Covered in trichomes, Humboldt Pie is a beauty. Her bud structure is dense and I swear has even more crystals on the inside than the outside (I should have taken a longer video).
She smells like Pepé LePew was baked in a pie; subtle hints of dough, skunk and sweet berries are caught on t...he smooth inhale.
The flower provided a beautiful oil ring in joint form along with white ash.
King Louis XIII is a heavy hitter. Medium in size, the buds are dense, sticky and pungent. Both the smell and the taste are skunky and gassy. It is definitely meant for the evening.
The flower is listed as being on their website for over 45 days but I did not find it dry in the slightest ...and it was very flavourful. (Its on clearance for 139$).
Overall, 9/10
They also threw in a gram of Obama Runtz, Humboldt Pie, paper, lighter and a glass tip.
Both this and the Halitosis Breath arrived in 3 days.
This was my first order with MB and it won't be my last.
The value of the flower is incredible. It was my first purchase so I got 20% off, the total coming to 116$ for an ounce of smalls.
The average size of the buds range from the size of a dime to popped popcorn, almost f...illing my mason jar. I was expecting the nugs to be smaller.
Trim job is great :) . The flower is completely covered in trichomes and looks beautiful upclose. The nose of the flower is a bit mute but I catch a scent of onions.
It burned super smooth and had a white ash (it burned cleaner than the paper). I coughed maybe twice during the whole joint, noticing how smooth it is.
It has a great cure. My only complaint is it is a little dryer than I anticipated so I popped them in an integra/boveda which returned some moisture and flavour!
Overall 9/10 .
Hmu if you've never tried them and would like a referral :)
For 200$, I feel completely ripped off. There are supposed to be medium nugs mixed in. I have 1. The rest is popcorn and smalls. Lots of dark green leaves as well as brown leaves just laying in the bag.
Absolutely no customer service since placing my order. NEVER ordering from them again....
2/10
***edit: I weighed everything. It was 27.69 grams and 1.67 grams was leaves from bad trimming, so 26.02 grams of ”nug”. My hands after dealing with the shake/leaves smelled very much like stems, an almost woody/barn/hay smell. As for the smell of the bud, it is muted, maybe 60% of it is coming through. I'm not sure if that is because of how dry the flower is or what. Plus there was no boveda/integra...
AS FOR THE SMOKE: I rolled a pinner with a bud (crumbled between thumb and finger) and some crystals from the shake, I could feel a nice stone setting in as I inhaled. Unfortunately there is not much flavour, but I did get stoned. It burned grey/salt and pepper.
Also, the fact I am charged 20$ for shipping and it literally says it cost 9$ on my package, (along with the senders name as it appears on their credit card)
Overall first impression: 2/10 (I was shocked) Smell of flower: 4/10 (muted nose) Taste of smoke: 4/10 (hits smooth but there isn't really any flavour) Sales/Customer Service: 0/10 (weighed less than it was supposed to, very slow to ship, charged double the price of shipping, I paid for ”JANUARY 22 DROP Pink Punchsicle will be coming with regular buds” yet I received all popcorn buds with loose stems and brown leaves, the fact that a few days later the Purple Punchsicle smalls were dropped by 60$), the fact that I have had no responses to my emails....
So many red flags...
Overall I think the 2/10 is a fairly generous rating.
My whole house smells like gas as soon as I opened the bag. The high is heavy but not over the top. It tastes like sweet gas mixed with berries? It is delicious....
10/10 flavour 10/10 high
It is absolutely coated in trichomes, can't go wrong
This stuff is crazy amazing. Super gassy, just stinks up the whole house. Flavourwise it is gassy and sweet. Regular price 280$ an oz, I got it for 50$ due to all the coupons I had from the mendo breath and citrus farmer. THANK YOU HGA!!!
I have a picture of my first joint and it was half... trichomes..... this stuff is killer....
I would have to say this specific order qualifies for 10/10.
I got this as a sample in a past order, it was a bit dry, so I bought a HQ instead of the usual ounce.
This looked awesome but again, it was bone dry. It definitely needs to get beefed up with an integra.
Taste wise, it's mild. It is loaded with trichomes. I sampled a 1 pap...e, I got ripped. I figure it would be a great strain to mix with due to how dry it is (sprinkle this on top of your super sticky ;) ) . This strain hits hard so use with caution.
7.5/10 . Fingers crossed some flavour comes back with an integra, if so it'll gain 1 point.
I want to say similar flavour profile to the greasy monkey, except Rocket Star has more petrol taste and less grease/chemical taste. Nice gassy aftertaste. Medium sized nugs which are denser than they appear. More salt than pepper ash.
Overall, there is room for improvement but personally... I am satisfied with it. 8.5/10
