NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 16, 2023--
The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. (NEO: CBST) (OTCQX: CBSTF) (FSE: 3LP) (“The Cannabist Company” or the “Company”), one of the largest and most experienced cultivators, manufacturers and retailers of cannabis products in the U.S., announced today it is bringing two of its award winning flower brands, Seed & Strain and Classix, to the Florida market in the coming weeks.
Florida is the 15th U.S. market to launch Classix, a brand that features approachable products that provide a reliable, nostalgic high. Three flower strains including Lemon Dosidos, Motor Breath x Wedding Crashers, and Sweet Tooth will be available in 3.5g at all 14 Cannabist locations beginning November 20.
The Cannabist Company’s top-selling brand, Seed & Strain, will make its Florida debut the following week on November 28 with 3.5g flower in four strains including Secret Formula, Twisted Pie, 10gs, and Melanaid Skittlez. This is also Seed & Strain’s 15th U.S. market and will be available at all 14 Florida dispensaries. The superior quality flower is meticulously harvested aiming to offer a consistent, quality experience every time.
“This is a pivotal time for Florida and its cannabis market, and we’re thrilled to be able to bring our brands to the state to offer patients a more robust product platform that delivers on consistency, accessibility, and quality,” said Jesse Channon, Chief Commercial Officer, The Cannabist Company. “It has always been our commitment to provide our customers with a broad range of product options that meet them wherever they are on their cannabis journey. We are extremely dedicated to the Sunshine State, and with the potential for adult-use legalization on the horizon, this seemed like the absolute best time to introduce our brands and their unique qualities to Floridians.”
The Company’s Press 2.0 line of effects-based pressed tablets launched in April of 2023, marking the first brand to launch in the state. Vape carts and additional flower strains for both Classix and Seed & Strain will be available at all 14 locations in December. In early 2024, the Company’s edibles line, Hedy, will also be available.
