Orange County CBD: Range, Strengths and the FSA List Explained (UK)

Who are Orange County CBD?

Despite the Californian name, Orange County CBD is a UK company. Its website gives a Liverpool address and says the brand began in 2019 after its two founders visited California. It says it sources its CBD from certified farms in the United States.

Its UK shop is orangecounty-cbd.com; similar-named discount code sites aren’t the brand.

What does Orange County CBD sell?

Here is the range on Orange County CBD’s UK website on 9 November 2026, with the FSA public list status we found for each group:

The gummies come as bears, worms, strawberries, cherries, peach rings, cubes and bottles. The site also sells a few non-CBD products, such as caffeine gummies and shilajit. We didn’t see CBD capsules for sale when we checked.

We aren’t rating these products. To compare brands, see choosing a CBD oil in the UK.

Orange County CBD oil strengths and how much is 10mg

The number on the bottle is the total CBD, not the amount in each serving, so check the bottle size too. For example, its 1,000mg oil in 30ml is about 33mg of CBD per ml, while its 1,000mg oil in 10ml is 100mg per ml, three times as strong.

Drop sizes vary between droppers, so measure by the ml marks on the pipette. A full pipette of the stronger oils holds many times the FSA’s 10mg a day figure.

For every strength and percentage explained, see CBD oil strengths: mg, % and how much is 10mg.

Full spectrum, broad spectrum and THC

Orange County CBD sells both types of oil, which matters if THC is a concern:

• Unflavoured oils are full spectrum. The site says they contain “only trace amounts of THC”. Ingredients are listed as full spectrum hemp-derived CBD, MCT oil and terpenes.
• Flavoured oils are broad spectrum. The mint, cherry and apple oils are described as “0% THC”, with a footnote saying “No detectable traces to the 6th decimal”. Ingredients are listed as broad spectrum CBD, MCT oil and natural flavourings.

Orange County CBD’s own FAQ says full spectrum products could show up on a workplace drug test if used regularly. If you drive, are tested at work or play sport, a product whose lab report shows THC not detected is the safer choice. See does CBD show up on a drug test? and CBD and driving in the UK.

Orange County CBD gummies: mg per gummy

Orange County CBD’s gummies are broad spectrum, and the pages we checked list pectin rather than gelatine. The strength per gummy depends on the tub, so check that figure rather than the total:

• Small tubs of gummy bears: 25 gummies, so 16mg each in the 400mg tub, 32mg in the 800mg tub and 48mg in the 1,200mg tub.
• Grab bags: 200mg in a bag of 8 worms, which is 25mg per worm.
• Large tubs: the 1,600mg tub of strawberries holds 70 gummies, about 23mg each. The 4,800mg tubs are much stronger: 69mg per strawberry on the FSA list entry.

Even the lowest-strength gummy we found, at 16mg, is above the FSA’s 10mg a day figure; oils let you measure smaller amounts. Our guide to CBD oil vs gummies compares the two formats.

Is Orange County CBD legal in the UK?

CBD food products (oils, gummies, capsules and drinks) sold in England and Wales need to appear on the FSA’s public list, which covers products with a credible application for authorisation. The FSA has told local authorities that products marked “Validated” or “Awaiting evidence” may stay on the market while applications are assessed, and that products missing from the list or marked “Removed” must be withdrawn.

When we downloaded the list on 9 November 2026 (register last updated 13 April 2026), it had more than 130 entries marked “Validated” with Orange County CBD in the product name, all linked to application RP427. They include the broad spectrum flavoured oils (mint, cherry, apple and other flavours) and the gummy ranges. Nine more Orange County CBD entries are marked “Removed”, including its Full Spectrum CBD MCT oils from 500mg to 25,000mg (updated 26 September 2023) and 60mg broad spectrum gel capsules.

For its unflavoured full spectrum oils, Orange County CBD’s product pages say: “Our full-spectrum oils are cold-pressed and FSA approval is not required.” If being on the list matters to you, search it for the exact product name and strength, or ask the brand.

What about the FSA’s September 2026 decision? RP427 is one of the first three applications the FSA has recommended to ministers for authorisation, all for high-purity CBD (at least 98% pure) for adults at up to 10mg a day. Ministers still make the final decision. Our guide to the FSA’s first CBD approvals explains what it could mean.

Northern Ireland follows different rules: the FSA says CBD food products there are unauthorised novel foods. For the wider legal picture, see is CBD legal in the UK?

The 10mg advice. In October 2023 the FSA’s advisers set a provisional acceptable daily intake of 10mg of CBD a day for a healthy 70kg adult. The FSA doesn’t recommend CBD for under-18s, anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive, or people taking any medication, unless under medical direction. You may still see the older 70mg figure online. More in the CBD daily limit in the UK.

How to take Orange County CBD oil

The product pages we checked had no directions for use; the brand’s FAQ advises starting low and increasing gradually. For any CBD oil:

1. Shake the bottle.
2. Work out how much oil is 10mg from the CBD per ml (see the table above) and measure by the ml marks, rather than using a full pipette.
3. Place the oil under your tongue, hold for about a minute, then swallow.
4. Take it with or after food, at about the same time each day.
5. Keep a note of how much you take, and check with your GP or pharmacist first if you take any medication.

Orange County CBD for sleep or anxiety?

Whatever the brand, here is where things stand:

• CBD isn’t a treatment. There are no authorised health claims for CBD in the UK, and Orange County CBD’s own product pages say its products “are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.”
• The research is still early. Most human studies on CBD and sleep or anxiety are small or short, with mixed results. Our guide to CBD and anxiety goes through the trials honestly.
• See your GP if you’ve had trouble sleeping for months, if changing your sleep habits hasn’t helped, or if anxiety or poor sleep is making daily life hard to cope with.

If you’d like a CBD oil as part of an evening routine, our guide to choosing a CBD oil for sleep explains what to look for.

Where to buy Orange County CBD oil in the UK

You can buy Orange County CBD oil direct from its own website, orangecounty-cbd.com, which sells the full range, or from Boots. On 9 November 2026, boots.com listed 14 Orange County CBD products: broad spectrum mint, cherry and apple oils from 500mg to 1,500mg (10ml and 30ml) and three gummy packs. We didn’t see its full spectrum oils at Boots.

The brand’s FAQ says it ships worldwide, apart from a handful of countries. See our guide to CBD at Boots for the other brands it stocks.

Wherever you buy, check the mg per serving, the product’s FSA list entry and a recent lab report (Orange County CBD publishes reports for its broad spectrum oils, gummies, balms and vapes). See how to read CBD lab reports.

Where Evopure fits

Evopure isn’t connected with Orange County CBD. Here’s what we can tell you about our own oils:

• All broad spectrum, 0% THC. We don’t sell full spectrum oils.
• On the FSA public list, linked to validated applications RP438, RP821 and RP47, which means they can be sold while those applications are assessed.
• Botanical blends. Sleep CBD Oil adds passion flower and a terpene blend led by myrcene, Flow CBD Oil adds ashwagandha and maca, and Relief CBD Oil adds turmeric and black pepper extract.
• Simple strengths. Broad Spectrum CBD Oil: 500mg, 1,000mg or 2,000mg in 10ml: about 0.2ml, 0.1ml or 0.05ml gives 10mg.

Everything is vegan, made in the UK and tested by ISO 17025 accredited labs, with reports on request from our lab testing page. Our products are for adults (18+) only, and we don’t recommend our products during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

The FSA’s 10mg a day figure is precautionary advice rather than a legal limit, set while longer-term safety research continues. At Evopure we think it is a very cautious figure, and many adults use more. If you go above it, increase slowly, and check with your GP or pharmacist first if you take any medication.
