Ever since opening their doors approximately four months ago, the Canadian Cannabis Connoisseur Club (4C) has established itself in the neighbourhood as an approachable, engaging and friendly destination for anyone looking to pick up a wide variety of cannabis products. Their mandate is simple: make everyone feel welcome in the store and the lifestyle in general, whether they’re a first-time cannabis user or a seasoned veteran. Owners Chris and Jason started 4C in order to share their passion for cannabis with the community in an accessible location.
4C’s storefront is setup in a straightforward way. There is ample parking outside on their lot, or on the street along 1 St NE or 39 Ave NE. After entering through the door, visitors are greeted with a wide-open, minimalist layout that prioritizes trendy, colourful brands on display tables, rather than trying to pack too much product and accessories into the space. They’ve made it inviting to browse around and their staff is eager to answer any questions you may have about certain products, or even just get you excited about what they’re feeling lately.
Their selection is expansive, with most of the major cannabis brands present. Their offerings range from value buds (available in single grams, 3.5g, 7g and 28g) to higher-end products created with the connoisseur in mind. But that focus on the higher end of the retail market does not detract from the fact that you can walk into 4C with a $20 bill and leave satisfied with some quality bud. Bright, easy-to-read menus on television screens behind the counter make perusing their selection easy and features all the relevant information about each strain at a glance.
4C is also well-stocked with a variety of legalization 2.0 products, including drinks, edibles, gummies and vape cartridges. Their engaging staff will guide you through any unfamiliar products, and make product recommendations so you can find what fits your style best.
Once the pandemic lifts and as some cannabis regulations ease up or settle in, 4C is looking forward to providing much more of a lounge/hangout vibe. They’re planning on launching a lounge in the back where folks can consume cannabis in a chill social setting, get to know fellow connoisseurs or just make new friends.
