10 Essential 420 Products You Should Try for an Elevated Experience
There are a few essential 420 products that will make your day better; some are fresh to the market, and others you’ll wish you had discovered sooner.
As cannabis legalization continues to sweep the nation, and continuous releases of new and innovative cannabis products, you can celebrate 420 in the most unique of ways. Whether you’re looking for a different kind of buzz on this special day, no buzz at all, you can tailor your experience for exactly what you like with these essential 420 products.
Sträva CBD-Infused Coffee
There are no written rules for 420, but starting the day with a wake and bake should be one of them. For some, waking and baking with THC can either make or break their day, which makes hemp-derived CBD a safer alternative. “Peace & Wellness” by Sträva Craft Coffee is small batch roasted in Denver, Colorado, will help you start your day alert, focused, calm and jitter-free. Infused with full-spectrum organic hemp oil, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a little extra CBD in your routine.
Manitoba Harvest: Organic Hemp Hearts
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not give your body an additional boost? Manitoba’s Hemp Hearts are a great way to give your body a burst of nutrients and you can sprinkle them on your cereal, or yogurt, or blend them into smoothies.
Felix & Ambrosia: Sunny Daze Sun Cream
April isn’t exactly sunny and 75, but protecting your skin from the harmful effects of UV rays is a must year-round. If you’re spending 420 having fun in the sun, then shield your body’s largest and most precious organ during those outdoor smoke sessions and get your daily dose of CBD with Felix & Ambrosia’s Sunny Daze Sun Cream. Not only does it provide 25 mg of CBD, but also 30 SPF and a dash of sparkle and shine with its biodegradable glitter. It’s also fragrance-free, so it won’t interfere with your favorite cologne or body mist.
Herb Saver: Dual Arc Lighter
Tired of your lighter going missing? The plasma beam torch lighter from Herb Saver solves this issue completely by designing this unique lighter made from free form plasma energy. Plus, it’s butane free, making it a healthier option for those that don’t use hemp wicks.
Smoking Shades
Provided that the skies are clear this 420, of rainy weather and actual clouds that is, you’re going to need some shades. Why not kill two birds with one stone and sport a pair that will keep the sun out of your eyes and get you lifted when you feel like it? That would be Smoking Shades, the world’s first smokable sunglasses. Available in your choice of matte and brushed black frames, along with grey, green, and blue polarized lenses plus blue mirror polarized lenses, these sneaky shades feature a hidden bowl in one arm with a mouthpiece on the tip and a storage spot in the opposite.
Candy Relics Ceramic Can
Smoking weed from an aluminum pipe was almost a rite of passage for cannabis consumers of yore. These days, however, things are a little more classy. Cue the Can Pipe available from Ladies of Paradise. Cast from an actual aluminum can, this a porcelain version is not just a fun conversation piece, it’s also fully functional.
Concentrates: The Hanu Stone
Developed by cannabis entrepreneur and former stuntman Seibo Shen and the team at Vapexhale, the Hanu Stone portable vaporizer was inspired by a rock found on San Francisco’s Ocean Beach. The Hanu Stone uses a ceramic wick in lieu of heavy metals, making it a safer and healthier alternative for concentrate fans.
Flower: The Mendo Pipe

MIA Water Pipe Snoop POUNDS G2

Now, the line is getting an upgrade with the Snoop POUNDS G2 collection, featuring MIA, a water pipe and dab rig all in one. The MIA comes with an herb bowl and dab kit, including a carb cap, banger, and nail, giving you the best of both worlds. The only thing you need to bring to the station is a lighter or torch, and of course, the sticky-icky.
Big Mike’s Blend
For the past 20 years, Big Mike set the standard with cannabis nutrition with Advanced Nutrients. He also set the standard with knowing how to have a good time. Now, you can harness his larger-than-life energy with his Hells Bells pre-roll. Blended with cannabinoid and terpene profiles to deliver specific cannabis experiences, Hells Bells will help you turn up any 420 parties.

Wiz Khalifa Debuts New Taylor Gang x Stündenglass Collab
Wiz Khalifa and his entertainment company Taylor Gang Ent. have collaborated with Stündenglass, the world’s first gravity-powered infuser, to introduce the iconic gold and black Taylor Gang x Stündenglass.
“I’m honored to have collaborated with long time friend Wiz Khalifa, who is as passionate about this product as I am. Our mutual admiration for Stündenglass made it a natural collaboration,” Stündenglass CEO Chris Folkerts said via a press release.
Taylor Gang x Stündenglass is an authentic collaboration developed after the multi-platinum-selling, Grammy-winning, Golden Globe-nominated Khalifa discovered Stündenglass and began enjoying it regularly as seen on his Instagram.
“I love my Stündenglass, and I’m pumped everyone gets to experience this with me now,” Khalifa.
The infuser features a patented 360-degree gravity system that elicits a powerful and immersive experience. It generates kinetic motion activation via cascading water, opposing airflow technology and the natural force of gravity.
The Taylor Gang gravity bing comes in an exclusive black and gold colorway and features two glass globes on a metal base made of aircraft-grade aluminum, surgical grade stainless steel, and high-quality Teflon seals.
Taylor Gang includes artists Ty Dolla $ign, Juicy J, and Berner among others — the former of which has his own line Stündenglass collab with his Cookies brand.
“We’re very excited to launch the official Taylor Gang x Stündenglass. We use glass in our everyday lives, so it only made sense to team up and create an exclusive Taylor Gang collaboration for the fans,” Taylor Gang said.
