lemon(<1%),
Vinegar (<1%),

Taz--that is the ingrediants for all of Johnson Creeks Juice--very few compared to what Clam posted below for Totally Wicked--Not sure what to make out of Totally Wicked's list --I am still looking up some of those ingredients because I am not familar with most of them save for the PG and Nic--Sun

I'm pretty sure you'll find the TW chemical sounding names are what JC just calls natural and artificial flavors.

Jamie--so far I have found that some of them have to do with alcohol bases which JC does not use--but you could be right on a few--I do not have a clue till I research it. If you look at the ingredient list on many flavorings they do not have a lot of what is listed here, so I what to check it out.--Sun

Maybe this will help you from their website:

At Johnson Creek, we make three very important promises to you:

First, we make our Johnson Creek Original Smoke Juice by hand one master batch at a time (60-64 FL OZ) and no batch, regardless of flavor, is kept for more than 48 hours. Ever. Further, we don't use chemicals you can’t pronounce just to artificially bolster our recipes that we should otherwise be able to make with completely safe ingredients. Whena you receive your delivery, you can be assured that the product is extremely fresh and of the highest quality. We’re kind of fanatical about that and after all, we’re making it for ourselves too!

That is good enough for me--Hope that helps--Sun

I read that as well, which made me look up their address in google maps, and street view. The house is a residence, not a place that looks like its setup with a lab. If he is making each batch by hand, is he dealing with liquid nicotene in a residence? Or if they are making their flavors based on an already manufactured nicotene (no flavor) juice, then we can't be sure the ingredients listed are accurate because we can't verify whats in the premade liquid. See what I am saying?

And look, I am probably nitpicking. I am not looking to rain on the parade in anyway. I think its a great step for the industry as well. But I do see a lot of question and a lot of caution around here, and its always good to ask the questions right? Well, thats all I am doing. I know nothing about liquid nicotene, but people here say a drop can kill you. If thats true, no way anyone should be handling that in a residence. So thats what raised my curiosity.

Very good point Bad Axe--I sure do not want to mess with Nicotine. I think after reading the posts it really does go to the concentration of Nicotine and only the manufactures know what they are doing (I hope!!!)--Sun

hmm, this as interesting thread!

i'm a newbie, but just from a business standpoint their physical address where they process orders from and such is not necessarily where they manufacture. they may have another residence, a warehouse, etc.

all very good points have been made though, and i'm happy that ingredients are being disclosed.

There's a thread here about the ingredients in some eliquids - Ingredients in cartridges or E-liquid

It would be interesting to see what is actually in Johnson Creek and the chemical names in the way Chinese manufacturers list them.

Ah, just read Sun's post at the top of the page.

I do think they should list their ingredients on the site, though, as well as the bottles.
