A Certificate of Analysis is only useful if you actually check it. Here is the one-minute routine we recommend for any product, from any shop — including ours.
Step 1 — Match the batch, not the product
Find the batch or lot number on your packaging. A COA for the product in general proves little; the certificate must name the exact batch in your hand.
Step 2 — Check the lab, the date, and the signature
The document should name an independent laboratory, carry a test date consistent with the shelf life, and be signed or verifiable on the lab\u2019s own site.
Step 3 — Read two numbers
First, the cannabinoid content: does the measured value match the label within a reasonable tolerance? Second, the THC result: it must sit inside the legal limit for your country and match the product\u2019s declared class.
Step 4 — Scan, don\u2019t trust screenshots
Use the QR code on the packaging or the Lab Reports library in our Trust Center. A COA that exists only as a picture in a product photo is a red flag anywhere on the internet.
