Say hello to the new Releaf Starter Kits: PAX or Storz & Bickel

6 min read

January 16, 2026

Sam North

starter kits

Available right now, Releaf’s new Starter Kits give patients the choice between the compact PAX Mini and the medical-grade Storz & Bickel Venty. Each kit includes carefully selected accessories and CBD products designed to support precise, effective administration of prescribed medical cannabis. Available exclusively through the Releaf Shop for anyone with a Releaf login.

As the most trusted medical cannabis clinic in the UK, we pay full attention to every detail of our patients' treatment experience, and one of the most important parts of that journey is having the right UK medical cannabis Starter Kit from the very beginning.

Contents

Starting medical cannabis treatment can feel a little unfamiliar for many new patients, but no one should have to walk those first few steps without full confidence in their chosen treatment. Having access to the best administration equipment and accessories, along with clear and simple guidance, can make the beginning of medical cannabis treatment far more comfortable, consistent, and hopefully, as effective as possible.

That’s why, starting right now, every single person with a Releaf Patient Dashboard login can access two new Starter Kits designed to make prescribed medical cannabis treatment easier to begin and maintain. 

The PAX Mini Starter Kit: portable precision and discretion for prescribed medical cannabis use

The Pax Mini is synonymous with high quality, discreet design, and super effortless usability. Equal parts compact and reliable, it delivers patients consistent vapour through a carefully controlled conduction heating chamber. 

  • The Pax Mini offers steady cannabinoid and terpene vaporisation with a long battery life (80 to 120 minutes of continuous use per charge), which works out to between 8 and 15 sessions from a full charge. The inclusion of an accelerometer and a lip sensor helps sustain battery life by going into standby mode as soon as it is not being actively used.
  • It has been designed with convenience, ease of use, and comfort in mind, easily fitting into daily routines without the need for any complex setup.
  • Every Releaf Pax Mini Starter Kit comes with a PAX Puck Press, a purpose-made proprietary accessory that helps compress ground flower evenly to maintain smooth airflow.

The rapid heat-up timing, easy-to-understand controls, and almost zero maintenance make for a medical cannabis vaporiser that offers a dependable, discreet, and straightforward way for Releaf patients to take their prescribed medical cannabis flower.

The Storz & Bickel Venty Starter Kit: clinical performance with adjustable control

Storz & Bickel have been the most trusted name in the medical cannabis vaporising industry for decades, thanks to their wide range of devices being the standard setters for precision, dosage control, and reliability. 

The Venty is the company’s newest device, and won Vaporiser of the Year at the 2024 EMJAYS International Cannabis Awards.

  • With a heating unit that combines conduction and convection, the Venty maintains an extremely stable and precise temperature throughout each session.
  • Patients have full control over both the maximum heating temperature and airflow through the device, which allows for extremely precise fine-tuning of the vapour density during administration. 
  • Designed and built to the highest German engineering standards, the Venty is widely praised throughout global medical cannabis markets as one of the best portable dry herb vaporisers.
  • Every Releaf Storz & Bickel Starter Kit includes a Storz & Bickel Dosing Capsule Magazine, which holds 8 dosing capsules. These can be pre-filled with ground medical cannabis and help Releaf patients to prepare accurate, consistent doses in advance.
  • The dual high-capacity lithium-ion batteries allow the unit to heat up in just 20 seconds, with a full charge lasting around 90 minutes (and USB-C charging support, including fast-charge capabilities)

The Venty really does set the standard when it comes to durability, precision, and reliability in the medical cannabis vaporiser world.

What do both Releaf Starter Kits include?

Before we go any further, let us just point out - both options offer fantastic results. The main reason we decided to offer two options was so that every Releaf patient can choose a Starter Kit that suits their health needs, their lifestyle, and their prescription. 

Beyond the vaporiser unit (and each priority filling accessory), both options include almost exactly the same range of carefully selected items designed to support your medical cannabis treatment.

Releaf Puck (grinder)

The Releaf Puck is a little different to most of the cheap and nasty cannabis grinders you will find on the market. No plastic, wood, or low-grade metal in sight. The last thing we want for our patients is contamination or residue from poor-quality materials finding its way into their prescribed medication.

Made from durable metal with a premium ceramic coating, the Releaf Puck is designed to deliver a smoother, more consistent grind with less sticking over time. This also makes it easier to use if you have reduced grip strength, pain, stiffness, tremor, or other movement-related symptoms, as the grinder turns more smoothly and requires less force to get an even result.

Ceramic-coated grinders are often considered the gold standard, and for good reason. The coating helps reduce friction and resin build-up, so the grinder stays smoother, cleaner, and more reliable with regular use. In other words, it is less “battle of the wrists” and more “twist, done”. Unlike plastic grinders (which can wear down and shed microplastics) or cheaper metal grinders (which can degrade through repeated grinding and friction), the Releaf Puck is built to keep performing as it should.

The end result is a uniform medical cannabis flower grind that supports efficient airflow and more even vaporisation, helping you get the most from your prescribed flower in a dry herb vaporiser.

BRITISH CANNABIS™ Refined CBD Oil

Both of the new Releaf Starter Kits come with a bottle of CBD by British Cannabis Refined CBD Oil, 100% produced right here in the UK and fully lab tested for CBD purity and strength.

The PAX Starter Kit includes a 500 mg bottle, while the Storz & Bickel version comes with a 1000 mg concentration for those patients who would like a higher-strength option as part of their wellness routine. 

BRITISH CANNABIS™ Full Plant Extract CBD Gummies (10mg each, Lime Flavour)

No matter if you decide to go with the Venty or the Pax Mini Starter Kit, both include 60 lime-flavoured gummies, each providing 10 mg of CBD. These are seen as the pinnacle of UK CBD edible options, with cold-press extraction preserving the full spectrum of naturally occurring cannabinoids and terpenes. 

When and where can I buy my Releaf Starter Kit?

Both of our brand new Starter Kits are available right now from the Releaf Shop, which can be accessed through the Releaf Patient Dashboard.
