Sesh - 2g each of 5 strains test order

1
Sesh Cannabis

Overall rating out of 10: 9/10

Sign Up:
Very easy. No ID upload required - just your basic contact information. No waiting on an approval email.

Ordering & Pricing:
Clear and straightforward. Add items to your cart, then when you go to checkout you just add any coupon codes. When you checkout you get an order number and the e-transfer details, then you just send the e-transfer to the provided email with your order number.

The pricing is fair, and generally in line with other non-budget MOMs. The stuff I ordered varied from $10 to $11.50 per gram. However, they have frequent sales (last weekend they had a bunch of strains at $8/g) and often have coupons. I used a coupon for 15% off and free xpresspost shipping, which effectively brought my price down to $9.4/g shipped.

Communication:
Can't comment much on this personally, as I haven't needed to contact them directly. But when I placed my order and made payment I got confirmation via email right away, and got my tracking information via email in 3.5 hours. That's pretty good.

As for more general communication, they send out emails every time there is a sale, and they seem to be active on this forum and reddit, so I would expect a fairly prompt response. They did include a handwritten note saying "hope you enjoy" which made me smile. Because yes, I was about to enjoy!

Packaging:
The flower itself was packed in sealed, resealable bags. They're unusual - they seem like they are thick wax paper or something. Maybe just a heavy paper with a plastic coating on the inside. They have a ziploc style seal, and tearaway notches to open the bag initially.

My 5 little bags were inside a sturdy corrugated box with a flip-open top, which was in turn inside a sealed generic plastic mailing pouch.

As noted above, I got free xpresspost shipping. This was shipped on the same Friday I placed my order, and arrived on Tuesday (Monday was a stat holiday).

There was no smell from the package. When I opened up the box, there was a bit of a cannabis smell, so the little baggies aren't 100% scent-proof, but there was no smell from the overall package as mailed.

Here are pics of the packaging:

I ordered 2 grams each of OG Kush, Moby Dick, Alaskan Thunderfuck, UK Cheese, and Charlotte's Web. I haven't actually tried them all, but I will be providing my comments on each eventually. I may change my overall rating depending on how that goes.

So far I have tried the Charlotte's Web and OG Kush.

Now, first of all, it seems like Sesh plays it safe (or generous) with quantities. All were over weight, and the Charlotte's Web actually weighed in at 3g.

All but the ATF were just a single, large, well-trimmed bud. And this is quality weed. These are dense, sticky buds that seem to be cured just right. They don't just crumble like a lot of weed does - it actually has to be pulled apart. They have unique, interesting smells and don't smell like hay or grass or whatever. It seems like they've been humidity-controlled very well, with a nice, even cure.

I used a vaporizer for both strains I tried, and they tasted fantastic.

The Charlotte's Web was indredibly dense. It is a robust, full bud with lots of red/orange/brown in the colour. The flavour was incredible, which I didn't expect from a high-CBD strain, which I've heard are usually harsh and bad tasting due to being largely ruderalis-derived. It actually reminded my wife and I of Earl Grey tea. It seriously tasted like a strong tea with bergamot - kind of earthy, with a floral component.

This is a very low THC (0.5%) and high CBD (14.1%) strain and is definitely more medicinal than recreational, though it is still enjoyable. The main effect for me was feeling relaxed, with very mild physical effects (sort of a tingly feeling in both head and body). It lowered my blood pressure, wiped away the lingering stress I had after a busy day at work, and eliminated some lingering back pain. Definitely a useful strain, though again, it won't get you high.

The OG Kush was also very nice, and it got me proper high (of course). It wasn't as dense as the Charlotte's Web and was greener in colour, with an more old-school appearance and more open structure (still dense for the strain). It was very sticky. This bud was a little squished when I took it out, but that may have been my own doing - after I initially opened the box and looked at the individual packages, I kind of squashed them getting them back in the box. Anyways, it was still all in one piece and a beautiful bud.

This had a distinctive strong earthy flavour, with a bit of woodiness/plantiness and some pine. Also very nice. This one would be amazing in a blunt with a nice tobacco wrap. The high was very pleasant - relaxing, uplifting, without getting super heavy and sleepy like a strong indica or confusing and paranoid like a strong sativa. Very balanced high, a great all-around option. It didn't make us sleepy, but when we went to bed towards the tail end we slept like babies all night. This one was listed at 19% THC and that sounds about right.

I can't say how the product smoked because I vaped it, but the ABV was a nice uniform medium brown for both strains I've tried so far. Based on how it felt and how it vaped, I'd expect these to smoke extremely well. The vapor was very clean tasting and the ABV came out evenly toasted, which should indicate no humidity/cure issues.

I'm really looking forward to trying the others. Very high quality. Also, these are just regular product, not listed as "craft" or "AAAA".

Notes:
I've been an on-and-off smoker for 12 years or so, but I'm fairly new to MOMs, just starting in the last year. Most of what I used to smoke was low-to-medium quality, and I only had what I'd truly call AAAA weed a couple of times in my life before starting using MOMs. So I'm kind of new to very high quality weed. But this stuff is definitely top tier weed.
