Broadens Access to High-Quality, Sought-After Cannabis Strains for Medical Patients across the Sunshine State

MIAMI, Feb. 23, 2023 /CNW/ - Cansortium Inc. (CSE: TIUM.U) (OTCQX: CNTMF) ("Fluent" or the "Company"), a vertically-integrated, multi-state cannabis company operating under the Fluent™ brand, broadened its cannabis genetic portfolio by collaborating with Marty Calabrese, the founder of Origins TK Selects and creator of OG Kush and Triangle Kush. Origins TK Selects' genetics will be cultivated under the guidance of Fluent's premier legacy growers, Freedom Town Holdings. Fluent is initially rolling out Origins OG Kush and Origins Triangle Kush whole-flower to their 29 Florida dispensary locations with additional Origins TK Selects releases and genetics to be available to patients in the Sunshine State throughout the year.

"We are thrilled by our new relationship with Origins TK Selects and excited to bring both new and classic genetics to our customers across Florida," said Fluent CEO Robert Beasley. "Through our continued collaboration with Freedom Town Holdings and the addition of Origins TK Selects, we are broadening patient access to the highest-quality flower and medical cannabis products available."

Origins TK Selects Founder Marty Calabrese (aka TK) initially made huge waves in the cannabis scene in the early 1990s, developing genetics like OG Kush and Triangle Kush. The introduction of these varieties cemented Origins TK Selects' place in cannabis culture forever. After three decades, OG Kush and Triangle Kush have changed the cannabis landscape, become household names and continue to be two of the most sought-after varieties in the marketplace.

As part of the new collaboration, Fluent is also proud to announce TK's artwork to be featured at select Fluent dispensaries across Florida. Inspired by his love for surfing and cannabis, these art exhibitions enable visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Sunshine State and appreciate the cannabis plant through TK's artistic and creative lens. Prints of TK's paintings will be available for sale at select Fluent retail locations.

"While I created OG Kush and Triangle Kush seeds by mere chance, these genetics have spread further than I ever could have imagined and eventually made their way to Southern California where their popularity exploded," said Origins TK Selects Founder Marty Calabrese. "Fluent has been on my radar for a while and is consistently producing top-notch flower. I'm excited to introduce some of cannabis' dankest varieties to my home state, as well as showcase my art at Fluent dispensaries across Florida."

Origins OG Kush and Origins Triangle Kush will be available exclusively to medical cannabis patients at Fluent's Florida dispensaries as early as Saturday, February 25.
