The legalization of marijuana in Colorado has brought nationwide attention to The Centennial State. Since the legalization of recreational weed use, Colorado dispensaries have shown off their creativity—from producing THC infused edibles such as brownies, cookies, candies and even cheesecakes, to cultivating hundreds of strands of pot.
In Summit County, Colo., Cultivating Spirits has taken this creativity to a whole different level. This is not your typical edible dispensary; It offers a lot more than a simple pot brownie. Cultivating Spirits offers grow tours, dispensary tours, glass blowing tours, gourmet dinners, wine tasting and cannabis pairings.
There are even THC cooking demonstrations where you can learn how to professionally cook with cannabis. The dispensary also offers itself as a venue for private events such as weddings, corporate and custom events and a private limousine service.
That being said, let’s dive into this palace of weed and see what it’s all about. Cultivating Spirits offers three different unique tours: The Day Excursion, Sensational Fusion Experience and the THC Fusion Experience.
Let me start off by explaining what The Day Excursion is about. Once you arrive at Cultivating Spirits, a private limousine service will take you to one of Colorado’s most spectacular marijuana growth facilities. There you will learn about THC, the differences between Indica and Sativa and how to effectively take in cannabis.
According to the Cultivating Spirits website, the second part of the tour “will focus on edibles, oils, and accessories; while explaining how edibles are made, as well as edible intake, product descriptions, types of hash, extraction methods, and consumption methods.” After that your limousine service will take you for a tour around Summit County to see Lake Dillon, and at $499, this tour also offers glass blowing demonstrations and a hike.
The second and third tours are a little more affordable at $199 and offer just as much fun as the Day Excursion. The Sensational Fusion Experience starts off at the Cultivating Spirits Eatery. There, you will view an hour-long cooking presentation expedited by top chefs who will show you how to apply fine dining cooking techniques.
They also set your food with fine wine to make cooking styles formed by some of the most well known chefs in the area. Then you will be taken by limousine to the Frisco Wine Merchant for wine tastings and cannabis pairings, followed by a private dinner at Cultivating Spirits.
Last but not least is the THC Fusion Experience: cooking with cannabis. This class will teach you how to properly instill your meals with THC at home, and you will learn how to cook with oils, butters and even keef.
The medicative benefits you will learn may change your look on how to treat yourself. Just as the other tours, a limousine service will take you for a trip around Summit County and back to Cultivating Spirits for a private dinner.
Cultivating Spirits is an experience of a lifetime. Take advantage of what the beautiful state of Colorado has to offer. I know I will.
