Nearly two years ago, we reviewed Revolution Cannabis’ line of single-strain Live Rosin Gummies, which made our “Favorite Finds” of 2023 list. Revolution now offers Nano-Live Resin Gummies, so I picked up from Revolution Normal the Mango Pineapple and Kiwi Melon flavors to review.

The Mango Pineapple and Kiwi Melon, labeled as indica, came as packs of ten gummies that contained 10mg of THC each. Each gummy was about a third-of-an-inch across and quarter-inch wide, the Mango Pineapple a light orange color and the Kiwi Melon a pale yellow. The consistency of both sets of nano-live resin gummies had a little resistance and bounce back until after a few chews that dissolved them into a softer chew and the respective flavors.

The Mango Pineapple delivered a sweet tropical aroma that leaned more candied mango and citrus than pineapple. The flavor hit with a sweet-mango front end and a pineapple citrus and sour back end that masked the cannabis flavor. The Kiwi Melon aroma hit with a sweet artificial berry and candied melon, a smell that reminded me of mixing three different flavors of Kool-Aid when I was nine. The flavor hit with a candied kiwi with artificial honey dew, muskmelon, and Ambrosia flavor that coated the palate and covered the tinge of cannabis that leaked through.

The effects for both flavors were the same. The onset, as advertised, was fast acting, probably twice as quick as a norma gummy. The head high hit first but the body buzz quickly followed. Not until the end of the buzz did I feel an “indica-style” tiredness from the gummies. The rest of the buzz was relatively clearheaded but with a heavy body buzz. The head high was functional and led the buzz for the first hour, but the body buzz eventually took over with a sinking and floating feeling in my extremities that worked its way toward my core, relieving muscle pain and cramps with an overall relaxation. The tail end of the buzz tired and slowed my thoughts, leading a solid night of sleep.

The ingredients for both flavors were sugar, tapioca syrup, water, gelatin, palm kernel oil, natural flavors, citric acid, malic acid, cannabis extract, sunflower lecithin, corn oil, and beta-carotene (color).
