It feels like only a matter of time before weed is completely legalized in the U.S. and man, I can only imagine what the late, great Dimebag Darrell would have said about that. I mean, the dude had a weed term in his stage name. Known for getting high, drinking to excess, and absolutely shredding the world’s goddamned face clean off, so today’s announcement of a new Dimebag Darrell-themed weed makes total fuckin sense.
Dubbed “Dimebag Darrell’s Cannabis From Hell,” the premium cannabis line is launching exclusively in California next week in conjunction with Pantera’s headlining performance at Aftershock Festival on the 10th. The Sacramento-only launch is limited to 1,000 units of what’s being called “Pinteras,” or pre-rolled pinners offered through a collab between Slimmies and Higher Vibes Solutions.
If this all sounds like a hyper limited, super local roll out of the Dimebag weed, you’d be right. That’s because it’s also only going to be available at every Cookies or Lemonnnade dispensary in Sacramento, as well as at the Four Twenty Bank in Palm Springs.
Anyone that brings a receipt showing they bought some of the weed to the Dimebag Hardware booth at the festival, you can also get a free Dimebag Darrell themed gift.
According to to Higher Vibes Solutions CEO Scott “SVH” Von Heldt said the work has been years in the making.
“I was there representing one of my cannabis clients when I met Rita and asked if she’d ever considered doing a cannabis brand in Dime’s honor. She told me, ‘Yeah hun, I have, but everybody flaked, and we never found the right partner to make it happen.’ My response was, ‘Well, you found the right guy.’ From that point on, I made it my mission to find the perfect partners to honor Dime’s legacy with authenticity.”
All told, each package carries an eighth of weed in them spread across ten slim pre-rolled joints, which is apparently how Dime liked to enjoy weed.
Fans can expect to see more from the Cannabis From Hell line, with plans for the following: 3.5g Cemetery Eighths, THC & Hemp-infused Blacktooth Grins, and Redd Fang ready-to-drink Bloody Mary’s. Furthermore, the brand will be dropping some functional gummies under the name of Dimetime, with 20 Blacktooth Berry gummies that apparently boost creativity.
So there ya have it. How many of you crazy heshers are going to Aftershock or just live in the Sacramento area, getcha pull and grab some next week.
