Walking into a weed dispensary in San Bernardino today feels a lot like stepping into a specialty coffee shop. The menu is bigger, the options are more curated, and the flavors are far more specific than “it smells loud.” That is great news, but it also means you can miss a lot if you only shop by THC percentage or strain name. Learning to “taste” cannabis is not about being fancy. It is a practical skill that helps you spot freshness, understand quality, and choose flower and other cannabis products that match what you actually enjoy. This guide follows the same flow as the reference article, with a step-by-step approach you can use whether you are browsing jars at Packs San Bernardino or picking something new for the weekend.
