Enlightened Dispensary - Mount Prospect (MED)

2/23/2020
We've been with this dispensary for a little over a year...and we're leaving. We spend upwards of $1k/mo but this place can't seem to get it together. A year ago, they were on top of their game. They had great budtenders and they were willing to help. Now? Ha! Money grab. They have sold our orders to other customers (orders we placed minutes before leaving our house to head to the dispensary). They have misfilled our online orders without telling us about changes until after the sale has been made (surprise! No returns!). Their budtenders have no clue what they are doing and, even better, they expect you to discuss your medical history and conditions right in front of other customers. HIPAA violation anyone? Go elsewhere. This place doesn't care about you or any other medical patient. They are a shame to the industry.

Bought this one in flower and sweet heavens is it ever a hard-hitting indica! Puts me out for hours at a time even when I am feeling fully awake. Great option for anyone suffering from insomnia or trying to re-arrange their hours if they work odd shifts.

Anyone that reads my reviews knows that I strongly prefer indica for relaxation. That said, JH has really impressed me recently. Two days ago, I had just finished a really nice meal with my BF when I stepped off the curb wrong and I had some of the sharpest pains I have ever had in my back and pelvis. It was so intense that I stood still for a few moments absolutely sure that I was going to vomit due to the pain. BF had a cart of JH on him and encouraged me to try it. It took about 30 seconds to start to feel relief. 2 minutes after my first puff and I had gone from abject pain considering a trip to the hospital to sitting in my seat and chattering away at how shocked I was over the pain relief. I mean, legit 10/10 pain down to 0. I couldn't even feel any of the typical 'soreness' that goes along with such an incident. Even better, JH affected me from "the neck down". I did not feel anything cerebral which made me feel quite alert and aware without grogginess that some strains give me. Later that weekend, I wound up suffering from an intense GI upset that left me with heavy cramps in my abdomen and lower back. Again, JH to the rescue. 3 puffs from a cart and I was back to working on a craft project instead of laying in bed for the rest of the night. Obviously, this one goes right to the top of my list for pain relief! I am still floored at how well this worked for me. I only wish I had had access in high school when I was suffering such intense cramps from endometriosis/PCOS. I intend to keep this one in the house from this point forward for those "didn't see it coming" painful situations. Note: My pain relief on JH lasted about 45 minutes per puff. Carts make it very easy to dose as needed.

Durban Poison

5/1/2019
Let me first say that I am someone who strongly prefers indica but tried Durban Poison on a whim. I am so glad that I did. I've never had the chance to compare good flower of any strain to its concentrate counterpart. However, today I picked up both flower and budder. I started with a few bowls of DP, which I liked well enough. However, the real joy was in trying the DP (made by Cresco labs). The budder straight up smelled like pine sol it was so lemony. The hits were nice and smooth with an INTENSE pain relief benefit knocking down my neck, back, jaw pain and headache within moments. I have never had such notable pain relief that I felt like my skin was tingling, but it happened with DP. This one is, by far, my favorite cannabis strain. The reason? The strong lemony notes and pain relief factor. I combine this one with Blueberry for a lemon-blueberry flavor with mild sedation and moderate pain relief.

A great choice for anyone suffering from insomnia. I use this in concentrate form about 30 minutes before bed. By the time I am ready to sleep, GDP is doing its job. Zzzzzzzz.

This is one of my favorites. The flavor is certainly earthy but within seconds you're hit with a very heavy, relaxed feeling. This is one of my top choices for insomnia and deep sleep.

Straight Up Dark Chocolate Bar - 100mg

11/17/2018
I'm going to give this one a 4. I chipped off one star because there is an inherent weed taste in the background which is not present in other edibles I've tried. This one is pretty simple: it's a classic chocolate bar with cannabis. It claims to be a dark chocolate bar but I'd put it a touch closer to milk chocolate based on color alone. In any case, it is low-carb and keto-friendly. For those looking for a bar without HFCS, you've found it! I would purchase this one again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to obtain it.

Orange Zest Awakening Mints 100mg 20-pack

11/17/2018
I'm honestly shocked that no one has rated this product before me. 1 star is a generous rating from me considering how bad this edible was. I tried it in Las Vegas in November 2017. I had no experience at the time with edibles, but it nearly put me off trying anything at all ever again. The taste was slightly minty with a heavy dose of weed. You could have obtained the same flavor by just chewing up some ground bud and tossing in an orange tic-tac. I would absolutely never try this edible again if I personally had to pay for it. I can say that I have had some good experience with the Dixie company, so I'd still give them a shot again, but not whist buying mints.
