resistant push-and-turn lid. The tin is genuinely nice.

The Brand. Two Spirits Guys, A Farmhouse, And Crayons.
Wyld was founded in 2015 in Tumalo, Oregon by spirits-industry veterans Aaron Morris and Chris Joseph, then moved its headquarters to Portland in 2016, per the Wikipedia Wyld brand entry. Two guys, one farmhouse, one cannabis license that came with the ranch.
The early product was bad. Joseph told the brand’s official history that the first couple of batches tasted “like crayons,” which sent him back to his gelatin supplier to rebuild the formula from the candy side instead of the cannabis side. Marionberry and raspberry came out of that rebuild. The pectin-and-real-juice template that defines every Wyld gummy today traces directly to the crayon-batch fix.
Forbes contributor Lauren Yoshiko, in her brand profile, called the gummies “juicy and soft” and said she would eat the “whole pack of ten in one sitting” if she were not “treating them like medicine.” That review is from before Wyld was the biggest gummy in the country. The texture is what got them there.
The candy-first, cannabis-second approach is the whole brand thesis.
Onset. Fifty Minutes To First Flicker, Eighty To Full Weight.
I ate two gummies at 9:45 p.m. on a near-empty stomach, about an hour after dinner. First flicker of effect at the 50-minute mark, which is normal for a pectin-and-gelatin edible. Full weight by minute 80. I was already in bed reading by then, so the timing worked.
The CBN is what makes this SKU different from Wyld’s regular fruit line. CBN is the cannabinoid people associate with sedation, though the actual research is thinner than the marketing implies. Healthline’s CBN explainer notes that the sedation evidence is mostly anecdotal and tied up with the THC that almost always co-occurs in CBN products. A 2022 PubMed study on cannabinol reached a similar conclusion: CBN’s sleep effect in humans is plausible but not yet clinically established outside of THC co-administration.
So the honest read is this. I cannot tell you the CBN alone put me out. I can tell you that 20mg THC plus 10mg CBN at bedtime put me down hard and kept me down through the night, and a 20mg THC dose alone usually does not do that for me.
I woke up at 7 a.m. with a soft head. Not foggy, not hungover, just slower than usual for the first 20 minutes. By coffee number two I felt normal. That is a better morning than I get off most 20mg THC sleep edibles, where I usually wake up either at 4 a.m. wired or at 8 a.m. blurry.
I ran the same test three more nights across two weeks, switching between one gummy (10mg THC, 5mg CBN) and two gummies (20mg + 10mg). One gummy was not enough on the nights I had any caffeine after 4 p.m. Two gummies was the right dose for a real sleep result. Your tolerance will move that math.
Couch-locked, but earned. The kind of edible you do not fight.
The Chew. Real Elderberry, Jammy And Tart, Not Synthetic Candy.
Most cannabis gummies taste like cannabis gummies. The cheap ones taste like a children’s vitamin. The mid-tier ones taste like Sour Patch Kids that lost a fight with a bag of trim. The elderberry version of Wyld tastes like elderberry, dialed in. Not like grape, not like generic “berry,” like actual elderberry, which is darker and slightly tannic and a little floral on the back end. Jammy. Tart. Real fruit.
The texture is pectin-soft, not gelatin-rubbery. The gummies do not stick to the teeth. There is a faint cannabis bitterness on the swallow, but the elderberry covers it better than the raspberry SKU does, probably because the elderberry concentrate is more aggressive than the raspberry in the first place.
I keep them in the fridge to slow the sugar bloom on the outside of the gummies, which is a thing every fruit-pectin gummy does after a few weeks at room temperature.

Where To Buy. Oregon Has The Deepest Shelf, Fourteen States Stock It.
Wyld is sold in licensed cannabis dispensaries only, not online. The Wyld U.S. store locator shows distribution across Oregon, California, Colorado, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Illinois, Michigan, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, and a few additional states that have rolled in recently. Oregon is home base, and the freshest stock and deepest SKU lineup sit in Oregon dispensaries. The top Oregon dispensaries roundup is the easiest way to find a shop that actually stocks the CBN tins versus the daytime fruit pack.
If you are in Portland specifically, the Portland cannabis tour hits six shops along Hawthorne and Belmont where I have personally seen Wyld Elderberry on the shelf in the last two months.
If you cannot find the Elderberry tin specifically, ask the budtender to check the back. The fruit gummies (Marionberry, Raspberry, Huckleberry) sit on the front of most Wyld displays, and the CBN-enhanced sleep tins sometimes get tucked behind them because they are a slower per-unit mover than the daytime fruit pack.
Weedmaps and Leafly both list local pricing. Cross-checking a tin against the Leafly Wyld brand page before you walk in is the easiest way to make sure the asking price at the counter is in the normal range for your state. California shoppers can also cross-check against the verified California brands roundup, and East Coast shoppers will find Wyld in the New Jersey brands roundup.

Wyld vs Kiva vs Kanha. Three Lanes, One Shelf.
I have spent a lot of time with both Kiva and Kanha, and they sit in slightly different lanes from Wyld even though all three end up on the same shelf.
Kiva, through its Camino sub-brand, owns the daytime mood-mapped gummy category. Camino’s strength is the curated effect lineup: Sparkling Pear for energy, Wild Berry for relaxation, Midnight Blueberry for sleep. Camino’s Midnight Blueberry is the closest direct competitor to Wyld Elderberry, and the two are genuinely close. Camino’s CBN dose is a touch lower (3mg per gummy versus Wyld’s 5mg), and the flavor leans candy-sweet where Wyld leans tart-fruit.
Kanha is the everyday, everywhere brand. Kanha’s Tranquility gummies are also a sleep play, and they ship at 5mg THC per gummy plus melatonin. That makes them a softer dose, which works for new sleep-edible users. Wyld’s 10mg-per-gummy dose is built for people who already know what 10mg THC feels like and want CBN on top.
If you want the brand that feels most like a designed mood system, that is Kiva. If you want the brand that shows up in every dispensary and never disappoints, that is Kanha. If you want the cleanest-tasting fruit-forward sleep gummy with the most aggressive CBN dose of the three, that is Wyld Elderberry.
For a closer-to-Wyld comparison on dosing intensity, the Twenty Two K review covers a brand that pushes the high-THC end of the gummy market harder than any of these mainstream three. And if your sleep-edible workflow is going to live alongside a vape, the PAX 3 review covers the device most Wyld customers I know also keep on the nightstand.
What I Do Not Love. Two Honest Knocks.
Two things, honestly.
First, the per-gummy THC is fixed at 10mg. There is no 5mg-per-gummy version of the Elderberry SKU, which means a new sleep-edible user who wants to start at 5mg has to bite a gummy in half and hope the dose split is even. Pectin gummies do not split as cleanly as gelatin gummies, and Wyld’s are pectin-forward.
Second, the pricing creep over the last 18 months has been real. The same tin that ran $18 in 2024 is running $24 to $28 in 2026 in the same Oregon dispensaries. Some of that is general cannabis-edibles inflation. Some of it is Wyld pushing price because the demand is there. Either way, the value gap between Wyld and store-brand sleep gummies has narrowed.

Verdict. 4.3 Out Of 5. The Sleep Gummy The Rest Are Copying.
Wyld Elderberry 2:1 CBN earns a 4.3 out of 5. It does the one thing it is built to do, which is put a regular cannabis user to sleep without a wrecked-feeling morning. The flavor is the best in its category, the dose math is honest, and the brand has earned the shelf space it occupies. The price-per-gummy creep and the lack of a half-dose option are the only real reasons it does not crack 4.5.
Best For, Skip If.
Best for: regular cannabis users who already handle 10 to 20mg THC comfortably and want a clean-tasting CBN-enhanced sleep gummy that actually delivers a sedative effect.
Skip if: you are new to edibles and want a 5mg starter dose, you do not like elderberry as a flavor, or you are trying to find the cheapest-per-mg sleep gummy on the shelf. Camino Midnight Blueberry or Kanha Tranquility will serve those use cases better.
The sleep gummy the rest of the cannabis edibles category is still trying to copy. The receipts are on the shelf.
