[Canniseur: I love the idea of the Cannabis Cup. Especially in Michigan! But I have to wonder at the method the awards are awarded. How do you taste cannabis or concentrates? Or edibles? It’s not like you can try cannabis like wine. I would posit that while you can judge the aroma of many products, you can’t judge the effect of many at one time. I don’t want to rain on the parade of awards, but I’d sure like to know how the product is evaluated.]
This past weekend at the Cannabis Cup was a blast! As always, we were excited to meet both veterans of the cannabis space and those who are fresh-faced and new. Everyone who entered the competition brought their best products and their A-Game. Without further ado, here are the winners of the 2019 Michigan Cannabis Cup:

I just wanted to say I’m not new to the Cannabis world but as far as going into a dispensary today was my first time. I got a very nice hard card coupon in the mail and found out they were located 3 minutes down the road. I’m mainly into Vape carts so after contacting the store while I was at work looking through an online delivery service I decided to pay the store a visit this evening located in Burton Michigan. I totally felt like a noob as I’m used to getting things like this illegally years ago versus the 7-Eleven. Very professional operation, clean and organized modern/futuristic store and the staff was unbelievable. Friendliness and complete professionalism. I have to say I’m very impressed with the first cart out of two I have tried. Thanks guys keep up the good work
