When some connoisseurs think of “high-end weed,” they’re still thinking of top-shelf flower and six-star hash. That definition has started to bend. For a different kind of consumer, high-end shows up in the details, from how it looks on your shelf, where it sits in your space, and how easily it blends in with everything else you own.
Design has quietly taken over. Cannabis is being reworked into objects that don’t immediately read as weed. These are things you leave out, and don’t have to tuck away. It feels closer to lifestyle than subculture now.
