Where to find Cherry
Our story
Cherry was born from the Colorado cannabis dream when Anthony Scotti, a New York entrepreneur with a background in health and fitness, moved to Colorado to start a cannabis company. After experiencing the benefits of cannabis firsthand during his training and recovery routines, Anthony connected with master geneticist Jason MacLean, now Cherry's Lead Horticulturist, and together they planted the seeds for what would become one of Colorado's most respected cultivation brands.The company has evolved significantly since its early days as a wholesale provider, asserting itself on a branding level in 2020 when they brought in East Coast rapper N.O.R.E. to name one of their strains, Super Thug. This marked a turning point as Cherry transitioned from being primarily behind-the-scenes growers to a recognized brand with loyal followings. In 2021, Cherry won Westword's Best Wholesale Cultivation award, cementing their reputation for excellence. The brand has grown from Anthony starting as a hands-on grower to becoming a key supplier for premium brands like Willie's Reserve while building their own celebrity partnerships and brand recognition in Colorado's competitive market.
