Our Story

Built on cultivation, not hype

Black Tie CBD was founded in 2018 with a simple belief: premium cannabis products should be built on cultivation expertise, transparency, and an uncompromising commitment to quality.

Our Roots

Built by Growers, Not Marketers

While the company officially launched in 2018 following the passage of the Farm Bill, the experience behind Black Tie CBD began much earlier. Founder Kyle Colpack developed his cultivation knowledge during California's Prop 215 era, gaining firsthand experience with cannabis genetics, cultivation techniques, phenotype selection, and post-harvest refinement long before hemp-derived cannabinoids entered the mainstream market.

Those early years shaped the philosophy that continues to guide Black Tie today:

Great cannabis starts with great cultivation

From the beginning, Black Tie has focused on producing flower that prioritizes terpene preservation, genetic integrity, visual appeal, and overall consumer experience. While many companies chase trends, Black Tie has remained committed to the fundamentals that define truly premium cannabis — careful cultivation, meticulous curing, rigorous testing, and a relentless pursuit of quality.

Today, Black Tie serves customers nationwide with a growing selection of Premium THCA Flower, concentrates, edibles, beverages, and curated cannabis experiences designed for both newcomers and experienced enthusiasts.

The cannabis industry has changed dramatically over the past decade. As demand has grown, so has the number of companies entering the market. Yet many brands operate primarily as marketers and resellers, sourcing products from third parties with limited visibility into how those products were actually cultivated.

Black Tie CBD took a different path. Our roots have always been tied to cultivation. We believe understanding the entire process — from genetics and propagation to harvest and curing — is essential to delivering a product consumers can trust. That cultivation-first mindset influences every decision we make.

Instead of focusing solely on cannabinoid percentages, we pay close attention to the factors that experienced consumers know matter most: terpene development, trichome density, environmental controls, proper drying conditions, and long-term phenotype stability.

These details may not always appear on a product label, but they often determine whether flower delivers an average experience or an exceptional one.

A Modern Approach

A Modern Approach to Premium THC-A Flower

As the cannabis market evolved, so did Black Tie CBD. The company has transitioned from its early hemp-focused operations into a modern premium THC-A brand centered around carefully managed indoor and greenhouse cultivation.

Today, our production philosophy revolves around three distinct flower categories that allow consumers to choose products based on cultivation style, value, and overall experience.

Exotic Boston George exotic THC-A flower bud

Exotic THC-A Flower

The highest tier of flower available through Black Tie CBD. These cultivars are selected for exceptional terpene expression, standout genetics, resin production, visual appeal, and overall smoking experience.

Every Exotic strain is chosen because it offers something unique that distinguishes it from standard commercial flower.

Indoor Candy Gas indoor THC-A flower bud with High Times award emblem

Indoor THC-A Flower

Indoor cultivation allows growers to control virtually every environmental variable. Temperature, humidity, lighting, airflow, and feeding schedules can all be optimized to maximize consistency and quality.

Light Dep Blue Slushie light dep THC-A flower bud

Light Dep & Light Assist

Greenhouse cultivation that pairs natural sunlight with modern technology — light deprivation in spring and summer, light assist through fall and winter.

Hand-Selected

Chosen by people who grow

From living-soil indoor cultivation to hand-trimming and a patient, slow cure, every selection reflects the same cultivation-first standard — then it is curated for the experience it delivers, not just the number on the label.

Recognition

Award-Winning Roots, Future-Focused Standards

Black Tie CBD's commitment to quality has earned recognition from both customers and industry leaders. Shortly after the company's launch, Black Tie began receiving attention for producing flower that could compete alongside some of the most respected cannabis products in the country.

1st Place
2023 High Times Hemp Cup

Best Psychoactive Hemp Flower — premium aroma, appearance and experience, fully compliant with federal hemp regulations.

Top Honors
2019 Oregon Growers Cup

Innovative flower and specialty products earned recognition, establishing the team as a premier force in cultivation.

2nd Place
2019 High Times DOPE Cup

Best CBD Flower (High Desert) — federally compliant hemp flower competed directly against marijuana-derived CBD entries.

While the industry has evolved significantly since those early competitions, the principles that earned those awards remain unchanged: exceptional genetics, careful cultivation, meticulous processing, and a commitment to delivering products that stand apart from the ordinary.

Our Standards

A Commitment to Transparency

Quality means little if customers cannot verify it. That's why transparency has become one of the foundational principles of Black Tie CBD. Every batch is supported by third-party laboratory testing that helps verify cannabinoid content, compliance standards, and product quality. Rather than asking customers to take our word for it, we provide the information necessary for them to make informed purchasing decisions.

This commitment to transparency has become increasingly important as THC-A products continue to gain popularity across the United States. Modern consumers expect accountability. We agree.

Whether someone is purchasing flower, THCA concentrates, THC gummies, beverages, or one of our curated subscription options, they deserve access to clear and reliable information about what they're buying.

What Sets Black Tie CBD Apart?

In today's market, consumers have more choices than ever before. The challenge is knowing which brands genuinely prioritize quality and which rely primarily on marketing tricks. At Black Tie, we believe the difference becomes clear when you examine the details:

01

Looking Ahead

The standard keeps rising

The cannabis industry continues to evolve rapidly. Consumer expectations are increasing. Regulations continue to change. New genetics emerge every year. Cultivation technology becomes more sophisticated. And consumers have access to more information than ever before.

We welcome those changes.

In many ways, they align perfectly with what Black Tie CBD has always stood for: transparency, accountability, innovation, and quality.

As we continue growing, our mission remains unchanged. We will continue investing in premium cultivation, expanding our product offerings, improving the customer experience, and raising the standards consumers should expect from hemp-derived cannabis products.

Most importantly, we will continue approaching every harvest, every product, and every customer relationship with the same philosophy that inspired Black Tie CBD from the beginning:
