OOKA Expands Offerings with the Launch of Pacific Realms CBD Pods in the United States

CHARLOTTE, N.C., March 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OOKA, manufactured and distributed by Advanced Inhalation Rituals (AIR), is proud to announce the launch of Pacific Realms CBD Pods in the United States. Pacific Realms CBD pods will be available in three blends, including Calm (vanilla and mint), Dream (mango and chamomile) and Soothe (apple mint and ashwagandha).

These new pods expand OOKA's lineup, which currently includes Al Fakher tobacco pods, the world's leading hookah brand, and Zodiac nicotine-free, tea-based molasses pods. OOKA pods contain authentic hookah molasses, tea-based molasses or CBD-rich hemp flower and are hand-packed with care.

Earlier in 2025, OOKA teamed up with Cookies, a globally renowned brand, to introduce a new line of tea-based, non-nicotine pods and pure, authentic hookah tobacco pods. The Cookies x OOKA partnership will include CBD pods in the coming months. This partnership merges OOKA's advanced, charcoal-free hookah technology with Cookies' premium, artisanal options, giving customers unique sessions that go beyond traditional hookah.

OOKA, the future of hookah, offers a sleek, portable and charcoal-free design. It provides a new and modern way to experience hookah through its state-of-the-art pod system and heating technology. In comparison to traditional hookah, OOKA requires no charcoal and eliminates the inconvenience of preparation, ash and mess. Easy to assemble, it utilizes a pod-based system, heats up in only five minutes, and each pod provides 45 to 60-minute sessions.

OOKA's advanced heating technology ensures each pod is heated to optimum temperature by reading a smart NFC chip unique to each pod. This allows the pod to communicate the heating profile to the OOKA device, delivering consistent sessions every time. Its premium-grade aluminum pod capsules with nano perforations ensure ideal heat distribution and enhanced airflow.

"We're excited to expand the OOKA experience with the introduction of Pacific Realms CBD Pods," said Ashley Bock, marketing director of the Americas at AIR. "As consumers continue to seek innovative ways to enjoy CBD, OOKA's Pacific Realms pods provide customers with a new and modern way to experience CBD."

OOKA is committed to transparency and safety. All of the CBD products are tested by third-party labs and are accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) to ensure they meet federal legal and health standards.

In the U.S., the OOKA device sells for $399. The Pacific Realms CBD pods are sold in packs of two for $16 and are available in most states across the U.S. For more information or to make a purchase, visit us.ooka.com.
