Business Spotlight: Snapdragon Hemp

Snapdragon Hemp recently opened The Dragon, a dab and drink lounge, at 508 Broad Street in Downtown Chattanooga. Snapdragon specializes in products that include Federally Legal Hemp. The company aims to educate, inspire, and bring the highest-quality legal and effective cannabis products to Chattanooga and the entire country. 

The Dragon is a 21+, 420-friendly lounge offering RINS9 refreshments, seasonal drafts, non-alcoholic cocktails, treats, and more. On their menu, you’ll find hemp-infused cocktails including The Dragon, made with dragon fruit, dark cherries, club soda, and lemon-lime syrup, with the option to make it hemp-free or add 10 mg, 25 mg or   The lounge also offers food items including salsa and tortilla chips, among other snacks.

“Downtown Chattanooga was chosen for The Dragon because it's home, and also because it has a large number of bars,” said Snapdragon marketing and e-commerce director Alec Wright. “We want to offer something different and more elevated than your standard bar, break up the monotony, and offer a unique, hemp-infused hangout spot for Chattanooga that most folks have never seen before.”

Snapdragon has been in business in Chattanooga since 2016, with CEO Josh Manning getting his start at local farmers markets and events. The first local retail locations opened in 2018, and they now have over a dozen locations in the greater Chattanooga area.
