Wonderbrett is a legendary West Coast cannabis lifestyle brand founded in 1997 by elite California legacy cultivators Brett Feldman and Cameron Damwijk. The company’s cannabis genetics library is among the most sought after in the world. Built upon decades of cultivation experience and devotion to growing the rarest genetics, Wonderbrett’s global acclaim and cultural relevance is intrinsic to music, art and style through its history cementing the famous OG Kush strain in hit songs during the late '90s. The founders and its team have a deep history of fostering the symbiotic relationship between cannabis as plant medicine, with creatives such as artists, designers and musicians.
Wonderbrett also built one of the largest cultivation facilities in North America. Headquartered in Long Beach, Calif., the operation features custom-designed irrigation systems that integrate advanced technology with time-honored, traditional cultivation techniques. This ensures craft-style, premium products at scale and the continuous development of elite genetics from Californian legacy cultivators.
In 2021, Wonderbrett will unveil its North American dispensary flagship on North La Brea Avenue in the iconic Fairfax District of Los Angeles. The store is a result of Wonderbrett founders receiving a social equity retail license in 2018 from L.A. County’s cannabis commission. There is no doubt that Feldman, Damwijk and the Wonderbrett organization is emblematic of what the cannabis industry needs more of, as the company raises the bar for plant medicine with its world-class marijuana strains, impactful campaigns, authentic collaborations, and representation of California’s legacy history.
OG Kush is a world-famous strain first propagated by Matt Berger in Florida. The strain was later popularized after Josh Del Rosso, aka JoshD, was able to perfect the growing conditions and introduce the variety into the Los Angeles market. JoshD Farms reports OG Kush users can expect long-lasting, heavy, yet versatile euphoria and skunky-citrus flavor and aroma. The company is now focused exclusively on developing OG Kush-derived strains and products.
JoshD Farms reports an average THC content of 20% from OG Kush, with some indoor grows testing as high as 26%. Myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene are the dominant terpenes of the strain. According to JoshD Farms, phenotypes and offspring that honor OG Kush’s signature effect and flavor profile include Kosher Kush, Triangle Kush, Skywalker OG, and Loompa’s Headband.
Berger said he obtained the originating strain, a ’90s favorite of Snoop Dogg and B-Real of Cypress Hill, in Florida where it was shared exclusively among local growers under the name Kryptonite, or Krippy. Berger, who was the first to cultivate Kush seeds from a random bag of flower, later shared the strain with Del Rosso in Los Angeles. Berger was also reportedly the first to coin the name Kush after a friend called the strain’s especially frosty colas “Kushberries,” with no intentional reference to the Hindu Kush mountains where other Kush strains originate.
OG Kush also came in 1st place for the Weedmaps March Madness competition in 2020.
