FSE is delicious, and I would choose it over shatter any day. I guess it all comes down to personal preference, but if you've never tried FSE, I definitely recommend trying it

The process to make it is very similair but FSE does take some time to learn how to make correctly. Its more volatile then shatter and you lose alot of weight in the process while its made. Regardless, FSE is full spectrum, it has much better medicinal effects in my opinion. Its stronger, has much more flavour and always has a large number of terpenes to direct your high. Though you can make full spectrum shatter, its expensive and most shatters are not full spectrum. It takes me much less FSE to get an equal feeling from shatter, sometimes its hard to even say the shatter gives you the same feeling as fse as its not a full spectrum extract. Cottonwoods has some quality product, thought it does lack a little on the terps their process should only get better from now on. I prefer the Jet Fuel and the Lemon Meringue.

Decided to go with Cottonwoods. All of their FSE offerings and a $99 mixed O. Thanks for the review.

FSE hits harder and has more flavour from my experience. It comes at a higher price usually 60$+ Alot are double the price of the high end shatters.

I have never heard of FSE before. I use shatter often and find it does not have all the medical benefits I am looking for and my tolerance has been getting higher. Any suggestions on where to get some FSE to try?

IMHO you won't fix a tolerance problem by taking more/stronger stuff, you're just going to get to a point where nothing works and that point comes pretty damn fast when you ramp up the dosage. Consistency is key for tolerance.

If you want the best out country has to offer, I recommend Highgrade.BC . In my humble opinion quality wise there just isn't competition. There's all kinds of great diamond producers in Canada, but to me they are all just battling it out for #2. Okanagan Green has them for $80 which is the cheapest I've seen in awhile.

Have you ever tried Heavenly Daze or VanCity Extracts HTFSE or HCFSE? I've tried High Grade, Elevated, Maple Leaf and Kind Selections as well and those are all good, but 2 that blew me away were Congolese HTFSE by Heavenly Daze and Haze HCFSE from VanCity Extracts.

I'll have too keep an eye out. I've had HD Congo Sap & FCGSC Sap, I found it nice but lacking in comparison to a FSE. Stoked to hear they make it now. Also havent heard of VanCity Extracts, where could a fella peruse their offerings?

I picked up the VanCity Extracts stuff at Canmedi. They also sell it at Eden in Vancouver. Haven't seen it anywhere else.

Vancity makes good clean meds but not gonna lie, i went into eden a few times to return some extracts that were listed as live resin but could clearly tell the terpenes were a mix of artificial and natural. They didnt hesitate on taking it back, tasted like absolute ass lol
