Have A Heart Vendor Spotlight: Freddy’s Fuego from Poulsbo, WA

By hahoakland

When we first launched our business back in 2011, we could only dream that one day we might become one of the West Coast’s—and Iowa’s!—favorite families of medical and recreational dispensaries. We knew from the start that we’d need to find a very particular kind of vendor and partner in this business, the kind that was serious about producing the very best cannabis possible under strict supervision and quality controls. That’s why we’re so excited our Washington dispensaries carry the top-notch cannabis products of Freddy’s Fuego.

Located in the quaint shoreline town of Poulsbo, WA, Freddy’s Fuego occupies a unique space in the cannabis growing world, using small-scale, hands-on techniques to produce cannabis on a commercial scale. Follow along as we share their story and details about some of their products that get us really excited.

Freddy’s Fuego: Adapting the Microbrewery Model to the World of Cannabis

 Freddys 1

Nestled into scenic Liberty Bay, a narrow inlet West of the greater Puget Sound, Poulsbo wasn’t much associated with the cannabis world until 2017, when Freddy’s Fuego opened for business. The idea was simple: Adapting the style of the superlative microbreweries that characterize the Pacific Northwest’s beer scene to a cannabis growing operation.

This meant scaling the traditional 8-light growing room used by many independent producers into a 24-light form. Freddy’s Fuego ended up building 8 such rooms into a spacious warehouse facility. Multiple rooms enable the company to keep up a nearly continuous harvest cycle. This makes for long workdays, but also guarantees that high-quality flower is rolling down the pike at any point in the month.  It’s a safe bet that more are currently in the works; one area of the Freddy’s grow facility is a research-and-development room dubbed the “Secret Garden.”

Speaking of that flower, Freddy’s Fuego employs an extended curing schedule to squeeze all the terpene intensity out of their carefully coddled buds. Last year, the company also inaugurated an extraction facility, from which they now produce hash oils and other concentrates.

Freddy’s Fuego: Standout Strains

We’d love to share details of some of our favorite strains. That said, be sure to check each dispensary’s live menu before heading down, as available stocks change at the drop of a dime!

Density is the keyword here: Once you pry open this strain’s resinous nuggets, you’ll be rewarded by a sweet, spicy aroma with floral hints. The flavor lingers on as you enjoy a strong body buzz in tandem with a heavy (but not groggy) cerebral effect.

Sin Mint Cookies

This strain will beguile you with light frosty green hues, speckled with deep purple highlights. The aroma is sweet sugar cookies, and the experience even sweeter.  Freddy’s Fuego describes this as a “crisp sweet smoke” that imparts a heady, long-lasting buzz for hours.

This strain is often described as “deep” and “sumptuous,” leaving the consumer satisfied “like a cheeseburger after a hard day’s work.” The body buzz is potent yet unchallenging, allowing you to relax while crossing things off your list. The cerebral effects are similar: Happy but not overwhelming. We also love it for its very clean and piney aroma.
