The former Red Sox slugger’s new business is a line of cannabis products coming soon to Massachusetts dispensaries.
Fresh off of his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, David Ortiz is launching a new venture: Papi Cannabis, a line of cannabis products which will be available at some Massachusetts dispensaries beginning this month.
Papi Cannabis is created in partnership with Rev Brands, a cannabis manufacturer and wholesaler in Massachusetts. Papi Cannabis products will be available at three Revolutionary Clinics, located in Cambridge and Somerville, as well as leading recreational dispensaries in the Bay State.
Ortiz said in a press release that he started using the drug as a way of managing physical pain from years of playing baseball and to help balance the stress of his schedule. After he began using cannabis, Ortiz said he became more “present” in the way that he connected with his family.
“Once I embraced the flow of the flower everything changed,” Ortiz said in the release. “Cannabis has helped me relax, sleep better, manage stress and heal physically after a lifetime of playing ball, and I look forward to sharing Papi Cannabis and my personal journey to help people understand its benefits.” [Read More @ Boston.com]
