Do you love weed? Are you a little bit judgy? Then this could be the job for you: High Times is looking for 2,100 Oregonians to determine the state’s marijuana for the 2023 Cannabis Cup.
Anyone 21 and over can be a judge for the cup, which is returning for the first time since 2020. Judges will get to sample gummies, cannabis flower, pre-rolls, concentrates and more, depending on the category they select, and then report back on what they they thought of the products.
“Oregon has always been at the forefront of cannabis legalization and innovation, and High Times is thrilled to continue to celebrate the amazing local products and evolution of the state’s cannabis industry with the return of Cannabis Cup,” said Mark Kazinec, the vice president of High Times events and competitions, in a press release sent out by the magazine. “For judges, this is an opportunity to explore a diversity of top-notch products and have your voice heard and feedback count.”
Kits will be available Friday, Sept. 30, at many dispensaries around the state and you can visit cannabiscup.com/preregister to preregister. But, bad news for anyone who was hoping to get high for free – these kits will cost money.
Kits will be sold based on category on a first-come, first-serve basis. The kits will cost between $40 and $90 before tax but will include five to 13 different products and a tie-dye or black High Times tote bag.
