This week the team is reaching for these.
Every Monday, our budtender teams at Union Turnpike and Forest Avenue pick six products they're personally reaching for. No manufacturer sponsorships, no upsell targets — just the six things that would leave the shelf first if we all had to buy dinner.
GMO — Live Rosin Cold Cure
Terpene-loud, garlic-forward, and the kind of end-of-day flower our team keeps quietly restocked in the sample jar. If you like heavy-hitting indica with more character than a straight sleep-strain, start here.
Shop flowerPapaya Slims — Infused 5-Pack
The slim format burns clean the whole way and the infusion is honest — you feel it inside two puffs. Great for anyone who used to buy street pre-rolls and wants the legal version that's actually stronger.
Shop pre-rollBlue Dream — Live Resin All-in-One
Our Staten Island crew reaches for this one during Saturday morning inventory. Uplifting, clear-headed, and the hardware is drama-free — no clogging, no burnt-cotton finish.
Shop vapePeach Rings — Fast-Acting 10-Pack
Onset in 15–20 minutes instead of 90. Perfect for people who tried edibles once, waited two hours, ate three more, and had a bad time. Start with half.
Shop edibleCann Blood Orange Cardamom
The low-dose can our team recommends to first-timers, tolerance-reset regulars, and anyone bringing cannabis to a dinner where drinking would be too heavy. Fast onset, gentle exit.
Shop beverageSilly Nice — Diamond Powder
Enhance any joint or bowl. The diamonds hit hard but stay flavorful because the terp content is dialed. This is what we hand to concentrate skeptics before they ask.
Shop concentrateMost dispensary menus are alphabetical. Ours is too, on Dutchie. This page is what happens after 20 minutes at the counter with a budtender you trust — six shortlisted picks instead of 400 SKUs.
Team votes weekly. No product qualifies without at least one budtender who'd stake their next tip on it. Something new drops, someone tries it on their own time, they bring it up in our Monday standup, and if the room agrees, it's on this page.
No brand pays to be here. Dispensary law aside, we'd lose the point of the page. If a pick disappoints a customer, we hear about it and it comes off. That's the only editorial rule.
“I stopped scrolling menus. I just check what the team's picking that week and go with that.”
