TORONTO, Oct. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tilray Brands, Inc. ("Tilray" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: TLRY; TSX: TLRY), a leading global cannabis and consumer packaged goods company, today announced that its heritage Canadian craft-cannabis brand, Broken Coast, has ranked number one for its Sunset Sherbet flower at the Collector's Cup b.lounge edition hosted by Budtenders Association and CannaReps.

With 75 full reviews, the ranking involved judgment of each cultivar’s physical appeal, aromatic profile, and blind taste tests. With the guidance of a certified cannabis sommelier and the CannaReps Cannabis Quality Grading Tool to input scores, Broken Coast came in at number one for the highest score in each category during each trial session.

Sunset Sherbet is one of the most popular cultivars ever grown by Broken Coast. Exhibiting dense indica flowers with deep purple and silver colouration, the large calyxes are covered so thickly in glandular trichomes they're almost white. With the most abundant terpenes being caryophyllene, linalool, and myrcene, Sunset Sherbet is a fruit-forward strain that evokes the taste and aromas of strawberries and guava.

"We are honoured to receive top ranking from the Budtender’s Association, leaders in education and cannabis research in partnership with Canada’s Budtenders,” says Kyle Asselstine, Broken Coast Brand Manager.

Broken Coast’s craft cannabis flower, including Sunset Sherbet and Amnesia Haze, is available in select markets across Canada, including British Columbia, Ontario, and Alberta.
