High Tide Cannabis Co. Making Waves In Washington Recreational Market

The High Tide Cannabis Company is a brand new garden out of Tacoma ready to rise above the competition in 2018. They just announced their debut as a Tier 2 i-502 producer on December 16th, 2017, claiming that they are a company created by pot snobs for pot snobs. Now, I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a pot snob, I’m more of a cannaseur if you will. But regardless of my title, I’ll be rolling with High Tide.

Upon first glance on the shelf, the appeal of this packaging alone would make any aesthetically fueled customer buy it. I’m usually more inclined to buy my weed in a jar because bags can get squished easily and compress or break down the nugs. As an added bonus most jars conceal the smell almost entirely. High Tide uses a wooden logo engraved lid complete with a silicon washer to seal in the aroma. I’ll be honest, the “pop” noise it makes when taken off is pretty satisfying too.

A familiar kind of face to the Northwest, you see a fisherman in the center of the label smoking on his pipe. You can measure how far out the tide is with their handy dandy Tide Gauge. The Tangie strain that I picked up at The Pot Stop ranked in at a three, halfway between chill and thrill.

Tangie

“This vibrant sativa hybrid triggers creativity and liveliness with tasty hints of tangerine.”

-High Tide

As per usual, I rolled about a gram into a blunt. The bud felt fresh, but with a hint of moisture to let you know the plant was secreting oily goodness throughout its growth. Every single leaf was wearing a fur coat glistening with trichomes that glistened from the core.

Once you break a nug open, a sweet and warm smell takes over your nostrils. Imagine grabbing a tangerine for breakfast, but instead of eating it right away it spends all day in your pocket.

You wander around as it gets warmer by your side until you stumble across a freshly bloomed flower garden. Finally peeling the rind away, heavy notes of citrus cover your hands and sinuses while the flowers and dirt cut into your palette.

The first half of the blunt was smooth and flavorful. A wave of relaxation consumed my body while every muscle relaxed. It felt like a brand new day, my mind cleared and the music in my headphones intensified.

As my blunt dwindled, my heart and mind started racing each other. My thoughts outpaced my steps as I got lost in the sea of tourists around Pike Place. I was hyperfocused for a couple of hours, but not on petty thoughts. The euphoria brought on allowed me to observe and absorb the world around me.

A couple hours later, after I had gone home, I sobered up in a flash. I felt a little tired, but that could have been induced by a long day of work or the very little water I drank. To avoid an intense cotton mouth, I would recommend filling a water bottle up before indulging in this cerebral sativa.
