SACRAMENTO, Calif., July 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -PRESS RELEASE- LEMONNADE, a sativa-focused cannabis dispensary brand, is set to launch in Sacramento on July 19.
LEMONNADE is the sister company of Cookies, the cannabis and lifestyle brand founded by San Francisco-based rapper Berner. The hip-hop artist partnered with breeder Brett Wilson to create a dispensary experience emphasizing sativa strains.
"We didn't see anyone really focusing on the sativa consumers, and most of the flavor profiles for the existing sativas on the market were extremely similar and old," Berner said. "We decided to build a brand followed by a retail experience that focused on flavorful and new sativa varieties. I'm excited to launch LEMONNADE retails, especially because we spent the last four years in R&D mode building this menu. We will carry hybrids and indicas too, but you can expect a wide variety of sativas and a very unique retail experience when you come to LEMONNADE."
The dispensary will start with 15 original LEMONNADE sativa strains, a wide array of infused products and the first drop of LEMONNADE apparel. The store will try to bring a warm and welcoming environment to Sacramento with an open layout and socially distanced shopping.
"Sacramento has always had love for Berner. A Cookies and a LEMONNADE store in the City of Trees is a dream come true," said Hayk Serobyan of 3HHG Group, the local retail partner for LEMONNADE.
Like its sister brand, Cookies—which has recently partnered with legendary rapper Rick Ross and former NBA star Gary Payton —LEMONNADE is collaborating on new branded strains and other products with a number of recording artists, designers and cannabis influencers.
The nationwide LEMONNADE roll out continues this summer with two locations planned to open in Portland, Ore., and more across California.
