Taste Cannabis: Advocating for a Refined Cannabis Experience
Walking into Taste Cannabis in Kamloops BC is like walking into a clean, high-end boutique. The store is large, open, and welcoming with a large selection of cannabis for sale under glass, and trendy clothing on display. Recently, industry laws were adjusted to allow them to remove the frosting off their windows, so natural light fills the room.
The skilled budtenders at Taste Cannabis see a wide range of customers come through their door, most commonly 40 years old and up. As educated consultants, they also serve many seniors who are regular customers, returning to seek relief from pain, insomnia or stress. They answer questions knowledgeably, and guide customers in their purchase with a focus on harm reduction while striving to create an environment free of stigma, where it is safe and convenient to purchase premium cannabis products.
Their prices are surprisingly competitive, given the luxurious setting, because of direct delivery from BC craft growers (licensed producers). The BC Liquor Distribution Branch is the sole wholesale distributor of non-medical cannabis in BC, under the brand BC Cannabis Wholesale. Local craft growers are listed on this wholesale site, allowing them to choose brands and products to suit their clientele.
One of the most common questions they are asked is “What is the difference between CBD, THC, and CBN?”
CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) are two of the most recognized and studied active compounds (cannabinoids) found in cannabis. Despite their similar chemical structures, they have distinct effects on the body. THC is best known for its psychoactive properties, which produce the characteristic "high" associated with cannabis use. It achieves this effect by binding with cannabinoid receptors in the brain, leading to sensations of euphoria or intoxication. CBD, on the other hand, is non-psychoactive and doesn't induce this high, making it an appealing option for those looking for relief without altered mental states. Instead, CBD has gained attention for its potential health benefits, including reducing anxiety and improving sleep quality. While they share some therapeutic traits, their different impacts on the mind and body underscore the importance of understanding each cannabinoid's unique characteristics. Cannabinol (CBN) is one of the many compounds, known as cannabinoids, found in the cannabis plant. Unlike its more famous counterpart, THC, CBN is not psychoactive and won't get you "high". However, it does exhibit a range of potential therapeutic effects. Some research suggests that it may help with sleep issues, acting as a powerful sedative. Other potential benefits of CBN include anti-inflammatory properties, pain relief, and even the promotion of bone growth. As with any cannabinoid, it is important to remember that research is still in the early stages and effects can vary significantly between individuals.
