ABOUT LEGACY LIFESTYLE
Legacy Lifestyle Cannabis is a Brooklyn-based, licensed adult-use dispensary built to bring high-quality cannabis and a trusted neighborhood experience to the community. We are independently owned, community-rooted, and committed to making cannabis retail feel professional, welcoming, and unmistakably Brooklyn.
Legacy Lifestyle was founded by Shanduke McPhatter, a Brooklyn entrepreneur, author, and nationally recognized anti-violence advocate. After transitioning from incarceration to community leadership, Shanduke built Legacy Lifestyle to create economic opportunity for the people most impacted by prohibition and to set a new standard for what a neighborhood dispensary should feel like.
We sit at the intersection of culture, community, and quality. You will find lab-tested products, knowledgeable staff who actually take the time to talk you through your options, and a retail space designed to feel elevated without losing its neighborhood character. Every purchase supports a business that is locally owned and mission-driven.
Yes. Legacy Lifestyle Cannabis is fully licensed by the New York State Office of Cannabis Management to sell adult-use cannabis. Every product we carry comes from licensed New York cultivators, processors, and brands.
Community is built into who we are. We invest in local programming, partner with Brooklyn organizations working on youth development and anti-violence, and create pathways for people from impacted communities to participate in the legal cannabis industry. The work goes far beyond what happens at the register.

OUR PRODUCTS
Our menu includes flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, concentrates, tinctures, topicals, and accessories. We curate every category with a mix of trusted favorites and standout local brands so you always have a confident choice no matter what you came in for.
Yes. Every product on our shelves is tested by an independent, state-approved laboratory for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, microbial content, and other contaminants. If a product is in our case, it has cleared compliance testing.
All of our products are sourced from licensed New York cultivators, processors, and brands. We focus on partners who share our standards for quality, transparency, and responsible business practices.
Yes. We carry a range of low-THC and CBD-forward options for customers who want the benefits of cannabis without a strong psychoactive effect. Ask our team and we will walk you through what is in stock.
Indica strains are traditionally associated with relaxing, body-focused effects. Sativa strains are more often linked to uplifting, energizing experiences. Hybrids blend characteristics of both. These categories are a useful starting point, but the full experience depends on cannabinoid content, terpene profile, and your own body chemistry.
Terpenes are the natural compounds that give cannabis its aroma and flavor. They also shape how a strain feels. For example, limonene is bright and citrusy, myrcene is earthy and calming, and pinene is sharp and clear-headed. Reading terpene profiles is one of the most accurate ways to predict how a product will feel.
Start low and go slow. Tell our team how you want to feel, your experience level, and any concerns, and we will recommend a product and dose that fits. For beginners, we typically suggest a low-THC edible, a small pre-roll, or a single-puff vape so you can ease into your experience.
Store cannabis in an airtight container, in a cool and dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep all products in their original child-resistant packaging and out of reach of children, pets, and anyone under 21.
Yes. Supporting New York operators is a core part of who we are. You will see local cultivators and small craft brands featured throughout our menu, and our team is happy to point them out when you visit.
