Native Roots Dispensary Denver
8/22/2015
First-timers (dad and I) in Denver, first-timers to a recreational dispensary and I had a great experience! I'd still like to visit a shop with their nugs in clear jars on shelves, but I know that isn't for everyone, and Native Roots is a very well-run, upscale marijuana experience. They offer pretty much anything you'd want out of a shop. Buds, wax, shatter, pipes, vape pens, edibles, you name it. Jesus was our budtender and he was fantastic, friendly, and very knowledgable about the products, as well as suggestive and helpful. My dad had experiences in college with weed and it turned him off from it later in life because he didn't realize it was because he was smoking sativas that he was getting paranoid. Jesus was very understanding of this and since my dad is fond of smoking only cigars, he bought some edibles instead, still a prime choice. I found myself saying under my breath while in-store, "this is how it should be", and it really is. Not the lowest prices in Denver, street pricing actually, but retail psychology is a real thing and we both truly felt like we had a professional, valued experience. Wait time was less than five minutes! Myself being the seasoned user, opted for an eighth of Orange Herijuana (Sativa dominant hybrid, but good body high), a gram pre-rolled of Jilly Bean for a hike (also Hybrid), and a 100mg dropper, blend mix. The dropper (it's a tincture type thing) is by far my favorite way to date of getting that mellow, chill without the just-smoked feeling or being blazed. Like vaping without the vape. Also got a VERY dope Native Roots Grassroots hat!!! Overall a 10/10 experience, would come back and would recommend to a friend in need, indeed.
