“High Times is hyped to bring Cannabis Cup back to Massachusetts to give thousands of cannabis consumers the chance to taste, review, and score the best products in the state,” said Mark Kazinec, the High Times Director of Events and Competitions. “We’re excited to grow from 17 participating dispensaries in 2021 to 30 dispensaries this year, and that means, for the first time, kits will be available in many more locations, including new additions in Dracut, Franklin, Hopedale and Amherst, alongside returning cities like Boston, Haverhill, Worcester, and Fall River. Massachusetts is home to unique cannabis brands with discerning taste in products and some of the coolest packaging in the nation. It’s a fun event for judges, but also a sampling dream for competitors because it gives local brands the opportunity to reach thousands of new customers, receive feedback on their products and potentially walk away with a coveted Cannabis Cup award. We expect huge lines at retailers across the state when kits hit shelves on Saturday, September 24.”
