What is the Cannabis Cup? A Backstory of the Cannabis Cup

Originally, the cannabis cup was first organized in 1988 in Amsterdam by Steven Hager, a former editor at High Times which is a popular cannabis magazine. Back in the day, Amsterdam, Netherlands was one of the places where it welcomed and embraced cannabis connoisseurs from all over the place and made them feel at home without being judged or condemned. The cannabis cup is an event gathering cannabis growers and experts to share their experiences about cannabis. Since then, this event has become a global event for cannabis experts and industry investors.

The Cannabis Cup Has Entered Thailand namely the “Phuket Cannabis Cup”

Phuket Cannabis Cup is a cannabis event founded by the Phuket Cannabis Association featuring various competitions, product displays, and discussions on cannabis laws, legalization, and use. The Cannabis Cup plays an important role in sharing information about the cannabis plant and celebrating its uniqueness. It brings many cannabis growers, investors, and companies to jointly (pun intended haha) share some ideas on how to expand the cannabis industry in Thailand including identifying the best cannabis products in certain categories.

They are intended to develop the cannabis quality and create safety standards for consumers. The Phuket Cannabis Association organized the first Phuket Cannabis Cup in March 2023 and only 9 months after the first event, they scheduled the second Phuket Cannabis Cup in December 2023.
