Smoked Glass Gallery, operating under the license name Bliss, is no longer active in Montana according to the state license roster. The deactivation was recorded on August 5, 2026, alongside at least 11 other cannabis operator licenses becoming inactive the same day—including Holistic Harvest Cannabis Farms, Three Rivers Cannabis, Lionheart Cannabis Outlet Store, and multiple locations tied to Yellowstoned Cannabis Co.

The cluster of simultaneous deactivations suggests possible batch processing of license terminations rather than individual closures. Montana's adult-use market currently maintains 538 active retail locations, 306 cultivation licenses, and 181 manufacturing operations across the state, according to the state license roster.

The reason for Smoked Glass Gallery's license loss—whether voluntary surrender, non-renewal, or regulatory action—is not specified in the available records. Further detail on the timing and cause of this and the other August 5 deactivations would clarify whether Montana is addressing compliance issues or processing routine administrative changes.
