Frequently Asked Questions
Hey there! Discover answers to frequently asked questions and dive deeper into the world of Yogi Blends products and policies.
Yogi blends are herbal mixes crafted from familiar plants from all corners of the globe! Think Rose, Raspberry, Mullein, Peppermint, Damiana, Mugwort, Marshmellow, and Lavender, just to name a few of the legal, smokeable herbs you'll find in our blends. Each blend is free of tobacco, nicotine, and additives. They can be enjoyed in multiple ways - as a smoke, steeped in water, used as a vape substitute, or even burned as incense. So many options for you to explore! ๐ฟ
Please take note of the Surgeon Generalโs warning about the health risks of smoking. Even though our blends are free of additives, chemicals, and pesticides, inhaling smoke can still be harmful. Please be cautious.
It is important to remember that our blends are not recommended for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid using our herbs when operating heavy machinery, including driving.
At Bear Blend, we do not have licensed herbalists or healthcare professionals on our team. Therefore, we are unable to provide diagnoses, prescriptions, or make any claims about our herbs. It is best to consult with a medical professional before using our blends, especially if you are taking medications or are pregnant.
For further information, please refer to the Health section below!
Our Original Blends are made with 100% organic, legal herbs. Rest assured, these blends are safe to enjoy and won't cause any problems with toxicology screenings! ๐
"Trying herbal blends is a fantastic way to ease off tobacco! We suggest starting with a blend of 50% herbal and 50% tobacco. Depending on your daily tobacco intake, you may want to adjust the ratio. Remember, smoking is personal, so do what feels best for you!
After a few puffs or days, reduce the tobacco to 40% and increase the herbal blend to 60%. Gradually decrease the tobacco until you're smoking 100% herbal blend!
Keep in mind that tobacco and dry herbs smoke differently. For more information, check out our โHow to Smoke Prerollsโ guide. Happy smoking!"
To start, it's important to note that herbs can affect each person differently. The effects can vary, but knowing the intended purpose can give you an idea of what to expect. Some of the herbs in our blends, like skullcap, valerian, and hops, are known for their soothing and relaxing properties. On the other hand, herbs like yerba mate, peppermint, and calamus are more stimulating and energizing. Each herb has its own unique characteristics and effects depending on the individual. We encourage everyone to experiment responsibly and discover what works best for them!
Now, the question on everyone's minds: will these herbal blends get you high? In short, no, they won't give you that "cannabis" high. That kind of high is specific to cannabis and won't be replicated with our blends. So, rest assured, you can enjoy the benefits of these herbs without experiencing a cannabis-like high.
When it comes to herbal blends, they offer a unique smoking experience compared to other options! One big reason for this is how the smoke is made. Traditional smokes like tobacco and cannabis go through a curing process to lock in moisture, which creates a big cloud of smoke when you exhale. This can give you a strong throat hit and require more heat and a heavy pull to burn properly.
On the other hand, our dry herb blends don't have that moisture, so they burn more easily. This means you don't need as much heat or pulling power, but too much can cause them to burn too quickly and impact the taste and effects. Plus, without the water vapor to collect ash, you won't see as much visible smoke.
Don't worry though, you'll still get all the benefits of the herbs in a different smoking experience!
Smoking is a personal journey. Some enjoy it every now and then, while others smoke all day long. It's important to take it slow and know your limits when trying a new blend. As long as you stay mindful of how herbs affect you, feel free to smoke to your heart's content!
Don't worry, our blends won't go bad if stored properly (in a cool, dry, dark place)! But they may lose some potency over time.
Every blend is labeled with a best buy date. They are at their most potent for the first 24 months, and gradually decrease in strength after that. So even if the expiration date is approaching, the effects will simply be a little weaker, not gone entirely.
While we have carefully crafted each blend with a specific purpose in mind, feel free to get creative and mix things up! We love when people safely experiment with herbs!
Just keep in mind that different herbs can have different strengths, so make sure you understand how they might affect you. For example, herbs like lobelia should be used in moderation. But don't worry, that doesn't mean lobelia is off-limits for you!

Our Pack and Ship services are available Monday through Friday, with the exception of holidays. We partner with the United States Postal Service (USPS) for all deliveries. USPS typically delivers packages within 3-5 business days after receiving them.
If you prefer a different shipping service, feel free to reach out to us at hello@yogiblends.com. We would be delighted to provide you with shipping quotes for your consideration!
Here are a couple of reasons why your package might be taking longer than expected to arrive!
- USPS update delay: USPS sometimes takes 24-48 hours to update the package's location, so it could still be on its way to the facility. Sometimes they also skip the original scan-in, so don't worry if you don't see an update right away. Your package may pop up closer to your address soon and be delivered shortly after.
- Small batch production: We craft our herbal blends in small batches, so it's possible that we've run out of stock. In that case, it may take a few days to restock and get everything out to you promptly. If you're wondering about the status of your package, feel free to reach out to hello@yogiblends.com for assistance.
We appreciate your patience, and we'll do our best to make sure your order gets to you as soon as possible!
We understand that some customers value privacy! Our shipments are discreetly packaged in plain manila bubble envelopes or brown boxes, depending on the size of the order.
While the packaging does not have any visible branding, there are references to Yogi Blends on the label.
If you have concerns, simply leave a note in the Order Notes section during checkout requesting discreet packaging.
Our pack and ship team will do their best to accommodate your request, but please be aware that Yogi Blends will still be listed as the return address.
If you prefer, you can also request to "Remove the Return Company Name" for an extra layer of confidentiality. It may look a bit unusual, but rest assured no mention of Yogi Blends will appear on the outside of the package!
