Sign Up: Quick and easy with no ID required.
Ordering & Pricing: Pricing is very good overall, with a wide range of price points available. Ounces of flower range from 78 to 270 dollars, and there are currently 22 strains in stock. There are a decent range of concentrates available, all of which seem to be either a good deal or a fair one. They didn't have a huge amount of edibles when I made my previous order, but they seem to have even less now, with only two types in stock as of the writing of this review (both hard candies). However, this could easily be a temporary thing, as they've had a somewhat wider selection in the recent past.
Communication: I didn't communicate with them on this order, but my previous experience in this area was excellent. The order was sent out the same day I ordered and arrived in the same amount of time as my last order, not counting an extra day for the long weekend.
Packaging: Very good. Packaged in a sealed bag within a nondescript white box. The flower came in a heavy duty resealable bag. The concentrates all came in their manufacturer's packaging, which I'll go into more detail about in the individual reviews below.
Products / Photos: My order consisted of the following: an ounce of Tangie, a sativa-dominant hybrid currently selling for 110 dollars per ounce, one gram of Cannaisseur CO2 Oil, one gram of Dream Strains Budder, one gram of Darkside Rosin, and two grams of Cannaisseur Kief. I was also sent a free pre-rolled joint of Nirvana (a sativa strain) and a free package of Miss Munchies Candies (40mg total, blueberry flavour). The total cost after the 20% off CDNMOM20 coupon was 204 dollars with free shipping.
First, the Tangie. This is a damn impressive strain. It smells somewhat like tropical fruit with a bit of a citrus edge to it, and every inch is covered in frosty crystals. I'm truly amazed that I got this stuff for 88 dollars an ounce after the coupon. That's what I paid for my ounce of Comatose on my last order, which was already an incredible deal, but this is even better weed in my opinion (though I do prefer sativas in general, so I'm biased to a degree). It burns incredibly well in a joint and produces a nice, white ash. The effects are what you'd expect from a mostly-sativa hybrid, with a heady high that doesn't have much of a burnout. I can't emphasize this enough: if you like sativas, you like to roll joints, or both, drop 88 bucks on an ounce of this stuff with the coupon code. They still have it and it's so worth it.
The Cannaisseur CO2 oil comes in a syringe contained in a plastic sleeve, which is great because it's way too goopy to use easily in any other way. The syringe allows you to dispense it in a fairly precise way, though I did have one semi-disaster where the syringe suddenly let a whole bunch out at once and I barely saved some from being wasted when it flowed down the side of my Saionara. Occasional syringe issues aside, this stuff is absolutely amazing and genuinely some of the best oil I've ever smoked. It tastes phenomenal, almost like a finely aged whiskey or something similar, with a kind of chocolatey edge to it. I can't even really do it justice with this description. The effects are great too, nice and strong, and while the effects lean to the indica overall, it's certainly not without sativa-like effects either. I've had it in my oil pen and as a bowl topper and I was impressed both times. I have to thank forum user gandalfe for advising me in my last review thread to try this stuff. I'm not sure I would have otherwise and I would have been missing out. I don't think it's overpriced at 40 dollars, but for the 32 I paid, I'd call this an amazing deal.
The Dream Strains budder is pretty good stuff too. It comes in a little glass container with a plastic screw-on lid, and there's a plastic tamper-proof seal you have to remove before first use. It's easily the most stable concentrate I've ever smoked, and you can literally just pick it up and toss it wherever you want it to go. It melts down into liquid the second heat is applied and gives a more heady high than any other concentrate I have, very clear-headed and easy to function with. I will say that while I enjoy the stuff, I feel like it's very slightly overpriced at 45 dollars pre-discount, since I've gotten equally strong effects from cheaper oil even just in this order. However, I only paid 36 dollars after the coupon and considering that I used to pay 40 a gram for worse stuff pre-MoM, I certainly can't complain too much.
The Darkside Rosin is really impressive. It comes packaged exactly the same as the Dream Strains Budder. It's very goopy to work with, but unlike every other type of similarly-textured concentrate I've ever smoked, it's only somewhat sticky. Once you've got it out of the container, you can pretty much just roll it up in your fingers and do what you like with it. It will stick to you a bit, but not nearly as much as you might expect when looking at it. The taste is so light that it's hard to really describe, but the flavour is incredibly clean. In fact, it's the cleanest-tasting concentrate I've ever had. It immediately makes your head heavy and transitions into a nice body high when vaped in an oil pen. A gram cost me 28 dollars after the discount, but even at the original 35 dollars, I'd say this stuff is worth picking up.
The Cannaisseur Kief comes in a plastic screw-top container. To describe it, well... it's kief. Not sure what else to say really. The effects are potent, as you'd expect, but pretty non-specific, probably because it's a mix of a bunch of strains. For the ten bucks a gram it cost me, it's definitely worthwhile, and I'd also happily buy it for the original 12.50.
The Nirvana pre-roll was enjoyable, as I knew it would be since I received the same pre-roll the last time I ordered. It's a solid sativa strain that gives a nice, heady high. I did find that the filter was rolled a bit too narrow to smoke well, so I had to snip off the end to get a wider mouthpiece to draw off. However, that's just an issue with the prerolled Raw tips they used, and it's barely even a complaint worth mentioning (especially since it was free and easily-remedied).
The blueberry Miss Munchies candies are something I'd be pretty unlikely to buy, but they're fun when I get them for free. They're pretty weak for a heavy user like me at only 10mg per candy (4 per pack) and at 12 dollars per pack, that's just not cost-effective. However, as I said, that's not to say I don't enjoy them. They give a bit more of a buzz than you'd expect for how much THC is in them and the taste is pretty dang good. They do get a bit more of that bitter distillate taste as you get further into the candy, but it never gets too bad. I will say that I preferred the orange flavoured candies they sent last time, but that's probably just a personal thing.
Incentive for Customers: Free shipping over 100 dollars and a free joint with every order. They also seem to be sending a free package of candies with every order currently, as I've received one both times I've ordered. Coupon code CDNMOM20 for 20% off every order, not just your first.
Incentive for Review: None
Notes: This is my second order from BC Bud Dispatch and I'm just as impressed as I was the first time. Their products are well-priced and very high quality, and the freebies are pretty great too. I can't recommend them enough. I want to note just for the record that this review is somewhat delayed. I've been working all week and I wanted time to adequately test all of the products before posting this.
Photo Notes: The first pic is obviously the Tangie. The second pic has the Cannaisseur CO2 oil in the syringe at the top, then the bottom row is (from left to right) the Darkside Rosin, the Dream Strains Budder, and the Cannaisseur Kief. The free joint of Nirvana and the candies have been consumed already and are not pictured.
