Sauce Essentials is an innovative, multi-licensed extract company operating in eight different states including Oregon. While Sauce services a wide range of products from infused pre-rolls to edible candies, the focus for our Edibles issue is on its affectionately named Sauce Bars.
Sauce Bars are disposable (and recyclable) Cannabis vape cartridges filled with a mixture of both Cannabis extracts and non-Cannabis flavor additives. Each strain has a different formulation of cannabinoids and terpenes explicitly designed to deliver a potent, palate-painting flavor experience. The technology itself is intuitive; the device doesn’t need to be turned on and buttons don’t need to be pressed. Simple draws on the pod produce large, hazy clouds of vapor. A small light on the bottom of the apparatus flashes on and off to indicate when it’s in use, and every vaporizer has a USB-C charge port if the device runs low on battery before it’s fully consumed.
Strawberry Cough
The Strawberry Cough Sauce Bar possesses what is probably the most pungent profile in the line-up — the pod practically radiates sweet strawberry smells. The flavor kindles memories of syrupy strawberry sauce poured over the top of a freshly baked shortcake. Known for inducing a buzzy, cerebral head high, this strain is sure to keep sativa lovers satisfied.
75.5% THC and 82.9% total cannabinoids
White Widow
The White Widow Sauce Bar is subtle but powerful, featuring a sweetened, almost sugary pine flavoring superimposed over a background of mixed citrus. Categorized as a hybrid, the live resin-based strain invokes an invigorating feeling of euphoria paired with downright sublime stoniness.
84.1% THC and 85.9% total cannabinoids
Purple Haze
The Purple Haze Sauce Bar is surprisingly fruity, slapping the senses with magnitudes of purple and white grapes. The expression has an almost nostalgic artificial grape flavoring, reminiscent of grape Swisher Sweets and Welch’s grape juice. The sativa-like effect is floaty and stimulating, generating an intoxicatingly delightful feeling.
80.8% THC and 86.7% total cannabinoids
Blue Dream
The Blue Dream Sauce Bar has a deep, tart berry profile that lingers over the palate on each hit. Consisting of blueberry and soft spice, the taste profile is almost akin to that of a cobbler or some kind of fruit pie. Despite its status as a hybrid, the effect on the Blue Dream can be increasingly heavy in higher doses, leaving the consumer feeling relatively sedated.
