Where to find I-Tal
Our story
I-Tal Cannabis traces its roots to the spiritual traditions of Jamaica, where founder Marcus Bennett was raised in a Rastafarian community that honored the sacred relationship between humans and plants. The brand was born in 2017 when Bennett, after years of cultivating for personal and community use, decided to bring these time-honored growing methods to the regulated cannabis market.The name "I-Tal" draws from the Rastafarian concept of "ital" (vital) living—a philosophy centered on enhancing life energy through natural, unprocessed substances. What began as a small-batch operation in California quickly gained recognition for its exceptional quality and commitment to sustainability.By 2020, I-Tal had expanded to three additional states while maintaining its artisanal approach. In 2022, the brand launched its "Roots Initiative," returning a portion of profits to support small-scale farmers in Jamaica and community development programs in areas disproportionately affected by cannabis prohibition. Today, I-Tal stands as a bridge between traditional cannabis wisdom and modern conscious consumption.
