Canopy Growth brings the best of California's award winning Claybourne Pre-Roll Joint brand to adult-use consumers across Canada with the launch of 'Frosted Flyers'

SMITHS FALLS, ON, Nov. 20, 2024 /CNW/ - Canopy Growth Corporation ("Canopy Growth" or the "Company") (TSX: WEED) (NASDAQ: CGC), a world-leading cannabis company dedicated to unleashing the power of cannabis to improve lives, announced today through an exclusive licensing agreement the launch of the award-winning California grown Claybourne brand in Canada. This initial launch brings Claybourne's Frosted Flyers Infused Pre-Rolls to Canadian medical and adult-use consumers in five distinct offerings, Blue Dream, Strawberry Cough, Pineapple Express, Grape Gasolina and Banana OG. Each Frosted Flyer is high potency and packed with nonstop flavor from start to finish.

Founded in 2017, Claybourne has built a reputation on originality and quality across California - one of the world's most competitive cannabis markets – helping redefine cannabis culture. Claybourne's Frosted Flyers Infused Pre-Rolls are the latest introduction from Canopy Growth into the rapidly growing and established infused segment in Canada.

Since 2022, the pre-roll joint market in Canada has grown 94%¹ – with infused pre-rolls now totalling 9.6% of the total recreational market².

"Claybourne Frosted Flyers are one of the most successful infused pre-rolls available in the U.S. and bringing them to adult consumers across Canada is a major step forward in Canopy Growth's innovation and commercialization strategy as we push even further into the rapidly expanding pre-roll joint category," said Dave Paterson, President, Canada, Canopy Growth. "This launch shows our dedication to delivering exciting brands and innovative products that raise the bar for what an elevated cannabis experience should be."

Claybourne Frosted Flyers Infused Pre-Rolls offer higher potency, unrivaled smokability and consistent flavour. This is achieved through a multi-step innovative, artisanal and hand-made approach to crafting the final product through:

• Diamond Frosting: a unique, flavourless THCa coating on the outside of the joint provides added potency and contributes to a consistent, full flower flavour experience from beginning to end.
• Liquid Diamond Infusion: added concentrated THC in the form of diamonds.
• Terpene Enhanced: an additional infusion of natural terpenes to help accent the bold flavours of your favourite flower.
• Premium Indoor Full Nug Flower: made with 100% indoor cultivated flower.

"Claybourne was built on a passion for pushing boundaries, and we're excited to bring that spirit to Canadian adult-use consumers," said Nick Ortega, President & CEO, Claybourne. "From the start, our focus has been on crafting innovative, high-quality flower and infused pre-rolls that give consumers an elevated experience they can't find anywhere else. We can't wait to introduce Claybourne Frosted Flyers and for Canadian adults to enjoy the unique quality and creativity that defines our brand."

Claybourne Frosted Flyers Infused Pre-Rolls will be available in five offerings – each as part of a 1.5G 3-pack, as well as a 5 x 0.5G (2.5G total) Variety Pack.

• Blue Dream 3x0.5g pack (sativa): 42-48% THC (myrcene, pinene and caryophyllene)
