Mile High Dispensary was a random stop. I had driven down to Littleton only to find I had the wrong address for another club. Frustrated at my stoner-moment, I made my way back north up Broadway through Englewood and turned in…
One is the loneliest number, and now I’m not alone. Yesterday our sister paper, Seattle Weekly, ran the first of what will be a regular review by their very own dispensary critic, Steve Elliott. By my count, this means there are now a total of two people with “newspaper pot…
This dispensary has closed. Rocky Mountain High fits in well with the expensive clothing boutiques in high-end Cherry Creek North. Not because it’s got sky-high herb prices, but because the place literally is an expensive, vintage clothing boutique in exclusive Cherry Creek North…
A sub-arctic wind followed me into the Denver City and County Building Tuesday, whipping past the two clearly frigid security guards working the metal detector into the already the drafty foyer. I jokingly asked one guard where her gloves were as she shivered with her hand tucked into the arms…
Got word last night and sadly confirmed that Steve Chase, 54, owner of La Conte’s Clone Bar and Dispensary, died of a heart attack January 27. An employee I spoke with said the shop was mourning his loss, but added they plan to stay open…
This morning, Highlands Ranch’s Chris Bartkowicz was sentenced to five years in prison, to be followed by eight years on supervised probation, for federal marijuana cultivation charges. Bartkowicz will also undergo mandatory drug and mental health programs…
The Denver Chapter of Moms for Marijuana plans to rally in support of Chris Bartkowicz, the Highlands Ranch medical marijuana grower facing federal cultivation charges. Tomorrow, Bartkowicz will find out if a judge will accept a plea-deal for a five year sentence…
This dispensary has closed. The storefront and decor at Local Product of Colorado have been set up with the utmost care. But their actual local product and its pricing may need some attention…
The outside of The Herbal Cure still looks probably much the way it has since it was built in 1927, minus the giant red railroad trolley in the front, which makes it look like a movie set for a spaghetti western…
This week, Mile Highs and Lows reviewed a hand-blown glass pipe from Heady Glass in Englewood. Aside from puffing on the pipe, I also spent some time hanging out with resident glass artists Ben “Spice” Crowley as he put the finishing touches on a custom hash oil bubbler, talking about…
If Denver really is the wild west of medical marijuana, then La Conte’s Clone Bar and dispensary makes a pretty good town saloon…
Now and then, local companies show us medical marijuana-related products. Enough, actually, that we decided to showcase our Colorado Stoner MacGyvers in quasi-regular product reviews. The latest is below…
This dispensary has closed. I have yet to find a decent shop on Federal, and Earth’s Medicine is no exception. I felt rushed the short eight minutes I was in the store — and during my brief follow-up phone call, it was clear the owner had better things to do…
When Scott Durrah and Wanda James sold their dispensary, Apothecary of Colorado, in July, they talked about opening a medical marijuana edibles company. Six months later, Simply Pure is in business…
Stuck somewhere between being a grow supply store and a medical marijuana dispensary, the Ballpark Holistic Dispensary is having a slight identity crisis…
Colorado Alternative Medicine is one of the few shops I’ve heard good things about from patients as well as other dispensary owners. I’ve been hearing stories about its solid collection of connoisseur genetics and homegrown-quality herb for over a year now, and decided it was finally time to check it…
Last week I talked about how much I hated holiday shopping. After going to KushCon II over the weekend, I’ve changed my mind. Below is my top ten pot-toy wish list for Santa this year. All photos by Aaron Thackeray…
This dispensary has closed. Holiday shopping sucks. I would rather drink the water from a dirty plastic bong than walk around the mall this time of year — which explains why I always end up waiting until the very last minute to get anything done…
KushCon II will turn the Colorado Convention Center into the largest head shop in the country this weekend, with more than 340,000 square feet of bongs, grow-light setups and girls in bikinis hawking dispensary fliers. The only thing missing will be actual kush. This is the second Kush Convention in…
While all dispensaries and caregivers should be keeping an eye out for mold, mildew and pests on their cannabis, the sad truth is that there is dirty medicine out there no matter if it’s coming from a huge warehouse or a tiny basement grow. In September, KindReviews tipped us off…
This dispensary has closed. Mixed in with the boutique specialty shops, craft beer houses and other restaurants in the area, Grasshopper Alternative Medicine blends in well with its East 17th Avenue neighbors. Aside from the ubiquitous green medical marijuana crosses, the clinic could pass for a coffee shop thanks to…
Advocates like Medical Marijuana Assistance Program of the Rockies’ Vincent Palazzotto believe new health department rules could be devastating for patients and caregivers. But they’ll have to wait to find out what they are until next year…
