I just ordered from them and I can’t really find any recent reviews. I’m kinda new so I basically try vendors on the saidit list. I’ve tried Rhino, SS and bunny so far and it hasn’t worked out. Hopefully I can find a go to vendor soon. Does anyone still order from them?

Nice acknowledgment on your profile @CatfatherB!
@Pdorse9, we look forward to hearing how it works for you, as @CatfatherB mentioned. I’ve never heard of them, so please remember to share when you’ve had enough time to determine your experience overall.
It’s important to remember that most of us take a lot of time, energy and expense finding our go-to vendors. Shortcuts are not helpful, in my experience. It’s taken me YEARS to find the ones I can now use routinely. But I still make time for trying new or new-to-me samples. Go-to vendors change over the years as well, so it’s pretty useless trying to rush the process.
Plant products are not predictable.
This website is a great resource for choosing who to sample. A bit of luck is also helpful

Hopefully you’ll be enjoying this part of your journey over the holidays!

The last time I remember hearing anything about Acadica was when Badger Silver came back from Indonesia with a re stock.. people were eagerly awaiting it but I think it was a flop..that was in early '19 tho.

Acadica was the best kratom I found back on the Reddit boards when I started out, 3 or so years back. My latest from him is probably last Black Friday or so, and it was still pretty good by any standards. One thing I recall about his kratom was that while not every single strain was a winner, it was pretty consistently good, and all 3 colors had some kick to them, unlike lately where either the reds are weak or the whites are. Maybe it's just me, but I got very few decent reds or whites in 2020. Anyways yeah, good price for some pretty good kratom is how I remember his stuff.

yeah Badger is a good guy... been quiet this year, since the Indo
shipping problem of early 2019 & he wrote some alarming stuff on FB.. he wasn't the only one. But that's ~2 years ago, everyone survived and adapted I guess. They passed a KCPA "Regulation" there in Utah, fwiw.
I agree, his Kali and Sibau stuff, from 2017 was excellent!! I've got quite a bit of vintage Acadica in stock & might put some up on Trading Post. He's made at least 2 trips to Borneo, Pontianak... knows the business, inside & out. Yes he's had some average stuff too. But any vendor goes through that.
I hope Pdorse9 will do a Review, of the current Acadica selection here!

^ For sure. The one I recall was a Green Pinoh, one of the few batches to ever give me any real obvious "mood lift". I think it was White JongKong that I really liked, and I forget the strain of red he had that was really good. If his stuff is still as good as it was then it's on par with most of what's available around here, and he was never charging a ton, and still isn't.

Some Greens from Acadica's from the past sent me to twilight analgesic feel, bright white feel, not a clear thinking one but in a very good way. Not sure which specific batch, i haven't been rotating them but since someone mentioned them, i ll put them in rotation. Come to think i dont think i had similar effect from any vendor here yet. There is something differently unique about Acadica if you hit on a godly Gem. Some were just ok. Its a gamble like with any other vendor.

I have tried it and it seemed really strong. I’ll give you guys a review soon. I’ve been sick so I couldn’t really notice the effects.

I'm guessing it's solid, but yeah, please do let us know. If he has a sale in 2021 I'd be tempted to grab a kilo, fond memories of most of his stuff.
