Hashtag Buyers’ Choice 2020: Flower

by the Marketing and Purchasing Teams of Hashtag Cannabis

Gorilla Cookies flower by Falcanna.

As 2020 comes to an end and we celebrate the beginning of a new year, the team at Hashtag decided to take a look back at some of our favorite products of 2020! 

This year, instead of asking our budtenders about their favorite products, we reached out to our lovely purchasing team and asked them to share their favorite products of 2020, to bring you the inaugural Hashtag Buyers’ Choice 2020. 

We thought it would be neat to highlight some of the magic that happens on the backend here at Hashtag, because without our most excellent cannabis purchasers, we wouldn’t have any cannabis to sell to you! Every weekly, biweekly, or monthly purchase order is built out of data analysis, trend watching, and personal relationships with our partners built over the last five years.

Our awesome team of three -- Em, Mel and Chris -- compiled their list of this year’s MUST HAVE items for an epic high New Year’s Eve from home.

In fact, let’s introduce you to our purchasing team with some pre-COVID tour photos!

Let’s check out the full list of Hashtag Buyers’ Choice 2020 for Flower below!

High Rollers

Falcanna’s Gorilla Cookies

Gorilla Cookies is a hybrid that is great for both mind and body relaxation. A cross of Gorilla Glue #4 and Thin Mint GSC, it has a strong aroma that helps provide an initial cerebral euphoria followed by a deep, relaxing body buzz. Falcanna is proud to be 100% Clean Green Certified and stands out as a superb grower in Washington State,

Sky High Gardens’ Pineapple Chunk

Sky High Gardens is a proud local Seattle based farm, producing exceptional craft cannabis. “At Sky High Gardens, we live craft cannabis. Located just south of the stadiums in Seattle and aided by cool Pudget Sound marine air, our ocean grown buds are an inspiration for our hard work and represent our relentless pursuit of top quality”.

Pineapple Chunk is both a budtender and buyers’ choice two years in a row! This dense and piercingly fragrant, heavyweight champion Indica connects with a 1-2-3 combo of cheese, skunk and pineapple right in the kisser. Followed by a buckling haymaker to the dome and the inevitable ten count. You’ll get a GREAT sleep with this one, tokers beware, this is not a light smoke. 

SKöRD’s Breathmints

BreathMints is a hybrid cross of MendoBreath x SinMint Cookies from the breeder SinCity Seeds. Feel a lovely balance of both mind and body, the perfect strain for any time of the day.

“We've been running this strain for over a year now, and with how the results turn out with each harvest, it's hard to think of a reason to stop! This batch produced super dense, purple buds, marked by a strong coating of resin and those notorious fire-orange pistols”.

Pot Of Gold’s Crumpets

After a year and a half of love and care, Pot of Gold recently dropped Crumpets, a very exclusive genetic from the Cookies Family. This tasty strain smokes smooth and sweet with rich creamy undertones. We recommend it for a nice hike followed by a relaxing bath. Or whatever suits your fancy!

Lazy Bee Gardens’ PowderHound

Winner of the 2019 Seattle Cannabis Cup for ‘Best Sun-Grown Flower’, this high-energy sativa strain is powered by terpinolene and caryophyllene, giving it flavors of citrus, pepper, and coconut. Great for sports, social activities, and creativity. Some of us at Hashtag absolutely love to use this powerhouse of a strain to get motivated for a workout.. Or maybe just get those annoying cleaning tasks done around the house.

Budget Friendly

Green Barn Farms’ Cali Cheesecake

Cali Cheesecake is a well balanced, mind & body experience that is perfect for that anytime of day toke. Cheesy, earthy and skunky nodes come through strong as soon as you open the bag of this beautiful sun-grown flower, the definition of DANK cannabis.

Green Barn Farms, headquartered in Addy, Washington and founded in 2014, is a collective of outdoor and greenhouse-grown cannabis farmers dedicated to creating the most natural cannabis available. Green Barn not only leads the way in quality outdoor cannabis but is blazing the trail in sustainability. Each of their employees and growers works tirelessly to set the highest sustainability standards to minimize their business' environmental impact on the regions and communities that each of us depend on.

High Five Farms’ Purple Punch

“High Five Farms specializes in all natural cannabis products for the discerning connoisseur”, with two classics, Larry OG and Grand Daddy Purple, come together to create this grape flavored strain that starts in the head and flows down to your toes. Purple Punch is a perennial favorite, offering delicious uplift, and hazy, dreamy mental effects.

High CBD Flower

Gilda CBD by Raven Grass

Gilda is a sativa-dominant, high-CBD strain, typically with a 1:1 CBD:THC ratio. Enjoy a mellow euphoria and relieving physical sensations.
