Online-Dispensary.ca (I'm not kidding, that's actually the name.)
Overall rating out of 10: 7/10
Sign Up:
Same standard signup process as most other MOMs. Can't complain.
Ordering & Pricing:
Ordering was smooth and straightforward, the site is pretty well setup and easy to navigate.
Pricing is pretty good, they have budget stuff for $100-120 an ounce, and some top quality stuff for 200+ an ounce.
Communication:
Communication was great, I really liked how simple Jose made everything, and how generous he(they) is(are)
All of my communication was done through E-mail, and I could always expect a prompt and friendly reply.
Packaging:
I definitely think packaging could've been much better.
Came in a standard mailer, with the black bags stuffed inside. God forbid it accidentally opened during transport, these very noticeable, labeled black bags would've been super obvious.
Should have at least some sort of vaccuum sealed bag.

Pot of Gold
Opening the bag, Pot of Gold doesn't seem to have that pungent aroma many high quality strains should. As you get towards the center of a nug the smell becomes more more noticeable. A nice subtle citrusy aroma, with a great earthy taste. I didn't think this strain would be as good as it is, but it absolutely exceeded my expectations.
There's a pretty burn, with clean ash. A little bit harsh on the exhale, but nothing game-changing.
I'm not sure what it's rated on the site, so I can't tell you how their rating compares to my own.
I personally would rate this strain a 6/10. (AA+) It loses some points for the smell being fairly light, and the smoke being kinda harsh. I think it's a strain that didn't quite hit it's full potential.
G13
For this strain, I was sent mostly popcorn nugs, which is totally acceptable in a free sample, but with how beautiful these nugs are, I wish I had a bigger one for the sake of pictures.
I think that if you had this G13 in a bag of some nice sized buds, it'd be one of the nicest looking strains I've personally ever seen.
The high was strong, albeit not exceedingly long lasting. Smooth smoke, with just a touch of harshness that leaves a bit of a tickle in the throat.
I'm in love with the color, and even though the smell isn't super strong, it's got a nice light earthy kush smell that I'm not opposed to.
I'd give this strain 7.5/10 AAA it's all around a pretty nice strain, but I can't get over how nice the color is.
Durban Poison
I was given this strain specifically because I asked for it. (Durban Poison is easily one of my top 3 favorite strains)
This was a tad disappointing, it's not the AAAA Durban that I've seen, but it's not bad either.
It has a clear sativa bud structure, is trimmed very well and smells like Durban Poison should smell, even if it's a little less pungent than I'd like.
The taste wasn't incredibly strong, but it definitely came through while smoking. I loved the nice smooth burn on this one.
It had a nice clear minded sativa buzz, that lasted 45ish minutes for me personally.
I'd say this is also 7/10 AAA I definitely won't complain about a nice AAA Durban Poison.
Love Potion
This is the least appealing strain of the batch. (Also the cheapest of the 6 received strains)
It's super leafy, not well trimmed at all.
The smoke is pretty harsh, albeit nice tasting.
I won't get into too much detail on this one, as it's clearly a lower quality budget strain, and it has a pretty nice high so I'd say it works well as budget weed.
On the bright side, it came with this giant nug that looks awesome, and earns itself a point just for that.
I'll give this 5/10 AA with the extra point for the monster nug.
Hawaiian
This strain was honestly better than I thought it'd be.
I love the fruity, berrylike smell and flavor, was a very nice surprise how pungent the smell was.
The trim could be a little better, and the smoke is a little harsh.
Nice uplifting short-medium length sativa high.
Solid 7.5/10 AAA strain.
Laughing Buddha
Now this strain is the definition of quality.
Top notch trim, great cure, super well grown.
The taste is wonderful, almost sweet yet earthy, and the smell is even nicer.
Great high that had me playing video games until 3am.
Not much else to say about the Laughing Buddha. This strain is top notch, and I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a high quality experience.
9/10 AAAA
Incentive for Customers:
Free shipping over $99 and they offer a "Price Match Guarantee" which means that if you find an identical strain (name and quality rating) on another site for a lower price, they'll match it. No idea if they'll keep their word on that one or not, but it's a cool concept that'd be worth a try.
Incentive for Review:
This entire sample pack was my review incentive. Extremely generous of them.
Notes:
I honestly couldn't believe the name when I first stumbled upon these guys. It's kinda like that one dude standing outside of high school with a weird mustache, and a jean jacket who swears he isn't a cop. He's probably a cop.
In all seriousness, this site exceeded my expectations. The prices match the quality for the most part, and if all of their AAAA strains are as good as the laughing buddha, you can't go wrong with quality from the Online-Dispensary.
And their name, omg, I thought "buy weed online shop" was a winner but this is also pretty great.
