If you’re asking “What Pot Do You Properly Pair With Rib Eye?,” you’re probably in Colorado and you need a sommelier.* Now, one of America’s first certified cannabis sommeliers is available, for a price. Cultivating Spirits in is a catering company pairing every dish with not only its own wine, but also a meticulously chosen “small-batch” weed strain.

Bloomberg says “puff, eat, drink, in that order,” is the protocol. An example would serve a course of rib eye with a 2013 Malbec and pipeful of Gorilla Glue. Dessert could be white-chocolate crème brûlée, a 2012 petite syrah, and Blue Dream.

Restaurants charge high prices for dinner with paired wine and introducing weed to the mix only increases the price. The minimum cost of a three-course pairing catered dinner is $1,250, which provides enough of everything to entertain a group of 10.

A full-service wedding package is close to $10,000, with additional a la carte services like managing the "bud bar" and a pre-wedding cannabis-tasting available.

*Sommelier or wine steward, is a trained and knowledgeable wine professional, normally working in fine restaurants, who specializes in all aspects of wine service as well as wine and food pairing. The role is much more specialized and informed than that of a wine waiter and is strategically on a par with that of the executive chef or chef de cuisine.
