U.S. legalization generates a new Mexican premium weed market

Well-off stoners are ushering in a new marijuana market in Mexico 

by Luis Chaparro

El M is sitting on a bench in Parque España, a pleasant urban park that divides the two economically comfortable Mexico City neighborhoods of Condesa and Roma.  A slim young man with dark skin, bulging eyes and a backpack over his shoulders, El M won't reveal his real name.

He’s a marijuana dealer, but not just any marijuana dealer. He sells Kush, Silver Haze, Gypsy Widow. The best weed. And only the best.

M’s clients will get WhatsApp messages from him, informing them of what merchandise is currently available. Then they’ll consult leafly.com, a site that describes and grades the various types of marijuana on the market — their potency, effects, aromas and flavors.

If they like what they see, they’ll pay up to 3,000 for an “ounce.” That comes to about $180 dollars for what in the marijuana world usually amounts to 25 grams, not 28.

Compare that to the 200 pesos that everyday pot buyers might pay for everyday Mexican pot in the same amount.

El M says he doesn’t know where his product comes from. But law enforcement agencies, as well as expert analysts, think they do. They’re placing the origin of this premium weed in the crops of U.S. legal-marijuana states, such as Colorado.

Reverse trafficking, from Denver to Mexico (reverse flow)


Last July, a Mexican customs agent at the Ciudad Juárez checkpoint found more than five kilos of marijuana in the luggage rack of a Honda Accord coming in from Texas.


The two U.S. citizens in the car — Jose Antonio Ruiz del Hoyo and Javier Antonio Quiñonez — were taken in for questioning, where it was learned that they were taking the pot from Denver, Col., where marijuana growing is legal,to Mexico City, where the demand for top quality marijuana has been growing rapidly.

Oscar Hagelsieb, director of the West Texas region of the U.S. Homeland Security Department, says his office has detected a growing trend in recent years in “counterflow” — that is, marijuana moving from north to south. But it’s a specific kind of counterflow.

“What we’ve been able to find thanks to our investigations is that it’s not a level of traffic that’s going to inundate Mexico,” Hagelsieb says. “This marijuana is not for everybody. It’s a status thing. It’s for rich kids.”

There aren’t any current statistics on how much marijuana has been decommissioned as it moved from the United States to Mexico. But Hagelsieb says the trend could increase over the new few years. He won’t estimate a figure, but he does say it will be significant enough that his agency will have to invest funds in tracking the phenomenon.

Anybody who’s aware of how porous the Mexico-U.S. border is for any kind of merchandise moving from north to south will understand that the moderate amounts of high-grade cannabis in question will make it into Mexico with almost no difficulty whatsoever.

Bryce Pardo, an independent researcher and consultant on drug policy in the Americas, who has written extensively on the topic, warns that organized crime — that is, Mexico’s narcos — will no doubt be looking to move in to the growing reverse flow marijuana market in the next few years.
“Changes in production techniques could become more and more common if the traffickers can adapt to the new market,” Pardo says. “Time will tell if this happens or not.”

But the north-to-south marijuana flow may only be a part of the explanation for this new phenomenon. Cannabis cultivation has been discovered in Mexico that uses clones or seeds from the United States and that yields product equal in quality and potency as that grown legally in greenhouses in several U.S. states.

Just last July, Mexican authorities found a 20,000-square-foot greenhouse in the state of Jalisco, teeming with marijuana plants. The plants were genetically modified, according to the National Security Commission, Mexico’s top federal law enforcement agency.

Homegrown

Pardo thinks there are two reasons for the noticeable improvement in the quality of marijuana in Mexico. One if the effort that the organized drug traffickers are making to compete with U.S. cannabis. The other is the change in habits on the part of Mexican consumers. They want more refined products.

Roma and Condesa fertile ground for a pot dealer

Mexico City’s Cuauhtémoc borough, in which Condesa and Roma are located, accounts for 8.7 percent of the capital’s 75,000 marijuana consumers, according to the National Anti-Addiction Commission. That’s 6,500 people.

So places like Roma and Condesa — with a relatively well-off population that tends toward the hip side —  is rife with potential customers. Not only are there more possible customers, but they’re willing to spend more for the good stuff.

Dan Vinkovetsky, editor of High Times, the longtime U.S. cannabis magazine, explains why: “American cannabis can be 10 percent and even 20 percent THC, the active ingredient, while the pressed Mexican plant has barely 5 percent.”

So M sells the high-quality U.S. pot that came into the country at some point via reverse flow, while Arturo grows a few plants from seed on his little apartment balcony. Both are located in Roma/Condesa and both are working on the margins of what could become a legal market in coming years.

  5. There will, for the foreseeable future, be an immense market for any drugs that can be brought into the United States. Among the international financial elite, there will also exist a market for "premium " labelled drugs. Drugs of all sorts, unfortunately, seem to be the bane of both the financially blessed and the financially unfortunate in all countries. It is a curse that we will have to live with until the drug trade is no longer viable and profitable for the ruling politicians.

This could give the public purse plenty of money for infrastructure projects and public works that serve the Mexican people and future generations. Time has proven that the old ways of hating your way through problems is a pointless, dead end street to walk down. We have a very negative situation caused by the drug trade, all humankind is affected. It behooves all of us to turn this poison into medicine, to create positive value that can bring benefits to people's lives from the negative influences illegal drugs command.

  7. Do any of you know that if the U.S is starting to have a higher demand for high grade marijuana that it could hurt the cartels income for their Mexican marijuana product such as regular brick weed or for instance the marijuana that is grown in Sinaloa and trafficked across the border, because they say one of El Chapo biggest moneymakers is the heroine and the weed that is grown and i was just wondering if that puts a dent in his income as far as his marijuana crops go since the US citizens, well at least most US citizens, prefer to smoke hydro and high quality weed, maybe they are not interested in buying Mexican weed anymore but yet they still say that one of the biggest money makers for Mexican cartels is marijuana. You would think that the Mexican cartels are starting to lose money on the marijuana due to the fact that weed has become legal in the United States. Anyone have a opinion?

Doctoring up pot is a no brainer for these meltdowns, because about 90% of the major grow ops across Canada belong to the Hells. The high from Canadian chemical kush lasts around an hour, destroys short term memory, is a big hit in high schools and on university campuses, and 100% useless as medical marijuana for chronic pain management.

    7. (Sorry, this is kind of long!) It's practically 10 years since the discovery of slain Bandidos on a Canadian farm outside London. In April 2006, eight members from Toronto Bandidos motorcycle gang got themselves shot execution style due to an internal dispute with Canada's Winnipeg and American branches. A jury convicted six men of first-degree murder in 2009--five appealed, arguing they were forced into becoming killers. One biker said he feared he would “end up in a pile of dead bodies” if he didn’t take part in the killings. This past April, (2015), the  appellate judge ruled the defence of duress as legally unavailable. "In a nutshell, it is not open to anyone to say to an innocent victim: ‘You will die so that I can live’.” 

      London's Motards do like a  Saturday parade of a summer's eve as the Canadian sun sinks in the sky circa 10 o'clock.  It's nothing like a Key West sunset. On these weird, noisy Canadian occasions long lines of Harley-Davidson motorcycles  zoom London's top cop plaza, past the tweakers banging biker meth across the street in Needle Park, where no one dares care. There's no force capable of startling Londoners from their contentments along the scenic banks of the Thames in the Ontario heart lands. Not even the 300  to 340 full patched Canadian Hells Angels that rolled into town this past Labor Day undercover of dark.

      CSIS biker intelligence unit has it there are 340 full patched Hells Angels in all Canada. Fewer than 20 of the full patched hierarchy actually reside in the Ontarian province.

      London cops closed off streets named after a Lord Dundas and Queen Victoria's daughter, Princess Adelaide, on the occasion of the Monday night cemetery run. The deceased was unavoidably detained at the morgue for an autopsy. Mourners settled for a dedicated Facebook page, a riderless hearse and a flatbed truck towing a motorcycle -- suitably draped in black tarp.  

      The funeral procession's pecking order presented in three distinct biker convoys separated by motorcycle police escorts layered in between. Uniformed cops in London Police cruisers marshaled the parade and brought up the rear with a row of black SUVs. 2 Fire trucks and a lone EMS ambulance followed behind the SUVs.  

      Shades of the Antioquian House of Escobar funeral practices come to mind.

      Labor Day Sunday at 5:00 AM, a GateKeeper enforcer was killed from a headshot fired at a biker social club in London, Canada. A 15 year-old black kid whom it's alleged pulled the trigger is arrested in less than 10 days. Five individuals arrested at the murder scene charged with drug possession were out on bail in time for midmorning brunch.

      Biker gangs' turf is every place in Canada there's a drug demand. The Hells are a clever executive body that shields itself with six degrees of separation from their criminal enterprises by engaging other, smaller clubs to do their dirty work. The GateKeepers is fully integrated with club chapters set up in Ontario and Nova Scotia at the discretion of the Hells Angels-- whose Canadian membership is fully segregated. 

      It's only a couple hours' drive  from London to Windsor and Detroit, Michigan, Toronto and 4 of the 5 Great Lakes--Huron, Erie, Ontario and Michigan-- that access the St. Lawrence's shipping lanes to Chicago and the Atlantic ocean. Think: Chemical Precursors.

      Bandidos may run a lot of drugs and weapons in Europe, but in the land of the maple leaf, they're lucky they're allowed a seat at the table.

      It is interesting that the Hells Angels Club House is right next to the city's police headquarters, yeah? Cheers :-)

    9. ¡¡ Taco Bowman se frito!! All bikers qualify as sleaze buckets. Hells Angels are racist, hate women and feed your kids meth. What's cool about them? Nothing, in case you're wondering. The Swedes, the Finns, the Germans, the Norwegians and the Danes have Bandidos chapters that are a big deal for transporting drugs across Europe and are HUGE in the weapons trade with the Russian Brotherhood Federation. Canadian bikers are mommas boys who can't even be compared to the Euro mc presence, or the deadly chaos these guys bring to bear. European cops leave them alone out of fear. In Canada, the police and the Hells are best buddies who share the proceeds of organised crime.

If grifa is not addictive why is it that it causes "anxiety" that only another joint can massage, awakens murdering instincts because one or two grams tempt someone to steal them from the customers AND TEMPTS the customer to get his money's worth out of your guts with a $5.00 machete? Sir? Just because you turn into an altar boy, it is not the same story for everybody...

    9. There are some good mariguanos, they get really inspired and do great things, they are very human and compassionate, except the majority are not like that, the great majority make worthless the good ones, they need to practice their craft behind some prison walls...

    10. @11:36 You don't make any sense at all sir. Anxiety is a chemical imbalance that can be brought on by a number of things and not necessarily by marijuana. Anyone with murderous thoughts needs mental help immediately. Those kind of thoughts are not brought on by THC. Weed isnt crack. Get it right.

  13. My boy has been selling and shipping plenty of enails down in southern Mex so They must be extracting concentrates also. My friends in Mich. always have told me that they get purple a few times during the year but I have never seen it the times I been there. Did have the nicest Sativa I ever came across though grown from my friends grampa.

    1. The purple is out of Quebec...known as "Blur." (Say it with a French accent, it almost sounds like "blue"). Super hard to get any because it's field grown and specific to certain areas in the province, where it's cold most of the year, so it's a very short growing season.

  14. There is no such thing as genetically engineered cannabis grown for the consumer market.

    The Mexican feds were full of shit when they said the greenhouse raid in Jalisco involved GMO pot. It was nothing but a scare tactic to frighten uneducated people, or else they honestly don't know the difference between genetic hybridization and genetic engineering.

    1. Hybrids are technically genetically engineered. You take the good traits or "genes" from 2 different plants to create a new species.

  18. The purple colors don't necessarily mean anything. You can create that color by having temperature fluctuations of at least 15 degrees. The only thing that matters are the genetics of the plant. All these colors and flavors do not make the thc levels higher. It's all in the breeding and cultivation and proper drying and curing that makes all the difference. I'm not a doctor,but I play one on Tv....

  19. I'm from the tex mex border and let me tell you , these taumalipans and nuevo leons are starting to pick on the scene, they dance when they hear of girl scout cookies, Blacksnow, Snowman, Sherbet, Sour Og, Sour Diesel, GDP and etc... Growing wise nah I think that's all the californians trait, I've personally tried the colorado stuff(Recreational) and it was totally lacking potency, looks, AND FLAVOR ,AS to the the medical cali that we so luckily find out here.. Btw Co2 live resin is really potent your looking at 40-90%.. there's a huge diff from butane and Co2 extraction tho I personally stay away from butane extraction.. So yes people the gente be smoking loud lol.. who knows how much further south it goes but weed in my mind is for the people so let us be:*)

  24. Yeah. Same old shit. It's NEVER Mexico's fault. Hold everyone else to a standard for blame. Never take responsibility for ANYTHING ever. Everything originates with the source...yourself. mexico creates the drugs...the origins. So STOP blaming eveyone else. Start with your own shit and clean yourself up before you point the finger.

    2. 3:46PM, Let's try a little kindness. The hells of desperate poverty are what most of Mexico's people are forced to live through. The classism, the lack of basic schools and putting up with hunger on a daily basis make it impossible for everyday Mexicans to get ahead in life. Growing pot, working for narcos is NO option, it's survival. Legalize and tax pot and the spacepowders, put the tax revenues into schools, free university education, universal health care and public works. The fact that drugs are illegal doesn't stop people from using them. Legalizing would also take the violent crimes' element out of the drugs' equation. Peace out....

    3. Legal or not, the mexican governing narco-mierdocracia will always steal all the money and only hire or educate their own, 5hat is why politics and the political parties are their PRIvate property, they have good reason for it to be so, they have american weapons with which they always win any argument, and if they lose some day, the US has economic blockades, the extreme right, the armed forces, the paramilitary police and independent contractors subcontractors and miscellaneous agitators to raise hell and provide the excuse to fack up the "poor leftist communist broke asses that caused all that problem" in their view...

  25. Risk your freedom to take $400 an oz from Denver to D.F. for $180 an ounce? This may be happening, but sporadically and obviously not for profit. It's basically friends getting high quality weed for good friends in D.F.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Yes it doesn't make sense, why would anyone purchase a oz for $400 in Colorado and traffic to Mexico just to sell for $180? Or am I mistaken? Do they sell it for even more in Mexico to the rich kids?

  27. Along the same lines. Blow is making it's way from the U.S. back to Jallisco and Zacatecas states.

    The reason?

    CDG and CJNG are way too greety and have chosen not to sell real/clean blow in those two states. they are selling mejorales molidas.

    Truth be told people visiting those places need their fix of blow and CJNG distributes mostly meth so, they bring the blow with them instead.

    CDG and CJNG will soon go into battle to take full control of sales in Zac given the proximity of Jal and CJNG to Zac state; at a disavantage CDG for being from far away and selling crap.

    Time will show the winner and whether or not clean blow is available again in those states is to be seen.

  28. Recently bought some Mexican in south Texas for $30 for about 25g. Is it very good quality and the value is amazing. Mexican weed is getting better all the time and is still cheap compared to US.
