BUD REVIEW🍃

All Times Mini Pre-Roll by Miss Grass

I had the pleasure of attending a Miss Grass event in Chicago, complete with delicious food, refreshing drinks, and samples of their All Times Mini pre-rolls. Mingling with industry pros and fellow tokers on a rooftop was an absolute delight, and it made me fall in love with the brand.

Miss Grass started as an educational platform and community for cannabis enthusiasts, which allowed them to understand their audience and create top-notch pre-rolls. Now expanding to infused pre-rolls and 4.2g premium flower, they truly know how to give a little extra love—just like your favorite plug might do for their best customers. I approve!

They prioritize community, discovering what cannabis users love and crafting 2.5g mini pre-rolls in a sleek box, complete with matches. The focus is on quality flower and terpene profiles—not just strains.

The All Times mini pre-roll are perfect. I enjoy pre-rolls; they are ready to smoke and easy to carry. I felt relaxed and mellow but not tired, I was comfortable being social and connecting with like-minded people and industry professionals. These minis are the right amount; I smoked about 1.5 to 2 during the 3-hour event.

From your friendly budster, Katie
