Denver Relief's ‘BIO-DIESEL’ strain wins Colorado Medical Marijuana Harvest Cup

(Denver, CO 12/4/09) — Bio-Diesel, a medical marijuana strain cultivated by Denver Relief, a full-service medical marijuana dispensary, was awarded the top prize at the Second Annual Colorado Medical Marijuana Harvest Cup, an event held each year to raise money for non-profit organizations dedicated to the cause of medical marijuana support.

“We’re so honored by this recognition,” said Adam Johnson, co-owner of Denver
Relief, and proud parent of the Bio-Diesel strain. “Our medicine was judged on
medical effect, appearance, taste, aroma, potency and smoothness. The strain
finished first in five out of six categories, second place in the sixth category,
and won the overall award in a landslide. Our hard work has paid off.”

Bio-Diesel is Denver Relief’s proprietary, engineered strain, and is widely
considered “The All-Encompassing Medicine.” The strain is extremely potent and
pungent, with a noticeable essence of whole-bean coffee.

“Because the strain is so potent, patients can consume less of it to ease chronic
pain and other ailments,” said Ean Seeb, who, along with Johnson and Kayvan S.T.
Khalatbari, is a caregiver and co-owner of Denver Relief. “That’s a true benefit to
our client base.”

“The Harvest Cup is a private fundraiser thrown for non-profit organizations in the
state,” said Gregory Stinson, president of Front Range NORML and a co-founder of the
competition. “The event itself is held to build community and to raise funds to
support medical marijuana in the state.”

This is the second year of the Colorado Medical Marijuana Harvest Cup. More than 250
people were in attendance at the event, held at the Mishawaka Amphitheater, outside
of Fort Collins, on Nov. 21. Bio-Diesel was among 20 strains in contention for
recognition, with 28 judges assessing entries over a two-week period. Funds raised
by the event went to this year’s beneficiary, Sensible Colorado, a non-profit
organization dedicated to “an effective drug policy.”

“We had judges from all over the state who tried the medicine and graded the
medicine,” added Stinson. “After a win like this, everybody wants to know your
name.”
