Jetty Extracts Review: A More Stylish Brand of Waxes, E-Juices & More

Nugg Team | March 20, 2017 | 3 Comments

Jetty Extracts is a nonprofit founded four years ago in San Diego by surfers with a love of cannabis and a desire to help the ill. Its products, image and ethics totally embody So Cal.

 

Utilizing a retro Americana aesthetic—think pomade, burlesque dancers and raw denim—Jetty has crafted marijuana concentrate products that speak directly to a fashionable young demographic always wanting something different. Their products are detailed, flashy and a great deal fancier than the minimal packaging of most cannabis products.

 

A particular breed of jaded buyer will probably think “vegan über hipster” and approach Jetty Extracts products and reviews with a certain amount of skepticism and bias. It’s understandable; plenty of brands justify a higher price tag by creating products purely designed to appeal to a rebellious youth culture who’s willing to sacrifice quality for an appealing façade.

 

Is Jetty Extracts any different? It sells attractive products, but do they live up to the level of quality promised by their packaging? We’ll review them and find out what the company’s all about. 

 

 

Jetty’s CO2 Extraction 

 

Part of a growing trend in the cannabis industry, Jetty solely makes extracts utilizing a supercritical CO2 extraction method, which is thought by many to produce a cleaner product and experience than those extracted with a solvent (most commonly butane).

 

While some find butane extraction dangerous only in the hands of an unreputable producer, most research points to it creating a product that’ll more often than not contain additives not suitable for human consumption. Jetty’s CO2 method guarantees that the potential dangers of solvent-based extractions are avoided altogether.

 

Jetty goes a step further than some of their competitors by adding back the terpenes that are often lost in the extraction process. Though these are only present in trace amounts (of almost all cannabis strains), they nonetheless act synergistically with cannabinoids and are often medically beneficial.

 

Helping Heal the Sick

 

Another way Jetty goes above and beyond commerce is with their Shelter Project initiative, which provides cancer patients with clean and safe medicinal cannabis oil and/or high CBD plants at no cost. The initiative is backed by donations, volunteers, and Jetty itself, as the company donates 1% of their gross revenue to the cause.

 

Philanthropists, weed activists, and cannabis enthusiasts alike looking to support those in need can rest assured that a part of their purchase goes towards supporting a great cause!

 

While 1% of revenue isn’t much (although it certainly adds up), we’re a growing business ourselves, and respect has to be paid to those who think about more than just money. After all, profits won’t move this industry forward, people will.

 

Jetty Extracts Products

 

The company produces extracts in all basic forms. These include:

 

Vape Pen

Simply combining the Jetty battery with the oil cartridge creates a convenient vape pen. Just push the silver button to produce the ideal dosage. Two or three solid puffs and you’ll be feeling better.

 

The vapor is clean, smooth and doesn’t taste burnt like with some lower-quality concentrates. And Jetty’s wide variety of strains means that Jetty Extracts not only makes an effective product, but can cater to your favorite kind of high and improve almost any ailment.

There’s also a handy leather Jetty Jacket you can tie to almost anything and take your vaporizer on the go! Now that’s something you don’t see everyday, and is testament to this company’s focus on delivering an exceptional, high-end product.

 

Vape Cartridges

Jetty Pure and Gold cartridges each contain 700mg of clear, clean cannabis concentrate. The Pure cartridges contain between 60 and 70% THC; the Gold cartridges around 80% THC. Pure cartridges sell for $40-50 and gold for $60-70. Each comes packaged in a small labeled burlap sack, which itself is housed in a rustic tube that looks more suited for incense than oil. In addition to their stylish packaging, Jetty also makes indica and sativa CBD blend cartridges (2:1 THC:CBD ratio) that have up to 30% CBD.

 

Bonus: [thrive_2step id=’2036′]Download a free PDF[/thrive_2step] that includes the Best & Worst vape cartridges from 2016 & 2017. This has been our most popular guide so far.

 

They’re available in a variety of familiar strains like Jack Herer, Trainwreck, Blue Dream, Green Crack and Grape Ape. Jetty’s website doesn’t list all of them so you’re dependent on what your local dispensary has in stock, or you could just use getnugg.com and find several dispensaries that have the one you’re looking for, and will deliver to your home.

 

Vape Refill E-liquids

These e-juices come with a dropper and contain 1000mg of flavorful oil in each 3ml bottle. In addition to refilling your own Jetty pen it can be used to replenish almost any empty cartridge or standard liquid vaporizer. Available in the same wide variety of strains as the cartridges.

CO2 Waxes

Jetty Extracts CO2 Wax

 

Jetty’s wax is offered in indica, sativa, hybrid, and a variety of specific strains, as well as in two levels of refinement: gold and raw. Jetty’s gold wax is a stronger, purer honey-colored concentrate while their raw wax is a darker amber since it isn’t as refined in order to preserve the medically-beneficial terpenes. Sold in 1g containers for $40-45.

 

Dablicator

 

This is where Jetty has a major leg up on its competitors. This discreet, pen-like hybrid holds 1ml of their pure, strain specific CO2 concentrates in one handy dabbing device specifically designed to deliver clean, easy application. Even the packaging looks great. And with a reasonable $45-55 price tag, you get a big bang for your buck.

Just twist to reveal the button, push, and apply the desired amount of wax or hash oil you want to dab. Or you could add a tad to your next bowl, joint or blunt for extra aid; if you don’t smoke or vape, the pre-filled wax is safe and delicious, so you can put a dollop on your favorite edible, food, dish or drink.

 

Remember, concentrates naturally pack a punch so don’t be fooled by the small amount and use too much.

 

Despite the container/tool/applicator’s efficiency, users have complained that its twist-and-push function is complicated and can cause more frequent malfunctions that end up accidentally wasting or adding an extra amount of concentrate.

 

Since then Jetty Extracts has redesigned the dablicator by simplifying the process: just twist to release a proper and mess-free amount of wax or oil, guaranteed.

Jetty also sells empty, refillable dablicators in packs of 25 for dispensaries, other concentrate producers and anyone who wants to see their name on this versatile invention.

 

Paying for More Than a Great Product

 

For that jaded individual with the (possibly) irrational fear of hipsters, Jetty Extracts may not be the best brand for you. Though the quality of the products is undeniably high in virtually every regard, they’re not the simplest, most straightforward, or cheapest that some traditionalists may prefer.

 

Jetty’s products are sold at a somewhat higher than average price point. Those looking for fresh and innovative methods of medication will likely be happy to pay for the luxury, but anyone looking purely for the most cost effective way to get relief may find another company better suited to their needs.

Customer Testimonials 

 

“Just picked up this indica dablicator from u guys at hempcon got to say its AMAZING !!!!!! Taste is so pure and clean I’m on the hunt for it now. #‎jettyproducts‬ is pure fiiiiiiire”Samuel G.

 

“This was my first oil purchase and I was not disappointed. It’s pretty strong but I found it to be great for being uninhibited in social situations and when you have to still function. I’m kind of a sucker for the little bag it comes in as well. It’s a cute touch…I would buy again for sure.”  —Hannah M.

 

“Very potent and great price for all the CO2 oil e-juice you get. Very tasty and smooth.” —Aidan D.

 

“Not only is [the dablicator] much cooler looking than the less threatening syringes that CO2 wax usually comes in, it’s easier to apply…everything sampled had a clean taste to it…” —Ashleigh C.

 

Jetty Extracts Rating 

 

Effectiveness: 4.5/5

Not only are Jetty’s concentrates effective, but the wide variety of products and strains means that they’re effective down to very specific kinds of uses and kinds of highs. Vaping an indica on the go, or adding a sativa concentrate to the outside of your joint are all possible with one or more of Jetty’s products.

 

Strength: 4.5/5

Their strength is comparable to other premium brands on the market. The gold cartridges are very strong, and only topped by companies with high amounts of THC as their primary selling point.

 

Taste/Aroma: 4.5/5

A clean extraction process that also preserves terpenes means that these concentrates taste great.

 

Cost: 3/5

While some may be happy to pay for a premium quality product, others will find the high price tag unjustified, due to competitors offering equally strong products without a high level of craftsmanship that they may find unnecessary.

 

Overall: 4.25/5 

From this Jetty Extracts review, you can see that the TLC that goes into their products is apparent: the innovative design of their dablicator, the purity of their extraction process, and their dedication to aiding cancer patients embodies everything a premium cannabis brand should be: stylish, philanthropic, and dedicated to creating kick ass products.

 

Even though they may not make the ideal cannabis products for some patients, it’s almost impossible to find fault with the brand as it succeeds in practically every area that matters. The Americana-based image isn’t just a façade. Jetty is truly a company dedicated to craftsmanship as much as curing.

    I’m saddened to report a HUGE slip up on the behalf of Jetty extracts… I never want it to come to this. But push me hard enough, and….. please read on. This gets evil!

    (Look, I get it… I am a bit difficult to deal with. Let’s face it, what is wrong, is wrong… and if something isn’t right, I am going to say something. Many in our industry still act like its black market. You need to stop. This is real world people… Especially when this scenario led to a patient who took such offense, they felt the need to block the Jetty rep from contacting them. “Harassment” is the exact word used by the patient.

    Our patients have encountered one problem after another with Jetty carts, no matter .5g or .7g, Pures and/or Golds, old plastic carts with plastic tips, as well as the new glass carts, w/wooden tips. There have been many carts returned, there have been many dollars lost (on our end) and many complaints about the product sold by Jetty.

    We have brought one issue after another to the rep’s attention, literally many times (too many to count)… and usually, she’s pretty cool about taking care of it, until tonight!
    We’ve made one trip after another to swap out broken Jetty carts for new carts… It’s to the point that our staff is done with it. And now, SO AM I!

    Saturday evening, we were contacted by a patient who ordered from us and she informed us that she had a broken Jetty cart…from a previous order.

    (This came after receiving a poor review on our card services, not for poor services… but for a nonworking Jetty cart. When I saw the review, I emailed Jetty (as the rep informed me to start emailing our inquiries to the company). I was clear in telling the rep, that I don’t email much… there is too much spam sent these days, we cant keep up with it. I was clear in stating, please contact me by phone. Nothing ever came of it). Hopefully this time we (both the patient and I) can receive a phone call with an explanation as to what is happening within the Jetty community.

    I informed the rep of the first broken cart. It took her an hour to reply, but the patient was steadfast in receiving a solution. Now!

    We are happy to fix the problem… In our mission statement/about us page (the very first line… if you’re not completely satisfied, please inform us, we will fix it “immediately”). But to replace the broken cart with another Jetty cart which is very likely to crap out again…. kinda like putting a band-aid on something just for it to break, bleed and gush all over again…(Einstein’s definition of insanity… I was owning it) Thanks, Jetty.

    By the time the rep replied back, we learned that the two newly sold Jetty Gold carts, purchased by the same patient did not work as expected, they simply didn’t meet the patient’s standards. Now we have 3 broken carts (to go along with a container full of more broken Jetty carts to return).
    The rep told me she wanted to handle this situation (as she has done great before in fixing the problem)… but not tonight.

    The rep went on to tell the patient a bunch of lies that were rather disgusting in many ways. First, she went off and told the patient the price point of the carts when sold wholesale to our club. WOAH! YOU GOT BALLS!

    Then she told the patient that the carts are over 1 year old… which is correct, some of them (about 5%).
    BTW, this patient didn’t buy any of the old carts we have in stock… wooden tips/glass carts just released.

    If the medicine is stored PROPERLY at 60°F refer in the dark, stored in a plastic container for additional protection, (even stored standing upside down) why wouldn’t it last for many years to come? If there is an expiration date…. why not add it?

    She even had the nerve to say that we specifically hunt out broken carts to purchase and sell off to our patients. Sorry, wrong club Luna. “put down the cool-aid”

    The rep also went off and said, word for word the discussion we just had on the phone…which was meant to remain between the two of us. Then, all of a sudden she had a moment “diarrhea of the mouth/text syndrome”!

    The Jetty rep even had the nerve to step out of bounds and assume that we are illegally operating… yet as we have been instructed, a club may function under prop 420; medicine from a medicinal club to a medicinal patient is completely legal for 2018 as we’ve been instructed by Attorney Raiche. If we had not received our rec license and chose to work with another club that is for rec use… that would be illegal. If we sold to a rec patient, again… ILLEGAL. But under Prop SB 420, we remain protected, according to our attorney Esq. Raiche. (Perhaps this rep just wants to see our small “family run business” in which she is well aware of…fail due to her Jetty inefficiencies) Why else shake ’em in front of everyone?

    The Jetty rep was a bit psycho with her non-stop texting rampage to this patient, to the point the patient said she had to ignore the rep. The patient said she is scared going forward, due to the rep knowing her home address. She went on and called the situation very unprofessional.

    This all came out when my driver called back and told us word for word, in a twisted sense the version of the reps point of view of the (convo on the phone) that we just had…

    Wow, this was literally like playing the grade school game “operator”… it went from 4 sets of lips to 4 sets of ears nearly word for word, was repeated by the driver, from the patient, from the rep’s mouth, from our original conversation. Not one solution, but pointing the finger as she had none to blame on her own company.

    The driver said the patient was clear about how accommodating I was towards her misfortune, while Jetty rep had better things to be doing than fixing a messed up situation.

    BTW, I get that there is a protocol for the carts to touch nicely on the battery plate from time to time… but this is almost every order. Who’s got the time to address each sale of Jetty carts each time this happens? It only happens with Jetty.
    We have never received one call back from a bad Legion of Bloom, cart nor Eureka Vapor cart, not Sunderstorm carts not even Bloom Farms carts…if protocol needs to happen this frequently… shouldn’t there be something on the packaging to inform the patient of the glitchy plates inside? Perhaps you should think about providing proper instructions on how to perform surgery on the new cart “with style”.

    It is unfortunate that we are trying to help people in their healing needs… yet certain Jetty reps have the audacity to text/harass patients to no end… SNOWBALLING the ISSUE even more! Please BEWARE of the lackluster Jetty extracts team. They don’t care!

    Jetty, perhaps its time to review your hoyty toyty packaging and invest in better quality carts! There should be an investigation on this company… how they treat patients. As well, a complaint to the BBB for faulty carts the keep setting us back. We’ve come close to returning the carts in previous breakages… but we felt like Jetty was doing something really positive, something right with their campaign of “one for you, one for cancer”. Guess we were wrong. You know Mr. Manager… your call can wait til Monday, but my post couldn’t wait til Monday.

    Our club is sitting on a bunch of these defects, in which we hope this will get the refund we’ve been requesting for some long long time. BBB here we come. Shame on you Jetty! I have photos… site wont allow me to post

    Jetty Extracts are really amazing! I will try their CO2 waxes. I love terpenes! Thanks for sharing this informative post!

    Its Always weird reading reviews when you’re using the product at the same time. The Woodtip versions were great I just started using a new one with plastic tip , so far so good. Every other brand of a cartridge has leaked or failed and i have ordered 15-20 of them in 6mos ( I can’t remember how many months I’m stoned ). So far the pure cartridge hybrids haven’t failed .Tonight-is the first time I’ve had the plastic version , it works ,it’s not as good as the wood tip they were better everyvape but this jetty pure hybrid is so much cheaper $23 retail . So far for $23 minus the fantastic would tip it’s the same high( I should know I started this review 2 or 3 cartridges ago). If this fails at all I will write an update,if I remember. However I’ll only “remember “ if this product fails to get me high….
