COOKIES, the leading international lifestyle and cannabis brand from Berner, the prolific Bay Area rapper and entrepreneur has launched a new cannabis brand, "COLLINS AVE," in partnership with rap legend, Rick Ross.

Touted as a natural intersection of culture, music and cannabis, the COLLINS AVE brand includes 3 specially curated strains featuring flavor profiles inspired by Ross' own identity.  

According to the press release, Berner and Ross have taken a hands-on approach to this new brand, with strains representative of Ross' connection to Miami such as "Collins Ave," "Pink Rozay" and "Lemon Pepper." 

The Cookies assortment includes Indica ("Collins Ave") and Hybrid ("Pink Rozay") varieties, while Lemonnade will exclusively feature "Lemon Pepper" on its award-winning Sativa menu.

According to Berner, the duo “have a very similar work ethic…” and both have spread their wings outside of the music business.

Ross shared that he too, “wants to be a force within the cannabis industry and bring a superior quality product to the masses.” Particularly to his people in the South. 

COLLINS AVE will be available at Cookies dispensaries in California, as well as through exclusive partners in Illinois (Illinois Supply and Provisions); Michigan (Gage Cannabis), Oregon (Pistil Point; and Slang Worldwide), and Washington (Hash Agency).

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.

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.

Iranian Weed: Epic Mag Strain

The sprawling mountains of Iran bloom with native flora every year: elms and ironwood trees, tulips and daffodils, even something called Dwarf Eelgrass. But scattered throughout the forests and flowerbeds, like in neighboring Afghanistan and Pakistan, another flower has been thriving for thousands of years: cannabis.

Through Iranian genetics sourcing, cannabis in Iran is collected from specific regions, emphasizing the unique and wild plant varieties. Mag Landrace is just one of the Persian nation’s homegrown strains, beloved for its intense indica effects, deep green and purple hues, and abundance of trichomes, resins and oils that make it ideal for smoking and hash-making. It’s finally in the states and available for patients and casual users alike to discover and delight in, and here’s why.
