Our Founding Story
What began as a modest dream of owning a restaurant, grew into a thriving business and internationally-renowned, life-changing gourmet infused edible brand, fuelled by a family of enthusiasts dedicated to making their mark within the rich history of cannabis.

Our story begins in the late 90’s when our founder and his brother embarked on a culinary journey together. Passionate about exquisite cuisine and gourmet confections, the two opened a fine dining restaurant attached to a small chocolate and gelato shop in Taos, New Mexico.
Running the restaurant by day and working tirelessly into the night making their chocolate and gelato, the restaurant business took a turn as our founder realized that something had to give. He decided it was time to double down on his true passion as a master chocolatier: gourmet chocolate.
As the chocolate business quickly made a name for itself in New Mexico, the two brothers took their operation to the next level. The older brother began to experiment, knowing there was something missing. Inspired by his brother's homemade chocolate edible, he had the idea to merge the worlds of weed and chocolate, elevating the business and crossing over into the cannabis space.
After countless hours in the kitchen, his 12-year-old recipe reached perfection. In 2010 he moved to California where he finally introduced Bhang – the first gourmet, infused chocolate edible – to the cannabis market.
