Review by Andrew Hamilton

Came out of KC this am, thought I would stop and check this place out. Great Scotch prices, they beat every liquor store in all of Kansas City, and had a better selection! Super nice staff! Thank you for making my 5 hour drive much more fun than normal! See you on my way back!

Wow! If you're looking for collector bottles of booze this is the place. I was impressed. Would love to see some tellamore dew 12 year on the shelf.

Review by Greg Christie

Amazed by the selection these guys have. The scotch choices are one of the best in town. Even better too, the workers can help direct you to the flavor you are looking for. Not much to look at from the outside but once you are in the store has quite a bit of character. A nice place to stop by after getting a nice bowl of Pho across the street.

Review by Steve Hansen

Awesome selection and the owners are great people. They helped pick some options I wouldn’t have thought to buy. Ty

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
