A couple of years ago Spice was the major herbal incense on the market. Everyone had tried it and we all were agreed; it worked. There were so many varieties of Spice that suited every single palate; Silver, Gold, Diamond, Tropical, Arctic. As far as Spice was concerned there truly was something for everyone.

It is easy to forget how much Spice dominated the market for a while. The true innovators of herbal incense blends, for a long time there was nothing to compete. Slowly but surely, however, other brands began to emerge.

Maybe this was the beginning of the end for Spice. Suddenly everyone had heard of this amazing blend of herbs that produced such languid and relaxing effects. As soon as the Government began to take notice, the typical knee-jerk reactions occurred and Spice, along with all its competitors, was wiped out and banned.

This caused a great deal of distress, obviously, to those who had become fans of herbal incense blends. Thankfully for the fans the markets have always been dominated by supply and demand. Even though the supply had dried up the demand was still there. Soon the clever boffins began working on brand new blends that contained none of the banned ingredients, and now we have such wonderful new blends as Blast Off, Tai High and Shokotsu, you’ll wonder what the fuss over Spice was all about in the first place!

I first saw transparent rolling papers many years ago now but in my eyes they were never a feasible option that you would use on a regular basis. They were more of a novelty item that you might use to impress your friends.

However, I recently found a transparent paper brand that goes by the name of Invisibles Roilling Papers. These transparent papers offer something that I’ve not seen before. They offer a selection of different flavours ranging from sour apple to smoked coffee. When used they create a rich, flavoursome smoke that leaves your mouth watering.

I also notice that where the older transparent papers can be quite hard to roll due to them not sticking properly, these don’t seem to have that issue and stick like a dream.

Invisibles truly have revolutionized the transparent rolling paper market, turning them from a novelty item to a feasible every day option.

Today I’m going to be giving you a brief comparison between Dragonfly Flavoured Papers and Brown Sugar rolling papers. The reason I have chosen to compare these two products in particular is that, on first look, you could easily assume that they are very similar. However, in actual fact they both offer a completely different smoking experience.

The only real similarities between the two items is the fact that they are both flavoured and that they are both available in king-size but that is where the similarity ends.

The Brown Sugar papers have an almost blunt like thickness and consistency that when burnt creates a really thick, tasty smoke. However, unlike blunts, they are still very easy to roll as they take the same form as regular rolling papers.

The Dragonfly papers are equally as flavoursome but have the consistency of a regular rolling paper. This creates a lighter, less dense smoke when burnt which is very easy on the lungs. Another massive plus for Dragonfly papers is the fact they come in a foil sealed re-sealable packet. This means they stay fresh and flavoursome for longer.

In my last post I gave a brief review of the incense blend Super Chillem. I really enjoyed it so when I heard about the new stronger Chillem XXX, I had to give it a try.

The consistency and look of Chillem XXX was very much the same as Super Chillem. It was very fluffy and again, required no grinder as it was very easy to crumble straight into a joint. I found that it smoked very smoothly without any sideburn what so ever, which is always a plus.

The effects were similar to the Super version but were even more potent and I found that it lasted even longer. One joint took effect for about an hour and a half, which is quite long compared to some other incense blends that only last 30mins.

Overall I really enjoyed this product and think it will become one of my regular smokes from now on.

I mentioned this incense in a recent post regarding my top 5 incense blends so I thought I would give it a full review.

A few weeks back I ordered a 3 gram bag of Super Chillem from the internet.  When it arrived I was eager to try it out so immediately rolled one up. The consistency was very fluffy and I even found that a grinder was not necessary as it was very easy just to crumble it straight into the joint.

It also burned very even and smoothly where some of the others I have tried have a tendency to side burn. However the flavour is not the best I’ve tasted.

As for the effects, as I mentioned in the top 5 post, it made me feel extremely relaxed and lasted for roughly 45mins to an hour which is reasonably long. For me, it made an awesome night time smoke, as if I had a few joints it would almost definitely put me to sleep.

Overall I thought it was a pretty good incense blend and would recommend giving it a try if you get the chance.

Due to there being such a large selection to choose from now days, it can be a bit daunting finding one that suits your needs. With this in mind I decided to put together a list of my top 5 energy supplements so that, hopefully, you can find something that works for you.

Jumping Nuns : The large energy boost and long lasting effects with little to no come down put these little beauties in top spot.

Bumblebee Super Energy Product : A massive yet clear headed boost of energy, again, with very little come down.

Diablo Energy Pills :  These have been around for a lot longer than most and never fail to do the trick but occasionally leave me with a bit of an almost hung over feeling.

Hummer Energy Pills:  Again, one of the older generation energy products, they are strong and can last up to 12 hours per dose. So if you need to be up early the next day, I’d stay clear.

Giggle Laughing Pills : Not the strongest, energy wise, but made it to the top 5 due to their almost euphoric effects. If enjoyed in the right company, these will have you laughing all night.

So there it is. My top 5 energy supplements. I hope this helps you to find a product that works to your preference.

In my ever lasting search for the best energy pill I stumbled along these little beauties the Bumblebee Super Energy Product. When they arrived through the post on Friday, I was a little put off by the rather cheap looking packaging but I decided to give them a try. You’ll have to excuse the pun but these pills truly did have me ‘buzzing’ all night.

Having quite a high tolerance for this kind of product I decided to take two of the four that came in the packet. In hind sight I think one probably would have been enough as all I was doing was playing computer games all day long (which isn’t exactly taxing, energy wise).

Other than a massive rush of energy and talking my friends’ ear off all day, I didn’t really notice any other effects (good or bad). It lasted for about five hours but I suspect that it would have been shorter if I had of only taken one pill.

As always, keep yourself well hydrated or you may find you get a bit of a headache or slight dizziness. Overall I would say that this is quite a good product and does what is said on the packet

In anticipation of the recent bank holiday weekend and having two parties to attend, I decided to order some energy snuff. The product I would normally order is called Blowout but when ordering I noticed that there was a new herbal energy snuff called Konked. On the site that I ordered it from it claimed that it was a more refined and potent version of Blowout, so I decided to give it a try.

The consistency of Konked is pretty much the same as Blowout (a fine white powder) and is sold in 1 gram packs. I decided to try a little bit the day before the party so that I knew in advance what the effects would be like. The small amount that I tried was actually more effective than I was expecting and was definitely stronger than Blowout.

That weekend me and a few of my mates managed to get through three packs of the stuff and none of us had any kind of a come down. The day/days after, I did feel a bit rough but I’m pretty sure this was down to the copious amounts of alcohol I had consumed and not the Konked.

Overall I would say this is an awesome energy snuff and most definitely will be buying it again.

There are so many different incense blends in the legal high market these days, so it can be very hard to figure out which is best for your purpose.

Today I am going to give you a list of my top 5 incense blends that are legal so that, hopefully, you can figure out which is best for you.

Blast Off! – Its delicious fruity flavor and its mellowing, giggly effects put Blast Off! at the top of my list.

Tai High Super Strength – Its fluffy consistency and “Super Strength” bring  Tai High in at a close second.

Super Chillem – Again, it has a very nice consistency and gorgeous “super”  chilled effects make it an awesome smoke.

Magic Gold – Like its predecessor, it has an awesomely fluffy consistency and makes for a very pleasant smoke.

Shokotsu – Made by the same company as Magic Gold, it is pretty similar but has an amazing blueberry aroma.

So there you have it, my top 5 incense blends. I hope it helps you to find one that suits your preference.

It’s been a while since I’ve taken anything energy based, preferring the calmness of the legal incense. However, given the nice weather this weekend, some friends and I decided to go to the park and play some Frisbee.

We all decided to try out some Jumping Nuns energy pills that I got of the internet about a month ago. (I had been saving them for the right moment)

For me, they took about 35-45 minutes to kick in and when they did, I felt an instant boost of energy. There was no loss of co-ordination that I have felt when taking some other energy pills, some of which gave me an almost drunk feeling.

The Jumping Nuns left me feeling very clear headed, bubbly, energetic and made for the most intensive Frisbee session of my life.

I did find that they gave me occasional hot flushes but this may have just been from the heat and all of the running around. Also, like all energy pills, make sure you keep yourself well hydrated. One of my friends got a bit of a headache but this went away quite quickly after a few glasses of water.

That night I did not feel any ill effects of a comedown and the day after, I woke up feeling fresh as a daisy.

This is an awesome energy supplement that I will probably be using again at some point this summer.
