Massachusetts cannabis taxes total 20.75% — one of the key factors that affects how much you actually pay at a dispensary. Understanding these taxes helps you find the best value when shopping for cannabis on the South Coast.
How Massachusetts Cannabis Taxes Work
Massachusetts imposes three separate taxes on adult-use cannabis purchases:
- Cannabis Excise Tax: 10.75%
- State Sales Tax: 6.25%
- Local Option Tax: 3% (most municipalities)
- Total: 20.75%
At most dispensaries in Massachusetts, these taxes are added to the listed price at checkout. A product listed at $40 actually costs $48.30 after taxes.
How Ignited Culture Is Different
Ignited Culture uses tax-inclusive pricing. Every price displayed on our menu already includes all three taxes. The price you see is the price you pay — no surprises at checkout.
The Annual Savings
A regular cannabis consumer spending $100 per week saves $1,079 per year by choosing Ignited Culture over a dispensary with pre-tax pricing.
