CannTrust Holdings Inc. ("CannTrust or the "Company") (TSX: TRST), one of Canada's leading licensed producers and most trusted brands of medical cannabis, today announced (with a week left before legalization) a fourth recreational brand – Peak Leaf – that will be exclusively available in British Columbia.

Come October 17th, BC consumers of legal age will be able to experience a collection of cannabis products inspired by nature. This curated set of strains are rooted in the sights, smells, and sensations of the outdoors. Rich, leafy greens, earthy aromas, and fruity flavours offer a balanced approach to cannabis.

"We are very excited to add Peak Leaf to our lineup of recreational brands set to hit the cannabis market this October. We saw a gap in the BC market for a brand that celebrated our innate connection to nature and think that Peak Leaf will fill this void," said Brad Rogers, President, CannTrust. "Our focus is on providing a variety of cannabis options, specially curated to meet the needs of all age-legal Canadians. This is another example of how we are living that focused approach and really putting our consumers at the center of everything we do."

The full line up of dynamic brands launching on October 17 include:

• Peak Leaf: Nurture with nature, Peak Leaf believes a balanced lifestyle starts with wellness.

The brands are poised to stay at the forefront of the recreational cannabis market with the next generation of products already in the pipeline. Future offerings are expected to include single-serve brewing pods and a line of beverage product offerings, including a ready-to-drink sports drink that aids in recovery post-workout. These products are being developed in anticipation of edibles and concentrates becoming legal in 2019.

A Deeper Dive

• All CannTrust cannabis products are standardized to ensure a consistent product every time.
• Products are grown in a new, first of its kind, perpetual harvest technology greenhouse that produces flower more efficiently and at better quality levels than indoor facilities of the past.
• When developing a new strain, CannTrust's expert cultivation team plants hundreds of seeds, monitoring the plants from seedling through to full flower and selecting only the varieties with terpene levels and the right amount of THC and CBD as the mother plant for all future products.
