Revana Café | Cannabis Dispensary (Silom) | Cannabis Clinic in Silom, Bangkok

Walking into Revana Café for the first time, the conversation quickly turned to cultivation. The shop operates a cannabis farm inside the same building — and once that came up, a tour of the grow room followed naturally. That combination of dispensary and on-site farm is what makes this Silom location stand apart from most cannabis shops in Bangkok.

Revana Café Silom occupies multiple floors: the ground floor serves as the dispensary, the second floor is a private smoking area, and the upper floors house the growing operation. Alongside medical cannabis, the shop carries CBD products, homemade kratom drinks, and fresh juices.

This article covers what makes the shop worth visiting, three strains recommended by staff, and the Medical Mass CBD variety available for those who prefer low-THC options.

1: What Makes Revana Café Stand Out

From the first visit, several things stood out as signs that this shop approaches cannabis with a medical mindset rather than a purely commercial one. One of the more practical examples: a printed guide available to customers that describes each strain in stock, including its characteristics and suggested use cases. For visitors who do not speak Thai or are unfamiliar with cannabis, that kind of information can make a real difference — particularly in avoiding a difficult experience from choosing a strain that does not match the situation.

Revana Café has prepared a strain-by-strain booklet that covers characteristics and recommended scenarios — a format that is especially useful for first-time visitors.

The shop also displays information about Charlotte Figi, a girl from Colorado who was born with a rare and severe form of epilepsy and experienced hundreds of seizures per week. When CBD was introduced as part of her treatment, her condition improved significantly. The strain developed through that process was later named Charlotte’s Web, and Charlotte passed away in 2020 at the age of 13. Knowing that history tends to shift how people understand what CBD is and where it came from.

CBD strains are not common at dispensaries in Thailand. Revana Café stocks a CBD-dominant variety called Medical Mass, which is covered in more detail in the next section. For visitors interested in low-THC options, this is one of the few places in Bangkok where that is readily available.

Medical Mass — A CBD-Dominant Strain for Calm Without Intoxication

Medical Mass carries a mellow aroma with notes of honey-like sweetness and soft herbs. It is a CBD-dominant strain built around a gentle, grounding experience rather than any strong psychoactive effect. The primary terpene, myrcene, has been associated with deep physical relaxation and reduced muscle tension. The high CBD content tends to temper psychoactive response while supporting a quieting of anxiety and mental noise.

The combination of myrcene and CBD in Medical Mass is considered to underlie the strain’s characteristic sensation — a gradual release of tension in the body, followed by a calm that tends to drift toward natural drowsiness. Research has associated this kind of terpene-cannabinoid interaction with what is sometimes called an entourage effect, where the components reinforce each other’s influence.

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a plant native to Southeast Asia, traditionally used in Thailand and Malaysia as a natural stimulant and fatigue remedy. The leaves contain compounds including mitragynine, which produce different effects depending on the amount consumed: lower doses tend to produce a mild lift in energy and focus, while higher doses are associated with relaxation and reduced physical discomfort. In Thailand, kratom has been used historically by manual laborers for recovery, and in recent years it has attracted attention as a wellness herb, available in juice or powder form. Side effects including drowsiness, nausea, and dependence risk have been reported, and regulations vary by country. Natural origin does not imply safety, and appropriate dosing and sourcing remain important considerations.

Revana Café makes its own kratom in-house, and it is worth trying. Kratom is legal in Thailand. From personal experience, kratom has often carried a medicinal bitterness that made it difficult to enjoy — but the version at Revana Café, mixed with apple soda, was genuinely pleasant. For anyone who has not tried kratom before, this is a low-barrier starting point — though drinking too much at once tends to result in deep relaxation that makes moving around difficult.

2: Strains Available at Revana Café

The strains at Revana Café are sourced from both within Thailand and internationally. From personal experience sampling five or more varieties, the overall quality level was high enough that narrowing the selection down to a single choice took some consideration. Three strains recommended by staff are covered below.

① PunchBerry Cookies — Layered Relaxation with Berry Sweetness and Cookie Depth

PunchBerry Cookies is a hybrid strain with a rich, layered aroma — ripe berry sweetness up front, followed by a creamy, baked-goods quality that builds as the session progresses. The overall profile reads as dessert-forward: fruity and warm, with a lingering depth that tends to feel satisfying rather than fleeting. The terpene combination associated with this strain — limonene, caryophyllene, and myrcene — has been linked to a balanced arc of mood lift followed by gradual physical relaxation.

From observation, the effect tends to open with a brightening of mood and a shift toward positive thinking, then move into a slower, more settled physical state as time passes. That arc makes it a practical option for the transition from an active part of the day into an evening at rest.

② High Cloudz — Light Uplift and Mental Clarity Driven by Terpinolene

High Cloudz has a bright, airy aroma — fruity sweetness with a faint floral note, the kind of scent that feels light rather than dense. It tends to work well when the goal is to shift the mood without losing sharpness. Terpinolene, the primary terpene associated with this strain, has been reported to produce a light, uplifting quality along with a sense of mental clarity.

From observation, the effect arrives relatively quickly after inhaling — a gentle lift in mood and an easing of mental friction, without the heaviness that some strains bring. That makes it a practical choice before tasks that require focus or engagement, rather than something to reach for when the goal is to slow down entirely.

③ King Juice — Tropical Fruit and a Sharp Mood Lift That Settles Cleanly

King Juice is a hybrid strain with a pronounced tropical aroma — mango and pineapple at the front, with a light citrus and gas quality underneath. The impression on the first inhale is bright and juicy, and the effect tends to follow that same character: an immediate shift in mood that feels clean and energetic rather than heavy. The combination of limonene, terpinolene, and myrcene associated with King Juice has been linked to a progression of uplifted mood and clear thinking followed by a quieter physical relaxation in the later stages.

From observation, King Juice tends to open with a strong lift — thinking becomes easier, the environment feels more engaging, and there is a noticeable shift in how the body sits. That quality begins to soften over time into a lighter physical ease, without the experience feeling cut short. It fits well in the period before going out or before creative work, when an upward shift is useful but settling into a couch is not the goal.

The strain selection at Revana Café rotates partially every two months — popular varieties remain in stock for an extended period while new releases are introduced on a regular cycle. Staff are available to suggest options based on situation or preference, so asking directly tends to yield more useful guidance than browsing alone.

The second-floor private smoking area is accessible by letting the staff know. Bongs are available to borrow, though for first-time visitors a rolled joint tends to be a more appropriate starting point given how differently the delivery method affects intensity.
