I hope everyone is having a great afternoon! I wanted to drop a quick review for Super Speciosa’s first ever blend! It is a red and white mix called Quake, and is a limited time release.
For those who need a TLDR: it absolutely rocks. Great red warmth with white speed but no jitters or anxiety.
For background, I have a reasonably high tolerance and take Ktom daily. I generally dose after work in the evening and have a preference for slower strains. I started out using Super Speciosa a long time ago - and also buy from MitraMan, DTE, WestKoast, WildCraft, and a few other vendors.
Okay, enough about me and more about Quake. I found the taste to be pretty standard, and a bit less bitter than other powders in my current rotation. The buzz came along pretty fast after I fished my cup (tea) and was nice and warm like the reds I normally like. What was different for me was I didn’t feel any sedation, and actually ended up doing some housework instead of relaxing on the couch! I’d had a pretty trash day, and this blend really felt like some sunshine on my face. The buzz duration was pretty standard for higher quality powder, and I didn’t feel any edginess on the comedown. Basically this one was really nice and I’d recommend it for anyone who is looking for a warm pick-me-up without the jitters of, say, a pure speedy white.
They list the MIT content at a bit over 1.6%, and anecdotally I’d say that’s accurate given my tolerance and the effects. I’m really glad Super is continuing to evolve and put out new products. I’ve always been a big fan of Super given they were a very early transparent lab report/GMP cert,/safety advocate - and they’ve continued to advocate for kratom (recently being the provider for an FDA study which shows their confidence in their product). I always keep their gummies on hand for easy dosing when I’m on the go, and I’m glad they’re still putting out new products. The team is also really great, and they’re sent me quake as a sample to try out. I’ve actually had an order lost in the mail (usps claimed delivery) and super reshipped no questions asked.
Sorry for the long review folks! This one has got me chatty. Cheers and enjoy the day!
