About a week ago CCS contacted me via the HighIntel discord server asking if I would be interested in reviewing some of their products.
They ship out of the GTA and I am in Ontario so the sample...s arrived in under under 24 hours which is always great.
I’ve been hesitant to use Ont based MoM’s as the quality is generally lacking and the product is dry. This time I was rather impressed to find 5 strains, all appear to be properly dried and cured and were not at all dry upon receipt.
The 5 samples I got were El Jefe, GSC, MK Ultra, Fruity Pebbles and Gelato.
All of the stains would range from aaa-aaa+, imo. Thr GSC was the least exciting. Not the best rendition of the strain, overall commercial feel about this one. The El Jefe, Gelato and Fruity Pebbles were the real stars. El Jefe was a rather heavy hitter that melted the pain away and left me glued to my chair. It was by far the stand out. The fruity pebbles and gelato both looked, smelled and tasted great but they just weren’t up there with the El Jefe in potency.
Over all I was very happy with the product and the communication with the CCS rep on the HighIntel discord server and I if I were to ever make a small order of just a couple oz’s I would definitely consider these guys as it’ll be quick and quality
Around the start of Sept GetKush got in contact with me on the HighIntel discord server and we discussed samples in exchange for a review.
They asked me to choose what I would like so I browsed the site and decided on Gucci OG, Red Congo, Viol...ator, and Zeus OG, 4 of their higher tier strains.
Pack came, everything was fine, vac sealed as it should be. Flower came in plastic pill bottles which I’m not a fan of and there was a flashy promotional insert inside the box which I also don’t care for. I like my weed to come as discreetly and no frills as possible. Ziploc, sharpie and a vac seal please.
Anyways, unfortunately all the flower was overly dry and most was a rather harsh smoke. The Red Congo was actually above average and it helped me finally finish insulating my garage. Nice and spicy with a real kick in the ass high.
The next one I would reach for would be the Violator. This was probably the nicest looking and smelling of the 4. Also quite a heavy hitter.
The Zeus and the Gucci weren’t overly memorable and kind of blended into one another. Both heavier OG crosses with OG flavours.
Of the 4, if I were to re-order I would definitely grab the Red Congo and the Violator. The Gucci and Zeus I would pass on.
Overall I’d give a 7/10. Humidity issue would need to be rectified if I were to place an order but my dealings with them on the HighIntel discord server were great and I wouldn’t have an issue recommending them if someone asked. They’re rep is extremely responsive and a very nice person to chat with, as well
