The Druid

Written By Brennon Bloemendaal

The Druid took a lot of testing and saw several variations before landing on this special mix. It was born after a hike on the Sage trail near Escondido, and a special connection to the beautiful Oak groves that lined it. Druid means “knower of the oak tree” in the Gaelic language, and felt like the perfect name for our experience.
