COLD-CHAIN & DISPENSARY BUYING PROTOCOL
Taxes, Freezer Checks & Jar Storage
California adds a 15% state excise tax plus local municipal cannabis taxes (total 24%-35% at register). Because Southern and Central California temperatures routinely exceed 80F, only buy 90u Fresh Press or Six-Star Water Hash from dispensaries with dedicated 0F/-18C freezers on the sales floor (Look for Kalya Pop-Vac or 710 Labs Miron cold-chain seals).
