Eighty-four-year-old legend Willie Nelson has openly adored cannabis for most of his life, and he wants to share some of his legendary favorite strains with the rest of the world. On August 11, Willie’s Reserve announced its official expansion into the Oregon market.
Willie’s Reserve™ is now available in Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Nevada and select dispensaries in California, according to the company’s interactive map.
Willie’s Reserve™ Ready Roll pre-rolls come in the flavors of Blue City Diesel, Legend OG, Kimbo Kush, Razzleberry, Obama Kush and Cherry Cream. The strains are cultivated by Orekron, Oregon Grown Organics and Strong Roots Farm. They are then distributed by Sovereign Distribution.
Nelson has no plans on quitting cannabis any time soon. “For myself, it’s good for me,” Nelson recently said on CBS Sunday Morning. “It keeps me from going off and doing crazy things. I can relax and play some music and sit around and visit and act like a grown-up, I think.”
Nelson’s wife Annie Nelson launched her own line of cannabis edibles called Annie’s Edibles. Nelson’s love of cannabis was once an anomaly in the country music scene, but more country singers are embracing the plant including Toby Keith.
The company also offers cannabis by the gram, vaporizers and an assortment of edibles. Willie’s Reserve™ is now available at the following locations in Oregon:
