Khalifa Kush has been something of an urban legend in the cannabis community. Developed over the course of years under Wiz's direction, it has thus far been available only in small batches popping up primarily at dispensaries in California. Tryke, with more than 165,000 square feet of cultivation facilities in Nevada and Arizona, is the first to grow the strain at a commercial scale. It will then be sold as part of Tryke’s Exotics by Berner line, a selection of premium strains acquired through the company’s partnership with Bay Area rapper and cannabis entrepreneur Berner.
Reef Dispensaries serves patients at its five locations in Nevada and Arizona. Offering exclusive brands, including “Tryke Exotics by Berner”, paired with concierge customer service, Reef is setting a new standard for the medical marijuana industry.
