The Higher Path
6/17/2016
2014 found me traveling up and down the California Coast between FarNorCal and LA for work and play...then I met a play that I wanted to stay for and 2016 finds me relocated back to the...Valley?! Thank goodness THP is here to salve my Gen-X soul into accepting that I have indeed gone rogue and grown up...and it's more than okay!
When one enters THP, the bustle and blister of Ventura Blvd. is mellowed away by chill music, cool beverage offerings, and the smiles of THP Team. When there is a wait, the front room radiates good vibes and tranquility. One may gaze at the road-ragers with empathy as one considers the day's flavour. The back room is clean, stocked, and efficient. What I truly appreciate is the diversity of the crew. Each budtender has his/her/their own custom canni-curation for your needs ready via friendly, kind, no-pressure but knowledgeable dialogue that is welcoming and respectful.
Their flower is displayed and maintained with care. THP keeps flower with flower and shake with shake. They call type correctly. I appreciate this. I'm the furthest thing from a Humboldt Hunny, but my hum-grown heart bleeds Redwoods and I know my 'yada.' I value that THP does as well. With the boom in MMJ Delivery and Dispensaries it seems like quality is being trumped for the almighty...but I digress.
I lean toward exotics and require robust elevation: I have tasted some of my all-time fave flavors at THP: Daytripper, Blue Satellite (please get these 2 back in!), Black Lotus, and my current rave: Chem Scout!
I'm Humboldt Homegrown through and through, but my ever-budding heart has much appreciation for the standard and care The Higher Path offers their patients.
