Massachusetts cannabis competitions and cannabis awards events are always a lot of fun to be a part of, whether you’re in the industry or a curious consumer. Massachusetts was the first state in New England to fully embrace cannabis. Today, without question, we know how to pay homage to our favorite plant in the Bay State. From NECANN to other cannabis events, there are so many great ways to learn about the best cannabis in MA.
NECANN Cup Massachusetts Cannabis Competitions
The only multi-state cannabis competition in New England, the NECANN (New England Cannabis Convention) Cup is one of the most anticipated cannabis awards events in the state. This annual event brings together some of the best strains and products from top cultivators and processors for a blind evaluation of each one. Each flower or product submitted goes through a thorough analysis, including on-site testing for purity and potency. Awards can be granted in different categories, such as Best Indica, Hybrid, and Sativa.
At the NECANN this year, we were lucky enough to contribute one of our star craft strains: Elvis. Elvis is a Sativa-dominant strain with high potency, an explosion of skunky sweet flavor, and a sparkling, trichome-coated exterior. This rock-star strain managed to nab second place for the Best Sativa Strain at NECANN during the blind judging, and we couldn’t be more proud of this cultivar because of it.
