Mistakingly purchased some Delta 9 rubbish here. Super nice folks working there
Great shop!! Clean and great service friendly staff. Mai tai flower 🤤🍀🤙🏾🙌🏾
I will sometimes go to this dispensary in Hilo, but it is very pricey and on my most recent trip to H.E it was a big let down. The 49.00 half ounce turned out to be terrible (the price was nice) but the flowers (4 separate 8th bottles) was extra brittle crispy dry making the smoke extremely rough to enjoy. Was a BIG let down.
One Star ⭐️ - Disappointed with the Product Quality I had high hopes for Hawaii Ethos, especially with their friendly and welcoming staff, who were genuinely helpful and kind throughout my visit. Unfortunately, the product quality was a huge letdown. I picked up some hash rosin, and it was hands down the worst I’ve tried — terrible consistency, looked unrefined, and had a harsh trim-like smell and taste that was really off-putting. Definitely not what you'd expect for the price. To top it off, the eighth I purchased weighed in at only 3.1g when I checked it at home — shorting customers is never acceptable, intentional or not. Really disappointed overall. Cool people, but product quality and consistency need serious work.
They Are very over priced! I know exactly what it takes and the expenses involved in making or distilling their "medical product" with it is.It would be nice if there wasn't as much talk about how HIGH it will make you feel.Should be how WELL it can make you feel!
