California has a way of making sunsets feel like a full-on experience. Could be kicking back in Morro Bay, or catching the view in Shasta Lake, even simply winding down after a long day, golden hour always hits different. And let’s be real, pairing that glow with the right cannabis product? Absolute perfection.

Sunset sessions aren’t about going overboard. They’re all about balance: a gentle high that complements your vibe, helps you settle in, and makes the moment feel even more magical. Whether you’re into pre-rolls, vapes, or sipping on something infused, we’ve rounded up our favorite cannabis products from Perfect Union dispensaries in California to help you wind down right.

Our Favorite Sunset Strains to Try

Happie Peaches Papaya Pre-Roll

If sunsets had a flavor, this might be it. Happie’s Peaches Papaya delivers tropical fruit notes in a smooth-burning pre-roll, ideal for outdoor hangs and warm breezes. It’s got a relaxed, easygoing vibe that doesn’t overwhelm - perfect for golden hour glow.

Glass House Farms 7g Farm Pack

This farm pack brings serious variety to your sesh. Whether you're smoking solo or passing it around, Glass House offers flavorful greenhouse flower at a great value. Try a light hybrid or calming indica from the pack as the sun dips behind the hills.

Ursa Live Resin Cartridge – Banana Burger

Prefer to vape your vibes? Ursa’s Banana Burger live resin cart offers flavor and smoothness with a nice kick. It’s got that rich, dessert-y taste with a balanced body-mind experience. Ideal for reflecting on the day with a stunning view.

Mr. Zips Peach Crescendo Infused Pre-Roll

Infused and flavorful, Mr. Zips’ Peach Crescendo is great for a more elevated sunset session. This sativa-leaning pre-roll hits smooth and adds a little spark of creativity to your evening without stealing the spotlight.

5G Pop THC Beverage

Don’t want to smoke? No problem. The 5G Pop is a refreshing THC beverage that fits perfectly into your golden hour chill routine. Crack one open, pour over ice, and enjoy a bubbly companion to your sunset playlist.

Pair Your Strain With the Right Spot

Half the fun of a sunset sesh is the setting. Here are a few ideas for where to catch those good vibes:

  • Backyard or patio: Keep it simple with a comfy chair, your favorite tunes, and some moody string lights.
  • Home Studio or Sunroof: Got a space with natural light and a chill vibe? A sunroom or creative nook can be the perfect spot to vibe out with a vape, journal, or mellow playlist.
  • Cannabis-Friendly Lounge or Private Venue
    Some private establishments or lounges offer cannabis-friendly indoor spaces with big windows or rooftop access, perfect for catching the sunset in style. (Always check local laws and lounge policies!)

Choosing a Sunset Strain: What to Look For

Sunset strains live in the in-between zone; balanced but not boring. Look for:

  • Hybrids with a mellow body feel and a touch of euphoria
  • Indicas that don’t couch-lock, but offer full-body chill
  • Terpenes like myrcene, caryophyllene, or limonene for relaxing aromas
  • Medium THC levels if you want to stay present but relaxed

If you're not sure what to pick, ask any of our budtenders. Our team’s always happy to help you match your mood to the right strain.

Sunset Sesh Tips

Want to level up your golden hour sesh? Here’s how: Start by prepping before the sun dips. If you’re lighting a pre-roll, sipping a cannabis beverage, or reaching for your favorite vape or glass piece, having everything ready sets the tone. Next, cue up the perfect playlist. Do you feel like listening to mellow and moody or light and dreamy? Music that matches your vibe (and your high) makes the moment feel even more intentional. Don’t forget to snack smart. Go for light bites like fruit, nuts, or something you won’t regret halfway through your high. And finally, stay cozy. A hoodie, blanket, or your favorite soft spot to chill can turn a good sesh into an unforgettable one.
