Montana Cannabis Brand Landscape


When people talk about the most popular weed brands in Montana, a few names always pop up. Each carved out its niche, some with massive edible lines, others with small-batch flower or solventless concentrates. Here’s the lay of the land:


  • Groove Solventless: Specializes in live rosin, infused pre-rolls, and cartridges. Marketed as a “whole plant experience” that keeps things pure.
  • High Road Edibles: Montana-based edible maker focused on consistency, creative flavors, and solventless options. Their gummies are a go-to for many locals.
  • Wana Brands: A national gummy powerhouse with a Montana presence. Precise dosing and familiar branding make them popular, though less “local” than homegrown companies.
  • Salute Beverages: A cannabis soda brand, positioned as an alternative to beer at BBQs and social events, catching on especially with younger consumers.


Each of these brands earns attention for different reasons: scale, craft, consistency, or creativity. But here’s the thing, in Montana, popularity isn’t just about what’s on the shelf. It’s about trust.


And that’s where the real story begins: what Montanans actually value when choosing a cannabis brand.

Budtender Walk-Through: How to Choose the Right Montana Brand

Picking a cannabis brand in Montana isn’t like grabbing a soda off the shelf. The right choice depends on what you value most. Here’s a step-by-step guide our budtenders often walk customers through:


Step 1: Decide What Matters Most


Ask yourself: Do I care most about flavor, consistency, price, or supporting local growers? If the answer is “all of the above,” you’ll know where to look.


Step 2: Check for Local Roots


Not every Montana brand is truly Montana-owned. If keeping your dollars in-state matters, ask where the product was grown and who runs the company.


Step 3: Look Beyond THC %


Montana’s most popular brands aren’t just chasing numbers. Terpene profiles and cannabinoid balance are what drive real effects. A 20% THC flower with rich terpenes can feel far more satisfying than a bland 30% strain.


Step 4: Match Brand to Occasion


  • Outdoor adventures: Try a brand known for energetic sativas.
  • Evening relaxation: Look for indica-heavy classics.
  • Social settings: Consider edibles or infused pre-rolls.
  • Medical relief: CBD-rich options are your best bet.


Step 5: Trust Your Budtender


Montana’s cannabis scene is still young, and products evolve quickly. The easiest way to avoid guesswork is to lean on your budtender; they’ve tried the products, know the brands, and can help steer you toward the right fit.
