明尼阿波利斯大麻饮品商家抢在联邦新法前调整 12月11日起四氢大麻酚上限0.4毫克
明尼苏达州亨内平县明尼阿波利斯市的大麻饮品与食品商家正在抢在联邦新法生效前调整经营。
联邦新法将于12月11日生效，把大麻衍生产品的四氢大麻酚（THC）含量上限压到0.4毫克，而明尼苏达州现行市场允许饮品与食品中 THC 含量最高10毫克。明尼苏达州2022年将大麻衍生 THC 产品合法化，带动了这一产业的繁荣。
南明尼阿波利斯的 Northern Coffeeworks 表示，THC 饮品与食品已成为店内除咖啡外的热门产品，但上周得知其收款服务商 Square 将不再处理 THC 产品交易；Square 方面表示，公司自8月起已开始通知商家，以配合即将到来的联邦限制。Indeed Brewing 同样使用 Square，已把大麻产品销售改为只收现金。业内人士表示，新法生效后，明尼苏达州的大麻饮品市场将面临重大调整。
Minneapolis Hemp-Drink Businesses Scramble Ahead of Federal Law Capping THC at 0.4 Milligrams on Dec. 11
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Businesses selling hemp-derived THC drinks and edibles in Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Minnesota, are scrambling to adjust before a new federal law takes effect.
The law, effective December 11, caps THC in hemp-derived products at 0.4 milligrams, while Minnesota's current market allows drinks and edibles with up to 10 milligrams. Minnesota legalized hemp-derived THC products in 2022, fueling a booming industry.
Northern Coffeeworks in south Minneapolis says THC beverages and edibles have become a popular menu item alongside coffee, but learned last week that its payment processor, Square, will no longer process THC product sales; Square says it began notifying sellers in August to comply with the coming federal restrictions. Indeed Brewing, which also uses Square, has shifted hemp product sales to cash only. Industry members say Minnesota's THC drinks market faces a major shake-up once the law takes effect.
