California Cannabis Awards

Why These Awards Matter

Unlike competitions that rely solely on appearance or consumer judging, many California Cannabis Awards categories recognize measurable characteristics that define premium cannabis.

Our medals highlight:

  • Rich, naturally occurring terpene profiles
  • Exceptional cannabinoid expression
  • Consistent cultivation practices
  • Premium-quality flower and wellness products

For us, these awards validate the care that goes into every harvest—from selecting genetics to greenhouse cultivation, slow drying, curing, and hand trimming.

Spotlight on Our Winners

Sour Power #69

Our citrus-forward sativa continues to impress with its bold aroma, vibrant flavor, and outstanding terpene profile. Winning two Gold medals and one Silver medal demonstrates the exceptional quality and consistency of this standout cultivar.

Known for its energizing effects and bright notes of sour lemon, earthy funk, and gas, Sour Power #69 has quickly become one of Autumn Brands’ most celebrated strains.

Sour Power

Purple Carbonite

Purple Carbonite continues to prove why it’s one of our flagship indicas. Earning three Bronze medals across cannabinoid and terpene categories showcases the complexity and balance that have made it a customer favorite.

With deep purple hues, rich flavor, and relaxing effects, Purple Carbonite consistently delivers the premium experience our customers expect.

Nourishing Muscle & Joint Salve

Cannabis wellness extends beyond flower, and we’re proud that our Nourishing Muscle & Joint Salve earned a Silver Medal in the Wellness Topicals category.

Made with thoughtfully selected ingredients and premium cannabis extracts, our salve is designed to provide targeted relief while reflecting the same commitment to quality found throughout the Autumn Brands product lineup.

Family-Grown. Pesticide-Free. Award-Winning.

Every Autumn Brands product begins with a simple philosophy: grow cannabis the right way.

Our farm is proud to be:

  • Family-owned and operated
  • Pesticide-free
  • Greenhouse-grown under natural California sunlight
  • Carefully hand-trimmed
  • Slowly dried and cured for maximum flavor and terpene preservation

These seven awards are a testament to the passion and dedication of our cultivation, production, and sales teams who work tirelessly to produce cannabis we’re proud to share.
