You ever pop a mango?

Pop Cones – Tropical Mango review

Pop Cones Box
Popping a Mango

 

 

 

Yep I am asking have you ever popped a mango? Me neither, but I did pop a mango flavored terpene pearl from Pop Cones. These cones are made with paper made in France and “hand rolled by a Master Artisan” and it is made in India. The company Pop Cones is based out of Vernon CA. These cones come 6 to a pack for the 1.25 size and it is three for a pack for the king size. They come in 5 different flavors: Banana Cream, Blueberry, Strawberry, Super Sweet, Tropical Mango, and Wild Grape. All of these flavors come in both sizes along with the option of ultra thin cones (bleached paper) or unbleached (brown tint).  We picked up a box from Ascend in Collinsville IL for $5.00. Online they are listed as $4.99 for a box or $79.99 for pack of 24 in any of the sizes. In the 1.25 size they come double stacked with a packing tube to pack your cones. It is the standard small rolled tube of cardboard as a packing stick. I personally threw it away as cannabis gets stuck in the center hole. I use the bamboo sticks that come with the King Palms as they have a pointed and rounded end to use.  The cone was easy enough to pack.

Once you pop 

It works better with a fine ground, not powder but still decently sized flakes. The paper did not have a bad taste or harsh burn to it. It also did not smell like a cigarette burning. I used flower from our last run that has a funky almost rotten fruit smell to it and a spicy fruity funk to it. After it was well lit I popped the terpene pearl that is located at the fat end of cone filter. It is easier to pop than the pearls located in the King Palm hemp wraps.

The terpene pearl adds a little extra boost of flavor to your cannabis product. It is not over powering, but you can definitely taste the added terps with your inhale. The mango pop cone does not have a super fake artificial taste to it but if you have good tasting cannabis this may not be the product for you. 

Who would this product be great for?

This is not a bad product, just a little steep for an everyday use cone at about $0.83 per cone. It is an ideal product to use with sub par cannabis that is lacking flavor, bud that has lost most of its terpenes due to poor storage or old, or if you want to add a little more flavor/different flavor to your smoking experience. It is simple to use and there was no mess after popping the pearl. With King Palms I have experienced pressing to hard or having the pearl not pop but kind of ooze out with the terpene oil. Trust me it makes for a smelly oily mess. It is a better deal than the King Palms infused rolls but in terms of burning length, the King Palms have it beat hands down. Pop Cones are a decent buy if you are in need of a quick flavor boost but you don’t want to use terpene infused papers or tobacco leaf. 

You can order pop cones from the website listed below. They have variety packs along with doing custom orders.
