Benni Botanicals 5 strain review
First and foremost, it was my 1st time trying Benni Botanicals - he emailed me immediately, I got the 1st time discount, and he was awesome and prompt. I ordered Tuesday morning, and I got the package on Thursday. That, did make me smile. The packaging is also too notch. So, I ordered 100g of Red Bali, 100g of Green Vietnam, 25g of the Super Green and he threw in a couple samples of The Maeng Da Blend and Jong Kong MD - awesome. So, here’s what I got.....
Jong Kong MD - 9/10 - some of the fastest leaf I’ve tried, similar to a recent STH blend i recently had. Potent, and uplifting
Maeng Da Blend - 9/10 - strong, euphoric and relaxing. I’ve been mixing with the Jong Kong MD and thus far it’s my go to morning mix
Super Green - 8/10 - mid spec decent green, solid and balanced.
Red Bali - ??/10 - the reason I’ve put question marks there is because I’ve burned it twice and gotten not much of anything close to what I’ve read in the reviews - the first time I chalked it up to me haven eaten an hour before, but last night i was on an empty stomach, and got the same results. I don’t want to give it a BAD review, because everyone’s body is different, and maybe it’s just me, and the other strains I’ve tried are fire. But, hopefully I put it away for a few weeks and get better results then.
Green Vietnam- 8.5/10 - only thing I’m gonna say is 4g in the morning and 2 cups of coffee and I’m suddenly the most enthusiastic person at the office.
From the price, communication, fast shipping and overall quality I’m super impressed and looking forward to my next order from Benni. Who knows, maybe the Red Bali will get better for me after a couple weeks in my dresser, as that’s happened before! I only bought that strain because of the feedback on the board, but we’re all different. But fire leaf, great customer service and good pricing. He’s got himself a new customer. In my opinion, Benni and Smiley have the best leaf at the moment. And you can get STH on Benni’s site, no brained for me!

Re: Benni Botanicals 5 strain review
I hope I'm in agreement with your review! I just bought the last kilo of the MD Blend, another key of the JK MD (I left 1 in stock
) and 100 grams of the green Vietnam. I was impressed with Benni's customer service on my first and only (until today) order. I've seen many others rave about Benni so figure I can't go wrong with this order.

Re: Benni Botanicals 5 strain review
I've been on a bit of a Benni's buying binge, ordering about 25x100g bags over the past two weeks, and I agree, the Red Bali is quite lackluster. Actually one of the only marginal variety I've got from Benni, along with the Beleafer Green Horn, Green Java, and Dank Elephant.
Funny, because there was a bit of hype involving Beleafer here, and those three Beleafer were very underwhelming.
All in all, Benni's is one of my go to vendors, as the vast majority of what I've bought is truly excellent.

I just tried Benni's new batch of red Bali 10/25/19, I never tried the last batch but this one is a good relaxing energy red Bali, good morning red for anyone interested.
