Khalifa Kush

Overview

Khalifa Kush, famously associated with the renowned rapper Wiz Khalifa, is a unique hybrid cannabis strain tailored over a decade to meet the artist's specific requirements. Having secured a broad audience appreciation after its launch in California, it represents a flagship product in the expansive portfolio of Cresco Labs, the largest wholesaler of branded cannabis in the U.S. As part of a strategic partnership, it extends its reach to Massachusetts, with an anticipation of a similar response from its branding collaboration with Trulieve Cannabis Corp., a top-performing cannabis company.

Market Insights Snapshot

Khalifa Kush Historical Sales by Category

The performance of Khalifa Kush across various states reveals interesting trends in the cannabis market. In Illinois, Khalifa Kush's presence in the Flower category saw a significant shift from being outside the top 30 in May to reaching the 36th position by July, although it slipped slightly to 39th in August. This movement indicates a growing acceptance and demand for their Flower products in the state. In the Pre-Roll category, the brand showed a stronger performance, climbing to the 21st position in July from not being in the top 30 in May, which suggests a notable increase in consumer interest. Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, Khalifa Kush's Vapor Pens category demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory, moving from the 70th position in May to the 50th by August, reflecting a strengthening foothold in this segment.

In Maryland, Khalifa Kush maintained a stable presence in the Flower category, hovering around the 32nd position for several months, although a slight dip to 34th in August might warrant attention. The Pre-Roll category in Maryland, however, showed a positive trend, advancing from 31st in May to 24th in August, highlighting increasing popularity. In Nevada, the brand's performance in Concentrates fluctuated, with rankings available only for May and July, where it held the 13th and 12th positions, respectively. This inconsistency might suggest volatility or a niche market presence. Meanwhile, in Ohio and Washington, Khalifa Kush's entry into the Flower category in August at the 50th and 42nd positions, respectively, indicates a late but potentially promising start.
