Well all the tinctures ive seen are made with strong alcohol. Maybe it triggers the thing that makes you not able to drink?

Its non addictive so there shouldnt be any dependancy issues... There are TONS of way to ingest other than tincture. Try making some cannabutter. You can put it on toast or food, even bake cookies or other food with it!

For a very good vape at a cheap price check out the launch box by magic flight. You can get a kit for about 100 bucks and it has a lifetime warranty.
