Alice Reis
Alice Reis is a cannabis educator, hashmaker, and co-owner of Wooksauce Winery, a legacy solventless brand with competition wins including a first-place Emerald Cup full melt entry, multiple podium finishes at Ego Clash, King of Z Hill, and beyond. Through Girls in Green, her long-running cannabis education platform, she has spent over a decade building bridges between traditional hash culture and a new generation of consumers navigating an increasingly craft-driven market. Her work sits at the intersection of hands-on extraction practice and accessible education: from hand-pressed traditional hash and centuries-old sieve techniques to modern full melt and rosin, she understands solventless culture not just technically, but as a living tradition worth honoring.
