Celebrate craft cannabis with us at Canna Cabana!

Once a year, we like to celebrate the growers that bring us this top quality, meticulously grown weed. From special grow rooms to pheno-hunted genetics, creating craft weed takes a ton of time, dedication, and expertise—but we can’t argue with the results.

From October 1^st to 14^th, Explore Craft at your local store with special pop-ups, swag giveaways, features, and more!

As a sneak preview, let’s check out four of these craft growers making waves across Canada: Simply Bare, Coterie, Pistol & Paris, and Broken Coast.

What is craft cannabis?

Generally speaking, craft cannabis is any bud that fulfils certain criteria. Craft bud is hang-dried, hand-trimmed, hand-packaged, and grown in small batch facilities. This allows for hands on work from growers and careful attention to each plant. If you're looking for the best possible quality and the best possible weed, craft cannabis might be just what you're looking for.

These labour-intensive growing practices mean that craft cannabis is sold at a premium: but at Canna Cabana, our prices make craft more accessible to all!

What makes cannabis craft?

Using specific cultivation methods, craft growers get the best out of the plant we love. We often see craft terms on labels, but what exactly do they mean?

• Rare Genetics: Experience unique flavour profiles and aromas with new strains or twists on your favourite classics. Some special cultivars incorporate rare cannabinoids, while some are pheno-hunted for particular traits, like sweetness or gassiness. Many craft growers search far and wide for new genetics to bring to Canada, and some are the only ones to offer them in the country!
• Hang Dried & Cured: Gently slow dried and carefully cured to preserve terpenes for a more powerful aroma and flavour. The curing process is integral to good weed: done well, the result is super terpy, super potent flower.
• Hand Packed: Handled by growing experts with care to prevent the loss of precious, potent trichomes. More trichomes, more flavour!
• Small Batch: Grown with meticulous one-on-one attention, resulting in aromatic and terpene-rich bud. Some growers use specialized grow rooms tailored to each cultivar. Smaller batches ensure that every individual plant gets the care they need.
• Hand Trimmed: Closely inspected for seeds, stems, and any imperfections, giving you a superior cut with maximum trichomes. Hand trimming ensures a quality control that can’t be done with automation.

The brands of craft cannabis

Coterie

It’s been a great year for Coterie. Making their way up our bestseller lists, and coming out with new vapes and potent strains, they’re leaving their mark across Canada. Created with sustainability in mind, Coterie’s environmentally conscious packaging is 100% home compostable. It’s not just good for the earth, it’s good for your weed too, keeping it at optimal moisture and oxygen levels.

Check out their pheno-hunted strains like Pink Rose #4 (Lemonchello x Lemon Pound Cake), their in-house genetics like Oreoz Breath (OG Kush Breath x Mendo Montage), or their Leafly “Strain of the Year” winner, Permanent Marker!

Coterie also offers a unique line of vapes that combine live resin and distillate, creating a cart that delivers on both potency and true-to-strain, full spectrum terpene profiles. Leading their vapes is the bestselling Cereal Milk, a sativa-dominant cart with an inhale of vanilla and berries.

Broken Coast

Established in 2013, Broken Coast grows their cannabis on the shores of BC’s Salish Sea. They’ve kept their sterling reputation for years with their top-quality bud, vapes, and concentrates. Broken Coast takes small batch to a new level: in their open-air facility, they’ve custom built small laboratory-grade growing rooms. Each room houses a single strain, so each cultivar gets the optimal conditions it needs to flourish!

Broken Coast’s Amnesia Haze is a frequent star on our top-seller lists. A combination of Southeast Asian, Afghani, and Hawaiian Landrace strains, it’s a unique cultivar that doesn’t have many equals on the market, and is a true sativa with bright lemon and spice notes. Their new indica Cherry Cheesecake (Kimbo Kush x Cherry Pie) brings a sweeter side, with an aroma true to its name.

Simply Bare

We couldn’t talk about craft without talking about Simply Bare. For years now, they’ve been delivering consistently terpy, hard-hitting bud. Organic certified and hand-crafted in BC, Simply Bare’s cannabis is sustainably grown in nutrient rich soil, bringing you back to mother nature. Along with Broken Coast, you’ll frequently find Simply Bare on our top-selling lists, standing side by side with high volume, value-oriented growers. It’s an achievement we want to give them a shout out for!

Flying off our shelves from Simply Bare are their strains Fruit Loopz (Blue Dream x White Widow), Lime Mi’jito (Limegerian x Orange Blossom Trail) and their Selects, a rotating collection of Simply Bare exclusive cultivars.

Pistol & Paris

With over 20 years of experience in the cannabis space, Pistol and Paris have gone from legacy to legal. These experts on BC Bud are about top shelf gassy, gooey cannabis from specialized small gardens over commercial size grows. With their growing partners like family-owned Verte West and TorrCann, they’re focused on high-quality flower using traditional methods: hang dry, hand trim, and grown in soil with no pesticides. Their plants are all tended and inspected by hand, giving them an expert leg-up on automated grows.

Pistol & Paris bring a wide range of strains, from the legendary genetics of Orange Tingz (Slurricane x TMAC) and Notorious (90s OG phenotype) to unique finds like Gas and Roses and Pink Panties (Burmese Kush x Florida Kush).
