Best Budtender
Our publication is no stranger to L’Eagle: The dispensary has won numerous awards in our yearly top-ten lists and Best of Denver editions for its talent in the grow room. But the shop also claims one of the finest budtenders in town: Courtney Clark. A pot encyclopedia packaged in a bubbly, pint-sized sweetheart of a woman, Clark can talk shop with master growers or make nervous first-timers feel comfortable about strains and pot products they’ve never tried before. “I know quite a bit about cannabis, but I still ask Courtney what I should take home with me,” says L’Eagle co-owner Amy Andrle. Clark’s knowledge and love for her shop’s products is hard to put a lid on as she describes Strawberry Cough or indica baklava bites, leaving you smarter — and smiling — on your way out.
