Texas Original Opens New San Antonio Location, Launches Dark Chocolate Bites

Texas’ medical cannabis leader celebrates Valentine’s Day by announcing its first chocolate product and expanding patient access in San Antonio

Texas Original, Texas’ leading medical cannabis provider, today announced the opening of its newest permanent prescription pickup location in San Antonio. Located near the Alamo Heights neighborhood in northeast San Antonio, the new location will be open Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., critically expanding access to life-changing cannabis medicine for patients in Texas’ second-largest city.

Texas Original also announced the launch of its new Dark Chocolate Bites, the company’s first chocolate product and the state’s first medical cannabis chocolate product made with Rick Simpson Oil (RSO). Dark Chocolate Bites are a limited-time product and will be sold until current supplies run out. RSO is a full-spectrum extract that includes all the cannabinoids, flavonoids, terpenes, proteins and other potentially beneficial compounds of the cannabis plant and may amplify the therapeutic benefits of THC. Texas Original also recently introduced its RSO tincture, another first for the state. Texas Original’s full suite of medical cannabis products will be available for pickup at the company’s new location in San Antonio.

“We have been eager to open a full-time pickup location in San Antonio and expand our reach to the thousands of patients we serve in the greater San Antonio community,” said Nico Richardson, CEO of Texas Original. “Our new Dark Chocolate Bites, RSO tincture and other high-quality medical cannabis products are meticulously crafted and tested to ensure Texans receive the safest, most effective cannabis medicine in the state. We look forward to welcoming current and new patients into our San Antonio store and bringing relief to those suffering from chronic pain and other symptoms associated with PTSD, cancer and hundreds of other conditions medical cannabis can aid.”

Texas Original’s Dark Chocolate Bites are made with premium ingredients, including 70% cacao Belgian dark chocolate. The RSO in Texas Original’s Dark Chocolate Bites is extracted from the Blue Dream medical cannabis strain, which is grown locally at the company’s medical cannabis facility—the largest facility of its kind in Texas. Like all Texas Original products, Dark Chocolate Bites are regulated and rigorously tested to ensure quality, consistency and purity.

The northeast San Antonio location is Texas Original’s third medical cannabis pickup location in the San Antonio area, joining the company’s existing locations in west San Antonio and Universal City. Alongside the dispensary and headquarters in south Austin and company locations in north Austin and Waco, Texas Original maintains a dominant presence in Central Texas and the most extensive and accessible network of pickup locations in the state.

Medical cannabis can be prescribed in Texas to treat conditions including spasticity, neuropathy, PTSD, cancer, epilepsy and hundreds of neurodegenerative disorders. Texans can obtain medical cannabis prescriptions through online clinics or local physicians registered with the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas.
