Herbal RVA review

Post by TacomaGuy »

RVA has been my main vendor for the past 3+ years. The quality is typically very good on average no matter what you order. My favorite is PMD and green bali but all of his greens are really good. His strains usually rate from good to damn good and in 3 years I have only tried a couple strains that didn't work well for me. Prices are among the best in the industry. His shipping is always fast and his customer service is also really good, I always get a fast response. This vendor went way above and beyond to help me during the start of the pandemic to make sure I didn't run out of Kratom. He is a good man. Herbal RVA is an excellent vendor. Its 7ohm and Herbal RVA for me. These are my top two vendors after 12 years of trying different places.

Have you tried any reds or golds from there lately?

Seems like every time i get a red or gold from them it sucks, but the greens have been good for sure!

I have been working my way through a Herbal RVA order and the Super Green is so far the best out of the order. I do like the Royal Bentuangie for winding down in the evening though . I still have a bunch of the White Bigbang that I tried when I first got the order and I haven't re tested . I'll give it try in the morning. I'm trying to step up my review skills. Sometimes I have so many different strains going that I lose track of which is which. I did buy a kilo of the PMD2 because it was getting buzz on their fb . That's been put in storage because I have a bunch of different strains from 3 other vendors I want to sample first.

hey welcome to the club! :P our KBD club (Kratom buying disorder) anyway... I recently bought this Herbal RVA PMD2 batch, after reading multiple good reviews on their FB group. Like you say, it's added to stash. Got a few "known good" batches of their PMD in storage, going back 3+ years!

Selling to veteran kratom consumers is hard sometimes. The green sulawesi and wild green that came through were both Great. I was recommending those above the pmd2. I will try to get ahold of you next restock with my suggestion. I think its easier to suggest a strain for specific customers then to suggest one for everyone. When you hear about a green strain causing wobbles does it get your attention in a good way?

Yes I think so, cuz it seems like wobbles are a side effect of good potent kratom & Serving Size... I have not experienced that, since learning about "Less Is More" :D

Hey what does Herbal RVA think about these KCPA regulation laws, :roll: Labeling requirements... in each state? Will vendors need 10 different kinds of Labels, for different KCPA laws in various states? Passing KCPA laws with threats of lawsuits, criminal and civil penalties? Maybe a bigger subject to discuss here. Thanks.

I think one bullet proof label will be able to be created. Labeling the mitra% and 7ohm% is the only thing we would have to add to our current label if I'm remembering correctly.
I'm more worried about other vendors who give medical advice and suggest strains for "x" issues or things. That is a easy easy lawsuit to win if your a customer. :twisted:

Wish more customers practiced less is more, it would help with overall tolerance issues and such. People throwing down too much powder is doing them and the industry no good.

Has anyone tried the less popular named “strains” from Rva?

Working on ordering and usually just go with pmd or green Jong Kong type things, but have been wondering how things like Vietnam or other less mainstream type things are.

I just got a batch in of greens and the Super Green 2 is really excellent. I highly recommend it - very strong, comes on hot and then has a nice even burn with energy to spare. I also quite like the Plantation for totally different reasons - for me it is a very clean, fast and focused green - sort of a daytime for work green; reads like a white almost and it’s shaping up to be a nice one for blends.

Yeah I'll third or fourth the PMD2. I also like the white md (consistently good), red bali, and pmd1. If anyone is interested in a small sampler let me know, I've got a bit of a rva stash going... though I took all the PMD2 already lol. I'd recommend getting some cheap 100g bags from rva to sample instead though, at $10 a pop you can't beat it. RVA is my go to when I'm strapped for cash or having payment issues with other vendors, or if I just need something quick (he ships priority same/next day). J is super reliable.

went with 250g of Super green 2, and 100g of the vietnam. Looking back i probably should have just gotten more pmd2 or 1 lol but who knows, maybe this Vietnam one will be decent.

I think you’ll be happy with the Super Green 2 - let us know how the Vietnam is!

Revisited the Herbal RVA White MD that I took out of rotation a couple months ago because I wasn't feeling it - -felt it this morning though, holy smokes, its strong. I've cut down my dose to 2g and I probably could have cut this to 1. Its an older batch #80420, but I haven't been disappointed with this vendor.
