Beltzzz Live Badder by Head Change
SoGanja Blue Raz Live Resin Infused Soda by SoGanja
Without a doubt , one of my all-time favorite concentrates to ever emerge from the Missouri market is the Beltzzz Live Badder from Head Change . If you ’ ve followed my previous product picks , you ’ ve probably noticed a trend of solventless concentrates holding the standard for me , so for a live badder to come in as one of my all-time favorites speaks volumes . This concentrate treats me like a million dollars every single time I take a dab ! The masterful blend includes Rainbow Beltz , Compound Z , Original Z , and Gush Mints , creating a bright , citrusy , candy-like aroma that fills the olfactory system instantly . With notes of lemon , orange , and sweet candy , users are sure to have the tastiest experience ever . The diverse terpene profile exceeds 7.5 % total terps and consists of ocimene at almost 4 %, with caryophyllene , linalool , and limonene following behind — this profile is one for the record books . You can find this concentrate in weights of 1g and 3.5g baller buckets . Retailing from $ 50 - $ 150 , users typically find this product worth every penny !
When it comes to edibles , sodas and drinks have always been my preference . The rapid onset times , effective dosage control , and overall enjoyability make the sodas my go-to for edibles . SoGanja has unveiled a groundbreaking soda with its Blue Raz flavor . What really sets SoGanja apart is the 25mg live resin infusion in its drinks . SoGanja introduces strain-specific live resin to these tasty sodas , creating an experience not to be missed . Left and right , these sodas are gaining immense popularity , receiving 5-star reviews all the time . Well , they have my 5-star review as well . These sodas expertly combine the perfect balance of flavor and infusion , giving users the best of both worlds . The slightest , most complimentary hint of live resin , paired perfectly with the amazing flavors of this soda , keeps me coming back time and time again . My favorite part of these sodas is their affordability , retailing around $ 15 . When compared to various distillate-infused beverage options , you will taste and feel a noticeable difference . You can find a variety of SoGanja soda flavors , including Root Beer , Strawberry Cream , and Orange Cream .
