Visitors to the Cannabist dispensary in Tempe can see the company's marijuana plants growing through giant windows in the lobby and retail area. Cannabist pays special attention to cultivation for its two flower brands, Triple Seven and Seed & Strain (a third variety, called Classix, is expected by fall 2021). Rigorous testing ensures consistent dosages, and the percentage amounts of THC and CBD are listed right on every package. The Triple Seven and Seed & Strain flower both have fine flavor, from tasty sativa strains like Orangeade and lemony Ghost Train Haze to earthy, grassy hybrids like Gorilla Cookies and Lucid Blue. Costs run about $45 to $50 per gram, which is pretty typical for top-tier weed.
