Overall rating out of 10: 9
Sign Up: No fuss, well done registration. They ask for the ID card right upon registration which is nice.
Ordering & Pricing: Prices are very good, the site is very well done and responsive, the instructions upon ordering are clear and simple. Great shopping experience.
Communication: Quick and fast, was done through private messages on here. Mike contacted me immediately after the draw informing me that I had won and to go pick my prize on the site. I explained what I'm looking for in weed, he sent me 6-7 recommendations. I asked if I could get 5 heights so I could try several of them and he accepted the deal. The price tag was up to 160$ in my cart and he told me to pass the order and he'd send it over even if it was over the prize limit (the selection did contain several lower priced strains).
Packaging: One of the less enthusiastic packaging I've had from a MOM, but it did the job very well, no smell whatsoever from the package. It consisted of a box, in which there was a properly sealed vacuum bag (not vacuumed with air inside to protect the buds). Inside that was a dark ziplock, which in turn contained 5 little baggies each with a label describing the contents. There was also an extra pre-roll of Master Kush which was a welcomed addition.

*** All products were smoked as joints as I feel it's the best way to taste and judge weed ***

Holy grail: https://imgur.com/9NEuPcC This one was presented to me by Mike as their loudest/top product. The buds have a slight purple tint to some of it's leaves, it looks awesome. The nose is stronger than the other strains in the order, it's hard to describe, a mix of pine and berries is the best I can describe. The smoke on this was a bit stronger than the others but it tasted like potency more than anything, lol... A super nice sweet/berries aftertaste that lingers long after expelling the smoke.. Wow, this is amazing. Looking at reviews on leafly one guy said this was a strain he makes sure to always have in his reserve and I totally understand why. Top notch product right there.
Cookies and Cream: https://imgur.com/c04iLv1 The nose on this one is fantastic.. It has a light gassy smell I can't quite place, doesn't smell like anything I had before. The smoke on this is awesome, definitely creamy and super smooth as well. You can take huge hits of this, producing a very thick smoke that doesn't attack the lungs, throat or nose. Very pleasant smoke, would definitely order again.
Master Kush pre-roll: There won't be a picture of that one as I smoked it right after the order came in. This was a fat cone labeled at 1 gram. It was very well rolled, with Raw paper, it burned very well. This weed is pretty amazing, it almost tastes like nothing while smoking it, kind of like drawing vapor. You can take huge rips on that joint and not cough or sneeze at all, this was a superb smoke. I prefer more aggressive strains in the terpene department but still, that was excellent stuff. Again, at 99$ an OZ this is a steal.
Cherry bomb: https://imgur.com/3U9bZ7v The nose on this is pretty tame, it smells good but pretty generic. It smokes real smooth and the taste is good but faint. Good strong buzz though, only smoke a tiny joint and I'm pretty lit. Not a big fan of faint strains so not a big fan of this, but it's still pretty good.
Bubba Kush: https://imgur.com/wS0qyU3 This is another one of the 99$/oz strains, didn't expect too much but it's pretty descent! The buzz is good and strong, the taste was a bit uneventful but the little that comes out is good, very smooth smoke. I preferred the Master Kush if I compare both 99$ strains.
Jack White: https://imgur.com/hyU9lyW I'll say in advance I'm not a big fan of Jack, but I am a fan of white widow so I thought I'd try that one. The jack is strong with this one, so I'm not a fan of the taste. It's pretty spicy, tickles the nose when you smoke it. Still a quality bud, just not a fan of Jack
Incentive for Customers: They have a 20% store-wide promotion right now (included in the prices listed on the site).
Incentive for Review: Well obviously I got the products for free and Mike clearly stated the goal of the draw was to allow site members to get to learn about them better. I always review all my orders anyway!
Notes: As some of you might remember I've been pretty unlucky with MOM's so far... Between hash that provides zero buzz, weed that ripped my lungs and weed so dry just looking at it it crumbles to dust, lets say I've been very weary of ordering my next order. Well this order definitely restores faith in the business. All 5 strains (6 counting the extra pre-roll) were fresh and all smell like bomb. The AAAA selection on their site isn't very big, but they offer a wide range of quality/prices. Their Master Kush (the pre-roll) is a 99$/OZ strain, at that price, this is one HELL of a bargain, it's not some bottom of the barrel stuff, it's a AAA in my book.
