Generally, I taste new juices on a drip atty. Most of the time, its 3 - 5 drops but, depending on the juice, it can be more.
If I am tasting more than one flavor, I vape either green tea, ecto or both between flavors.
Green tea is relatively plain and does a good job of cleansing the pallet. The one I use is not sweet, has no fruit, and is very mellow.
If I am tasting juices that have a lot going on or have strong flavors I will vape Ecto as well. To me, ecto tastes like 7up and that does a great job of neutralizing strong flavors...
I always wait at least 10 minutes between flavors and drink a lot of water.
From a review perspective, I look for the normal sorts of thing - throat hit, vapor, and flavor. Flavor being the most important to me so, that is what I focus more on. Occasionally, I will mention packaging if it is something special or especially horrible but, again, that is secondary.
For flavor, I like to do an initial I-just-opened-it impressions check then come back to it in a week or more. I look for the composition of the juice as well as whether I like the flavors. Sometimes, I will very much like the composition of the flavors chosen and not like the juice at all.
I am going to try to use a rating scale on full reviews only (I will not rate initial impressions when the bottle is just opened) but, that will be subjective as well. To keep things simple, I am going to use 3 stars. I will expand this if I need to (and I very well might). Here is what I am looking at:
1 star - No thanks
2 stars - Meh... I'll hold onto the bottle and maybe I'll buy some more but, i wont rush out to get any right now.
3 stars - That's great. Here - take my money!
I am open to feedback if anyone has any. if you have any comments, feel free to share them.
Thanks for stopping by
