Alibi Sweeps the OG Invitational with Iconic Wins for Gary Poppins and Durban Poison
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: PORTLAND, OR — [April 20, 2025] — Alibi, an iconic Oregon cannabis brand known for its craft cultivation and commitment to quality, made a historic mark at this year’s OG Invitational, sweeping the competition with two major awards. This dual victory cements Alibi’s status as a leader in Oregon’s fiercely competitive craft cannabis scene.
Lacey Thomas, Alibi’s Head of Cultivation, was elated with the outcome:
“We pour our hearts into every batch, and it’s incredibly validating to see that resonate with both expert judges and everyday consumers. Gary Poppins and Durban Poison reflect two very different sides of our garden, but both represent our obsession with excellence.”
Alibi took home the prestigious Judges’ OG Award for its fan-favorite strain Gary Poppins, praised for its rich terpene profile and smooth, euphoric effects. In a powerful one-two punch, the brand also secured the People’s Choice Award for its legendary Durban Poison, a classic sativa that continues to win over consumers with its energetic clarity and sweet aroma.
A True Test of Craft
The OG Invitational is more than just a cannabis competition—it’s a celebration of craftsmanship, passion, and resilience, reflecting the very soul of Oregon’s independent cannabis farmers.
Unlike other competitions, the OG Invitational strips away categories. Outdoor, greenhouse, and indoor flower all go head-to-head, judged solely on quality—no frills, just flower. This makes the win even more significant, as each entry competes on equal footing regardless of growing method.

Alibi’s ability to stand out in this crowded field showcases the brand’s deep genetic library, refined cultivation practices, and commitment to the plant. The clean sweep marked a major milestone for the Alibi team, who have steadily grown into one of the most respected names in the Oregon cannabis scene.
As the Oregon market continues to evolve, Alibi proves that passion, precision, and authenticity never go out of style.
