— June 14, 2017 — Lifestyle
Based in Portland, Oregon, Serra is a stylish dispensary boasting sharp blue and white branding that is both eye-catching and likely to leave a lasting impression on customers. With three locations currently spread out across the city of Portland, the Serra brand also operates an online shop that sells a variety of high-end cannabis accessories, as well as a branded line of merchandise. In addition to its in-store flower selection, Serra also carries edibles, pre-rolls, concentrates, topicals and vapeables.

The entire Serra shopping experience is designed with a specific minimalist sophistication, with rich details like origami-wrapped chopsticks for measuring the product, lending the place a gallery-like atmosphere that is a far cry from the stoner stereotype one might expect.
