High Sierra Herbals
Posted: Sat Mar 07, 2020 3:05 pm
I've been stocking up a lot over the last year and I've realized like 70 percent of my storage is one vendor. I decided to look around and try some new vendors to add into my rotation and storage. I've never heard of High Sierra but they were doing a double m discount and decided what the hell. I got 2 kilos/4 batches. The GMD was the best leaf I've had... like ever. I was blown away. Freshness, flavor, effects, everything. I was honestly shocked because I wasn't expecting or even looking for anything special. I use for chronic pain, so I dose 3-4 times a day, every single day (roughly 10-13 grams per day and trying to go a little lower), and although half the time I still get some decent effects outside of pain relief, it never works to the level of being awesome. It's 1000 percent a daytime strain with loooong legs. The GMD is one of those lighter colored, fresher tasting batches, that you can redose a bunch, and although less is still more, you won't get wobbles if that makes any sense. I made a HUGE reorder the very next day and got it all earlier today. Jeff was great with questions and communicating via email.
The Red MD, and Red Dragon, were solid. Definitely what you want if you're looking for a heavy, warm night time dose. The Green Malay was great when I mixed it with the GMD. Was a little slower. I need to mess around with smaller doses to give a full review on that. I only got it a few days ago. One huge difference I've noticed is the taste of the Reds... so different. For those who have had Bents, you know how much different the taste can be, so maybe they're fermented?? The Green Malay was a little darker too. All super fresh. Whatever it is that they're doing it's working.
A side note on my review: The last 8 months I've been strictly using Smiley (90percent) and TFH. You all know how legit both vendors are and how great their leaf is. I saw fused flora (I think) had a post about strain rotation and how it's more important to rotate vendors than the batches. So maybe I was burnt out on a certain region's alkaloid profile? That might be playing a part, but either way this is the first true 10/10 rating I can give for a specific batch, and overall I'd rank High Sierra Herbals among my favorite vendors. Anyway, wanted to spread the good word!
