Guava Oreoz - Hierbacanada - Makaveli_LTD - April 2022
The nose on this is pretty nice and the terps has a slight coffee or expresso shot vibe, the smoke is absolutely phenomenal, super clean burn no residual cough what so ever, super crazy potent 2 bowls and i was smacked. solid 9/10
another video and pictures (all the stuff fresh out of the box + a shot of the gushers sample that was included and its burn)
first, a disclaimer: fully ready to receive some instinctive downvotes, i’ve seen the anger that this MOM can spark around here. but i want to preface this sayin...g that i’ve been aware of their presence on the scene for a while, and had communicated randomly on instagram here and there. never went through but they never rubbed me wrong in conversation.
however, (you can check my post history a few weeks back to verify), i was one of the people scoffing at the cookies listed on their website recently as well. that day, i received a notification they replied to my comment, but it was instantly deleted/removed. i messaged them saying maybe they were shadowbanned, and they sent what they had replied to me there instead. from what i understand, they were misled by a trusted associate/broker, which combined with their unawareness of the OCS/legal market led to that mess. i hold no bad blood, and after seeing all the hype and posts about this particular strain, and having wanted to try Hierba for years now, i had to go for the ridiculous sale that Makaveli was having on it for my first purchase. they definitely hooked me up, as i’ll explain now. apologies for the length already, but i had to get that all out there.
got a free amber glass jar, something i’ve always wanted from their stock, courtesy of a newsletter coupon. very happy with it, looks like they’ll be using these jars to ship with their own labels for all flower in the future. he also tossed in a hierba slap, not to mention some gushers as a gift, something i wasn’t expecting and was totally stoked by. that gram was a little dry/muted, alone in the tiny sample bag it came in, but i’m putting that on canada post. would have been prime after a day jarred with a boveda, but i did not wait that long to smoke it lol. rolled and smoked real nice, i’d definitely check it out alone going ahead. first time trying poncho farms, and i’m not disappointed. a nice loud grape-leaning fruity noise, still sticky on the inside and was perfect in that joint before heading home. man i love my indicas (and indica leaners, for the pedants).
but even for a heavy stone lover like myself, these guava oreoz are a real treat. even more so if youre an exotic head. gorgeous, shiny, perfectly manicured and cured buds. the bags were real cute; smaller than i expected though, given my experience with gifted gardens and their 7g bags with plenty of room. however, whatever slight squishing the expert vacuum seal job gave the flower immediately bounced back once i opened the packs up. definitely not like that other user’s squashed pack from cannapanda. for your reference, the video on here and the video on imgur are separate bags, but they both came with near-identical contents: one large bud, a few mid sized classic nugs, and some smalls that themselves alone look way too pretty. sticky as a motherfucker, instant finger coating after a little busting up. and i can’t make this up, it really does lean towards guava in scent somehow, though it doesnt hit you outright when you open it. the dark greens contrast wonderfully with the glistening layers of trichomes on top.
decidedly not a knockout, but on a sunny day like we’ve been getting recently, this strain is like treating yourself to some real nice ice cream, the fancy stuff. a great feel-good high, maybe not super conducive for working through but definitely one for pleasant conversation or enjoying some music. smokes mostly white, fairly smooth to pull. as far as i understand it, the value makaveli provided can’t be beat here. and further, as the line between full-on dispensary business-like MOMs and the consultant/broker/independent-often-instagram MOMs grows blurrier, i encourage you to explore some of the options out there.
V 8 ( I had ordered something else and it wasn’t in stock so I got this instead ) ( Makaveli did reach out to me but this was the only option I felt OK with )
So there was a slight issue with one of the products I ordered and Makaveli instead gave me a bag of Guava Oreos ...in Exchange and didn’t make me pay the price difference. I let them know that I’d already tried the strain a couple weeks ago but he assured me that this batch is the newest batch and it is more “dialled” in. what I love most is that the bud isn’t dry. I let it sit in the jar for a couple days and that did wonders.
For some reason this bag of guava Oreos was a lot fresher and stickier than what I got from Cana panda, this batch is also definitely more potent, I smoke some of my buddies on it who also tried the last guava Oreos with me and they also complemented the better quality, this time I was not in made fun of for bringing a cute baggy :D
Only thing I don’t like is every time the nugs move it sheds. Hierba deff got better 2nd time around. Overall feels like a way way wayyyyy better version of what i tried before. Pricing is great to, i was mad i got finessed into paying 80$ for a q, its only 55 on makaveli and he just released a coupon on his site…. Legit wish Makaveli could have cana pandas inventory, the friendly service is miles apart.
Overall I’m glad that the live chat didn’t lie to me and in reality even though what I wanted was not in stock after i ordered I was very happy with this.
No punch, weak. Over priced not worth a cent more than 160$ but wat can i expect. Smells like it was stored with food. For what i paid i feel robbed and will find other places to spend my hard earned cash. Was bone stock dry even with a boveda and the stupid jar, i have too many of these jars now. I... tried to earn points by posting a review on their website but for some reason that got resended perhaps because I only gave it a 2 stars or did they stop rewarding reviews i am not entirely sure but they have yet to respond to my email inquiry.
