BUD TRIP 2022 :: What state has the best bud in America?

Of course most readers will argue that California has the best bud and normally I tend not disagree. However we wanted to put the myth to bed and go see which state had the best gas in America for ourselves. Massachusetts , Colorado and Washington would be the states we selected as the test subjects.

 First up was Massachusetts and there was no comparison to the west coast cannabis culture. The prices where too high and the market was over-saturated with bullshit weed. The best dispensary was Pure Oasis in Boston on Blue Hill Ave. Best selection of top shelf strains, decent prices and the vibe around this place is bananas. Westport, MA had a few dispensaries we visited but it was hard to find that pressure we find in Cali. Note: All flower in the state of Massachusetts must be grown in state. (Medical and Recreational) This was a no brainer on the bud but the clam chowder the best you will ever find just BYOB before you venture to MA.

Next up we headed out west to the Great State of Washington. So how can I describe this mind fuck in less than a thousand words... The prices of bud in this state are fucking unbelievable to begin with and not in a bad way. The quality of bud was so close to the quality of the shit we smoke from Cali. I was so stoned I found myself looking for the Hollywood sign in the hills.

Our next stop was Colorado as we set up shop in the Denver region. We visited several of the dispensaries throughout the city and found that some of the dispensaries where very expensive like the commercial STARBUDS where if you spend over $200k you have earned enough points for a TESLA. Two of our favorite dispsensaries were of course COOKIES as this was the first location to open outside of California which was to our delight and the other was FLAME which had the best prices and product within the entire Denver Metropolitan area. 

This trip we visited over 50+ dispensaries and smoked dozens of strains. Colorado was the winner for us as COOKIES alone woud shut down any shop in the state of Washington or Massachusetts in our opinion. Every year another shop opens or another state becomes recreationally legal like Missouri did in 2023. So as the industry grows we will continue to travel to find the best flower across the globe. 2024 we will set out on an International Smoke Adventure that will be journaled online through our social media outlets.
