The Experience, Emeryville: Ohana Cannabis Co. Soothes

The Experience:

Got the Blues? Chase them away!

Sherbinskis Bacio Gelato is your ticket. Think Sunset Sherbert x Thin Mint Cookies.

Consuming this indica-dominant strain is like diving into a big bowl of gelato, that velvety experience of Italian ice cream. With a hint of sweetness up front, and heady earth tones on the backend, Bacio has a bold and full-bodied mouthfeel with latent tingly effects.

Tasting Notes: Cream, hazelnuts, chocolate, spices, pine, earth Pairs well with: Friday nights, staycations, movies and munchies, having some friends over, roaming around the neighborhood, sleeping-in.

With a higher THC than other Gelato strains, this cultivar is wonderful for those with a higher tolerance. Perfect for nighttime relaxation, allowing the day to melt away, or to daydream and chase the blues away.

THC: ~29-32%
CBD: ~2%
Total Cannabinoids: ~36% (from Sherbinskis webite)

Do you ever wonder what all the acronyms mean? Here is a quick synopsis:

*CBD is for PAIN, & RELAXATION, stress relief, and combatting inflammation, potentially helping to reduce seizures, as an analgesic and produces an overall ‘feel good’. For most it creates a relaxing and calming experience. Produces a nonexistent high.
CBN is for SLEEP. For some it is described as a mild analgesia and a potential aid for sleep. Produces a nonexistent high.
CBG is for PAIN, ANXIETY, NAUSEA It is purported when combined with THC Delta 9 to block the detection of a painful or injurious stimulus by sensory neurons. Produces a nonexistent high.
THC is for our classic ‘HIGH’, and there are different ‘levels of high’, different varieties from mood enhancers to pain and anxiety reducers, and more. Ask your Ohana consultant about the differences between them and their doses.

The Experience:

The Trophy Club @ Tipsy Putt!

It feels like a retro style bar that hints at the historical Speakeasy era, reminiscent of the old Townhouse in the days of old in Emeryville. Owners Brandon and Jennifer Robinson have created an adult ‘drinkertaiment’ concept with three brands – Tipsy Putt taproom, Mini-golf and the Trophy Club lounge hidden inside Tipsy Putt.

The Tipsy Putt bar serves up 40 taps of local craft beer including Emeryville’s own Wondrous Brewing beer, as well as tasty bites – tacos, nachos and more. Their mini golf course is challenging and great fun for groups, young ones until 5pm and 21+ after 5. Mayor John Bauters and vice mayor Courtney Welch celebrated their Grand Opening on Jan 31.

Fans gathered yesterday, February 8, for the opening of the Trophy Club, your new go-to place for cocktails.

“The beauty of the Trophy Club,” explained member and fan of the Sacramento Tipsy Putt’s Trophy Lounge, Shane Bharat, “is that it’s low key and chill. You have a purpose when you are here. At the very beginning of the Sacramento Trophy Club, I literally came for a Coca Cola that they made from scratch. I have always felt very welcome and love what they do for members. Love their events.”

Memberships and events are now available in Emeryville! Visit soon, take a tour and learn about the benefits.

Valentine’s @ the Trophy Club means Chocolate Grenache on fresh long stemmed strawberries. Plus more delectable bites and drinks. Current Bites offered include Charcuterie Board, Cheese Board, Chef’s Board – both meat and cheese – and Baguette & Marinated Olives with House-Made Giardirniera. This menu will evolve!

What they’re serving is unique with house-made syrups (banana & simple syrups), house-dehydrated fruit garnishes, fresh juices, fresh herb infusions (rosemary infusion) and more. They even make their own grenadine in house. And Valentine drinks are on the bar menu until the end of the month!

Bitter Taste of Love – Gin, Campari, crème de mure and orange bitters. Strong, bitter, semi-fruity.

Love Me Tender – Ramazzotti Aperitivo, vodka, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup (house-made) egg white and angostura bitters. Refreshing, floral, silky.

White Wedding – Blanco tequila, fresh squeezed lime juice,m kumquat liqueur, Licor 43, ginger beer and cream. Fruity, creamy, effervescent.

All cocktails are curated by their mixologists, Josh & Marqui. Get down there and meet them at the Trophy Club! And then try your hand at mini golf and check out their 40 beers on tap. You’ll find Tipsy Putt & Trophy Club at the north end of Bay St (5690) across from Hyatt Place. (510) 356-8222.
