The QU4D Won Best Edible in New Jersey

Our Strawberry Lemonade QU4D Mini Kickers won Best Edible in New Jersey at the 2026 NECANN Cup of Champions.

The award came a little over a year after our first gummies reached New Jersey shelves. For most out-of-state brands, New Jersey is a new market. For us it was a homecoming. Our family's story started here, and in 2025 we came back with a state manufacturing and distribution license and four and a half years of Oregon extraction experience behind us.

Those years were spent in Estacada, Oregon, a small town southeast of Portland. The brothers behind Mule moved west to learn from the best in one of the country's most established cannabis markets, with a plan to bring what they learned back home to New Jersey. Along the way, they fell in love with everything Oregon has to offer. Winning Best Edible in the state where our family started means a lot to everyone at Mule.

"This one was hard-earned," said John Sampson, owner of Mule Extracts. "We put years of work into learning this craft in Oregon, and the whole point was to bring it home. Winning Best Edible in New Jersey means the world to us."

Four cannabinoids, equal parts

Classic flavor meets a cannabis experience unlike any other. The QU4D was the first edible in both Oregon and New Jersey to pack four cannabinoids into every bite: THC, CBD, CBN and CBG in an even 1:1:1:1 split, for 400mg of total cannabinoids per pack. In New Jersey, the QU4D comes as Mini Kickers. Each pack holds ten 10mg pieces, for 100mg each of THC, CBD, CBN and CBG per bag. The QU4D is a hybrid ratio gummy, made to deliver the full "entourage effect," with all four cannabinoids working together for a balanced, creative ride from start to finish. The goal was a gummy where head and body show up together, instead of one arriving long before the other. Splitting it into 10mg pieces lets people find the amount that works for them and gives anyone newer to edibles an easy place to start.

What it tastes like

Sweet strawberry hits first, then bright, tart lemonade right behind it. It tastes like the last warm night of summer.

Proven in Oregon first

The QU4D earned its place on Oregon shelves before it ever reached New Jersey. Mule is stocked at more than 270 Oregon dispensaries, and the QU4D has been a steady seller there.

We brought the same formula east: equal parts THC, CBD, CBG and CBN, in the same strawberry lemonade flavor. Oregon customers already knew it, so we were confident in the recipe. Seeing it win in a brand-new market told us it holds up.

That's also why the Best Edible sticker goes on the 10-piece QU4D pack only. The award belongs to this gummy, and we want people to know exactly which one won.

Thank you, New Jersey

New Jersey dispensary buyers took a chance on a brand most of the state hadn't heard of a year ago, and budtenders kept recommending it to customers who asked what was good. This award is a direct result of that. Thank you.

The QU4D is on shelves at licensed dispensaries across New Jersey, and the 10-piece packs now carry a Best Edible sticker. You can find a store near you on our New Jersey locations page. If your shop doesn't carry it yet, ask for it by name.

If you already like the QU4D, look for its siblings. Day QU4D comes in Blue Razz Lemonade and Nite QU4D in Blackberry Lemonade, and both are made the same way.
