Best Edibles of 2019 in Washington State
by Shannon Dessi, Hashtag Fremont assistant manager & outreach lead
For those of us that are patient, edibles can be the way to go when trying to get high. Though they can take an hour or two to kick in, you get a great body high that lasts much longer than your high had you have smoked. Plus you get a snack in addition to getting high!
For the best of both worlds, smoke a joint while you wait for your edibles to kick in!
Here are some of our most decadent and drool-worthy edibles, all favorites of ours in 2019.

American Baked Co., Maple Bourbon Caramels
This super delectable caramel is a perfect sweet treat which will have you flying high. American Baked Co. only produces these caramels in a ten pack, so you can stock up for the long haul. Goes great with a cup of coffee!
You can feel the jittery uplift with the caramels. They are so tasty! Well paired with apple pie :) LOVE LOVE LOVE the gooey consistency, and ABC does it well. These don’t taste overly maple or bourbony; they are the perfect balance of flavor. —Hashtag Fremont budtender

Journeyman, Munchie Pack Cookies
Journeyman is here to keep it simple, keep it tasty, keep it away from kids and keep on truckin’!
Journeyman’s Munchie Pack is really great because you get a variety of flavors. I would recommend these for customers who love cookies and are on a budget. —Katie, Hashtag Fremont inventory lead

Craft Elixirs, Pioneer Squares
Pink Lemonade Fruit Chews
Pink Lemonade Pioneer Squares are beloved by all of our staff, but none say it better than Tyler:
A nice spike of tartness from the lemonade hits initially, and as a southerner myself, I can dig it. The sour candied exterior melts away in your mouth while the jelly in the center creates a sick music festival of taste buds buzzing in its place. The lemonade tartness remains in the background, dialed down, with hints on the pink-sugary sweetness that cuts some flavor layers into a single nibble. I consider this a nice glass of chill lemonade on a summer's day, in a bite sized form that could use some room temperature or colder temperatures to stay nice and square. I never tried them in the fridge, regrettably, as the quantity reduced faster than I had anticipated. They were delicious. The high was a slow elevation into a nice body buzz; a willingness to sit in comfy chairs was a hazard, as that could lock someone in for a few minutes upwards to a few hours, given the means. Coats the day in a nice sugary wrapping, similar to the sourness that the slice was dipped in, a nice sensation throughout the body, a hum, as if one was in syncopation with the rhythm they bopped to. Vegan, Kosher, Gluten Free, a product for all kinds of folks, like you, and like me. —Tyler, Hashtag Redmond assistant manager

Verdelux, Meltaway
Honey Caramelo Truffle 1:1 CBD
The Honey Caramelo by Verdelux has got to be one of our most decadent chocolate edibles in the shop. With just a tiny bit of salt on top, this chocolate-covered caramel would be a perfect sweet treat even if it didn’t have CBD and THC in it! The 1:1 ratio is perfect for a mellow high that still packs a great buzz. Now available in a six pack, too!

Green Revolution,
Mixed Flavor Doozies Fruit Chews
The Doozies by Green Revolution are an excellent edible! With 10mg of THC and 2mg of CBD, they are the perfect ratio for a smooth-sailing edible high. The 2mg of CBD really helps curb the sometimes negative effects of edibles that people can experience. The flavors in the pack are peach, marionberry, and sour cherry. Who doesn’t love variety?
