Gratitude to all the craft cultivators who make California the most vibrant cannabis scene on the planet, and congratulations to all the winners who earned bragging rights this year. Without further ado, here are some of the most notable winners of the event—and where to buy them.
Farmer and the Felon
They dominated the Sungrown category, winning
1st place and Best in Show with Lemon Sponge Cake. Their Georgia Pie placed 3rd, Double OG Chem took 4th, 92 OG came in 8th, and their Sticky Buns (in collaboration with Cookies Fam Genetics) snagged 11th. No other brand swept so many awards, making them the most decorated of the entire Cup.
In the
Mixed Light category—greenhouse and light-dep flowers—Lit House ruled, earning 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 7th place with Modified Grapes, Jealousy, Lemon Lava, and Paragon, respectively.
Fig Farms crushed the
Indoor category: 1st place with Animal Face, 3rd with Blue Face, 5th with Holy Moly (which also won the Indoor Breeders Cup), and 11th with Sixth Sense.
In
Therapeutic Topicals and
Tinctures,
Care by Design took home 1st place in both categories with their CBD Joint and Muscle Cream and 1:1 Max Refresh Drops.
For
Edibles, the best beverage award went to
Hi-Fi Sessions x Lagunitas x Absolute Extracts for their Hi-Fi Hoppy Chill collab. Space Gem took 2nd in the Gummies category with their vegan Sleepy Fig gummy made with ice water hash.
In the
Alternative Cannabinoids category,
Papa & Barkley’s Sleep Releaf earned 1st place in Alternative Cannabinoid Edibles, while
Glass House nugs took 2nd with Jellyfish CBD and 3rd with Tangelo Flo (a 1:1 THC:CBD release).
Anyone who appreciates good cannabis owes a debt of gratitude to the California cultivators who — for decades — risked their very freedom to bring us the absolute best. They are all winners in our book.
