I ordered their 9 oz special about a month or so ago. He had some good strains but some hit real well for me and some didn't. I liked the super green and white horn. Shipping was fast and the price was ok.

Ordered the 9oz sampler as well through email, haven’t heard back yet tho. Exited to try a new vendor.
Also, Sosa Speciosa is an awesome name.

Sosa has some of the most powerful and consistent leaf I've gotten from any vendor. Word is getting out on mewe. Hes also one of the few getting restocked often. You cant go wrong with him.

He has a 9 sampler deal for 35 and a 4way split kilo for 70. That's way better than ok.
I'll be checking this out very shortly.

Talked to him today, because of all the panic buyers (i’m assuming) he is now limited to only 5 red strains and nothing else. Once he gets more i’m Looking forward to trying his product. Will let you guys know when that happens.

You and me both, NMKrato, because I've been on MeWe for months and still can't see anything but vendor posts and chat.
I know there's a lot of good info on chat, it's just not something I can easily keep up with. But if you want the -latest- news on MeWe, that's where I'd start. If you can take it. Sometimes it gets pretty gross over there. A couple months ago I looged in, only to see tonsil stone extraction vids.

I got his 9 vein sample pack. Most are pretty good. I really liked his Red Jong Kong! Such a nice mellow burn! Also, great communication and fast shipping!

"String dried?" If you have a minute, I'd like to know more. Never heard of it but it sounds intriguing.

Sure. He has his farmer tie strings to the stems and hang to dry indoors. This way leaves don't lie on top of each other and get air in all directions. I think he has some pictures on his site of the drying technique. He charges $5 more per 250g and limits to 250g purchase because limited availability due to more labor intensive process.
Scroll down to second photo on this page ro see string drying.

Cool, I'd never heard of that (or didn't actually give it credence if I did; a lot of vendors claim a lot of things these days). But it makes a lot more difference when someone who participates in the community tries it out themselves, like you. I will definitely check it out. Thanks for taking the time!

Whiffy: haven't tried it myself yet because he was sold out, but have read multiple reviews that it is really great. I plan on grabbing some as soon as he has it back in stock.
I should also add that this vendor was excellent with communication and shipping was very fast.

How'd I miss that? Thank you for the correction! And of course let us know how it turns out if you ever get some.

Welcome Dave7x!
Just a quick note on SOSA's current string dried; he states on his site right now that, due to it being the rainy season in Indonesia, the drying technique for the string dried is different than it usually is. He says his farmers make every effort to preserve quality but the rain does force them to rack dry for 5 days before hanging. I just bought 250g of Red Indo string dried myself and am excited to try it, but am not expecting it to be what everyone was getting a month or so ago.
Post back and let us know what you think!

Yes I read that on the site as well. I just received the order and took my first dose, green horn. I've already does other stains earlier today so it will be difficult for me to tell the quality. The real test will be tomorrow morning.

I missed the initial stock sell off, but went all in on the green and red string drieds ‘Christmas Edition’.
I opened the box this morning and first burn of the day was the Green Malay. Dry season or rainy season, this stuff is on point!
For context, I wrecked my tolerance this week working my way through a bunch of super potent and speedy DGB crack.

This SOSA managed to cut through that and give me a great burn even at a lower than normal dose.
Nice green color. Fine crush (dense by weight). Creeper. Warm and cozy. Very relaxing, and analgesic. So mellow, and such a nice change of pace. Everything I’ve been pulling the last couple of weeks has been so fast it had my anxiety cranked up. This SOSA GM has brought me back down to earth.
I can’t wait to get into the rest of these and hope they are of equal high quality. Great stuff!

A friend of mine on a facebook group I follow suggest trying Sosa, so I gave it, spoke with Ben a bit without trying to bug him, and finally got an order together. Based on the review above me I wish I grabbed the Green Malay because I swapped the malay for the green horn, oh well I'll have to leave something for next order! I shall be back with some reviews as I go. Been spending a bit of money on kratom lately trying to get my favorites intact and reordered but it takes alot of digging and hunting. I'm glad there's a sosa thread though because we need more people to review vendors like this one.
