In honor of everything LBGTQ, a number of brands have released limited edition rainbow-themed products, available at various dispensaries and delivery services. We took a look to find some of the hottest PRIDE products on the market this year.

Kiva Camino - Camino Gummies in “Tropical Punch”


Kiva Camino are a popular go-to for those looking to enjoy strain-specific artisanal cannabis gummies.


What we love about their take on PRIDE: Kiva Camino is a go-to for unique flavors with specified vibes like Sparkling Pear (CBD/THC) for a “social” effect and Pineapple Habanero (Sativa) for an “uplifting” one. For PRIDE, the brand has rolled out a Tropical Punch flavor — the mood this product elicits? “fierce."

PLUS Products - Gummies in “Rainbow Sorbet”


PLUS Products is a leader in the cannabis gummies and mints space with an always-creative flavor palette.


What we love about their take on PRIDE: PLUS is known for innovative flavors (like its Indica Blackberry & Lemon gummies) and flavors that often have a seasonal spin (Holiday Bliss in Cranberry & Shortbread was a sell-out this past holiday season). For June, PLUS has taken its customers' tastebuds to a new level of flavor innovation with limited edition product PRIDE Rainbow Sorbet in a Sativa blend. Beyond flavor and effect, this product actually goes toward social good too. The brand has stated that “for every tin sold, PLUS will donate $1 to the San Francisco LGBT Center.”

Mr. Moxey’s - Mints in “Proud Peppermint”


These self-proclaimed "Delectable & discreet” mints with CBD/THC have been flying off dispensary shelves.


What we love about their take on PRIDE: Mr. Moxey’s mints rank high for flavor, ease of dosage and are sold in a convenient, compact tin. The company has upped its game with its “Proud Peppermint” flavor sold in a unique rainbow packaging. Like PLUS, in addition to quality, the company is doing good with the product too. $1 of each tin sold goes to Washington, Oregon and San Francisco based LGBTQ equality and advocacy groups - that’s something to be proud of.

Weed Makes Me Introspective: When Cannabis Causes Us to Reconsider Our Life Choices

Pot Prompts Self-Reflection

Being stoned comes with a wealth of side effects – some of which are just part of the fun, while others have been known to get smeared all over a person’s psyche, causing them to gawk out the window every thirty seconds to see if the cops are coming up the stairs.

Perhaps the least discussed byproduct of the bud, however, is its uncanny ability to send the user into a maddening state of introspection. Cannabis can make individuals more attuned to their bodily sensations, emotions, and inner thoughts, which can contribute to this introspective state. Weed can often inspire the high-minded to start questioning their life choices, setting them on a path of self-doubt, self-loathing, and self-destruction.

How Overregulation Crushed California’s Gold Flora—And Why Other States Should Be Worried

Overregulation Kills Gold Flora

When California-based Gold Flora entered the legal cannabis scene, the company was poised to dominate. Backed by serious money and a sprawling, vertically integrated operation—from a 100,000-square-foot cultivation campus in the desert to marquee dispensaries in West Hollywood and San Jose—Gold Flora wasn't just riding the green wave. It was supposed to be the wave.

But by the end of March 2025, the company had filed for receivership, its assets now headed to auction. And while headlines cite "merger woes" and "market conditions," the real culprit behind Gold Flora’s collapse is far more systemic: a regulatory stranglehold that has quietly choked the life out of California’s once-promising cannabis economy.

The Truth About THC Candle: Cannabis Candles & How to Make Your Own

There are several different ways to consume cannabis, and some of them don’t even involve actual consumption. Cannabis candles are beginning to take over the candle game, allowing cannabis enthusiasts to enjoy the smells they’re used to having to cover up and hide: the danky goodness of weed.

As cannabis becomes less stigmatized in modern culture, people are beginning to come out and admit to their cannabis use. While smoking weed used to be something people felt they had to keep on the down low, the culture is becoming increasingly mainstream and the scent is now sought after rather than condemned. Many cannabis candles feature complex scent profiles, including notes of amber, which contribute to a rich and layered aromatic experience.
