preroll boxes
Pros: Immediate & smooth effects
Cons: N/A
The packaging is a standard glass jar with holiday graphics. It provides sufficient information regarding the strain type, THC%, and even terpene information.
The buds have a vibrant color to them, and the trichomes are clearly visible in every nug. When opening the jar, you are greeted with a fruit, berry, and skunk aroma. The buds leave a sticky residue when breaking apart, which is always exciting!
The effects are almost immediate and smooth. You get a good head high, and the entire body feels relaxed without making you feel like you are being weighed down. Balanced in the body with calming energy for the mind.
Good for:
Pros: Chill & long-lasting effects
Cons: N/A
The packaging is a standard glass jar with holiday graphics and sufficient information regarding the strain type, THC %, and even terpene information.
The nugs are a great size, with visible glandular trichomes on every nug. It has a pungent diesel and citrus aroma that immediately hits your nose upon opening. The buds leave a slight residue on the fingers when breaking apart.
It is easy on the throat, and you get hints of citrus, wood, and a bit of spice. The effects are felt almost immediately throughout the entire body and mind. I really enjoy how the effects are not overwhelming yet long-lasting!
Good for:
Pros: Stunning packaging, clear cerebral effects
Cons: Flower was a bit dry
I love the packaging on this. It’s simple yet elegant, and the little Christmas bow on top is absolutely adorable. The pungent aroma omitted was true to the name – an explosion of sweet Papaya saturates your senses.
The flower was slightly drier than I prefer (a humidity pack would’ve done wonders for this flower). The buds were nice in size, but the large jar made them look smaller than they actually were. A smaller jar also could’ve been beneficial for this brand. The light green leaves are sprinkled with a heavy dusting of trichomes that you can see all around the jar. The flower broke down easily, leaving a moderate stick on the fingers after handling.
It burned even but a little fast, with only the tiniest throat burn on exhale. The effects were superb and had my body absolutely floating. I felt weightless and completely relaxed but still had a sharp and alert mind. Really great indica experience that is perfect for pain relief and relaxation.
Good for:
Pros: Gorgeous flower, giggly effects
Cons: Dry mouth
This 5g eighth came packing with small/medium buds gleaming in snowy white trichomes, with rust-colored pistil clusters and gorgeous lilac tones sprinkled throughout its vibrant green buds. The aroma was very peppery, with a punch of gas and a hint of earthy tones. It looked and felt fresh, with mild stickiness when handling.
The burn was clean and smooth, with only the slightest throat irritation on exhale. Effects hit you almost instantly, starting with an immediate euphoria that starts in your head, followed by a peaceful calm that melts your body into pure bliss. As your thoughts become only positive, a sense of giggly happiness overtakes you. (The only cons were that I had major dry mouth and munchies after consumption).
Good for:
Pros: Sweet aroma, consistent uplifting high
Cons: N/A
The packaging arrives in a glass jar with a chic color palette. Provided is basic information regarding strain type, name, and THC %.
The buds are a great size and have visible trichomes on every bud. You can smell the Granny Smith Green Apples – sweet, tarty, and refreshing. When breaking apart, the buds leave a significant amount of residue on the fingers.
Smooth on the throat, and the effects are almost immediate. Uplifting and energizing but not overwhelming. The high is consistent and long-lasting. This is a great Sativa-Hybrid strain for remaining active and uplifted!
Good for:
Pros: Extra gram, high THC %
Cons: Buds were a bit small
5g for the price of a premium flower eighth with over 30% THC? I’m a happy camper! The only catch is these buds are small, but I honestly don’t mind, as they’re all going to be ground up and smoked anyhow.
Candy Gas had a mild aroma that matched the name. Sweet diesel was exactly how it smelled. These little buds broke up with ease, leaving a small stick behind on the fingers. They burned even and smooth, with only a minor throat irritation on inhale. Effects were well-balanced and provided relaxation in both body and spirit!
Good for:
Pros: Freshly harvested flower, potent effects
Cons: N/A
The packaging for this flower has a very clean and professional style. Its box is sturdy and has clear sides to be able to view the flower before opening it. Thick and high-quality glass jar. The labeling exceeds the standard amount of information and includes a list of terpenes and cannabinoids, as well as the total THC and CBD.
The flower itself looks amazing! The nugs have a dark green color with bright orange hairs and are also covered in a thick layer of frosty trichomes. Upon packing, I noticed the flower was very sticky to the touch and appeared to be freshly harvested. A very pungent aroma with a pleasant array of floral and fruity notes. I loved the flavor, which was sweet and fruity, with just a touch of earthy pine on the exhale. The smoke was very smooth and did not cause any irritation or burning to the throat.
I enjoyed the effects, which were potent and fast acting. I noticed feelings of euphoria and mood elevation, followed by a well-balanced relaxing body high. Great taste, potent effects, and a high-quality appearance!
Good for:
Pros: Fresh harvest, large buds, potent effects
Cons: N/A
This flower is top tier in every category. The outer packaging is a classy cardboard box with embossed and metallic elements and viewing windows on either side. The inner jar is standard-sized, with a child-proof lid and freshness seal. Very nice overall. The label info has all you could ask for, including a detailed terp and cannabinoid profile, batch & pack date, indica classification, and QR code leading to the company website and survey.
The flower itself looks excellent. It has a dark green color, many orange hairs, and heaps of glowing trichomes. The buds are all close to 1g, with the entire eighth in essentially four buds. No popcorn, shake, or stray stems whatsoever. The structure and density are on point, making them very easy to break and grind up. The buds feel fresh and soft to the touch, being packed in the last 2 weeks.
The aroma is quite pungent, mainly woody and floral, as you'd expect from an OG strain. The taste follows suit with pine and wood and a slightly sour flavor – right up my alley. Aside from some light coughing after a few bong rips, the smoke was not harsh. The effects pack quite a punch, with an immediate watery-eyed classic “stoney” high. I would call it euphoric and somewhat sedating.
This is great for an evening on the couch. 32% THC places it in the industry-leading category for sure. Overall, this is a great top-tier flower with no downsides. Enjoyable for everyone!
Good for:
Pros: Detailed strain info, blissful effects
Cons: N/A
The Gold Cuts packaging looks great, with a classy color selection of black, white and gold. I love that they kept windows on the side of the box so you can see what you’re getting. The label is so detailed and includes detailed terpene information. The jar inside includes a black cap with the strain & brand label on top. I really appreciated this, as there are many brands that don’t include labels on the actual jar, so you need to save the box to keep track of your flower strains.
The moment I cracked the seal open, a strong aroma filled the air. With lovely scents of sweet cream and a hint of cinnamon, this flower had me excited for my smoke sesh. The flower was a bit soft, with loose green leaves and large clusters of bright orange pistils throughout the flower. A small amount of stick was left behind on the fingers after breaking it down. The flower burned even and smooth, with absolutely no throat burn. The creamy aroma matched the delicious flavor left behind, with a slightly sweet fruitiness detected on exhale.
Effects were uplifting and brought on absolute glee! I found myself smiling ear to ear as all stress melted away and was replaced with pure bliss. A really delightful strain that I will be indulging in regularly. A+

flower and
preroll boxes
Pros: Rolled to perfection, mood-boosting effects
Cons: Packaging was a little lackluster
The packaging leaves more to desire, but the preroll was rolled to perfection with a branded crutch and a beautiful twist on the end. Aroma was very mild, but I could pick up traces of buttery vanilla. The preroll lit with ease and burned evenly, causing a slight tickle in the throat on inhale. Flavor had notes of earthy citrus that lingered behind on the palate. The effects were very pleasant, giving me a boost in my mood and comfort throughout my body. It was exactly what I needed after a long day at work!
Good for:
Pros: Perfect roll, energizing effects
Cons: N/A
This Henry’s Originals preroll was a pleasant surprise. I loved the simplistic approach to the design and colorway of the container. Although there was no in-depth breakdown for the terpenes, the THC % and strain type were easy to locate. A perfect roll and no issues while smoking. The flavor was citrusy, and the effects were quite potent. I thoroughly enjoyed the energizing high!
Good for:
Pros: No-frills preroll, great for newbies/veterans
Cons: Packaging could be upgraded
This preroll is above average, but nothing fancy. The package is a slick metal tube with a child-proof lid and tamper seal. There is not much in graphic design, but the layout is classy enough. The metal tube is perfectly sized and protective of the product inside. The label info is pretty standard (no terp profile or QR code). The preroll itself is rolled nicely with a branded crutch.
Quick and easy toke and the burn remained even throughout. No canoes or relights needed. The smoke was not harsh with only some minor coughing and throat irritation. Definitely better than average. The flavor is mainly earthy and woody. Effects are moderate in strength, with mainly calming and relaxing effects. Not really sedating, but the indica category certainly makes sense. 26% THC is a nice, happy medium that is great for veterans and newbies.
Overall, this is a great no-frills preroll that checks off all the boxes. Henry's also uses organic growing methods, which might not produce the fanciest buds but are clean and tasty.
Good for:
Pros: Balanced high, long-lasting effects
Cons: Flavor was a bit strong
The Stiiizy Blue Burst prerolls had some great elements! I loved the packaging and the overall presentation of the prerolls themselves but found the blueberry flavor a bit intense for my preferences. The preroll burned a little quicker than normal, but I’m sure this is due to the infusion. Outside of that, I did love the high, where I felt energized and alert but still had a nice body relaxation. The effects were quick and long-lasting!
Good for:
Pros: Exceptional fruity flavor, giggly/energetic high
Cons: Slightly harsh on the exhale
Holy Crap, Stiiizy! I don't even know where to start because these prerolls are so incredible! The first note is how these prerolls are perfectly coated in kief. When I peeled the tamper seal back, my jaw literally dropped. There was this scent of fresh-cut strawberries with a subtle creaminess to it; I legit could not bring my nose away from the jar. I was so surprised by how natural and fresh of a smell this product has.
Once I got my last full sniff in, I pulled one of these precious J’s out of the jar and quickly sparked up. The first inhale was absolutely perfect and full of this earthy, fruity (strawberry) flavor. I did get a little bit of harshness on the exhale, but I feel like that’s normal for any infused preroll. The effects were just as delightful as the taste and smell of this product, giving me a nice energizing and giggle-inducing cerebral high that was great while I did a couple of rounds of gaming. I've tried a few flowers from Stiiizy, and their prerolls have made me an even bigger fan.
Good for:
Pros: Mouthwatering flavor, beautiful packaging
Cons: Broken QR code link
This Stiiizy preroll pack was one of my favorite preroll packs I've had the pleasure of consuming. It came in a small glass jar, capped with a plastic purple top. Surrounding the entirety of the small jar was a professionally printed brand sticker complete with holographic purple font and images of cannabis leaves. A small testing information sticker is applied along the side, containing surface-level product info, as well as a small QR code. Unfortunately, this QR code is a dead link and did not provide access to further testing results.
Upon opening the jar, you're greeted with an intense watermelon smell that's very reminiscent of sour patch kids. This lovely watermelon aroma translates seamlessly into a sweet taste on your lips and fills the room with a similarly sweet smell. These five joints were rolled perfectly, each identical to the next, and finished with a purple Stiiizy branded filter. Caked in kief, terp-enhanced, and infused with a "special" live resin, these joints tested at a potent 41.17% THC.
The prerolls burned slow and even, weren't too harsh, and tasted fantastic. Watermelon Z produced relaxing effects, which would make it useful as a sleeping aid, or for those looking to fully relax after a long day.
Good for:
Pros: Very potent, holiday-themed strain
Cons: N/A
These infused prerolls are terrific across the board and full of holiday cheer! The packaging is a classy cardboard sliding box with a soft matte finish and gold metallic branding. There are also some magnified cannabis graphics on the inner packaging. The label info is above average, with the potency, batch, pack date, and indica classification. There is also a basic flavor and effects profile, but specific terpenes are not listed.
The prerolls themselves are nicely rolled with a twist enclosure. One of them was a bit looser than the rest, but not a major issue. They have a festive holiday-themed crutch, which is a nice touch. Easy to light and the burn remained even throughout with medium speed. The smoke was better than most considering the hash and diamond infusion. Barely any coughing and only minor dry mouth after many hits.
The flavor is mainly earthy, with some fruitiness to it, as the label suggests. The effects are definitely strong, with a relaxing and slightly sedating high. The indica category certainly makes sense. 38% THC is a great number for connoisseurs and would be a knockout for newbies. Overall, this one is a no-brainer purchase!
Good for:
Pros: Festive, smooth inhale, relaxing
Cons: N/A
The Stone Road “My Matzah Dream” was a fantastic preroll pack that I would recommend to my friends or family. The strain name is great, and the packaging did not fail to amaze me. I loved the Jewish-themed designs on the filter! When smoking, the preroll burned evenly and was as smooth as can be. I had an incredibly relaxing high where I could sink into my couch and listen to music and movies all night, not wanting to move one inch. Definitely one of my favorite packs.
Good for:
Pros: Consistently rolled, peppery aroma, sedative
Cons: Some harshness/dry mouth
I loved this preroll pack! Easy to open and small enough to toss in your bag on the go, the packaging hits all of the marks for me. A gentle squeeze on the sides and a tug on the bottom and out slides 5 perfectly packed prerolls, uniform in appearance and size.
The aroma was strong and omitted a peppery pine smell. My preroll lit with ease, with no signs of canoeing or need for relights. The smoke was slightly harsh on exhale, but I imagine that is due to the hash and diamond infusion. The effects were heavy and fast-acting, with feelings of deep sedation that melted away all muscle tension and stress from the day. It was a perfect nightcap after a long day at work, with the only notable negative side effect being dry mouth. Overall, an excellent preroll experience!
Good for:
Pros: Holiday design, energizing effects
Cons: N/A
I have been a huge fan of Stone Road for a while now. Products like this one are a perfect example of why. First, I love the seasonal name and crutch in the prerolls. Super cute! I also appreciate how their packaging hasn’t changed one bit since my first encounter with this brand (probably two years ago now).
The scent of these prerolls was light but noticeably fragrant. I got citrus notes and a little earthiness with each whiff. All the prerolls were filled evenly, and the tips were twisted and clipped, allowing for a perfect burn once lit. No signs of canoeing at any point.
The inhale was pretty smooth, considering this is an infused product. The flavor was interesting, to say the least; I got some mild notes of citrus and diesel, but because this might be a blend of sativa strains, the flavor profile isn't strong. Not a negative in my book, considering how fresh and smooth the preroll smelled and tasted. Effect-wise, I would have to say this product is very uplifting, euphoric and energizing. Definitely a product that gave me the feeling of Christmas cheer!
Good for:
Pros: Uplifting effects, pleasant flavors
Cons: N/A
The packaging for these prerolls have a clean and sleek design. Inside, they’re consistent and rolled tight with an even burn. I enjoyed the flavor, which was slightly sweet and spicy with an herbal nutty finish. The smoke was also pretty smooth on the throat and seemed to be rolled with high-quality flower. The effects were not super heavy but did provide a happy and energetic head high that is ideal for boosting creativity and productivity. Overall, I would recommend this product for its pleasant taste, enjoyable effects, and high-quality appearance.
Good for:
Pros: Holiday-themed, smooth burn, creative effects
Cons: Poor placement of product info label
Stone Road is a very reputable brand name, and this product is indicative of what I would expect from them. This five-pack of prerolls, each containing .7 grams of flower, came in a small, cream-colored cardboard packaging about the size of a cigarette box. The Stone Road brand name is printed in cursive, emphasized by a holographic gold script that catches your eye. Also, similarly to a cigarette box, the package is sealed with a plastic, cellophane-type wrapper. My concern is that the product information sticker, which provides minimal information at best, is stuck to this wrapper instead of the box. Unless you want to keep the wrapping sitting around your house, this info will be thrown into the trash.
Inside the box, these five joints are housed in a wax "pocket," which is inscribed with an 'SR' logo. They’re each rolled identically without any creases or bends, and the best part is they're finished with a holiday-themed filter/crutch. Sticking with the "Super Stocking Stuffer" strain name, the filter features images of Santa Claus, a gingerbread man, a snowman, and more! This is a great touch and makes it a wonderful gift to the stoner in your life!
Infused with both hash and diamonds, these burned slowly and smoothly and left me feeling both creative and focused. They produced a lovely berry taste and aroma, leading me to believe the flower is rich in either nerolidol or ocimene terpenes.
Good for:
flower and
preroll boxes
Pros: Great texture & taste, body buzz effects
Cons: Plain packaging, “hard” comedown
The packaging is pretty plain with no artistic flairs or clever designs. Despite being inside of a Mylar bag, the crispy treat was still intact and held together nicely. A hard layer of white chocolate covers the top, sprinkled with chocolate cookie crumbs. The chocolate layer made dosing easier, as I was able to cut with a sharp knife and keep clean, defined lines. The resealable package was very useful and perfect to store my leftover treat in.
The flavor was on the sweet side, and I tasted more white chocolate than I did the “cream” you would expect to find in a chocolate cookie. Nonetheless, it had a great flavor with no cannabis flavor detected. The texture was chewy, with a nice crisp from the rice cereal. It tasted fresh and had a good amount of chocolate cookies mixed in.
It took about an hour before effects hit me. It came in strong and sudden, keeping me elevated for hours. I had a really nice overall body buzz, with a little bit of brain fog and a lot of chuckles. My eyes don’t usually get red, but this treat gave me that squinty red eyed look. There was nothing but good vibes throughout the entire experience. The comedown was a little hard and left me super sleepy. I slept wonderfully that night, waking up with no lingering effects or grogginess. Great for evening use, but I wouldn’t recommend popping these in before a day out, unless you’re fully prepared to nap it off.
Good for:
Pros: Pleasant taste, full-body buzz
Cons: High in sugar, difficult to dose
The packaging for this edible does not have much of an artistic design, however, it seems to be made with good quality materials and sufficient product information. The texture is similar to a large rice crispy treat with rainbow colors. The ingredients are not the healthiest and contain 40mg of sugar and also a few artificial colors and preservatives.
I enjoyed the flavor, which was very sweet and fruity with a slightly chocolatey finish. This treat is quite large and does not tear apart very easily, which makes it a bit difficult to get an accurate dose. The effects were heavy and provided full body sedation with an uplifting and euphoric head high as well. Overall, I would recommend this product.
Good for:
Pros: Clean ingredients, familiar taste
Cons: Package aesthetic could be improved
While I wouldn't personally purchase this product in the future, I could see others enjoying it. The product came in a somewhat large, rectangular mylar bag with a basic design. A simple pink, white, and blue color scheme, along with a script of the same color makes the words almost fade into the packaging, and thus somewhat tough to read. You wouldn't necessarily know what the product is at first glance. The product information leaves a bit to be desired, but a positive is that the ingredients are clean and easily recognizable.
Inside this packaging is a large rice crispy treat, which looks great, complete with an artistic chocolate drizzle. A wax-paper wrapping is included inside the package, with dosing suggestions broken down into 10 x 10mg THC segments. The treat is easy to cut and has the consistency you would expect, along with a familiar taste. This edible left me with a bought of the munchies, and I would suggest this product to anyone looking to build their appetite, while simultaneously relaxing their mind and body.
Good for:
Pros: Delicious taste, no cannabis flavor
Cons: Bit too sugary
There isn't a whole lot to say about this product because the brand name says it all: it was Heavenly. No “ifs” or “buts” about it. My only "negative" critique is how much powdered sugar was on these tasty treats. The taste of these was perfect – they nailed the chocolate cookie and cream filling in a simple bite-sized treat. I can picture eating a whole bag in one sitting because of how good these are with no noticeable cannabis flavor at all.
The effects are just as delightful; I would label it as more of a Hybrid in the sense that there is a nice relaxing body high, but with a very pleasant and functional cerebral effect that is uplifting and euphoric. I would recommend a product like this for those who want to try edibles but are a bit intimidated by them or worried about an edible being too strong. A very classic snack that is easy to eat and never fails to give a quality experience each time.
Good for:
Pros: Easy to dose, cerebral high
Cons: N/A
An adult version of a favorite childhood snack, these delicious fruity marshmallow treats brought me back. I really appreciated the wax paper dosing guide, making it easy to cut perfect and precise 10mg doses. The texture was spot on and had a delightful chewy marshmallow texture with a burst of fruity pebbles flavor. I had mine with a tall glass of ice cold oat milk and felt completely giddy with the entire experience. The effects come in gentle and intensify as time passes on, giving a heavy cerebral boost and overall body buzz. I really enjoyed this sugary treat and would definitely recommend to both newbie and veteran consumers
Good for:
Pros: Relaxing effects, great taste
Cons: Bit too sugary
The packaging for this snack has a bit of a bland design but uses mellow colors that are appealing to the eye. The texture is similar to Chex mix but is covered in a thick sugary powder. The ingredients are not bad and are all natural with no artificial colors or flavors added. They are a bit high in sugar, however. I enjoyed the taste, which was sweet and citrusy with a mild chocolaty finish. There was no residual cannabis taste as well. The effects were very relaxing and provided a heavy body high with a balanced cerebral and uplifting head high.
Good for:
Pros: No cannabis flavor, fast-acting effects
Cons: High sugar content
The bag was bulky but easy to open and kept the product protected enough that most pieces were intact. The ingredients are certainly not what I would consider healthy, but that’s not the intention of these chocolate peanut butter treats. They are meant to be a nice sweet treat, and they deliver just that! There is pretty much no cannabis flavor detectable in this Chex mix; The peanut butter and chocolate flavors work in perfect harmony, and the powdered sugar on the outside gives it a nice sweet boost to balance out the flavors. Effects were pretty quick to hit and gave me an all-over body high and sense of well-being.
Good for:
Pros: Rich & sweet flavor, deeply relaxing
Cons: Gets stuck in your teeth
The packaging for these gummies has a clean design but is a bit bland and not very artistic. Each gummy is individually wrapped, so they did not stick together. The gummies are very chewy and tend to get stuck in your teeth. I actually really enjoyed the flavor of these gummies. They are very sweet with a burst of creamy berries that fills the taste buds. The flavor is rich and velvety smooth. The effects are potent and provide deep body relaxation and sedation, followed by a heavy dose of drowsiness.
Good for:
Pros: Exceptional taste, energetic buzz
Cons: N/A
Great packaging with soft colors and a bold logo. The package was easy to open and had ten individually wrapped 10mg chews inside. The pink square resembled a Starburst with taste and texture to match. The flavor was exceptional, with only the tiniest hint of cannabis detectable. The chew was bursting with its fruity papaya punch flavor, with a chewy texture that was so satisfying. One of the best fruit chews I’ve tasted! Effects were perfect and gave me an energetic buzz that had me ready to face the day. Loved everything about these chews and will most definitely be trying their other flavors.
Good for:
Pros: Eye-catching packaging, fantastic flavor
Cons: N/A
These sour chews were fantastic! I loved the pink packaging with the lightning bolt and the detailed engraving on the background. It reflected the strain very well and would have caught my eye on the add-on menu! The presentation of the edible reminded me of a starburst and tasted just as good as one! It was chewy but nothing that would have hurt my teeth or jaw. The flavor was also on the nose with a strong raspberry lemon flavor that drew me in even further into loving this product!
Good for:
Pros: Familiar taste, no cannabis flavor
Cons: Bit difficult to dose
This cannabis-infused orange soda came in a simple, silver 12 fl. oz. can. An orange-colored Keef brand label surrounds the can, and it all seems very reminiscent of a craft brewery canned beer, which I dig. The testing information was viable enough, and the ingredients used were familiar and clean.
Orange Kush tasted exactly like any orange soda you would buy from the store. It had the flavor, consistency, and carbonation of one of my favorite beverages, and there was absolutely no cannabis flavor to speak of. The slide-top pop-top allows a user to dose the product and return it to the fridge later. The only issue is it can be a bit tough to dose. There are dosing lines along the side of the can, but they can be pretty tough to eyeball.
The effects actually came on a bit quicker than I anticipated. What started as a calm head high slowly became a full-bodied relaxation that I enjoyed. Labeled as "XTREME 100mg THC," this is a product I could see myself consuming on those nights I don't want to consume alcohol.
Good for:
Pros: Exceptional flavor, very strong effects
Cons: Difficult to dose
I love how this can looks. It’s not blatantly cannabis-looking and really normalizes consumption by giving you something that looks like a normal can of soda. The ingredients are simple, and the sugar content is about where you’d expect a soda to be. The top is resealable, so you don’t need to worry about the soda going flat between doses. My main complaint is the dosing on this is really hard. I didn’t have a measuring cup handy to measure 1.2 fluid ounces, and the label markings are pretty useless since you can’t see through the can. I ended up taking a few swigs and hoping for the best.
The flavor was exceptional, tasting exactly like root beer with no cannabis flavor detected. Effects came on fast. I loved the euphoric body high, but it definitely felt a little intense. It never got to the point of being overwhelming, but I would advise using caution and taking the time to dose properly.
I watched my favorite stoner Christmas movie (The Night Before) while enjoying the ride. I laughed a little harder than usual and had a lively party with myself. I plan on using the rest of the soda with some vanilla ice cream to make a root beer float, and can’t wait to share it with a friend over another funny movie. Highly recommended, but make sure to start slow!
Good for:
flower and
preroll boxes
Pros: Sleek unboxing, decent quality, sedative effects
Cons: Some throat irritation
I am usually quite picky when it comes to vapes, but this one is right up my alley. The package is a cardboard sliding box with a minimalistic design that resembles Apple products in terms of the unboxing experience. The cart is protected by an insert inside, however, there is no viewing window. The label info is pretty standard; no QR code or terp profile. The cart hardware feels heavy and sturdy. It has a ceramic mouthpiece, glass chamber, and rubber stoppers on both ends.
The oil appears to be of very decent quality, with a light yellow color and excellent clarity, and it passes the thickness test with flying colors – no stray air bubbles to be found. The flavor is very terpy, but does not taste like it has artificial flavors. I would call it sour and pine. The vapor is not harsh, only the usual lingering throat irritation I get with all vapes. This one is surely above average.
The effects are quite strong, with a mainly relaxing and somewhat sedating high. This is a true "in da couch" strain for sure. Overall, I think this is a great product. The hardware is very solid, and the oil tastes and looks pure.
Good for:
Pros: Cool vibe, clear oil, tropical flavor
Cons: N/A
The packaging is a very mid-century modern type of vibe, which I love a lot. The oil is crystal clear and a beautiful gold color, and I love the cream-colored ceramic tip with both the logo and strain initials on the cart. I switch my vapes up a lot, so after a week or two, I will forget what the strain is unless there is a brand name/logo or strain name on it. The flavor was good, it gave me a tropical fruit, mango/pineapple juice type of vibe. The effects were solid, giving me a good uplifting and euphoric high that is great for getting the day started!
Good for:
Pros: Smooth inhale, awesome flavor, well-balanced
Cons: N/A
The packaging for this vape is somewhat basic but does have a clean look and quality feel. I noticed the labeling contains a good amount of information. The cart seems to be made with high-quality materials and has a smooth clean rip with good airflow. The oil has a very clear and golden color and appears to be of good quality as well.
I loved the flavor, which packed a punch of sweet and fruity pine with heavy citrusy terps. The vapor was pretty smooth and only caused a slight tickle in the back of the throat. I enjoyed the effects, which were fast-acting and well-balanced. I noticed energizing effects right away, as well as a boost in creativity and mild body relaxation. Overall, I would recommend this product for its enjoyable taste, potent effects, and high-quality appearance.
Good for:
Pros: Thick & high-quality oil, pain-relieving
Cons: Could use some terpene info
This 510 cart was delivered in a small, sleek, matte black finished cardboard box. The Eureka brand name is printed in a holographic silver font, which works well against the matte black finish. Inside the "slide-style" packaging is a single silicone stopper, which is found on the bottom of the cart, covering the 510 thread connection. A product testing information sticker is available but only provides you with surface-level information.
Made with a black plastic mouthpiece, as well as a Eureka-branded plastic tank. The oil was free of PG, VG, PEG, Vitamin E Acetate, MCT Oil, and DSMO. It was very thick, passing any viscosity tests, and boasts a very light honey-gold color. It had a very sweet, fruity taste, and these same attributes were noticeable in the aroma of the “smoke”. With all of this considered, I would guess this oil is rich in either nerolidol or ocimene terpenes, or a nice little combination of both. I experienced relaxing effects and a strong body high. I would definitely recommend this for pain management.
Good for:
Pros: Sleek packaging, natural flavors, productive high
Cons: N/A
This was one of the first vapes I remember getting in my box after joining Nugg Club, so they hold a special place in my heart. I’ve always thought that Eureka products are phenomenal, and this product validated that opinion. Same old reliable childproof packaging that I was able to get through with ease, and a very sleek and high-end style of branding that I adore. Once I slid the cart out of the box, I couldn't get it screwed in fast enough to start enjoying this delicious vape.
That first pull was absolute perfection. No clogging, no bubbles, just a natural tasting fruity and earthy flavor. Also taking the strain name into consideration, it does evoke the taste of biting into a mango. Overall, it is a very light but natural flavor that is delightful on the palate.
The effects are so lovely and quickly kick in without feeling overwhelming. This vape gives a very uplifting and creative type of vibe. Definitely a strain that gets the juices flowing and the brain ready to be stimulated. 100% perfect for daytime use and very functional. Would be great for a creative session or to enjoy your favorite tracks while you do the dishes or walk the dog.
Good for:
Pros: Citrusy flavors, satisfying experience
Cons: Slight cotton mouth
The Eureka Mimosa cartridge was great overall and delivered a satisfying experience. I didn’t mind the packaging for the vape, but I did wish that they included a more descriptive breakdown of the terpenes. I loved the sweet citrusy taste of this cartridge and noticed that the quality of the oil was great! After a few puffs, I immediately felt relaxed and euphoric. I did get a little bit of cotton mouth, but it didn’t cause great discomfort.
Good for:
Pros: Nice fruity flavor, relaxing & uplifting
Cons: Moderate effects
The labeling contains a good amount of information, including the total THC, CBD, CBC, CBG, and the mfg/pkg dates. The oil has a decent color and is mostly light gold. The flavor was nice and consisted of slightly fruity notes. The vapor was slightly harsh and caused minor irritation to the throat, but nothing major. The effects were moderate and provided mental euphoria and mild body relaxation after a few puffs.
Pros: Balanced pain relief, smooth flavor
Cons: Oil oxidation
Sleek, matte black packaging. Inside the "slide-style" packaging is a foam insert, which protects the cartridge well. A testing label is placed directly on the front of the packaging with basic product information.
The oil was very thick, passed viscosity tests, and boasted a light honey-gold color. There did appear to be some early oxidation occurring, which resulted in a dark ring beginning to form along the top of the oil line. I know this is natural but wanted to make note of it. It still smoked smooth, was never harsh, and left a spicy finish on my palate. With that taste and the aroma of the smoke considered, I would guess this Sunset Punch is rich in Caryophyllene terpenes. This indica vape provided me with pain-mitigating effects that relaxed my mind and body without being excessively sedative.
Good for:
Pros: Earthy/berry flavor, balanced effects
Cons: Label placement could be improved
The packaging is sleek, with a soft silicone texture and a metallic silver logo that really pops. The COA label seems almost like an afterthought and takes away from the overall appearance of the package. I wish they would’ve invested in a black label with white labeling to better match the box. The child-resistant box was easy to open, once I figured out I needed to remove the top tamper sticker. (lol)
Cradled inside the box is a branded cartridge with thick golden oil. The vape burned smooth, with an even airflow and no throat burn. Flavor was earthy with hints of blueberry. Effects started with a subtle body tingle, with light cerebral effects. I was still functional and alert but also had a joyful calmness overtake my mind and body. I did experience a bit of dry mouth and eyes, but nothing too intense. This is a great strain if you want to get things done without the intensity of a sativa or couchlock that indicas often bring.
Good for:
Pros: Eye-catching, energetic buzz
Cons: Somewhat unprotective packaging
This cartridge was very impressive in all but one area: the packaging. While I commend Papa's Herb for providing silicone stoppers on both sides of their 510-thread cart, it always scares me to see a cartridge in a mylar package. Granted, this mylar package was bright gold in color, beautiful, and will catch your eye 100% of the time. The strain name can be found along the top front of the package and on the testing information sticker on the back. The info provided here is surface-level at best, and I would've liked to see a QR code to provide me with more in-depth product details.
Within the shiny gold packaging was a glass branded tank, topped with a white ceramic mouthpiece. Encased is a thick, light gold oil that is nearly clear and boasts a beautiful floral/lavender taste and aroma. These attributes lead me to believe that this Lemon Cherry Gelato is rich in linalool terpenes. It smokes extremely smooth, is never harsh, and the device stays clog-free from the first puff to the last.
This particular strain left me feeling uplifted and euphoric while also providing a slight energetic buzz; All of which were more than welcome. This was a surprisingly great product that I would love to see better protected in more stable packaging.
Good for:
Pros: Sweet taste, smooth inhales
Cons: Lackluster packaging
The packaging for this vape is lower quality than I prefer and does not provide much protection to the cartridge. However, the labeling contains adequate information, including the total THC, CBD, and mfg/pkg dates. The cart itself looks about average in quality. The oil has a golden color to it and no visible air bubbles. The flavor is pleasant and has a slightly fruity and sweet taste. The vapor is also pretty smooth and does not cause much irritation to the throat. I enjoyed the effects, which were mostly uplifting and energizing with some mood elevation as well. Overall, I would recommend this product for its fruity taste with enjoyable high.
Pros: Vibrant packaging, heavy euphoria
Cons: Slight burn in throat
As far as Mylar packaging goes, this one is done well. The vibrant colors are eye-catching, the strain is clearly marked and easy to identify, and the child-resistant packaging is effective but still easy to open. I was pleased to see the cartridge was made of quality components; You never know with Mylar packaging, but this company seems like they’ve saved on packaging to focus on device and oil quality.
With a ceramic tip and glass chamber, the oil had a nice golden tone to it. It appeared to be thick and free of microbubbles. The Papa’s Herb name is branded on the vape, which was nice, but I would’ve loved to see the strain name on the cartridge as well. I find that so helpful and such a nice touch, especially if you’re like me and swap cartridges frequently.
The inhale had a tiny burn that lingered in the back of my throat, but nothing that would prevent me from enjoying this vape again. The effects were quite potent, bringing on a heavy euphoria and deep body relaxation. I was pleasantly surprised with the experience and would definitely love to try some of their other strains.
Good for:
Pros: Clear-headed high, citrusy flavor
Cons: N/A
I’m a huge Tangie fan, so I was excited to get some strong citrusy notes on the inhale. The oil is clear and has a gold hue with no microbubbles. There was no clogging while hitting, and the effects are mild and comfortable, allowing me to remain very functional. Pleasantly energizing and uplifting!
