CBD has taken the UK wellness market by storm – and for good reason. Many people are turning to CBD to support relaxation, manage stress, and promote general wellbeing. But what exactly is CBD, how is it used in vaping, and what are the different types? 

What is CBD? 

CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp. Unlike THC – the compound in cannabis that produces a high – CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning it won’t make you feel intoxicated. 

Instead, it may offer calming effects and support a sense of balance. While research is still ongoing, many people in the UK now include CBD in their daily routine – often through vaping. 

Is CBD Legal in the UK? 

Yes – CBD is legal in the UK, but there are important rules: 

  • It must be extracted from EU-approved hemp strains. 
  • It must contain no detectable levels of THC. 
  • It must be marketed as a food supplement, not a medicine. 
  • Products must comply with UK Novel Food regulations and avoid unproven health claims. 

At Vapourium, we take these laws seriously. That’s why we only stock fully compliant, lab-tested CBD products – such as Dope Goat CBD Shots, which are made with pure CBD isolate and contain no THC whatsoever. 

Types of CBD: What’s the Difference? 

There are three main types of CBD, and understanding them can help you choose the right option for your needs: 

1. CBD Isolate (What We Stock) 

  • Contains pure CBD only – all other cannabinoids, terpenes, and THC are removed. 
  • Completely flavourless and THC-free. 
  • Ideal for beginners, those who are drug-tested, or anyone wanting just CBD. 

Vapourium’s Pick:

✅ Dope Goat CBD Shots – THC-free, tasteless, and easy to mix into your shortfill e-liquids. 

2. Broad-Spectrum CBD 

  • Contains CBD plus other beneficial compounds from hemp (such as minor cannabinoids and terpenes), but without THC. 
  • Often used for the “entourage effect” – a theory that cannabinoids work better together. 

Broad-spectrum is a middle-ground option for people who want more plant compounds, without any trace of THC. 

3. Full-Spectrum CBD 

  • Contains CBD, other cannabinoids, terpenes – and small, legally allowed traces of THC. 
  • Must still comply with UK law, meaning no detectable THC in final products. 
  • May offer a stronger entourage effect, but isn’t suitable for those who are drug-tested or avoiding THC. 

How to Use CBD in Your Vape

At Vapourium, we make it easy to get started. Our Dope Goat CBD Shots come in 10ml bottles that you can mix with your favourite shortfills. Here’s how: 

  1. Remove a little liquid from your 50ml or 100ml shortfill bottle. 
  2. Add in your CBD shot. 
  3. Shake well and vape as usual. 

Top Tip: Start with a low dose and increase gradually. Effects vary depending on your body and routine. 

Why Vapourium Only Stocks CBD Isolate 

We’ve chosen to stock CBD isolate products because they offer: 

  • Total peace of mind for new users 
  • Zero THC – ideal for professionals and safety-conscious vapers 
  • Neutral flavour – won’t interfere with your chosen e-liquid 

We believe isolate offers the most accessible and versatile introduction to CBD vaping. 

Final Thoughts 

CBD is legal, safe when used correctly, and increasingly popular as part of a daily wellness routine. Whether you’re looking to relax or simply explore the potential benefits of cannabidiol, CBD vaping is a convenient and effective option.
