The Pistol and Paris Story
Pistol and Paris is a West Coast-based cannabis company known for its premium quality flower. The company prides itself on focusing solely on small-batch cannabis, meaning they carefully select each strain for quality over quantity. The team behind Pistol and Paris collaborates with craft cannabis growers who share their passion for bringing out the best in cannabis genetics. Their mission is simple: to produce high-quality, potent strains that are meticulously curated to deliver a superior consumer experience.
Their approach involves cultivating in optimal environments with hand-tended plants, careful drying, and precise curing to preserve terpene profiles. The result is a rich, flavorful experience with every inhale. Pistol and Paris isn’t about just getting high—they’re about elevating the cannabis journey.
Dylan and Brittany King of Pistol and Paris are deeply rooted in the legacy cannabis market, particularly on Vancouver Island, where they gained valuable experience in small-batch, high-quality cannabis production. Dylan’s passion for cannabis led him to transition from the legacy market to the legal industry, ensuring that the artisanal quality of their product remains intact. Their reputation in the legacy market is built on a commitment to craft cultivation, quality control, and maintaining the authenticity that the cannabis community values.
Pink Goo is an indica-dominant hybrid strain that perfectly encapsulates the artistic flair Pistol and Paris brings to its cannabis. This strain is a cross between Pink Kush and Afgooey, both of which are known for their powerful effects and distinct flavor profiles.
Appearance and Aroma: Pink Goo boasts deep green buds laced with vibrant pink and purple hues. When you open the jar, you're greeted with a sweet, earthy aroma with undertones of fresh berries. The pungent scent is a direct result of the high terpene content, specifically myrcene and limonene, which deliver both relaxation and a sweet, citrusy flavor.
Effects: As a primarily indica strain, Pink Goo leans into its relaxing, sedative effects. Users report a strong body high that is excellent for relieving chronic pain, stress, and insomnia. With THC levels often exceeding 20%, this strain is not for the faint of heart. The euphoria it induces makes it perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day or simply achieving a deep, restful sleep.
Grow Notes: Pink Goo thrives best in a controlled indoor environment where humidity levels are maintained, and the plants are pruned regularly. This strain requires attention to detail, making it an excellent choice for small-batch growing setups like those favored by Pistol and Paris.

Death Bubba is a name synonymous with power. This indica-dominant strain is a cross between Death Star and Bubba Kush, known for its powerful sedative effects and rich flavors.
Appearance and Aroma: Death Bubba’s appearance is nothing short of breathtaking. It produces medium-sized forest green buds, each coated in sticky resin and orange pistils. It has an incredibly pungent scent—earthy and musky with a hint of pine, thanks to a terpene profile rich in myrcene and pinene.
Effects: True to its name, Death Bubba is a knockout. It's known for its intense sedative effects, which kick in quickly after smoking, making it perfect for those who need serious relief from pain, anxiety, or insomnia. It's often used for medical purposes due to its high THC content, which typically ranges between 25-27%.
Grow Notes: Death Bubba thrives in an indoor environment, where its flowering period is tightly controlled to preserve its potent aroma and flavor. Pistol and Paris' dedication to small-batch grows means this strain gets all the attention it needs to flourish

Black Out Bobby exudes a complex aroma, combining earthy, herbal, and skunky notes with hints of pepper and citrus. It has a rich terpene profile, with dominant levels of linalool and myrcene, which give it a strong floral yet musky scent.
Effects: Black Out Bobby is not for novice smokers. It has been known to cause couch-lock even for seasoned users. This strain is particularly effective for managing chronic pain, stress, and insomnia. With THC levels often testing at 25% or higher, it’s best used in the evening or when you don’t have any plans, as it can leave you completely relaxed and euphoric.

For those who love a complex and heavy-hitting hybrid, Gas & Roses is a strain you need to know about. A cross between White Runtz and Jet Fuel Gelato, this strain represents a perfect blend of potent effects and bold flavors.
Appearance and Aroma: The buds are dense, boasting deep greens, oranges, and purples that shimmer with a thick coating of trichomes. Gas & Roses earns its name from its pungent, gassy aroma mixed with subtle floral notes. Its terpene profile, dominated by caryophyllene and limonene, provides an interesting balance between sharp, spicy, and sweet.
Effects: Gas & Roses delivers a perfect hybrid effect—users can expect an initial mental uplift followed by a deep body relaxation. This strain is excellent for both daytime and evening use, thanks to its balanced effects. Whether you're looking to relieve stress or just enjoy a creative burst of energy, Gas & Roses offers a versatile high.
Grow Notes: Gas & Roses is a resilient strain that can thrive in both indoor and outdoor environments. However, like most of Pistol and Paris' offerings, it benefits from controlled, small-batch cultivation, which allows for the maximization of its terpene and cannabinoid profiles.
