We’re won’t pretend we don’t love a good excuse to talk about our favorite products. So! St. Patrick’s Day is as good a reason as any, and this year, the rainbow at Key Cannabis leads somewhere worth going (towards weed).
We’ve got a little something for everyone this week. New to the whole thing? Welcome, pull up a chair. Been around the block a few times? You probably already know some of these names. Either way, here’s what’s sitting pretty at the end of our rainbow right now.
Elevate Gumm-Es — 1000mg & 2000mg
First things first: these aren’t your dad’s gas station gummies. Elevate has built a reputation in the Missouri cannabis market for making edibles that are consistent, flavorful and potent.
A word to the new folks: edibles take time. Give them 45 minutes to 2 hours before you decide they’re not working. They’re working!
Elevate Rainbow Belts — 1g 510 Vape Carts
The name alone is enough to put these on the list this week, honestly. But beyond the St. Pat’s serendipity, Elevate’s 510 vape carts are a solid choice for anyone who wants something portable, discreet, and easy to manage dose-wise.
510-thread carts are the most universal vape format out there — they fit the vast majority of standard batteries, so if you’ve already got a pen sitting in a drawer somewhere, there’s a good chance this will work with it. If not, just ask us. We’ll sort you out.
Elevate Rainbow Road — 5g Pre-Roll Packs
A pre-roll pack named Rainbow Road for St. Patrick’s Day week!
Pre-roll packs are one of those things that sound simple but vary wildly in quality. The difference between a good one and a bad one is usually what’s inside — shake versus flower, how it’s rolled, whether it burns even. The Elevate Rainbow Road packs hold up. Five grams is also just a genuinely good value if you’re a regular smoker or you’ve got people coming over.
Elevate Rainbow Road — Flower 8ths
Same strain, different format. If you prefer to grind your own and roll your own , the Rainbow Road flower 8ths are the move. There’s something to be said for the ritual of it.
Our staff has been spending time with this one, and the consensus is pretty clear: the flavor comes through sweet and citrusy up front, then settles into a little floral spice on the back end. The high is balanced you’ll notice a mood lift pretty quickly, some solid relaxation, without the couch-lock. Good smoke for a Tuesday. Good smoke for a Saturday.
Flower is also the most direct way to understand what a strain actually does, you’re not waiting two hours and wondering. It’s a good place to start if you’re learning what you like.
Keef — Infused Drinks
Okay, here’s where things get interesting for a whole different crowd. Keef has been making cannabis-infused drinks for years and they’ve genuinely figured it out — the flavors are good, the dosing is approachable, and the experience is different from smoking or edibles in ways that some people prefer.
Infused beverages tend to hit a little faster than traditional edibles because of how they’re absorbed, and they’re a solid option if you’re sober-curious, cannabis-curious, or just don’t love the act of smoking. They’re also great for social settings where you want something in your hand that isn’t alcohol. Very St. Patrick’s Day of you.
One more thing worth mentioning: Keef Soda makes an excellent base for a THC-infused float. File that one away for when the weather turns.
Illicit — Flower 8ths (2 for $55)
Illicit is a Missouri-born cannabis brand, and they’ve earned their reputation the old-fashioned way — by growing good flower, consistently. If you haven’t tried them yet, this week is a fine time to start. If you have, you already know.
If you’re someone who likes to experiment, Illicit’s lineup rewards a little creativity. Our staff has been mixing and grinding two strains together to build custom terpene profiles — Animal Star Cookies and Trainwreck has emerged as a personal favorite combination. Two 8ths for $55 gives you plenty of room to find your own.
Two 8ths at this price is a genuinely good deal on quality Missouri-grown cannabis. Stock up!
