Despite including this in their presentation, they have yet to take any further action on it or provide an update to shareholders. It seems rather odd to put something into an investor presentation and then take no steps further, unless you decided put it on the backburner and wait to acquire or partner with another company that would carry out the production for you.
Enter Tinley. Tinley has made the below statement in multiple news releases, starting back in September of last year:
“Tinley is now offering a turnkey solution to install and operate bottling equipment to manufacture the Tinley products in the facilities of legally-licensed cannabis producers. As part of this new service offering by Tinley, the Company will source and install bottling equipment in the cannabis producer's facilities and will train its employees to operate the equipment. This solution will enable licensed cannabis producers to produce Tinley and other drinks infused with their own cannabis extract. The company is in discussions with licensed cannabis producers in Canada and the USA about Tinley '27 and its turnkey bottling and manufacturing solution.”
When Tinley announced their Tinley ‘27 brand, there were 3 distinct flavours: Whisky, Rum, and Amaretto. But then a couple months later, Beacon Securities (a full-service independent investment dealer in Canada) sent out an analysis report to al of its clients stating that Tinley is also making a Gin flavour. See link below (you may have to refresh the page more than once):

The Gin flavour just got slipped into there like it was a well-known fact.
So, we have Tinley announcing their intent to partner with LPs in Canada; we have Canopy announcing they are releasing a Gin product, and then we have Beacon Securities leaking that Tinley now has a Gin product, which Tinley never announced itself. It makes you wonder why they didn't announce it and why we haven’t heard anything from either company since. This is how you read between the lines and realize that they are keeping it under wraps until recreational legislation is announced in Canada. A partnership will be announced in due time, which will be huge for Tinley.
Oh and if that wasn’t enough for you, David Posner (the CEO of Nutritional High) was a board member for Tinley until recently…and Nutritional High did consulting work for Canopy back in 2015 and 2016:

Do with this information what you will, but know that my firm now has a heavy position in Tinley and we will continue to buy more shares as we get closer to April 20
