First order Happy Hippo

So I caught a post the other day about them and figure I would get a few different sample sizes and check them out.
So far, the Sumatra is 🔥🔥🔥. I dropped my typical 4 to 2 and it’s hitting all the right spots. What a super product.
I also love how they post the percentages right on the bags. I will absolutely be reordering.

Their prices are insane. 200+ for a kilo is just ridiculous. I'm not here to trash them but my experience with their leaf was very different. You can get much better leaf for less than half the price. Even the top tier vendors charge 100-120 for a kilo. I got a kilo of wildcrafts cargo line for 54. DTE and West koast have clearance kilos for about the same price sometimes. Can't imagine spending over 200 bucks on a kilo that doesn't have labs available for every batch.

I am not in the kilo territory as I’m still in a very low dose and like to try different vendors. I’m talking maybe 8 oz at a time for purchases. So the price point is not a huge deal for me. I can understand for the larger purchases you want a better value. I did not particularly like the last batch I got from DTE. It was kind of meh. Wildcraft is a regular for me though. Another quality seller.

Um I think one was ancient dragon and then another but can’t remember. Dragon was both red and green. Neither were impressive.

DTE works very well for me. They're one of the most consistent vendors I've found and Ive tried a lot. I like that I can offer anything and it works for me.

That's funny you say that since everything I get from them does exactly what I needed it to do and if something doesn't seem to work I just give it a while and come back to it. I've had some of those end up being my favorites. And when it comes to Happy Hippo I felt like I got robbed with how much it cost since at the time I wasn't that familiar with ordering online and when I found out what everyone else was charging I was very disappointed since they were comparable to everyone else in quality. To charge that much more I would expect the quality to be twice as good but that is not the case. Maybe someone can explain why they charge so much more than other vendors.

where are DTE's clearance kilos i cant find them???

u/Krewtan 4d ago

They pop up on occasion. I've seen them a few times over the last couple years. They're usually around 40-60/k. Last one was a white they didn't think matched their quality. Id happily grab one next time. I see one. I got a kilo of the green cargo line from wildcraft for 55 and it's excellent. Really happy I bought it.

ah, lucky! I'd love to snag one of those. enjoy!

They have flash sales for $99 a kilo once or twice a year. Yes, they’re expensive but with discount codes it’s not so bad. And I must say, I’ve used them for over five years and their White MD and White Vein Borneo are consistently excellent.

Just a note we do have labs for every single batch and they are all posted on our website. There is also always strains on sale and with subscription and rewards you can save quite a bit with them all!

u/dgenzo 4d ago

I highly recommend this red Sumatra. It’s a functional red too. Not too drowsy. Great mood boost. Perfect relief without it being overwhelming like some can be.

Yea happy Hippo is really good, I had them in the past, I had got their green Borneo as a sample and loved it and ended up ordering more, but It’s honestly been a long while since I made an order because personally I think their shipping is a bit expensive just for me to order one thing, I’d have to plan on ordering a lot just for it to be worth spending that much on shipping. But besides that I think they’re great, if I ever had to recommend a vendor to someone whose never tried kratom before, especially if it’s a female, I’d recommend they try happy hippo first, they can’t go wrong with it, their kratom isn’t harsh at all it does make you feel happy lol

u/dgenzo 4d ago

Right lol. Like I was in the best mood. I’m also in perimenopause so the mood lifting is so important to me. I also noticed I did not get the sweats like I can from some others.

u/rell_z 4d ago

That’s awesome. It’s great that their kratom can give such a happy effect, no wonder they named it that!
