After years of research and development, our team is beyond excited to launch the GS brand.
In our other blogs – we’ve briefly introduced you to our company, had you meet kingpin Barry “Flash” Foy, and covered why we chose to launch in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Let’s now talk about another vital topic that concerns smugglers’ lore and also relates intimately to our first product offerings: the importance of tides.
The Planetary Importance of Ocean Tides
First, let’s touch on why tides are so important for our planet. They are caused by the magnetic pull that the Moon and the Sun have on the Earth.
Many crucial factors that concern our everyday lives are impacted by ocean tides. These include worldwide ship navigation, the fishing industry, weather patterns, surfing, among many others. Tides have also been shown to be effective renewable alternative energy sources!
Ecosystems also depend on tides – nourishing marine life, supporting tide pool organisms, allowing sea turtles to lay their eggs, and seabirds to catch fish. As you can see, the tides affect a tremendous amount of life on this planet, and they also just so happen to be crucial in the world of smuggling.
(And especially for marijuana smuggling…)
Tides & Their Connection to the World of Smuggling
For the Gentlemen Smugglers, tides were critical because they dictated just how successful a particular smuggling ‘op’ would turn out to be. Many smugglers were also known as ‘Tiderunners’ for their ability to offload at just the right time.
Of course, throughout their exploits, there were plenty of occasions in which everything in the deal seemed to go right, until they were derailed by one tiny little ‘hiccup’: the tides.
As you can imagine, these tiny hiccups always had a ripple effect. With every minute that was spent waiting on a tide, the chances of the tiderunners not being able to get their vessel in/out of a harbor or dock increased exponentially.
About Our Products – Introducing “High-Tide” and “Low-Tide”
Our team was inspired by the tides when we were choosing the specifics of our product selections, and felt that launching with the categories of “High Tide” & “Low Tide” perfectly summed up our intentions.
With our Gentlemen Smugglers Premium Cannabis Products, you’re free to choose between two tasty experiences to pack in your tacklebox for wherever your (responsible) adventures may take you:
“High Tide” (Sativa-leaning; great for daytime use) & “Low Tide” (Indica-leaning; great for nighttime use).
Here are the initial product offerings we will be launching with:
