Tauriga Sciences Inc. Plans Summertime Re-Launch of its Flagship Tauri-Gum Brand in the New York City Metropolitan Area Marketplace

The Company has Established Relationships with Hundreds of Distinct NY Metro Area Retail Locations (i.e. Supermarkets, Delis, Kiosks, Specialty Grocers, Pharmacies, Smoke Shops, etc.)

NEW YORK, NY, June 05, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: TAUG) (“Tauriga” or the “Company”), a revenue generating, diversified life sciences Company, with proprietary CBD & CBG infused chewing gums and edibles product(s) as well as two ongoing Biotechnology initiatives, today announced its planned Summertime re-launch of its flagship Tauri-Gum™ brand in the New York City Metropolitan area (“NY Metro”) retail marketplace. Recall that during the spring of 2019, the Company successfully launched its Mint Flavor Tauri-Gum™ product (CBD Infused) in the NY Metro area marketplace. Due to a subsequent ruling by the New York City Council (applicable to the entire CBD edibles sector), the Company was forced to withdraw from the NYC Metro market.

The Company has recently disclosed its Immune Booster version of Tauri-Gum™ (Pear Bellini Flavor), which contains NO Phytocannabinoids. Each piece of Immune Booster Tauri-Gum™ chewing gum contains 60mg Vitamin C & 10mg Elemental Zinc. Therefore, it is perfectly legal to sell this product version, in the NY Metro area retail marketplace. With access to its previously established relationships in the NY Metro area, the Company has decided to re-launch its flagship Tauri-Gum™ brand during this upcoming Summer. Should the NYC City Council ultimately lift the CBD Edibles ban, the Company will have an existing infrastructure in place, to efficiently and effectively capitalize.
