Shango is intentionally ambitious. "Shango is the new name for cannabis in America," the company's website says. Inside, the dispensary is polished, with iPads packed with product info and a gallery of ganja, with strains mounted inside clear cylinders on the wall to allow for 360-degree perusal of the nugs. In the center of the room you find a counter where patients can get a whiff. Customers buy premeasured glass jars—there's no weighing or repackaging, so the buds stay fresh, shake stays to a minimum and the cost is predictable. Shango's bud is high quality—try Chillberry—and the location is an easy stop for tourists.
