Let me ask you this: who walks into a liquor store and asks for the beer with the highest alcohol content?

Binge-watching Netflix seldom yields any level of worthy thought past the chips, couch and beer extravaganza that is my weekend. But in this case, I have to say that the most recent addition to the ‘Narcos’ series has proven to be the exception. ‘Narcos: Mexico’ (which I strongly recommend to all of my fellow weed […]
Guest post by Ryan Duffy. I was initially skeptical of what the development of the Cannabis Sommelier would mean for the average user. The word ‘sommelier’ invokes images of the wine tastings, gently shaking the glasses, sparing sips, elegant hand positions and passionate debates about history and sensory experience. I imagined Cannabis Sommeliers circling around […]
