GOT BLUNT?
It’s hard to believe, but it was 20 years ago today that the world got to see the greatest stoner comedy duo on the big screen since Cheech and Chong.
On December 21, 2001, How High was released, and ultimately became one of the greatest stoner flicks of all time. But what made this movie so iconic was the chemistry between Method Man and Redman: Arguably two of the most gifted rappers in the world, but as it turns out, one of the most charismatic as well.
Although Redman and Method Man had collaborated on other projects years before How High, it was this movie that took the duo from primarily the world of hip hop to the global cannabis community.
In fact, High Times rated Method Man and Redman #1 in their “Best Buds: 8 Celebrity Stoners” piece, writing …
Hip-hop houses more than a few celebrity stoner duos. Maybe that’s because rap lyrics think of weed as its own skill, mainly saved for gold medal partiers. Well if that’s true, Method Man and Redman look like the Dream Team of herb smoke. Their record stands undefeated too. The rappers flaunt the weed lifestyle in movies, books, and wherever herb is sold. For instance, one time they performed in Calgary and smoked a 24-carat blunt for the love of the game. True bromance never looked richer.
And How High consistently ranks in the top 10 best stoner movies of all time.
Ranker rated it #9.
Rolling Stone rated it #5.
And IMDB, clocked it in at #2, just below the legendary “Up in Smoke.”
There’s no denying that Method Man and Redman, along with screenwriter Dustin Lee Abraham and director Jesse Dylan, made stoner movie history with How High.
Of course, their love and support of the industry never stopped with that movie. Today, the two continue to elevate the conversation and the movement. Certainly this has been the case with Method Man’s TICAL, which exists solely to celebrate the culture.
From ensuring that social equity and social justice is woven into the fabric of the brand to bringing the highest quality products to the marketplace, Method Man continues to raise the bar.
In fact, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of How High, TICAL has partnered with the great El Blunto for a limited edition run of TICAL blunts.
If you’re unfamiliar with El Blunto, this is a company run by skilled experts that have borrowed age-old techniques from master cigar-rollers while employing modern technology to make the highest caliber blunts in the world.
Make no mistake: these aren’t your ordinary blunts.
These blunts have been packed with our indica-dominant C.R.E.A.M strain, which offers a relaxed, euphoric effect with scents of vanilla, berries and citrus hops.
We also packed the same strain in a 4-pack of individual .75 gram cigarillos. These El Bluntitos are perfect for those looking for more than one blunt option.
Combining our high-end flower with El Blunto’s historic cigar-making traditions,we have created what is arguably the most sophisticated blunt on the market. And we can’t wait for you to try it.
