Lots of celebrities have dipped their toes into the cannabis industry. Typically, they will do a licensing deal that allows cannabis brands to make a product and use that celebrity’s name, image and likeness for marketing. For this reason, you’ll often see limited-edition drops where a product is released once – you’ll never see it again.
To spare you the heartbreak of a limited edition, consider some popular cannabis brands with products you can try over and over again.
