Ordering & Pricing: 8.5/10
The ordering was nice and easy, pay by e-transfer. There was some issues in my ordering process but they were very quickly resolved (more info below). The prices seem very fair for what you get, I did a AAA mix n match Oz for $155 and 3.5g of the chocolope shatter for $79.
Communication: 10/10
There was some confusion in the website showing me two different order numbers so I was unsure which to include in the e-transfer. Luckily King tut replied via email within a few hours and clarified which to use. After the order was completed I received the incorrect amount of KT coins (their reward points program) for my purchase but again they emailed me back within half a day to add the extra coins.
I had also referred a friend of mine to the site but before I could give him my referral link he made an account and a purchase. He emailed king tut to ask if they were be ever so kind enough to reward me with the points as I did refer him to the site. He has since told me that King tut got back to him, got my email, and will include an extra gift in my next order for my efforts. I'm really looking forward to that and the 4/20 sale
During the earlier ordering issues and as shown again with my friend King tut has been nothing short of awesome in terms of communication and customer service!
Packaging: 8/10
Everything came in a large opaque smell-proof ziplock bag and was shipped via Xpresspost. It arrived within 3 business days from my payment going through (around 1:00 PM EST) and 2 business days from when they shipped it. There was no smell before opening the inital ziplock bag. Everything in my order was very clearly labelled and packaged in bags that were opaque black on one side and clear on the other (pictures below).
The only suggestions I would have for packing is that I've seen some moms put more detailed information (Sativa/Indica %, A-AAAA, type of high, etc...) about the strains on the labels. I think this would be a very helpful and welcomed addition if it were something feasible.
Products / Photos: 9/10 overall - Great quality for the price
In my photos I tried to take a picture of the biggest nug in the bag along with an average nug. Each bag was mostly large to medium nugs with a few small nugs.
Death Bubba (AAA) - Indica 70% Sative 30% - 7g
This has a faint sweet but piney floral smell to me, not too overpowering. The nugs are dense with just a little give and are nicely coated in trichomes. On grinding the smell came out slightly more earthy. The smoke was smooth on the inhale and exhale, it hit me fast and gave me that cloudy headed Indica feeling pretty hard along with a nice tingly body buzz, it didn't give me the normal Indica munchies and lasted for a decent amount of time without a burnout after. Not sure how useful it would be before bed as it didn't leave me tired but I still really enjoyed it. 8.5/10
Update 04/23: In my solo I didn't find this one very flavorful but did still enjoy the effects.
Citrique (AAA) - Indica 30% Sativa 70% - 7g
This is some of the most inviting and amazing smelling weed I've ever gotten (granted this is my first time getting BC weed). It has a very strong and sweet citrus/pine smell that's slightly skunky and stings the nose a bit. It is very tight and dense and just looked just dusted in trichomes. On grinding it smelled just as strong. The smoke was a bit harsh on the inhale/exhale and made me cough a little bit unlike the Death Bubba, although it did taste nice on the exhale. The high was a strong Sativa high, I felt clear headed, euphoric, and energized after smoking and was great for gaming or getting things done without that couch lock feeling. However as is normal for me with Sativa's I found it didn't last quite as long, there wasn't much of a burnout with this either. This is one of my top 5 favorite strains to date that I've had and is a good daytime smoke. 9/10
Update 04/23: This effects of this were equally as enjoyable in the solo as with the smoke, it has an almost glue-like flavor that really comes out in my vape though.
Strawberry Blue (AAA) - Indica 25% Sativa 75% - 7g
This is a nice brighter green than the rest and has one huge nug that looked like it was about 3-4g on it's own. This one smells less overpowering and sweet than, but similar to, the Citrique. It is also slightly earthy instead of skunky. The nugs are reasonably dense and tight but have some give similar to the Death Bubba. The smoke was smoother than the Citrique and had a simliar high, It was a little less energizing/motivating for me and more head in the clouds creative however. The high seemed to last a decent amount of time for a Sativa and had a slight burn out after of feeling hazy. 8.5/10.
Update 04/23: I've updated the overall rating of this one from 8 to 8.5. In my solo the sweet strawberry flavor is really apparent and quite enjoyable in this one and it give me great functional effects where I feel euphoric but not too energetic. The flavor also lasts for longer then most other strains do in my solo.
Liberty Haze (AAA) - Indica 50% Sativa 50% - 7g
This one has a smell that reminds me of key lime with a bit of pine, I really enjoy the smell and it looks (just like everything i got in this order) quite covered in trichomes. The nugs were soft, light, and spongy. This and the Ice Cream Cake are the only two I've yet to grind/smoke but I'll report back in a few days and update. ?/10
Update 04/23: The lime flavor is really nice in my solo and it is also in the smoke a little but as well. This one had effects that left me with a body buzz. It also hit me in the head and behind the eyes, and played with my vision a little bit (not in a bad way). Overall rating 8.5/10.
[Free 1g Gift] Ice Cream Cake (AAA) - Unkown lineage as it's not listed on the site
This one had a smell that was hard to pin down as it was very dull, it just kind of smelled earthy but a bit more complex. The nugs were soft and also very small but I have to assume that's only because it's a 1g gift. This one is a vibrant and bright lime green and looked very appealing despite the lack of smell. Of all the strains this seemed to be the heaviest in trichomes and looked the best, I'm really excited to try it. As mentioned above I've yet to smoke so I will update in a few days. ?/10
Update 04/23: After coming back to this one and upon grinding I was able to get more of a spicy earth smell from it. In my solo it leaves a bittersweet doughy flavor on the back of my throat and made it feel like there was a coating left behind in my mouth. The effects were not strong in the beginning but lead into enjoyable heady effects. I'm big on smell and taste with strains and found this to be uninteresting but not bad. Overall rating 7/10.
Chocolope Shatter - 3.5g
I really like the consistency on this shatter, it isn't very sticky and is easy to handle. It's a bit darker than the $35-40 shatter that I've had before but was still quite transparent/clear. I use a vape pen as I don't have a rig and it vaped nicely in my pen/coil, it didn't sputter/spit or leave a lot of residue like some shatters I've had. When vaped it was nice and earthy but with much less of a pine/terpene taste compared to the more expensive shatters I've had. It had no chemical or plastic-like taste that I've unfortunately had with some products before. 7.5/10 before considering cost, 9/10 overall due to the price point.
Sorry I didn't get a shot of it in the original brown wax paper, I got excited and tried some and put it all in my silicon container before I took photos.
Incentive for Customers: I got 10% off as a new customer, the free 1g of Ice Cream Cake (I chose a mystery 1g of AAA on checkout), a free joint tube with a joint in it, free papers, and a free 80mg CBD gummy. The joint and tube, papers, and gummy were unexpected and a nice addition! I was quite happy and surprised at the extra gifts I got.
Incentive for Review: You get reward points for reviewing purchased products on their website, no incentive I know of for this review.
Notes: My first experience with King tuts has been a very positive one! I'm very happy with the product I got at the price point I got it at and I will definitely be purchasing from them again. They seem to have a very rewarding loyalty point program and amazing customer service so far so they've left me a very happy customer. 9/10 overall because, well, nobody's perfect.
Update 04/23: I put in a 4/20 order with KT and I'm hoping I was one of the first 150! My order shows as completed so either way I will make sure to do another review for that order
