Degelis Pilla and Kymberly Byrnes launched their decidedly female-owned and operated company, TribeTokes after personally struggling to find high-quality, pure products on the market that met their clean criteria. Pilla and Byrnes were determined to offer other cannabis users what they wanted and couldn’t find for themselves. Years later, their motto to “never sell a product you wouldn’t give to your own mother or sister” remains the driving ethos behind all their hard work.
“We are an entirely women-owned, operated and funded team, including our manufacturing department,” Pilla shares. TribeTokes products are designed for women, by women. Cannabis hardware and accessories feature small aesthetic details that speak to the feminine sensibility while the products’ effects are tailored for experiences many women are seeking from cannabis.
Pilla and Byrnes never chase the latest trend or flashy products. Rather, TribeTokes caters to a specific clientele—the mature cannabis user who leans more towards the medicinal properties of consumption. This is reflected across their products, from gummies and vapes to pre-rolls. Today, we’re taking a closer look at TribeTokes pre-rolls—what’s in them, how they’re made and of course how they make you feel.
Each TribeTokes pre-roll is designed to deliver a specific effect, ranging from relaxation to euphoria. They currently have three offerings: Blue Dream, Tropicana Cherry and Jealousy.
A Clean Pre-Roll Experience
TribeTokes offers a premium selection of THCA-rich flower cultivated under stringent growing standards and quality compliant with the 2018 Farm Bill. Each product is derived from hemp and tested by third-party laboratories to ensure its compliance to federally mandated requirements. This is what makes it easily available online for purchase.
All plants are grown indoors using controlled environmental practices, with careful attention to the curing process and preservation of trichomes. Independent lab results are available for every batch, verifying cannabinoid content and confirming the absence of contaminants, including pesticides, mold and heavy metals. The founders, as they put it, are “extremely picky” with the farm they purchase the flowers from. Pilla and Byrnes sampled 15 different grow operations before settling on one in California. “We just try all of the strain options ourselves and launch our favorites,” Pilla says.
Ensuring the quality of the process is at the forefront of Pilla and Byrnes’ ethos. Through TrikeTokes, they deliver a completely clean and safe product that consumers know they can trust.
As more cannabis companies enter the market with a focus on clean products, Pilla and Byrnes are differentiating themselves with their consistent dedication to their cause. As early adopters of the clean cannabis movement, TribeTokes holds itself to a high standard and has built a strong reputation for being leaders in the space.
This purity is the most important aspect of the product for the founders. They track every stage of the supply chain, ensuring it meets their exceptionally high standards. This attention to detail is what allows them to ensure that the pre-rolls deliver on the promised effects.
Now that you know these products are made with the utmost care and cleanliness, let’s take a closer look at their pre-rolls, diving into our own personal experience testing them, as well as details on how each of the three flavors is expected to make the average consumer feel.
From the moment the product touches your hands is the beginning of the TribeTokes experience. Each crisp white flower container features golden lettering, signaling you’re about to tap into something that’s sleekly minimal while also luxurious and feminine. And there’s no tricks around here—TribeTokes’ transparency begins with the QR code on the back of the container that takes you to the lab results. The tamper-proof containers are perfectly sized for pre-rolls, too. They can easily fits into the palm of your hand, unlike shorter and bulkier styles.
You can purchase in quantities of .05g and 1g, with five pre-rolls each. Each pre-roll is expertly and tightly packaged, creating a smooth and slow burn for a session. The .05g shorty experience is portable and a quicker smoke, tasting fine on the relight, smoking as needed. The 1g pre-roll is a commitment as it smokes at a slow and steady rate for longer sessions.
We personally sampled three of their products, and all exceeded expectations. And most importantly, they all delivered on the experience being advertised.
Blue Dream THCA Flower
Blue Dream is a sativa-leaning hybrid known for its balanced expression and aromatic complexity. The buds tend to be dense and generously coated in trichomes, exhibiting a frosty appearance indicative of high cannabinoid production. At the end of the curing process, it is sticky and moist, leading to a flavorful smoking.
The terpene profile includes notes of sweetness, earth and herbal undertones, consistent with its lineage. With THCA levels reaching up to 26%, this product is intended for consumers seeking a clear-headed and uplifting experience. Lab data confirms purity and potency, supporting its consistency across batches. Most notable is its high beta myrcene content, one of our favorite qualities of the strain. It gave us that feeling of being able to “let go.”
We found that Blue Dream is a versatile strain, fantastic for daytime and nighttime use. It’s a smooth smoke that holds its flavor. Blue Dream is reported to improve creativity and lowers stress. The consistency of flavor showcases the clean product that TribeTokes prides itself on. We loved the fruity blueberry notes mixed with both earthy hay and pine. Its name is its virtue, as it inspires a dreamy and euphoric experience.
This strain gives you both the body effects of an indica, which slow down sensation, while also the mental alertness of sativa to get work done. Effects come on quickly, with a mindful inhale, holding of the breath, and exhale as the journey washes over you.
Tropicana Cherry THCA Flower
Tropicana Cherry is a hybrid product that presents with tight formation and a high trichome density, reflecting strong resin development during flowering. It contains fruity notes with what feels like a diesel back in a smooth smoking experience.
Tropicana Cherry is subtly flavored with hints of dark fruit on the palate. The aroma is characterized by a prominent citrus note with underlying sweetness and subtle cherry nuances. Third-party testing shows THCA concentrations reaching up to 28%, positioning it as a potent option within the TribeTokes catalog.
We found the effects to be generally mood-enhancing with a gradual onset of relaxation. This strain is fantastic for its sensory appeal and balanced performance. It left us with a sense of focus and improved energy, giving a fun pick-me-up that didn’t lead to a crash, showing the purity of the product. TribeTokes Tropicana Cherry helped alleviate physical discomforts as awareness of pain symptoms like back and neck strain faded into the background. It straddles the fine edge of dreamy with reality’s edge of clarity for getting work done, whether it’s around the house or creative expression.
Jealousy THCA Flower
Jealousy is an indica-leaning hybrid cross. The buds tend to be large, dense and heavily trichome-covered, suggesting high cannabinoid concentration. THCA levels reach up to 30%, making it one of the most potent strains offered by the TribeTokes.
The aromatic profile combines sweet, gassy and earthy notes, with terpene expression consistent with its dessert-type lineage. Independent lab reports confirm compliance with federal hemp requirements and validate product safety.
Due to its potency and physical effects, we recommend trying Jealousy during evening hours when looking for deep relaxation. It’s a very smokable strain, light in flavor, with an experience that slowly creeps up. Despite being THCA flower, the terpene-forward nature of the plant inspires an experience and effect just like THC flower.
A Plethora of Pre-Rolls
There are many other pre-roll strains offered by TribeTokes, delivering everything from vibes to giggles. We suggest perusing their website to see everything they offer and finding the exact product that caters to your needs. Pilla and Byrnes value the creation of a bespoke cannabis experience for all their customers. Consumers “are reading ingredient labels, asking about methods and demanding transparency,” Pilla explains. “We realized our real edge is how we show up for our customers.”
