Star Buds opens dispensary, launches craft grow brand
January 7, Star Buds officially opened its first dispensary in Illinois and, partnered with SB IL Grow LLC, became the first licensed predominantly black-owned cannabis business in the Prairie State. In addition to the dispensary, Star Buds is the first in the state to go live with its craft grow facilities and soon will be launching its Kaviar brand in Illinois.
Star Buds dispensary is located at 7844 South Cicero Ave. in Burbank and is open from 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday-Sunday. Kaviar brand products (reviews forthcoming) will be available at Star Buds Burbank in early March. Star Buds will launch first its 1.5g Kaviar Cones, a top selling preroll in Colorado.
Kaviar Cones are a blend of high-quality flower, oil, and kief with THC potency ranging from 30%-50%, and the preroll comes with a custom glass tip.
“We will have our Kaviar brand and Blaze brand,” said Star Buds Operations Manager, Mousa Joudeh. “Our Kaviar Brand will be the connoisseur flower, and the Blaze brand will be our Premium top shelf.”
Star Buds was founded in 2013 by “a team of family and friends with a desire to share their passion for cannabis with the world,” and since, Star Buds has grown from a mom-and-pop shop to a nationally and internationally recognized brand.
“We believe that it is our responsibility to provide high-quality cannabis in a safe and responsible manner,” Joudeh said. “Our operational expertise is driven by our commitment to have a positive impact in our communities and to serve as stewards of the industry and the cannabis movement . . .We are going to bring a different vibe here to Illinois.”
