Whether you’re new to cannabis or a seasoned connoisseur, our high-quality THC products and on-site consumption options make us the top choice for marijuana enthusiasts in Alaska.

With the best weed in Alaska, The Tufted Puffin offers an exceptional selection of cannabis strains, concentrates, edibles, and more. Let’s dive into the essentials you need to know about cannabis education to make the most of your experience.

Sativa

Indica

Kush

Sativa strains are known for their uplifting, energizing effects. These tall, narrow-leaf plants originated in Europe and western Eurasia, where they were historically cultivated for seeds, fiber, and hashish. Commonly referred to as the strain that helps you “get things done,” Sativas are perfect for daytime use or creative activities. Locals in Seward joke about using Sativa to power through housecleaning!

 
 

Indica strains, recognized by their broad leaves and shorter stature, are famous for their relaxing and calming effects. Originally cultivated in the 18th century for hashish, seed, and fiber, Indica is the ultimate choice for unwinding after a long day. Often nicknamed “In Da Couch,” this strain is perfect for sleepytime relaxation—a favorite among our customers in Soldotna.

 
 

Kush strains are a versatile category of cannabis that can be Sativa, Indica, or hybrid. Descending from the rugged Hindu Kush Mountains on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, Kush strains are cherished for their rich flavors and balanced effects. At The Tufted Puffin, Kush is a go-to for many of our Alaskan customers.

 
 

Cannabinoids: THC and CBD

Cannabis Education – Cannabis 101

CBD
(Cannabidiol)

THC
(Tetrahydrocannabinol)

Terpenes

CBD is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid that promotes relaxation and wellness without the high. For those sensitive to THC, our CBD-rich products offer an alternative way to enjoy the benefits of cannabis. Customers searching for CBD in Alaska will find the best CBD products right here at The Tufted Puffin.

 

THC is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis, delivering the euphoric “high” that many users seek. At The Tufted Puffin, we offer a variety of THC-rich products for those looking to enhance their experience. From top-shelf marijuana products in Alaska to premium edibles and concentrates, we’ve got the perfect options for you.

 

Terpenes are the natural aromatic compounds found in cannabis, giving each strain its unique scent and flavor. From citrusy to earthy and everything in between, terpenes enhance the experience of cannabis and can even influence the effects. Think of the sweet smell of berries or the herbal notes of lavender—those are terpenes in action!

Concentrates

Wax

Shatter

 Concentrates are cannabis-derived extracts that contain concentrated amounts of the psychoactive compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and a multiplicity of other cannabinoids and terpenes 

 
 

The most well-known type of concentrate is wax. This is made by blasting plant material with a solvent using a closed-loop extraction system. The resulting slurry is heated at low temperatures and whipped vigorously to remove all residual solvent. Known for its soft, whipped texture and potent THC levels it gains airy peaks that are similar to whipped topping. 

 
 

A glass-like concentrate with a smooth, clean hit. Shatter is made by blasting plant material with a solvent using a closed-loop system. The product is collected on parchment paper and placed in a vacuum oven for solvent purging. After “burping” the slurry (this helps release as much solvent as possible) a few times the shatter starts to take shape and slowly spreads across the paper.

 
 

Oil

Dabbing Concentrates

Concentrate Pens

This fluid extraction is created with large amounts of pressure and carbon dioxide and is seen as an incredibly effective method to separate plant material to produce an oil. Extracted with CO2 for a pure and versatile product. Perfect for use in vapes or dabs.

 

CO2 extraction is gaining popularity in commercial extraction operations due to the fact that the equipment used is able to finely tune desired results and end products.

 

Dabbing is the method that’s enjoyed by the majority of concentrate lovers.   Low-temp dabbing is optimal for flavor and consumption of cannabinoid profiles, which is why this is one of the best ways to enjoy a dab. 

Dabbing is one of the most efficient ways to enjoy concentrates, offering intense flavors and fast-acting effects. For convenience, dab pens are a portable option that allows you to enjoy concentrates on the go. The Tufted Puffin stocks a wide range of dab pens and accessories for all your needs.

 

A dab pen is a vaporizer pen specifically designed to vape cannabis concentrates. A regular dab pen comes with atomizers, coils for heating the material and mouthpiece, which you inhale through to get the vapor. Dab pens come in all shapes and sizes, and The Tufted Puffin has got you covered. 

The Tufted Puffin stocks a wide range of dab pens and accessories for all your needs.
