About the event
The Format
A multi-round, skills-based competition. No judges. No politics. No brand bias. Just you, your nose, and the hash.
You receive a Flight Manifest listing cultivars and their genetics. You smell and taste each sample, served in randomized order. Match every sample to the correct cultivar on your manifest. Get the full order right? You advance. Miss one? You're done. Rounds continue until one competitor remains standing.
Round 1 runs across three simultaneous groups. One group competes on the main tournament floor, open for all guests to watch. The remaining two groups run concurrently in the VIP area, offering a more intimate setting for VIP ticket holders to watch up close.
The Prizes
1st Place: $3,000 cash + Ganjier Product Certification Enrollment + Dr. Dabber device + Sponsor goodie bag
2nd Place: $500 cash + Dr. Dabber device + Sponsor goodie bag
3rd Place: Dr. Dabber device + Sponsor goodie bag
