About
An Evolving, Regenerative Perspective
We distinguish ourselves through an ingredient-driven approach, the exclusive use of flower rosin, and our collaborations with celebrated chefs and farmers.
Rose takes responsibility for every step of production. Instead of masking the plant’s flavor, we find beauty in it, exploring alluring ways to incorporate seasonal fruit that’s sourced from some of California’s most respected farmers into each recipe.

Our philosophy is rooted in the culinary tradition of seasonality and integrity of each ingredient. It’s a thread that runs through all the things we do as a company.
We believe quality in is quality out. Our edibles are infused with single-strain whole flower rosin to preserve the beneficial properties of the plant providing a dynamic, integrative experience.

A CULTURE OF EXPERIENCE
We approach fruit sourcing the way a restaurant kitchen does — by talking with farmers to get inspired by their unique seasonal produce varieties.
These living ingredients are brought back to our kitchen where we begin a co-creation with fruit and hemp flower.
We process all of our produce in-house in our San Francisco facility, in the hands and care of our chefs.
We are creating a culture of experience surrounding Delights, which are more than just products—they’re stories of the people and places and ingredients coming together to make them. Preserving fruits and vegetables into a Delight leaves us with an ephemeral snapshot of local produce at its richest flavor long past the close of the season.

WHY FLOWER ROSIN
Rosin is unprocessed and pure, full-spectrum cannabinoid extract mechanically pressed from the whole flower.
A delicate process that’s done by hand in-house on a hydraulic press using below-volatilization heat and pressure to preserve the cannabinoids, terpenes, and other beneficial chemical compounds natural to the plant.
We favor unprocessed, unrefined flower that is organically grown for the same reason we source the highest quality produce - for the nuances in flavor and the medicinal benefits of using whole foods and plants.

Hand pressed rosin extraction from whole flower.
Rose is the first edible company in the recreational market to exclusively use flower rosin, a solventless extract that conveys the purest expression of the source plant. This results in clearer and stronger effects, enhanced therapeutic properties, and a true representation of the flower’s flavor.
CLOSING THE LOOP
Rose’s regenerative farm in California’s Sierra Foothills allows us to become better stewards of the planet while increasing the scope of our ingredients.

Long considered unusable, this terrain already cultivates the majority of produce and herbs for all Rose releases.
Rose first harvest, Fall ’21. 265 plants across 21 strains from Biovortex and Purple City, grown from seed and clone.
Restoring the soil here to a lushness that generates more than it consumes, Rose believes, is a small but essential step towards becoming better stewards of our planet.
There’s another reason Rose is embarking on this journey: the fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers grown in Penn Valley will expand the team’s toolkit of flavors. Week to week, season by season, the farm will be a constant source of inspiration.
