A Review For Benni Botanicals

[Law M]

Hello All! I have been using Benni's botanicals for about 8 months now, and it is hands down the most incredible leaf I have had, and continues to deliver on all levels. I have been through a ton of vendors and Benni is the one true gift that keeps on giving. I have yet to share any reviews for anything really, so I want to share some now regarding some of my favorites:

Yellow Lida -

Speed: Mid-Fast
Pain: 8.5/10
Mood: 10/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall – 9.5/10

This is a true, fully encompassing leaf well balanced leaf that Benni mixes in house. It is 50% white lida, 35% green lida, and 15% red lida (which are all great by themselves as well). This has been one that has never failed once, and just keeps shining with each dose. Strong euphoria, long legs, perfect combination of speed and relaxation along with incredible pain killing properties…this super special blend is something to behold and definitely worth keeping your eye out for.

Red Lida –

Speed: A True Mid Spec (for me)
Pain: 9/10
Mood: 9.5/10
Legs: 8/10
Overall: 9/10

Red lida has been my go to red since it was released a few months back. I use it solo, mix it with whites, greens, yellows, golds and it shines through it all. It is warm blanket on a cold day while providing clean euphoria, increased sociability and a clear mind. I particularly LOVE mixing this strain with greens. Reds are my favorite and have been since day one, and this particular strain is everything I love about reds and kratom in general.

White MD –

Speed: Fast
Pain: 8/10
Mood: 9/10
Legs: 8/10
Overall: 8.5/10

A great, heavy hitting White MD. Does everything I look for in a white: incredible energy, focus, nice mood lift and tons of motivation. This strain puts me in the zone. I love to mix it with reds personally to create a nice balance of energy and relaxation.
JongKong MD –

Speed: Slow-Mid
Pain: 9/10
Mood: 10/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall: 9.5/10

JKMD is a beautiful strain for any part of the day, especially if you are wanting to cut a bit of speed off of a fast green or calm down a stimulating white. This strain picks you up gently and places you down even more so. It is just an overall great feeling strain. I love it on its own or mixed with anything. It shines bright on its own and makes for an incredible base for anything you want to mix it with. Some feel it to be very slow and use it for night time, and others (like myself) find it just enough stimulating to take it during the day.

Green Tambora –

Speed: Mid-Fast
Pain: 7.5/10
Mood: 9/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall: 8.5/10

Tambora is a beast of a strain. Incredible mood lift and wonderful energy. This has become one of my favorite greens. I love this strain by itself and especially when mixed with whites if you want to go fast and most reds if you want to slow it down a bit.
MD Blend –

Speed: Mid
Pain: 8/10
Mood: 9.5/10
Legs: 10/10
Overall: 8.5/10

Its honestly hard to give most of these strains a lower score than 8. I just took MD blend by itself this evening just to be sure what I am about to say is accurate. I took up the Benni method of sublingual consumption, and about 20 minutes later I was soaring. Legs are still pumping STRONG and it has been 2.5 hours (typically strains start dying out a bit for me around the 1.5/2hr mark). MD blend is a sacred gift Benni bestows upon us all. It is the perfect balance of stimulation/speed and euphoria/relaxation. I can take this literally any time of the day and it assists me in whatever area I need it in. MD blend is a must have in any ones kratom stash. Great by itself and mixed.(Legendary mix = Gold MD/MD Blend).

Super Green –
Speed: Mid-Fast
Pain: 8.5/10
Mood: 10/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall: 9/10

This is in my top 2 favorite strains of all time. It is a super strong, super balanced and heavy hitting strain. The euphoria this strain provides is out of this world, along with great energy, focus, and sociability. The pain killing properties in this one surprised me as well – great pain relief for a green. Super Green is a MUST HAVE.
Gold MD –

Speed: Mid-Slow
Pain: 8.5/10
Mood: 8.5/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall: 8.5/10

Gold MD I personally use for bases for other strains, and for a base, it really does not get better (other than Gold Bali, which is my second favorite strain for a base). Nonetheless, Gold MD shines on its own wonderfully. It is an incredible strain to take the edge off of other strains, and add some mood lift and relaxation, yet still providing a bit of energy. You will never see me without Gold MD in my stash.

Gold Bali –

Speed: Mid
Pain: 8.5/10
Mood: 8.5/10
Legs: 9/10
Overall: 8.5/10

Gold Bali is a lot like the Gold MD, only a bit faster. It is my 2nd favorite base for blending.

I have more strains to take again and review! Stay tuned.

Always been a Benni's fan, well, since a year or so ago when I discovered him here. I'll havta make a mental note about the 'Lida' strains, haven't tried those ones yet myself.

Great review! Wish most of these weren’t out of stock

In addition to all the goodness you describe from Benni's product, I'd also like to note just how fresh and clean it feels each time to enjoy one of their strains. Quite similar to TFH where even if the potency might be subtle, you still enjoy the experience of clean Kratom. Of course, we know mostly that it isn't "clean", but that's why this experience is rather unique - free of heady feelings and just sort of pure. Green Goddess is my muse from them! I've been almost using them as my sole vendor right now.

I enjoy the green lida and white lida mixed. Or the red lida with a little green. You mentioned the yellow is a blend of all of the lidas. But i have tried 15 times with the yellow lida and cant find a way to make it work. Love the lidas. But there is something different with the yellow lida. Maybe a blend of old lidas?
