SpeedGreens: AAAA oz (Acapulco Gold, Platinum Blackberry, Citrique, Black Roses) & Concentrate Variety Pack

1
MOM Name: SpeedGreens

Overall rating out of 10: 9

Sign Up: Very straightforward. ID needed but you can blank out the extra stuff

Ordering & Pricing: This is my second time ordering from SpeedGreens and it was a little more difficult than last time. Site was misbehaving when I went to place my order as there was some issue with the free promotional weed. A couple emails back and forth with their team and everything was good and I was able to place my order. Their weed pricing isn't crazy cheap but doesn't stand out as overly expensive either. Plenty of Oz options in the $150-$200 range, but the variety Oz's will set you back a little more. I've found that all their concentrates are very reasonably priced for the quality and combo deals available.

Communication: Communication was very good again. They're quick to respond to queries and are happy to help with anything you might need.

Packaging:
Image
A lot of you already know that SpeedGreens has some of the best packaging in the business. Their products arrive in a regular shipping box, inside of which is a vacuum sealed bag which contains the weed and concentrates that I ordered. No smell at all on the outside, and the pill bottles that the bud arrives in are class. Their budder and crumbles come in their own sealed bag, inside an eye-shadow container with a silicone insert that makes handling very straightforward

Products: AAAA Oz Variety Pack: Acapulco Gold, Platinum Blackberry, Citrique, Black Roses
8g Concentrate Variety Pack: Blueberry Nuken Shatter, Black Diamond Honeycomb, Violator Kush Sugar Wax, GSC Honeycomb

Acapulco Gold:

This bud is truly vibrant from it's colour to it's scent and taste, to the high itself. These green buds have golden and brown tones and a strong, fresh smell of pine and citrus. The flavour is zesty, starting with a tang of citrus and quickly shifting to a fresh spice during exhale. It releases a very clean vapour and results in a cerebral, uplifting high. A really enjoyable experience from start to finish. 8/10

Platinum Blackberry:
Image
This stuff is FROSTY! These buds are absolutely beautiful and no camera can truly do them justice. They are caked in terpenes, which produces are wonderful aroma of berry and pine that really amps up the anticipation to use the strain. It vaporizes great, with those berry tones coming through in a present, but gentle flavour that sits on the tongue after exhale with a subtle hint of diesel on the aftertaste. The high covers the entire body, leaving me locked to the couch but still lucid enough to enjoy my surroundings like a true indica should. 8.5/10

Citrique:
Image
Holy INTENSE!! Strong scent profile mimics Acapulco in it's fresh and potent citrus tones but cranks the intensity up by 10. The scent of this bud is so strong it blew my face back the first time I put my nose to the pill bottle. Those citrus notes come through very apparently when vaporized and the high itself energizes and uplifts moments after dosage. Perfect for day time smoking, or hanging with friends. 8.5/10

Black Roses:
Image
These slightly darker, mostly purple buds are sweet and beautiful, and immediately jumped to the top of my strain list. It has a complex, sweet smell with berry and grape notes that give way to a slight hint of diesel. The buds themselves look beautiful, are a nice density, and the smell is intoxicating. It produces a flavour that's really memorable and leaves you wanting more. The high itself is a pure indica wrecking ball. Intense euphoria is only a couple bowls away with this strain, making it a truly excellent choice for experienced users. 10/10

Blueberry Nuken Shatter:
Image

Second time ordering. My favourite of their shatters by far. Beautiful fruity notes accompanied with a smooth hit. Gorgeous clear golden hue. Both grams snapped very nicely making for easy loading and usage. 9/10

Black Diamond Honeycomb:
Image
This stuff looks delicious but doesn't deliver the flavour you might expect. A perfect golden brown crumble, this budder glistens when it hits the right light and gives off a beautifully sweet and earthy aroma. When vaped however, there is only the suggestion of sweetness. Instead, it is super musky and earthy. Potency is certainly there, and it doesn't leave you completely couch locked. Would recommend it to those that value that pungent muskiness, but I tend to want more flavour from my concentrates. 7/10

Violator Kush Sugar Wax:
Image
Sweet, earthy smell that doesn't translate when vaporized. Very musky with strong notes of gas, as you'd expect from a Kush-y wax, but personal preference means that it doesn't stand out to me. Both grams were quite different in texture which makes me wonder if the sugar waxes are made accidentally or purposefully. Can't speak to the quality comparison as this is my first time trying a sugar wax but it was a pleasant enough smoke with an enjoyable, true-to-form indica high. 7/10

Girl Scout Cookies Honeycomb:
Image
This stuff is awesome! A nice light brown, creamy budder that gives off hints of earthy, floral sweetness. A joy to vape and it's no wonder it's sold out already. Smooth as anything, and the exhale leaves notes of roasted nuts with a delicious sweet earthy aftertaste. 100% would recommend. 9/10 (negotiated down from a 9.5 by my gf, who couldn't have it rated higher than the blueberry shatter)

Promotional Items: 3.5g Black Nuken AAAA, 3.5g Blueberry Nuken AAA, 2 King Pre-rolls

Black Nuken AAAA:
Image
Visually didn't stand out amongst the other quads I ordered. Leafy, smaller nugs with strong notes of purple and lots of frost. Wasn't expecting too much but its a great smoke. Crazy fruity notes accompanied by a great heady high. Feel stoned but clear headed. Points deducted for bag appeal 7/10

Blueberry Nuken AAA:
Image
Beautifully trimmed, dense nug which revealed purple bursts of leaf when broken up. This thing was an absolute beauty and smelled delicious - piney with a strong burst of sweetness that left a wonderful berry note on the tongue on exhale. A strong AAA and one that i'll strongly consider getting again. 8/10

Freebies 1g Burmese Kush AAAA, 1g Killa Crip Kush AAAA, 1g Sweet Tooth AAAA
Image
Burmese Kush: Really pretty nug. Dense with a tight trim. Subtle notes of sweetness underpin a mostly piney aroma and vapor.
Killa Crip Kush: A complex aroma with berry, pine, and bubblegum notes. Sweet and fresh, with a balanced high that doesn't lock me down.
Sweet Tooth: Certainly lives up to its name. Smells and tastes just like candy. Really enjoyable, buzzy high that is great for watching funny videos.

Incentive for Customers: 10% off coupon for new and returning customers (NEW10, REPEAT10), Complimentary 3.5g with first order
Spend >$179 - 2 King Pre-rolls, Spend >$279 - 3.5g AAA free, Spend >$379 - 3.5g AAAA free (Stackable, but can't be used in conjunction with the coupon codes)
Free Shipping on $99+ orders

Incentive for Review: No incentive discussed.

Notes: I find that their concentrate deals are some of the best around. The mix and match weed deals are pricey but not too bad. Was a little disappointed that their repeat customer coupon doesn't work on top of the promotional freebies - this is a change in policy since my last order. Overall extremely happy with my order and product quality, will be a customer again.

Thanks! The sweet tooth was really fun - don't think I've got such obvious sweetness from a strain before. Black roses is the one that's stuck with me since I first tried it lol just wanna keep vaping it. The flavour is just amazing

I'm usually more of a Sativa guy but the Black Roses just knocks it outta the park. Got into the Acapulco properly today and it really is quality. It's really energizing

Hah yeah, the Black Roses are really a quality indica, I'm more of a sativa person myself but the gram I tried of them was just killer, knocked it out of the park. I tried the acapulca gold today since my order came in. I can see what you mean... it's a winner sativa strain too.

Honestly I've been impressed by everything. I rarely go for quads just because the price is steep and I was worried it wouldn't feel like value for money after paying 100-140/oz before hand. But I've been really impressed and happy with my purchase. There's a few moms that are really killing it right now and speedgreens is on that list for me
