California is the top producer of both weed and wine in America. But the two industries have remained separate — until now.

These experiences combine the pleasures of traditional wine tasting with the latest cannabis products.

Ready to add a new twist your wine tasting experience? Here are the top-rated wine and weed tours in California to consider. Keep in mind that some experiences do not allow weed consumption on tour, while others openly encourage it. Additionally, all above age 21 are welcome, even those who do not consume weed.

The Sonoma County Experience’s Wine & Cannabis tour is an excellent choice for wine aficionados looking to enrich their cannabis knowledge in an intimate setting. You’ll visit a cannabis garden to understand how weed is grown, as well as a dispensary for a Q&A session with a representative. You’ll be guided through vineyards forΒ a firsthand perspective on the similarities between viticulture and cannabis cultivation (past wineries have included Larson Vineyards and Dutton Ranch).

To caveat: No cannabis consumption is allowed on the tour, but guests are welcome to purchase their own weed from a local dispensary.
