HERBAL INCENSE REVIEW

Blaze It Up is a smoking blend to redefine all smoking blends, offering a unique flavor, incredibly smooth smoke, and seriously appreciable effects that’ll keep you rolling for a good hour. If you consider yourself an enjoyer of herbal smokes, Blaze It Up can’t be missed.

Blaze It Up is the first 100% natural herbal smoking blend from Lazy Botanicals. If you haven’t heard of this manufacturer, they specialize in making all natural herbal supplements, and Blaze It Up is their first foray into the world of smokeables. Having had the luck of sampling some of their other products, I suspected I might be in for a bit of a treat with this blend. I received my sample of Blaze It Up from Lazy Botanicals.

Three grams of smoke mix are packed into a high-quality and very sturdy mylar packet with a zip lock seal along the top. Having easily ripped off the top of the packet, I peeled the packet open and took a whiff. Blaze It Up has a very unique scent, as I smelled it I picked up hints of lavender, lemon, and pine among an overall earthy scent. It’s really quite pleasant smelling. I flipped the packet over to find that the ingredients are clearly listed on the back: Lobelia inflata, Sceletium tortuosum, Passiflora incarnata, Lavendula angustifolia, Mucuna pruriens, Hordenum vulgare, and Cacao. I’m not entirely sure where in this mix the citrus and the pine-like aromas are coming from, certainly one of these herbs, but the lavender is wonderfully noticeable.

Visually the entire blend is dark green to brown in color, the similarity coming from the extract(s) which heavily coat all of the herbs within the blend. Under the light of a lamp, the herbs shimmer and shine with the extract, and I found myself more than a bit excited to pack a pipe with Blaze It Up. Interestingly enough, I could also make a cup of tea with this mix and the back of the packet includes instructions for making a tea from Blaze It Up, in addition to the instructions for smoking it.

The herbs seem very fresh to me, they’re mostly soft and sticky with extract. Although some bits are slightly larger than others, there’s no need to break any of it down, and I put a decent pinch into my pipe and use a regular lighter to draw forth my first puff. I’m taken aback at first – not even sure what to think. The flavor is…different from anything I’ve ever smoked before. First off, it’s completely and utterly smooth regardless of any “stems” that are in the mix, not a single speck of harshness can be noticed.

That flavor though! It hit my tongue and exploded like a hundred confused fireworks firing off in different directions. It’s bitter and like nothing I’ve ever tasted, it’s almost metallic in a way and yet not. I feel like I can almost put my finger on what it’s like but…I just can’t. It’s out of this world, but love or hate the flavor (personally I’m torn), it fades fast. It doesn’t even linger on the tongue or lips beyond thirty seconds, if that.

I have to reiterate how completely smooth Blaze It Up is because I’m shocked. Honestly I didn’t think this level of smoothness was even possible in the herbal smoke world. With Blaze It Up though, the bar just got raised and I’m so thoroughly impressed. This smoothness gets shadowed by the actual effects because soon I was forgetting about the wonderful smoothness. As the effects of Blaze It Up began to brew before I even finished my pipe, just a few puffs in, I could feel this wave of relaxation settling over my entire body.

My mind felt open, my mood wasn’t necessarily lifted but I was in a good mood to begin with, but my thoughts were freer in nature, more creative and enjoyable. The effects are mentally elevating, and they’re strong, undeniably there. I was alone, but with a group Blaze It Up would be fantastic, it would be a great social smoke for sure. The whimsical sensations that occurred with this blend were more than a mere placebo effect, and it easily lasted for a good hour making for a lengthy duration.

The taste of this blend was a little odd, that’s for sure, but with such smoothness and potent effects I have to say the temporary moment of strange flavor seems more like something I dreamt about, within a few minutes it was that far past in my mind and I was moving on. Everything about Blaze It Up has been wonderful, and I’m a little floored. I’ve reviewed other blends which I thought were amazing, top of the line quality – but Blaze It Up hands down tops those. This blend will definitely be going on ourBest Legal Smoke page.

After this experience, I have to reset my expectations for future herbal blends because Blaze It Up has shattered my preconceptions of what’s possible. It’s clear the extracts used were incredibly important in achieving the effects without sacrificing the enjoyment of a smooth herbal smoke, and I can’t seem to repeat it enough because I’m just overall impressed. When someone tries to claim that all natural herbal blends have little to no actual effect, this is the blend I’m going to point them to until another one surpasses it. Blaze It Up is top notch, high quality, and exactly what you’re looking for. If you like herbal smoking blends at all, this is one you absolutely must take a moment to try.

Pros:
-Sturdy, quality packaging
-Complete ingredient labeling and instructions on use
-Included tea instructions for non-smokers
-Smoothest smoke ever! Truly a zero-harshness blend
-Very relaxing
-Whimsical, fun and strong effects
-Social herbal smoke, talkative and amusing outlook
-Creatively inspiring, meditative and reflection enhanced
-Long duration, a little bit goes a long way

Cons:
-Unique bitter flavor may be off-putting to some, but it fades quickly

Bali Diesel Smoke doesn’t look very pretty with its black stems, but looks clearly aren’t everything because this herbal smoking blend was able to relax me for a good thirty minutes, effecting the body more than the mind, and ultimately encouraging some personal chill time.

Bali Diesel Smoke comes in a shiny, silver foil packet with party like theme shown in the colorful trails of smoke which decorate the black Club 13 label.  There’s only 1 gram of herb to smoke here, but with a packet designed to be resealable, I’m hoping a little bit goes a long way.  This particular sample was donated by SalviaExtracts.com, and is a ‘coming soon’ product.  According to the back of the package, the herbs within are a mixture of California Poppy Leaf, Lactica Virosa stems, Fermented Kanna Leaf, and more.  I’m glad they specifically listed ‘stem’ on the back of the packet, because that’s exactly what this mixture looks like – a pile of stems and sticks.

Well, that’s not entirely true.  After dumping the entire packet out, I took another look.  There are definitely leafy herb bits in here too; they’re just a darker color than the usual soft greens found in herbal mixtures. It’s clear that Bali Diesel Smoke uses an extraction process – and it must, if one gram will be enough to enjoy on more than one occasion.  Bali Diesel Smoke smells rather sweet prior to burning it, but it’s also got an exotic spicy smell to it.  I’m not sure what that is, but it’s intriguing none the less.  The back of the packet encourages the use of a pipe, water pipe, or vaporizer –after coming across so many blends which warn to avoid the use of a water pipe, I can’t help but try Bali Diesel Smoke that way.  I don’t grind the stems up, but I do break them up by hand so they’ll fit snugly in the water pipe.

Bali Diesel Smoke lights and draws easily.  It’s barely harsh at all through a water pipe; only one rather deep puff caused me to cough for a moment.  I smoked about a quarter of the gram, the taste was not exactly one to be cherished, but it faded so quickly that a few moments later I have trouble recalling what it even tasted like, aside from a distant burning plant taste of course.  After waiting for five minutes or so to pass, I can distinctly feel a warm, calm feeling in my body.  My muscles have relaxed indefinitely, and focusing my eyes on any one thing actually takes a bit of effort.  The vibe I’m getting from Bali Diesel Smoke isn’t so much a heady feeling, but instead it’s more like an encompassing hug.

I had no trouble maintaining a good, even great, mood while partaking in Bali Diesel Smoke, but I’m not sure if I’d call it euphoric.  I didn’t feel any particular change in my mood, aside from a very peaceful and pleasant bodily sensation.  This feels like it’s on par with Zero Chem – maybe even a little stronger actually, but that opinion will probably vary between individuals.  Don’t mistake relaxation for sleepiness here either, I actually felt and continued to feel wide awake during my session.  I could have snugged down deep with blankets and pillows and drifted off if I’d already been tired, no doubt there, but it didn’t trigger a sense of tiredness of its own.

Bali Diesel Smoke isn’t going to inspire any great works of art or fuel passion in the hearts of the apathetic, but it sure will put a gentle hand on your shoulder and encourage you to slow down and smell the flowers for a second.  Overall, I felt like I was removed from the rush of society and daily life for a half an hour and I’d recommend it to anyone who needs to just stop everything for a little bit and take a breather.

Pros:
Relaxing
Calming
Works well in a water pipe and not harsh
Subtle scent and taste

Cons:
Looks unappealing
Difficulty focusing eyes
Could lure a tired person to sleep

I received my Organic Farms Cali Crunch herbal kush yesterday and was excited to see what all the
hype is about. First off the packaging was first rate. The screw top plastic container it came in is a
nifty little jar that I will be re- using again and again long after the contents are used up. I got the
1.5 g size and let me tell you: there is a lot more herb stuffed into the jar then I expected to get. This
will definitely last for more than a session or two. I didn’t notice any specifics on the labeling about
exactly what type of herb this was but it does say 100% natural and it looked it. There seemed to be
about three or four different types of herbs in the mix which were mostly light greenish with some
red bits and virtually no stems which I was happy to see. I’ve noticed that other herb brands have
an unusually high content of stems and shake but not this Organic Farms Cali Crunch. A definite
plus! Overall the color and texture was very pleasing and I had no problems breaking it up to pack a
bowl with.

The before- burn smell was very mild -a common plant smell, that did not extend away from the
herb at all which means that it is basically undetectable when the jar is opened, another plus!
Lighting it I did not notice much of a change in odor besides a normal plant/flower like smell not
unlike potpourri but much milder. It was definitely very low key. Taking the first puff there is
definitely a bit of harshness but only briefly and no urge to cough. The taste is akin to the smell of it
burning, neither good nor bad. There were no immediate effects but after a minute or two I began
to notice a definite euphoria and a heightening of my senses. I think I giggled and there was a smile
on my face. This light- headedness lasted far longer than I was accustomed to with other brands
and I found myself wanting to put on some music and enjoy the moment. I was definitely functional
after inhaling it but there was also enough “zoning” to take me out of the norm and make the high
thoroughly enjoyable.

I took a drive down the street for some fast food and had no trouble driving and absolutely no
paranoia. The majority of the effects lasted for about 20 minutes and then began to subside in the
next 10 to 15 minutes after that. This was also a pleasant surprise as some of the other brands
I’ve tried didn’t last even half as long and nowhere near as pleasurable. I packed another bowl
and found that the harshness of my first puff was even less than the first but the effects were not.
Round two was just as pleasurable and long lasting as the first time which also was a pleasant
surprise. Overall I would give this product and A+ across the board- in terms of quality, quantity
and packaging. I’ve already ordered more and will continue to do so in the future. Way to go
Organic Farms Cali Crunch!

The best thing about the smoke market is the vast array of choices smokers have. If you like strong
smoke, you are going to find a wide range of products to fit the need. On the other hand, if you like
smoother and milder smokes, you are going to find that easily too. Warped Natural Solid Smoke is
one that the enthusiasts of milder smokes will thoroughly enjoy. In this package, you are going to
get 3 oz. of the blend and that is enough to give you a great experience. This is a completely natural
blend, so you won’t have to worry about any harsh or harmful chemicals. The blend is like instant
relaxation in a package! If you had a hard day at work or are particularly stressed, light up some Warped Natural and likely you are going to quickly see all the stress melt away.

Kratom, Wild Lettuce and Egyptian Blue Lily are three of the main ingredients in this blend. If you
know anything about them on their own, then you know how potent each one is alone. Combined,
it is a bit milder, but unique. The hash cake you find in the re-sealable package is convenient and a
good size for single-use smokers. I used my butane lighter to start off the night and quickly felt the
smoke taking effect. One warning, the first few puffs out of your pipe may be harsh. This is normal
and as you keep smoking, it dissipates somewhat giving a solid but moderate effect. I even enjoyed
the green alien with the strange eyes giving the peace sign (wink, wink) and the space ship warping
away through the starry, starry night.

Now for the exciting part: I did not find this particular blend to be particularly blissful, dreamy,
ecstatic, or gleeful. I would tend to describe it more as leisurely, restful, refreshing, and alleviating.
It is definitely not a sharp or jarring feeling, but rather mind- altering in the sense that it turned
my racing thoughts into fluffy and pleasurable ones. In particular, I was having problems with my
girlfriend at the time, and when I sat down to smoke, the Warped Natural Solid got me thinking of
all the good times she and I used to have, until finally my mind was completely clear and the weight
of the current situation was lifted off of my shoulders.

As time wore on, and I got deeper and deeper into the smoke, I did notice a bit of shakiness on
the part of objects in the background. The clocks on the wall seemed to drift into the blue paint. I
closed my eyes, but did not notice any sort of dizziness. In fact, I had a strange urge to re- open my
eyes and upon doing so I noticed an increased awareness. For fifteen or twenty minutes (according
to the clocks) I enjoyed visual distortion that seemed to coincide with a deepening relaxation. As
the effects wore off, the clocks had stopped moving and I found myself overtaken by a refreshing
stillness. All in all, I recommend Warped Natural Solid Smoke Extra Strength. It is great for those
who like to enjoy a relaxing smoke with certain visual “effects” without being overwhelmed and
disturbed by the experience.
