Enter to Compete for The Errl Cup
Arizona's Cannabis Awards for Dispensaries & PatientsEnter to Win Errl Cup Event
We have 2 Arizona Cannabis Awards and Events and Cannabis Awards and Events in other states.
Next Event:
5th Annual Errl Cup Event
Jan. 11, 2020
In January, we hold the Errl Cup event where we go to dispensaries across Maricopa county and other parts of Arizona to secret shop them for flower they produce.
To qualify to be secret shopped you must grow your own flower. If a dispensary grows their own flower we will secret shop the best flower they produce and allow the bud tender to make that choice of medication.
The only knowledge of the flower that we will have before walking into the dispensary is if we need to buy a Sativa, Indica or Hybrid. The rest of the decision is based on what the dispensaries bud tender choice is.
Dispensary and Patients can enter in over 31 categories. We break these categories up into two classes, Dispensary Class and Patient Class.
4th Annual 710 Degree Cup
July 11th 2020
In July we hold the 710 Degree Cup event, where we go to dispensaries and marijuana producers in dispensaries across Arizona and secret shop them for concentrates they produce.
To qualify to be secret shopped you must be a licence’d dispensary and make your own concentrate. If a dispensary makes their own concentrate we will secret shop the best concentrate they produce and allow the bud tender to make that choice of medication.
Every marijuana products producer, cultivator, or extractor that produces a concentrate medicine we will be secret shopping through the various dispensaries where their products are carried.
The only part of the secret shop that we decide is if we need to buy a Sativa, Indica or Hybrid. The rest of the decision is based on what the dispensaries bud tender choice is.
Dispensary and Patients can enter in over 31 categories. We break these categories up into two classes, Dispensary Class and Patient Class.
