Starbuds and Vertical Companies™ Form Joint Venture to Launch Popular Luxury Cannabis Brand Kaviar in California and Arizona Markets

LA-based Vertical, among the world’s largest vertically integrated companies in the cannabis industry, is pleased to announce a partnership with popular luxury cannabis brand, Kaviar, to bring its signature Kaviar Moonrocks and Kaviar Cones to licensed retail locations throughout California and Arizona.

Colorado based Kaviar has developed an exquisite lineup of artisan, made-from-scratch concentrates and infused cones. “Right from the start, we knew that we wanted to build a brand that both customers and dispensaries could count on for professionalism, consistency, quality, and innovation,” said Moe Atieh, General Manager of Kaviar.

J. Smoke Wallin, President of Vertical Companies, running distribution, sales and marketing, added “Our mission is to assemble the most desirable portfolio of brands for our retail customers. The Starbuds team has built out an incredible large-scale operation in Colorado over the past five years. They have perfected Kaviar in Colorado and we expect it to be a huge hit for our Arizona and California customers.”

Kaviar’s products center around the Trifecta—Flower, Oil, Kief—and include Moonrocks, Kief, and Pre-Rolled Cones. Kaviar’s signature Moonrocks begin with premium cannabis infused with hash oil, gently coated with kief, slightly heated, re-oiled and re-rolled in kief creating a consistently dense, potent, and smooth character. Kaviar Cones are premium flower infused with hash oil, ground and expertly rolled in kief before adding a signature Kaviar branded glass tip.
