Try Smoking a Joint With Your Next Glass of Wine

As marijuana goes mainstream, the conversation around it has become increasingly sophisticated—with the kind of emphasis on producers, clones, terroir, and even tasting notes that one more typically associates with wine.

For those who reside in one of the twenty-three states (and the District of Columbia) that has laws legalizing marijuana in some form, it’s likely that you know at least one person with a medical marijuana card. If you’re lucky enough to live in Oregon, Washington, Colorado, or Alaska, you don’t even need one to get stoned.

In some ways, pot enthusiasts are starting to style themselves more like sommeliers—even taking on names like ganjiers and cannasseurs. According to Allison Edrington, Editor-in-Chief of cannabis website The Ganjier, the term ganjier was spawned by the site’s co-founder, Kevin Jodery, and “a couple of guys” who wanted to create a word to describe themselves, but that could also be applied to any cannabis expert.
