Customer Service (Communication, Delivery Speed Etc.) - 10/10
I’ve placed numerous orders from Top Shelf BC since they started up a few months ago and have been nothing but impressed with their customer service and communication speed. I mainly communicate with them via Discord and the ...gentleman who runs the show (I am NOT calling you Harry) is always quick to respond. Typically within an hour or two but never longer than a day.
What’s really fantastic to see is their ability to incorporate customer feedback into the products/prices they offer. When they first launched, there were no multi-ounce discounts nor any mix-and-match products. To my surprise, both of these options were incorporated within weeks giving options for both bulk buyers and casual users just looking to try a few strains out.
I might be lucky living in Manitoba as I’ve only had 1 out of 15 orders take longer than 2-3 business days during the pandemic but Top Shelf kept that status quo going as I’ve never had to wait longer than 2 business days from them coming from BC.
In terms of ratings, I’ve had about 7 strains from them and each and every assessment is bang-on and this honesty is apparent when asking for recommendations if you’re unsure of what to buy.
Bag Appeal - 9/10
Upon opening my first bag, I was greeted with a pleasant site of medium, round buds that are firm to the touch. The trim was close to being flawless with ample crystal coverage and a lovely hue that ranged from lime to forest green. Not a single speck of intentional shake was to be found either. For an AAA+, I was pleasantly surprised at how good this looked! Weight was 28.6g which I am DEFINITELY not complaining about.
Smell/Taste - 9/10
GAS WARNING! While it wasn’t a punch to the face like a $280 quad, the fuel aroma here cannot be denied and permeated my apartment with the smell shortly after opening it up. I also got a bit of cream and floral notes which have flourished in a jar with an Integra Boost over the last couple of weeks. I’m not too familiar with the characteristic of one of the parents (Blood Rose) but this mixture of aromas are right up my alley.
These scents transfer over to the smoke where, again, it will feel like you’re drinking out of the nozzle at the gas station. The smoke is thicker than Kyle Lowry’s backside and, while I don’t smoke joints so I can’t comment on oil rings, it burned almost snow white in my bong.
Potency - 9/10
I haven’t been smacked in the head this badly since I bought my ex-girlfriend a knife for Christmas. The initial blast immediately made me stop any complex thought and say ’Whoa’ to myself like Keanu Reeves. So much so, I’ve been struggling to write the last half of this review. Of course, being a heavy indica, I was also greeted by a warm wave of relaxation that is beckoning me to move from my desk over to my couch and eat the leftover pho in my fridge. My past experiences with this strain can let you know the high lasts longer than a marathon and, while not a knock-out, is most definitely recommended for closer to the end of your evening.
Value - 9/10
List price on this is currently $180/oz. I grabbed my original oz a few weeks ago with a couple of different ozs which, using their amazing multi-ounce discount, dropped the price to just $153/oz which would make this a 10/10 if it were the price on its’ own! Considering the time of year and pandemic situation, the regular price puts this at a 9/10. Again, the rating was spot on and I would personally put this as an AAAA-.
I was so enamoured with this strain, I threw in another q of this in my recent mix-and-match oz to stock up and didn’t have to pay an upcharge for the premium quality.
As a side note, to someone visiting their site for the first time, their pricing system can appear all over place as only some qualify for the multi-ounce discount and you need to pay a bit more for certain quad level selections in your $155/oz mix-and-match. Once you get used to it, you realize there are tremendous deals to be found and you just have to play around with what you’re looking for to find the best fit. Failing that, just get a hold of them on Discord or shoot them an email and they’ll gladly lend you a hand.
Overall - 46/50
I’ve been looking to wittle my MOM list down over the past few months and try to stick with a few regulars who have my back and Top Shelf BC has quickly risen to the head of the pack. Their friendly approach to communication is refreshing and honest and this is well represented by the products they offer. Typically, I try to limit myself to quads but I’m glad I decided to take a gamble on this strain as it’s a welcome addition to my family of heavy indicas I like to keep around. BUY THIS NOW!
P.S. My phone camera sucks
