Nectar | 1624 Northeast 181st Avenue, Portland, Oregon | Cannabis Shop

I must say this store blows a lot of the others out of the water! Very clean, organized, knowledgeable employees ! Prices higher but nicer by far

went in the other day to get a few things: a little flower, an edible, and some prerolls. the flower (while quite expensive) was delicious and smoked perfectly. the edible was fine (prepackaged, i knew what to expect) but the place where my inexperience lay was in the prerolls.

obviously in an instance like this, you lean in on the recommendation of the bud tender, so I asked him about the selection. he pointed me to a brand (Sugar Smokes).

luckily for me, so it seemed, was that they were on sale. the tender explained to me that this is the ONLY brand he smokes and he ASSURED me that they were rolled with flower and not shake, as i had explicitly explained that flavor was important to me.

i make the purchase based on the recommendation, go home, and open the pack. upon looking at one of the sticks, it looked clear as day to be a shake joint. i spark one, and it tastes like lawn clippings.

it's one thing to upsell a product that needs to get off the shelves, but the bold faced lies on this guy were absurd. either the guy had never consumed the product and just lied to me, or has zero taste buds... either way, not a good look.

this place is one of the most expensive in the city, but you go for quality and knowledge.

needless to say, the market for cannabis is so flooded, that unless i can get a full refund (which they assured me I could not as I had smoked one) than i will, positively, never go to another Nectar again... between this experience and hearing how they treat their employees? woof...
