Tobacco Master

Before the vaporizer, before the dab rig, before the bubbler . . . hell . . . even before ol’ Bob stumbled onto color-changing glass, there was the TokeMaster.

Conceived in the Summer of Love (that’s 1967, dear millennials), the TokeMaster isn’t just another acrylic water pipe; it’s a piece of history. It’s the original acrylic water pipe by which all others should be judged and subsequently cast aside. Disagree? Name another that endured being run over by a State Trooper’s vehicle repeatedly before the kindly officer gave up and chucked it in the woods. You can’t. Any other iteration of the category would have given up the ghost without a fight on the first attempt. At Uncle Sam’s insistence, the name has since changed to TobaccoMaster, but every unit is still made from the same proprietary mold of heavy duty, hand-spun acrylic and every inch of it, all the way down to the brass hardware, is made right here in the USA.

It’s a vestige of nostalgia. It’s a makeshift self-defense method. It’s the potential solution for frustrated college kids with clumsy suitemates. It’s the TobaccoMaster, FKA the TokeMaster, and it’s still the king of acrylics, now 50 years and counting.

It’s almost amazing that the same institutions that brought us the 2008 financial crisis have a problem with selling glass pipes. Almost. The truth is that an industry's past sins are only held against it when the money isn’t right. Big banks were willing to risk cratering the U.S. housing market because the profits were too good to ignore. But the cannabis industry rolls a different kind of paper, so instead of a slap on the wrist, it gets a surcharge.
Smokeshop and counterculture enthusiasts enjoy discovery as part of the experience. Customers enjoy browsing. When they walk into a shop, they don't simply grab a product and leave. They look for something new. This is the main reason flyers and posters still work. Smokeshops and dispensaries are highly visual environments. You want to see bold artwork, psychedelic graphics, and street-style posters that naturally capture attention.
The use of cannabis in professional sports has always been a controversial subject. While some are firm believers that all substances should be banned from professional sports altogether, most people aren’t thinking about cannabis when they’re discussing performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs).

Hemp is often considered for the things that it is not. It is not intoxicating, it is not illegal, and it is not marijuana. However, now we are seeing a focus back to what it can be. The plant is moving into the level of wine and chocolate and becoming a movement and a culture.
It’s been several months since President Donald Trump signed an executive order to reschedule cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III within the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).

For years, we’ve been told that this industry is the Wild West: a place where the only law amounts to whatever the guy with the gun says.
