Good buy overall, not as good as some of the other sativa strands on here.
Old Adster (verified owner) –
Good sativa. Not a favourite but most definitely does the trick in the morning. Spicy on inhale and sharp on exhale but the energetic effects last a while.

This is some excellent stuff. A very bright and energetic high. The smell and taste are fantastic. You can smoke this from wake up until whenever and never burn out. Easily and highly recommended.

A bit lighter “daytime” smoke for when you don’t want to be locked to the couch for hours. Tastes great, uplifting, really fantastic nug.

My second time buying red Congo. She’s exactly how I remember her too. Good buds, great sell and bag appeal. Smokes perfectly, and lifts you up to get through your day with happy hour lucky feeling as well as an edge of creativity and motivation. Daytime weed for when you have some chores!

Nice slightly spicy taste but not exactly packing the punch I was looking for.

Good for daytime use. Very easy going
PantherCap (verified owner) –
Very fragrant with notes of spice and citrus. This racy, sativa dominate flower goes well with a cup of coffee and a to-do list.

Red Congo. – April. I have been waiting for this strain for a while. I was happy with it. Spicy, citrus, smooth sativa, fantastic day time spring weed. No couch lock with nice buds. Orange/red hairs- bust up nice. Would 100% buy again.

I had many surprises with this strain. First off it came in a bag without a fancy label, Red Congo was written on with a sharpie… no big deal… just the first surprise of many. The bud I got looks nothing like the photos! surprise 2! It is dense and coated in crystals and the bud in light green almost pale green. Smell is very fruity and sweet. surprise 3! I did not smoke this (only vaped). I can’t believe what a true sativa this is. As the others noted, I became energetic and organized my garage and cleaned my backyard, even though I had no intention to before using. The flavor is very nice, very terpy. surprise 4! This is a perfect day time or even wake up flower. It is a little racy, but as long as you tell yourself it’s just the weed, you will be fine. I really highly recommend this and it was nothing at all like what I expected.

Classic Red Congo look and smoke! Pure sativa so it feels a bit light until you realize you’re breezing through spring cleaning with a smile on your face. Great for getting stuff done!

The effects are good, pretty clear headed and focused, but not quite worth the price and rating. Potency isn’t overwhelming so its good as an earlier thing for myself. Buds are pretty small. Smell is there but nothing wild. Overall I like it, just nothing special.

Smells sweet/spicy, not much earthy scent. Decent however was expecting a bit more potency. Felt like a hybrid high.
kushcroissant (verified owner) –
Really good but not as strong as I was anticipating.
Diabonin (verified owner) –
Looks like legit red congo.

Best sativa I’ve ever smoked.

Got this as my other half oz from the mix and match oz deal, this stuff really wowed me as my first time trying Red Congo. Gorgeous nugs all very well trimmed, a few small loose nugs, one fat nug weighing 3.5Gs and a bunch of larger nugs, really cool bud structure as I got some really tall and skinny nugs that were dense and really crystally. Hits like your smoking air, super light on the lungs but leaves you with a really solid sativa buzz. I’m more of a hybrid guy but this stuff really got me.
