Hot drops from Stingers and Sluggers, plus more World Cup cannabis exclusives on our radar
We’re not big flag wavers. And we don’t do too many botanical dips or newfangled candy infusions. So this is an exception for something exceptional …
Havn dropped a trio of one-gram celebrations to ring in America 250. Under the banner brand, there’s a 1776 Reserve hash rosin joint. But it’s their Stingers cones, American flag filters and all, that we are lighting jumping jacks for.
On the gassy end, Havn employed Bruce Banner terps for a pun-tastic Star Spangled Banner banger. While it is an augmented sativa shooter for sure, the real shining star of this holiday is the American Dreamsicle, via Stingers Sweets.
The added natural terps on this one “pack a punch,” as in fruit punch. Unlike bug juice or even a bomb pop though, this cherry blend doesn’t permanently fuse onto your mouth and tongue. It’s smooth and naturally subtle down to the last pull, and hopefully we don’t have to wait for another quarter-millenium for it to resurface.
Scarf it down
While it’s disappointing that there haven’t been more exclusive World Cup drops, it’s also true that brands including Fernway that take merchandising seriously are riding the wave.
Add Root & Bloom to that roster as well. The Salisbury manufacturer and cultivator has a limited number of fan scarves available at its RoadTrip Dispensary, as well as at both Cannabis Connection locations (Westfield and West Springfield), House Premium in Tyngsborough, and more to come.
Finally, and this one won’t be easy to find either, is the new USA exclusive pack from Sluggers. All the kids are squaring off in dispensary queues for these limited edition tins. And by kids, we mean hardcore weed nerd collector types like us. More from their team here:
Throughout July, participating dispensaries across MA will carry Sluggers Hit‘s limited-edition USA 250 Collector’s Tin as part of Sluggers USA 250, the brand’s campaign celebrating America’s 250th anniversary under the theme “America’s Preroll.”
The campaign also includes an in-store consumer activation where visitors can enter for a chance to receive exclusive USA 250 merchandise available only through the promotion.
The launch continues Sluggers’ focus on collectible packaging and limited-edition consumer experiences while highlighting the brand’s California roots and U.S.-based cultivation and manufacturing through Sacramento-based Natura.
