Hello Canadian MOM fans! We love MOMs too. At A HIGHer Vantage MOM Reviews we pride ourselves in bringing you honest, in depth reviews of current products being sold by MOMs. We recently received a package from AC Medical on September 1st containing there Red Congo flower, Tuna Kush flower, Master Kush flower and Kings Kush shatter.

We spoke with Tony @ AC Medical as we had a couple of questions and all customer service inquiries were dealt with in a very prompt and timely manner with service being both professional and courteous. It shouldn’t be remarkable when this happens but so many MOMs don’t get this right. The package arrived two days after we received our tracking number. Bubble mailer envelope, plain legal style envelope, two layers of vac seal. Excellent packaging.

Red Congo

Cuurently unavailable but I believe they stock it relatively frequently – and it sells out fast. Finally we got to see what all the fuss was about. It was big, fluffy, sticky, red and had a very unique nose profile. Sweet but spicy. Really tickled the nose hairs in that way that good weed does, the same kind of burn as ammonia but much more pleasant as it’s coming from a beautiful bud and not the business end of your housecat. The nose alone tells you that you are working with a pure sativa here.

All three reviewers had this as their overwhelming favourite from the 3 strains we received. This is a wonderfully focused and uplifting high, perfect for daytime but we smoked it deep into the evening as well. We didn’t find the smoke to be overly thick or harsh in anyway and the ash burns clean white. The taste profile of AC Med’s Red Congo follows very closely to the nose – spicy and sweet. It reminds me of pumpkin spice or apple pie spice. This is something that everyone should have a lot of at all times. I can’t think of anything I’d rather be smoking in the daytime.

Tuna Kush

If you like the smell of kush you’ll love this. Tuna is known for being both pungent in smell and very high in potency and I would say that this is an accurate representation of both of those things. It was a nice orange and lighter green hue with a lot of visible trichomes and a great, pungent, earthy nose. We find that a lot of kushs – or is it kushes? – fall into two different categories when describing the nose – Earthy Earthiness or Piney Earthiness. This particular batch of Tuna Kush is more earthy than piney but smells equally strongly of gas. Type of bud where it smells like you’ve been smoking weed in the room as soon as you open the bag.

What blew us away with this one was how thick the smoke is. Even a small drag on a joint or a small bowl produced huge clouds of thick smoke. It almost seems to stick to the roof of your mouth. This was a unique sensation that none of us had had. Tasted very heavily of kush on the exhale and this one is a very heavy hitter. I’d recommend this only for advanced users who love kush and are looking for something to knock ’em on their ass. We most enjoyed this strain within 2 hours of bedtime. The ash is white but not quite as clean white as the Red Congo. Of the three nice sized nugs we received, one of those nugs had two fully developed seeds. No complaints from us as it did not affect the overly potency of the product, we find fully developed seeds much easier to removed than partially developed seeds, and we fully intend to stick them into some soil. I would pay 220 for an ounce of this as I find it very valuable to have a strong “bedtime” weed on hand.

Master Kush

Nicely formed nugs with a ton of visible trichomes. The nose on this was a mixture of earthy kushness and some sweetness, I couldn’t pick out one distinct sweet or fruit smell but it certainly is sweet. When we first received this we had a very hard time believing that this was available for 139 an ounce but upon further inspection we realized why – there were a few seeds in the batch. Now, at first you make think this is a shame but I disagree, mostly because without seeds, this would never be released at this price point. These buds were headed to the 200-240 price range before the seeds made them more affordable. As well, they are all fully developed seeds and easy to pick out.

Because it went to seed and started to focus it’s energy on that and not on building a super high THC content, this is a kush strain that works for the daytime. Smokes more like a 50-50 hybrid. Overdue it and you are 100% having a nap, I mean it is Master Kush, but I thought it was a great early evening type of smoke. The ash is white-grey, the smoke tastes slightly of kush and slightly sweet. It’s a less-thick smoke that really got the juices flowing for all of us. It was like a really good amuse bouche, tasted good and got you ready for a couple dabs or a heavier hitter later on. We would happily purchase this again, one of our nugs as far more loaded with seeds than the others, and besides, seeds are what you need to grow more. So if you get some fully developed seeds, especially in a strain that usually sells for a lot more than you paid, don’t complain. It’s a good thing.

We also received a sample of the King’s Kush shatter. Our picture failed to work out unfortunately but it was very nice and stable, pull and snap but like actual pull and snap, not sappy, stickiness being sold as pull and snap. It was a nice light yellow tinge and as potent as you would expect for shatter. It’s not currently available on the site so I can’t speak on the price but assuming it is in the $33-$40 / gram range, I would say you would be happy with what you’d get. Ac Medical also does quantity discounts up to 8 grams so it may be worth it to check this one out. A nice, sweet, earthy exhale, no residue on the nail. While we had this we also had a very cheap 17/gram shatter and a very nice 60/gram live resin. This King’s Kush shatter fell perfectly in the middle of those. Again, apologies for the lack of picture.

It should be noted that AC Medical does weekly sales that are always interesting, they have had popcorn Red Congo on for considerably cheaper than the full buds. Currently they have deals on Sour Blueberry and Tahoe Alien OG flowers.
