budtender

Dispensary sales associate

A budtender is someone who works at a cannabis dispensary, helping customers select marijuana products.

The term combines "bud," slang for marijuana flower, with "bartender," reflecting the similar role of guiding customers through product options and making recommendations.

Budtenders typically need knowledge of different cannabis strains, consumption methods, and local regulations.

The budtender suggested a lower-THC strain for beginners.
