The Story

Emerged from the LA cannabis scene in late 2020 as a family-operated Greenmount LLC brand. Built its reputation on ultra-low-temperature cryogenic extraction (below -100°F) that locks in 10–20% terpene content — well above category norms. Brand architect Nick Coburn led ColdFire to premium retail partnerships (including Cookies Mission Valley) and a 2024 Emerald Cup solventless-vape victory before departing in August 2023 to launch Flavorade Extracts. The ensuing trade-secret / interference / trade-libel / computer-fraud suit brought by ColdFire/Greenmount against Coburn was dismissed with prejudice in April 2025 — a full vindication of Coburn. The brand continues under Greenmount ownership but now competes directly against Coburn's Flavorade.

Legal (flag): Greenmount LLC / ColdFire filed suit against Nick Coburn (former brand architect, who departed August 2023 to launch Flavorade Extracts) alleging misappropriation of trade secrets, interference with business relationships, unfair competition, trade libel, and computer fraud. US federal court dismissed all claims with prejudice in April 2025, vindicating Coburn and affirming that ColdFire's extraction methodology was non-proprietary. Flavorade now competes directly against ColdFire. [7][8][13]
