Colorado Dispensary Reviews

I tried this dispensary recently over on S Pennsylvania Ave. Someone obviously shilled the reviews over at weedmaps.com or legalmarijuandispensary.com. It's got 5 out of 5 stars in every category with like 10 reviewers. Don't be fooled, it's been shilled. Anyway, I decided to check it out.

Firstly, their approach to privacy and exterior facade was much different from any dispensary that I've been to. There was a giant storefront window and looking in from the street it looked like a coffeeshop. There is only one room, so business is basically done in front of a huge storefront window! It is done at a side counter so the product isn't really in plain view of the window, but it is most likely in line of sight with the window at some point during the course of business. This seems like he is just asking for trouble! How hard would it be to just hang a black sheet in the window to dissuade nosy onlookers and just follow the damn rules!! You aren't supposed to medicate in public view, so you probably shouldn't be purchasing meds in plain view either.

So, the entire dispensary is one large room. There's a small waiting area up front with a few chairs/couches and the main dispensary area basically looks like a coffeeshop counter. He had probably 7-8 strains. 3 strains were $50/eighths and the rest were $45/eighths. The $50 strains were Ice Cream, Alaskan Ice, and Heavy-Duty. I tried the Ice Cream and Alaskan Ice (was out of Heavy-Duty). The Ice Cream was pretty good and was definitely high-quality. The $45 strains I saw were Purple Trainwreck, Durban Poison, Jawa (?), and a couple others I don't recall.

He gave me a small sample of Maple (?) buds but I overhead him telling another customer that he's not selling it because 1 person complained of mold. But I would think that if you're not selling it because of mold worries then you probably wouldn't want to give it away either!?

Anyway, this place was OK. Not much variety, but they did have 2 strains that were fire. If this place was in the 'hood I would definitely go there, but it's a bit out of the way for me, so I probably won't be back. I think at some point they're going to have to do something about their storefront window as well. I kinda like to have a bit of privacy. I have a professional job and I don't want somebody walking by seeing me purchasing cannabis in a window.

Pricing is $20/g, $50/8th, and I didn't really see if there were discounts beyond that... maybe.

Is the place you're talking about called B Goods? I saw a place today on south Penn called that. Sandwiched between a coffee shop and a restaurant.

I'd be interested in trying Ice Cream and Alaskan Ice. Reputations on them are pretty good.

Yes, that's the place!

After a night of smoking, these buds look a bit better than they actually are. I wouldn't exactly call them fire... but they're not too bad.

That Quarkle was some great smoke. I loved the tangerine... MMmmmm I went back for seconds on that one :P They had some good blueberry too. Most around here has been crap lately..
My only problem with C-3 is they have to many low quality buds. Yeah they have 40 strains but it took me 30min to find 3 that I wanted. It looked like most were grown by inexperienced growers. Id say get rid of half the strains they have or organize them better instead of just plopping 40 jars on the table...
The price is right since and they are very good people over there so I will keep going back. They can improve though

I have been going to a dispensary on yale and I-25. Its run by a family, two brothers and their mom. How cool is that. They wont ever charge more then 350 for any strain and they have discounted ones too.

Edit: oh and the Afgooi was great also. I cant forget that :P

Who do you guys think has the strongest fire? C-3 or Botanic Labs? I have been to C-3 but not Botanic. Is it worth the drive to Longmont from Ken-Caryl?

I'm going to check out Botanic Labs but only if I'm ever in the region.

That Tangerine was grown by a grower who Shane considers the best in the state. That strain puts me out in 15 minutes flat. Very sedating. Great, stable high.

Okay, so it seems like the best dispensaries in the region are finally getting noticed and its seems like the same ones get the most recognition: Grateful Meds, One Brown Mouse, Botanic Labs, C3I, THC in Rollinsville, etc.

In your opinion, what are the 5 best dispensaries in the region? I would love to know because I wanna go where the fire's at!

I made a visit to Delta-9 today and I'm pretty happy that I did! Stopping in a bit early, there was only one other person there. I'll just give you brief rundown.

Atmosphere- Nice. Shares a building with a tattoo parlor, but really just shares an entrance vestibule. When you enter Delta-9 there is a front waiting room and a window. They check your cards here and buzz you back once you're verified. Once inside there's a very nice waiting room. I didn't have to wait long so I didn't get a great look, but there was a big screen TV and some couches and some books. Nice waiting room... one of the better ones I've been in as far as comfort goes.

Next, into the bud room. Called back one at a time I got to discuss the buds at length with the budtender/owner. He was a really nice guy and seems to know quite a bit. More knowledgable than some of the budtenders at other Denver-area dispensaries. He didn't rush me or seem bothered that I took up a bunch of time...

Bud Quality - Fantastic. I thought there was some pretty good stuff in here. He probably had 7-8 or strains, some different phenotypes of the same strain. Blueberry, Critical Mass, Double Sour Diesel, Bruce Banner (OG Kush x Strawberry Diesel, developed by grower there). I sampled the Critical Mass, Double sour diesel, and Bruce Banner. They were all very good. I REALLY like the Bruce Banner... it's got a very complex taste that I can't really describe. Also, the Double Sour Diesel was really good. Really trichomed up! Really tasty. Did the trick for me.

Price - OK. However, if you assign them caregiver I think it's ridiculously good prices. I thought he said $70/qtr? I could be wrong, but seemed like there were great deals for assigning caregiver status. Otherwise, it was $22/g, and then $55/eighth all the way up... Since I'm a heavy smoker these prices are a little higher than I prefer, but I'll definitely be back here. The owner knows quality and seems to only offer quality buds. All buds are the same price, top-quality.

Anyone check out Greenleaf Farmacy in Boulder ?

I'll respond to my own post . This is a new dispensary in Boulder, about 1 1/2 week opened. Between getting someone on the phone first try , and getting some initial questions answers I had a good feeling about them . The phone thing is big for me , even though i realize people get jammed and need to respond later to voice mails it adds to professionalism when they can find the time to answer the phones as best as possible. Last but not least , I'm just applying first time and they were / are (you'd need to check) giving a free medical evaluation. No cost outside of the state fee. The paperwork was done efficiently and professionally. Receipts, copies, forms all.

In a great location. Large store in the back and a nice sizeoffice up front. Very clean and nice looking place. There was also a $100 store credit along with signing up. Obviously they are now my caregiver. I met the employees, one of the cultivators who assisted me in my med choices and the owner. All very friendly , warm and professional.

I don't know how many strains they have , I didn't count. However from the price sheet I want to say it looked like today was 25 + . Low grade to top shelf (literally) and price 12/gram - 23/gram. They told me they do discounts on 1/8ths as well. I thought that was cool from reading some of the other reviews. I don't know what the discount is , it's slight on the 18th.

I chose 3 of the top shelfers , Cherry Lime, Bubble Berry and Sour Kush and added some edibles. A nice printed receipt with the strain name to assist me in future purchases was a good touch.

Well the only thing to do now is ... however I did try 1 peanut butter cup (quite tasty) $5 about an hour ago and I'm impressed.

Well I don't typically write reviews about much , but I wanted to share , Hope this helps.

Top 5 are

High Country Healing - Silverthorne
C3 Initiatives - Denver
One Brown Mouse - Nederaland
Healing House - Denver

no one has earned the right to be #5, and no one can even compare to the medecine by caregiver grows. His sour star is off the chain.
