Speaking to the mainstream acceptance of cannabis as a recreational hobby rather than a drug, the cannabis sommelier is likely to sound like a pretty appealing job option.

Having started her career in California's Humboldt County, West now offers advice to a variety of customers in the recreational and medicinal Denver dispensary.
