Taiga Laboratories Review
Taiga Laboratories is a brand that specializes in high-quality CBD vape oils, with many different strains. Their vape cartridges are the closest thing to bringing the hemp plant straight to your vaporizer.
Now:
You might be wondering, how effective are Taiga labs’ vaping products and what do they taste like?
I took the guesswork out of this and Iโm going to be as detailed as possible in this review of Taiga Laboratories.
Before I get to the review, I like to give some information on the company, that way we know exactly what kind of CBD they offer.
Information About Taiga Laboratories
As mentioned above, Taiga Laboratories only sells CBD vaping cartridges, with a variety of well-crafted strains.
Their vape cartridges donโt contain any added flavors, just pure hemp taste. Now each strain has variances in taste and subtle note changes.
Taiga Labs is comprised of scientists, chemists, farmers, and designers (what a team!). They strive to put out high-quality CBD.
โWe breed, grow and extract all of our own biomass from a special strain of hemp specifically designed so that each chemical compound is in perfect harmony with each other to create a truly full-spectrum product.โ -Taiga Laboratories
Here are some interesting points about Taiga Laboratories:
- Their products are all full spectrum, which gives you the synergistic effects of all the cannabinoids (with less than 0.1% THC)
- They have third party lab testing (provided by Green Leaf Lab) validating the claims of their CBD products.
- They use the supercritical CO2 Extraction method to extract their CBD. This is the preferred extraction method, as it preserves the full plant without leaving behind any harmful solvents.
Now:
One minor complaint I have about the companies website is that it is hard to gather some of this information, otherwise, it is pretty simple to navigate and you find exactly what you are looking for.
Everything looks good as far as the companyโs information is concerned.
Letโs take a look at some of their products.
Taiga Laboratories Products
Simple enough. Taga Laboratories has 7 different CBD vape cartridges to choose from. These are either Sativas or Hybrids :
Hybrids
- Blue Dream
- Gelato
- Girl Scout Cookies
- Skywalker OG
- Strawberry Banana
Sativas
- Sour Diesel
- Super Lemon Haze
*Sativa strains tend to be more energizing, while on the other end of the spectrum, Indicas tend to be more relaxing, and Hybrids are a mix of both strains.
That was simple enough, letโs get on with my Taiga Laboratories Review.
My Taiga Laboratories Review
I was sent three cartridges to review:
- Gelato
- Sour Diesel
- Girl Scout Cookies
The Packaging
The first thing I noticed was the beautiful artwork on the package. Inside the package, you receive the stainless steel and glass cartridge, neatly and tightly packed in a styrofoam case, with rubber protective tips on each end.
Now Iโm going to go through each cartridge individually and give my critique on the flavors and effects, then I will evaluate the company as a whole.
Keep in mind, when I review the flavors, I have never tried marijuana or smoked any flavorless hemp products in the past, so I am giving my unbiased opinion on the flavors and what I noticed.
Gelato
Flavor Profile
The flavor of the Gelato CBD cartridge was quite pleasing.
I noticed predominant citrus (this is probably attributed to the limonene terpenes) and peppery notes.
Another thing that was noticeable was that this had slightly grassy undertones, maybe a tad bit earthy and tasted a little like frankincense (if you ever burned frankincense, youโd know what Iโm talking about).
The flavor was very bold (thatโs why I put this in bold). This had a really good flavor, I enjoyed it very much.
The Effects
I had a very stressful day prior to trying this strain. It seemed to take an otherwise stressful day and calmed me down.
I had a million things on my mind. If you have ever blogged, then you know the stresses that come with it.
If my mind had a volume knob, it went from a 10 down to a 2. It was very serene.
This strain helped me become clear-focused and not worry about all the little things in the back of my mind.
What else:
This strain definitely increased my appetite and reduced nausea.
It wasnโt that good for insomnia though.
Taiga Laboratories did a great job on this one!
The Price
Each one of these CBD vape cartridges costs $50.
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Sour Diesel
Flavor Profile
This one had very strong earthy notes of leather and pepper. Only very slight citrus undertones.
This was also quite enjoyable. The flavor strength was a little more mild on this one.
The Effects
This strain mildly lifts your spirits and makes you feel pleasant, overall happy.
This one goes deep and makes your body feel more physically relaxed, as if you have attended a spa, and are in a deep state of mental and physical relaxation.
The effects are more apparent with this strain than the gelato and are very relaxing.
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Girl Scout Cookies
Flavor Profile
Girl Scout Cookies to me doesnโt seem as it has as diverse of a flavor profile. It has predominately earthy with smokey undertones.
The strength of the flavor is very mild. This seems like a good strain to start with if you havenโt tried any others.
The Effects
The effects of Girl Scout Cookies were very similar to sour diesel, but more on the calming side, rather than the spirit-lifting side.
This one was also very good for increasing appetite and reducing nausea (I could go for some real girl scout cookies after this strain).
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
My Favorite
I think in this review, the Gelato strain was my favorite. It was the most pleasant flavor wise and I enjoyed it the longest. But the Sour Diesel had the most apparent effects.
Taiga Laboratories Overall Review
Overall, I felt that Taiga Laboratories produces very high-quality CBD vape products with an authentic experience.
I am not really a fan of vaping, but I did enjoy these products. The quality of these products are apparent with the flavors and effects, they are not masked with any additive flavors.
Overall these vape cartridges put me in a more relaxed state and increased my appetite.
However, they didnโt do much for insomnia and if I vaped them too long, I would get a slight burn in my nose (nothing outrageous).
Taiga Laboratories did the job and worked really well.
I’ve been avidly using CBD to deal with my anxiety, and have been fortunate to do so successfully. I started this blog to share my experience and knowledge with as many people as possible.
