MCDaddy75

MOM Name: ** Kootenay Botanicals ** I received a sample pack from Kootenay Botanicals. It contained CBD Skin Cream, CB Dream CBD flower, Widow Cheese flower and a Hash Sampler. small u.jpg Products: CB Dream CBD from Kootenay Botanicals – Indica Hybrid – (AAAA) Visual: Wow! Very beautiful visually! Tons of big Trichomes in and out and cool bright greens and dark purple/black leaves. Nose: It had a very earthy nose at first but when I opened it up I got a really nice sort of berry sweetness. Roll: It rolled great. It almost felt dry because of all the crystal. It was a little bit sticky on the inside. Taste: It had a very earthy and almost dirty taste to it. Not much of the sweetness came out. Burn: It burnt ok. Tiny bit harsh and the ash was a little bit S&P. Potency/Effects: Not really much of any THC effects. Mainly the CBD medicinal benefits from this one. Overall score – 8.7/10 (Potency and effects not taken into consideration) small 1.jpg Widow Cheese from Kootenay Botanicals – Indica – (AAA) Visual: It was a pretty light green with a bit of light brown and even yellow hairs. It had lots of crystal coverage. Pretty nice looking! Smell: Very cheesy nose to it! It a really funky cheese like a blue cheese or stinky feet, haha. Roll: It rolled up great. It almost felt a tiny bit dry but it was a bit sticky on the inside. Taste: The taste was more earthy with a bit of the funky cheese. Tiny bit harsh. Burn: Burns good. The ash was a tiny bit S&P but it was a fairly heavy smoke. Potency/Effects: I could feel it build up to a decent buzz. It was an all over kind of buzz. Overall score – 8.7/10 small 2.jpg Hash Sampler - 1 gram of each - Pink Kush Kief, BC Afghani, OH Kush Bubble Hash, Honda Z and Moroccan. I loved trying out the different types and I found all of them to be very good. My two favourites were probably the Kief and the BC Afghani. I don't get to try Hash very often so this was a nice treat for me! Overall score - 9/10 small 4.png CBD skin cream - Very nice! Not much of a smell to it and not very greasy. It seemed to last a long time too! small 5.jpg Incentive for review - Provided samples for review.

This was a nice little Hash Sampler that I got from Kootenay Botanicals. I loved trying out the different types and I found all of them to be very good. My two favourites were probably the Kief and the BC Afghani. I don't get to try Hash very often so this was a nice treat for me! 9/10 If you would like to check out the full sampling video : Youtube: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnuiUeSM5Kw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnuiUeSM5Kw) or Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/p/B\_VuJF4H-gp/](https://www.instagram.com/p/B_VuJF4H-gp/)

Animal Grease - Kootenay Botanicals - End of March

/u/PrettyDopeKits

Bag Appeal- 9/10 - Nice trichome covered nugs. Medium to large nugs. Quality trim. Nose - 10/10 - Really shows off the 'greasy' profile in the nose. Smells like an earthy hash with skunk notes. Smoke-9/10 - very resinous, a heavy earthy taste. High - 9/10 - This was my before bed pick up this order. Heavy body high with a nice relaxing effect. I will likely be taking a nap after this one. Value - 7/10 - Same thoughts as the Dosi Pop from Kootenay....High quality product with a high price tag to match. Wanted to treat myself during quarantine.

Dosi Pop - Kootenay Botanicals - End of March

/u/PrettyDopeKits

Bag Appeal- 9/10 - Nice trichome covered nugs. Medium to small sized nugs in an amber jar. Pretty solid trim job. Nose - 10/10 - This is up there with my favourite flavour profiles so I may be a bit biased. Creamy/bakery notes with a hint of funk. A very smooth smell that reminds me of vanilla. Smoke- 8/10 - Leans more to the dank/funky taste when burning. High - 9/10 - Nice and heady as a high. Defintiely a good day time smoke for myself as it is relaxing but not too sedating. Feeling creative! Value - 7/10 - High quality product with a high price tag to match. Wamted to treat myself during quarantine. Wish there were bulk discounts.

Dosi-Pop (Skookum)(Kootenay Botanicals)- March 2020

/u/Alchino23

Bag appeal is 8.5/10. Lots of trichs, a little leafier then the dosido by skookum but I can see thats from the triangle kush side of things. Dense but a little spongey.. Not too sticky. Hints of purple, blue and black. Nose 8/10 Very unique smell with hints of sweet, earthy and a little fuel. But not too much kick. I have high hopes for the smoking experience of this though will edit this and finish reviewing later tonight.

Kootenay Botanicals Review - March 2020

Thechronickid00

MoM/RetailerName Kootenay Botanicals Shipping/Packaging Shipped in a protective box and sent out from BC to Ontario in 3 quick days. Nothing was squashed and there was no odours as the products were vac sealed. Strains : Purple Chemdawg : https://i.imgur.com/DxklBUL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/EZFGl28.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1lCS3nm.jpg Absolutely a big fan of Chemdawg related strains. This sample of Purple Chemdawg introduces Grand Daddy Purple into the mix, making for some very beautiful looking buds. A combination of dark greens and light purples, blanketed in full trichome heads. A little crisp on the outside but not dry all the way through and could definitely use a little Integra/boveda love. It seems very well cured though and decently trimmed minus some sugar leaf. The aroma instantly gives off unmistakable notes of sweet grapes, reminding me of purple kush, followed by hints of diesel. When broken up, the Chemdawg takes over with a rich, nutty smell and soft grape undertones. Translates to taste very accurately with an ultra smooth and creamy smoke. I will update on the ash and burn once I try it in a joint but in a bong it was effortless to inhale. When it came to the high, it was no slouch either but it definitely had me slouched back into my couch. It was also very cerebral and focused making it the type of high ideal for show binging or gaming as it didn't make me tired despite the heavily relaxing and long lasting body effects. Widow Cheese : https://i.imgur.com/zbakXgj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/YUoajA1.jpg https://i.imgur.com/yxIdbJW.jpg This Widow Cheese from Kootenay Botanicals arrived as one dense and springy bud weighing close to 4 grams, sporting a typical cheese appearance with it's olive green colours and faded orange hairs. Not going to win any insane bag appeal points like most cheese strains, but surely makes up for it in trichome coverage as it's just littered with full, undisturbed heads. Also quite sticky as well. There's the woody-cheese type profiles, and the pungent, funky type cheese profiles, and this one is definitely the latter. Sharp, rank notes of aged cheddar, with a faint berry back-end. Very cheesy and acidic, although entices you to keep smelling. Translates surprisingly well to the taste considering most cheese strains don't, leaving a soft and subtle cheese taste on exhale but not in a overwhelming sense. Smooth hitting and clean burning with a light coloured ash. The high is extremely heady and begins instantly with it's uplifting, social, and euphoric effects. Very spacey and stoney, making it insanely easily to drift away with your thoughts and can be a bit too much for some. Slight physical effects kick in eventually but more relaxing than sedating. People that love cheese strains know all about the high it offers and this one was a great example. Blue Jagger : https://i.imgur.com/BtOxHqr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/dEgSRcC.jpg https://i.imgur.com/sS5DzQX.jpg A cross of LA Confidential, Blue Dream and an unknown strain, this Blue Jagger is part of Kootenay Botanicals' Craft Series. Tremendous bag appeal on this flower, with extremely long stalks topped with milky trichome heads. Very light green in colour, sporting wild orange pistils, and a great trim. Tightly structured buds with a moderate moisture level, not being dry nor sticky. The only category where this flower didn't stand out was the aroma and flavour. A little muted at first and improved slightly upon grinding but still nothing too special. A subtle combination of berries and spices with hints of earthy lemon. The taste was similar and subtle as well, although very smooth smoking. Light salt and pepper ash. I really enjoyed the high on this Blue Jagger and felt it was heavily Blue Dream dominated as it offered a plethora of relaxing and mood enhancing effects. Didn't leave me feeling one bit sedated or fatigued, making it a good time day smoke. A bit on the pricy side considering it's profile doesn't match it's looks and potency in my humble opinion. Pink Kush Kief : https://i.imgur.com/gpBTJxU.jpg https://i.imgur.com/AwaN6X4.jpg This is the type of kief I actually enjoy. When it's fresh, sticky, trichome heads clumping together, vs older, oxidized kief. Smelled and tasted exactly like pink kush ; gassy and floral, and made for a great bowl topper over some flower or hash. Adds a potent indica kick to anything. This was a sample review

I was thinking that too but it's how they have it spelled on the site and even on the craft jars lol so I don't know tbh. Surprisingly it doesn't involve Jager in it's genetics
