- classic tan-licorice variant- Comments:
So first, let me say that I found Alpha to be a really nice guy - courteous, prompt replies, and genuinely seems to care about customers. When I was scrambling to find a vendor in stock while Agora was SNAFUing, he seemed to show real concern about me getting what I was looking for. If this were a review purely of customer service, he would absolutely get highest marks.
That said... the MDMA I got from him was good, but not great. It was a mixture of medium-sized crystals and powder, a kind of rosy-tan color (darker than champagne, I would say), with a strong licorice smell. It crushed up to a lighter tan color. Reagents seemed on point. From left to right: marquis, mandelin, mecke, simons - after 30 seconds, and again after half an hour. marquis fizzled straight to black, with a slow fade to charcoal gray over the next half-hour; mandelin turned a kind of dark purplish-brown; mecke also went black very quickly; and simons went intense dark blue. I tested it side-by-side with a bit of leftover MDMA from Apollonian and the reagent reactions looked essentially identical, in fact.
However, IMO the experience of the roll was not quite on par with the other MDMA I've gotten from the darknet (Snapback and Apollonion - Apollonian especially was absolutely top-notch, the best I've ever had). Here was our dosing schedule:
(T-3): Supplement with ALCAR, grapeseed, green tea extract, COQ10, and fish oil (we took these early due to logistics). I always take supplements.
(T-0): Dose 125 mg in capsules on a mostly empty stomach
(T+1 - 1.5): Very, very slowly start to come up. Some of us have to take a bit more to feel it.
(T+1.5 - 2): Booster of 50 or 100 mg. Most of us didn't really feel many effects from this, or felt only an increase in stimulation but no additional roll-like effects.
(T+4): Clear come down. Given the long come-up, we were rolling for about 3 hours. The next hour afterwards felt drained, detached, etc. - not a crash per se, but the night was definitely over. On the plus side, little to no hangover and a nice afterglow the next day!
Overall, the roll was energetic, exciting, and fun (not speedy per se, just high-energy), but had less empathy and lovey-dovey intimacy than I'm used to. This, in combination with the short duration, left me feeling a bit lackluster about this batch. We had about 10 people take it together, including everyone from relative newbies to old-school ravers, and all agreed that this was not their favorite product ever, although still good of course (None of us had rolled for at least the past five months, FYI). I would think this was just an off night for me personally if we didn't have such a consensus among the group .
Don't get me wrong: I have no doubts that this was MDMA, and a million things can affect a roll - set, setting, diet, mood, psychological state... And we definitely did have a good time on it, too! I'm not trying to badmouth AlphaDawg in any way; I think he's a great guy who works hard to have excellent product. I just wanted to throw my two cents in the ring, because when I was doing my research, I saw SO many people saying that AlphaDawg was the best MDMA ever. For whatever reason, our experience happened to be more subdued. On the other hand, I know AlphaDawg is waiting for a re-up right now, so his next batch may well be different anyway :)
Now, apropos of this conversation, a question:
What is the absolute best MDMA one can currently purchase domestically in the US, assuming cost is a far distant second concern compared to purity/quality? I have an event later in the summer where I'd give a lot to be really loved-up. Alternately - any leads on the mythical unicorn of the legendary 6-APB??
Probably just the synthesis, I've had edgier , sharper rolls and of course those empathetic rolls. The dominos weren't empathetic at all, the bitcoins on the other hand..
