Flower and edibles are great, but sometimes you need something with a little bit more punch to it. That’s where concentrates come into play. We took to our Leafly Instagram page and asked Leafly users for their go-to brands in the concentrates game. After receiving hundreds of answers, these were the brands that came up repeatedly.

Viola Extracts (@violalabs)
Available in: Colorado, Oregon, California, and Michigan (with plans to expand into Arizona and Nevada in 2019)
Viola Extracts is a company founded by NBA-veteran-turned-cannabis-entrepreneur Al Harrington. Named after his grandmother, the story of Viola is this: Al had been treating his multiple basketball-related injuries with CBD oils and topicals. He recommended CBD-based products to his grandma for her multiple I’ve-lived-a-very-long-time-related ailments instead of the ineffective medication she’d been prescribed by her doctors. Suddenly, after years of being unable, Viola could see the words on her Bible (there’s a whole documentary about it).
Viola produces a number of products including premium flower, vapes, extracts, live resin, and shatter.

Dirty Arm Farm seems to be another crowd favorite.

Heylo Cannabis is a company that specializes in crafting high-terpene extracts as well as CBD and rare-cannabinoid strains. They pride themselves on only using full-bud cannabis to create their products—never trim or sugar leaf—as well as their terpene preservation methods that enhance the taste and experience for their customers.
The_DiamondBaron (@the_diamondbaron)
Available in: California
It’s pretty tough to find information on The Diamond Baron brand of concentrates as they have no information listed on their Instagram—or anywhere else, really. However, our Leafly users seem to love them. All I know is that the Diamond Baron is stationed in Los Angeles, California, and they do collaborations with companies based there.
