[Vendor Reviews] NorthwestCannabisandConcentrates, Karmaceuticals, Medibuds, and StrattonOakmontBud

NorthwestCannabisandConcentrates - Hansa

Product: 1 Oz of Platinum GSC - $220 + $7 shipping

Notes: First time trying some GSC and I'm definitely impressed. This batch was from about a month ago.

Shipping: Domestic USA - Fast, 2-3 days. Always what you want to see.

Communication: None needed

Stealth: MBB and 2 layers of vac sealing. Good for domestic.

Weight: .3gs over. All good with me.

Packaging: Came more compressed than other vendors I've had. No problem these frosty nugs apart though.

Methods of Consumption: Bongs (Manifest Glass Works and HVY Glass) and Vapes (Arizer Air and DaVinci Ascent)

Aesthetic: A+ ~ Gorgeous. Longer stringier medium size buds that sparkle with hints of purple.

Aroma: A / A-- ~ Very nice nose. The beauty of the aroma is in the subtleties of the smell. Doesn't utterly stink though. The colorful taste came out well in the vape.

Potency: A ~ Gets me nice and baked. Can definitely feel the THC in the hits. Not the biggest hitter I've ever had but the qualitative effects of the high are super pleasant and the smoke is enjoyable smooth. More of an uplifting creative sativa. Good bud for toking anytime.

Price Value: A-- ~ A solid deal for some very high class eye catching bud. Naturally their are more cost effective discount options to go with though.

Overall: A ~ Great first experience with NWlongname. They have good selection of bud and concentrates (haven't tried those yet) at a solid price with quick service. There's a reason you've probably seen a bunch of reviews for them - they are on point with their operation.

Karmaceuticals - Hansa

Product: 1/8th Sunset Sherbert Intro Sale + 1g Trinity Shatter - $10 + $35 + $7 shipping

Notes: Totally new vendor. Saw him just open up shop and decided to test the waters. Solid first experience.

Shipping: Domestic USA - Not the fastest but alright. Was around 4 or 5 days.

Communication: Was quick to respond. He had some issues with getting combined shipping to work so he ended up throwing in the eighth sale for free! Definitely a nice thing for him to do.

Stealth: MBB and double vac seal. All good for domestic.

Weight: the bud was .32g over and the shatter was .08gs over. All good here.

Packaging: Bud was slightly compressed. Barely an issue though, especially cuz its only an eighth. Shatter was easy to peel off the paper.

Methods of Consumption: Same bongs and the dab rig (dhgate d-cycler, elbow, quartz nail, also e-nail)

-- Sunset Sherbert --

Aesthetic: B ~ Definitely meh looking. Small darker colored buds. Each nug is nicely dense though.

Aroma: A-- ~ The nose surprised me on this. Definitely fruity. I liked smelling this one. Respectable for budget.

Potency: B+ ~ Not a huge ripper. Not super smooth smoke but decent. Nice high overall. Not like upper tier bud though.

Price Value: A-- ~ They currently have ounces at $160 which seems like an an ok deal. I personally think MillyWilly's bottom nugs are better (and I think its $10 cheaper too) if they have any left. For a $10 eighth, I am definitely satisfied.

-- Trinity Shatter --

Aesthetic: A ~ This stuff breaks nicely. Thickish clear amber. Definitely looks like quality.

Aroma: A ~ Great flavor. Unlike any I've tried and tricky to describe. Very smooth too.

Potency: A ~ This stuff will hit you good too. Mixed head and body high. Very pleasant.

Price Value: A-- / A ~ I got this when it was originally $35/g, but I think he has since upped it to $40 or $45/g. At $35 its definitely worth picking up.

Overall: A-- ~ Solid first experience with Karmaceuticals. Bud seemed like a good deal to pick up and it was and I am happy I decided to try their premium Trinity shatter 'cause its honestly pretty fire.

Medibuds - Direct Site

Product: 3gs of Sugar Cookie Live Resin - $135 ($45/g) + $7 shipping

Notes: Live resin is pretty incredible and this is only my second time trying it. Only other vendor who's resin I've sampled is InternationalDabCo.

Shipping: Domestic USA - Fast, 2-3 days. Good shit.

Communication: None needed

Stealth: MBB and vac sealing. Fine for domestic.

Weight: I can't weigh this stuff for shit.

Packaging: So I honestly hate the packaging that is usual with Live Resin. Both times I've gotten it have come on standard parchment paper but with Live Resin it is really a bitch to deal with. The paper is ridiculously sticky and consequently getting those last dabs is a pain in the ass even with freezing it. Trying to scrape up those last dabs can even tear the paper too resulting in more mess So for any vendors out there with live resin, I recommend at least some sort of small container. Live Resin is already a more expensive/premium concentrate relatively speaking so I feel it makes sense too.

Methods of Consumption: Same dab rig

Aesthetic: A / A-- ~ Slightly darker than the other Live Resin I've got before. Looks like dark gold crumbly sticky goodness.

Aroma: A ~ Strong floral sweet flavor on the exhale. Great taste overall.

Potency: A+ ~ This stuff makes me tear up. Definitely a ripper for sure and makes me cough hard. Im taking small dabs with this. Super baked cerebrally and bodily.

Price Value: A-- ~ Medi is serving up this stuff under the usual $50-$60/g I see live resin going for which is clutch. I wouldn't call it a deal because you are paying for premium concentrate at $45 but its definitely a fair price at below what I see usually for this product.

Overall: A ~ First order with a true OG vendor and everything went smoothly. I can see why he is regarded for his speed, consistency, and quality. As far as who has better Live Resin, I am not sure. I very much enjoyed InternationalDabCo's (it was only a sample) and I even think the flavor was better on that one (really nice Sour D taste). I'd say Medi's hit harder though.

StrattonOakmontBud - Direct Deal (he's on AB as well as a few other markets)

Product: 3.5gs BHO shatter + 3.5gs of Golden Honey shatter + 1/2 oz of Super Silver Haze - $100 (~$28.5/g) + $125 (~$35.7/g) + $110 + free shipping

Notes: Two successful orders with SOB. First was for the BHO, second for the other things. The first BHO is at his lowest price point and the Golden Honey is the next level above that. He's also got "Top Shelf" listed at $150 an eighth which I might have to try sometime.

Shipping: Domestic USA - About 4 days both times. Acceptable for me.

Communication: Decent comms. Confirmed with me decently quick. For my BHO order he ended up giving me a different strain so I ended up doubly smoking on GSC with NWCC's order, but quality is there. I only wished he would've given me a heads up cause I probably would have requested a different strain.

Stealth: MBB and double vac seal. All good for domestic.

Weight: BHO was .05gs over, Golden Honey was .03gs under, and SSH was .4gs over

Packaging: Dabs came off the paper easily and bud wasn't too compressed.

Methods of Consumption: Same bongs, vapes, dab rig, and also dab pens (Standard C and Dr. Dabber Aura)

-- BHO shatter (Girl Scout Cookies) --

Aesthetic: A-- / B+ ~ Goldish brown pull and snap. Smooth texture. Looks alright.

Aroma: A-- ~ Solid flavor with some subtlety. Not the most full bodied flavor, only slightly dabby, but good.

Potency: A-- ~ Decently smooth and potent.

Price Value: A / A-- ~ I think $28/g at the eighth price point is a good deal. Beats some $30/g dabs I've had like MagicLamp and WilliamShatner.

-- Golden Honey Shatter (Dutch Treat) --

Aesthetic: A ~ Goldish amber and firm. Pieces can fracture off like shatter but it also has a slight pull and snap feel. Easy to work with. Looks nice and clear in the light.

Aroma: A ~ You can taste that classic Dutch Treat flavor on the exhale. Piney and delicious.

Potency: A ~ Nice cerebral high, strong potency, and qualitatively very enjoyable.

Price Value: B+ / A-- ~ At $25 more an eighth than the BHO, its a little pricier, but he's even got better stuff for $25 more. Its a solid deal for some good quality stuff nonetheless.

-- Super Silver Haze --

Aesthetic: A-- / B+ ~ Mostly medium size nugs with good density. Trim could be a better. The weed is a mix of dark and light green with nice orangey brown hair coverage. Decent bits of frostiness here and there.

Aroma: A-- ~ This stuff has a pretty loud notably strong smell, but personally its not my favorite. Maybe a bit pungent / sour for my taste. Certainly not bad though. It smokes better than it vapes in my opinion.

Potency: A-- ~ Enjoyable smoke, more towards a head high but pleasant in all aspects. Good bud to relax and unwind. Doesn't hit as hard in the vape as I would hope.

Price Value: A-- / B+ ~ $110 seems like a ok price for this, SOB described it as "very decent indoor" and I would say its alright. Maybe their are better deals looking at the ounce level but for a half I'm satisfied with it.

Pics: http://imgur.com/a/stC8B

Overall: A-- / A ~ Consistent service, good quality and selection, solid price, good stealth, and he's been around forever. Classic vendor all around.

Great reviews, I've been wanting to try strattonoakmont as a personal concentrates buyer. I've used nwcc and medi and have been super pleased with both
