Its called UPS surepost. Its what our UPS rep tried to get us on because of cost and was suppose to be "quick" They pick up from us and deliver to nearest post office in your city and then USPS delivers. Weird, I know.

It actually is quite fast, Amazon has been using it for prime for a while. The only downed is that sometimes the tracking is off because it switches carriers. Often times (in my experience) it is delivered by USPS before the tracker has been updated to show that it's been transferred to them.

Okay, so four 120ml bottles came in today, and here are my initial impressions:

First, the packaging was appropriate. Each 120ml was individually wrapped so that if any of them leaked the mess would be contained. There was no leaking, however, but I appreciate the precautionary measure.

Second, each of the 120ml bottles came with a regular cap and an additional cap with a drip spout and cover. The spout needed to be cut with scissors. I've received other similarly sized bottles from other vendors who did not provide such a cap. Nevertheless, this impressed me.

Third, smelling the open bottles, they ALL smelled really, really good. Most of us know that smell does not necessarily indicate that a juice will be good or bad, but I still appreciate it when the liquid smells good.

Okay...the details. I got the following 120ml bottles at 18 mg nic and 50/50:

1) Pomegranate
2) Banana Blast
3) Strawberries and Cream
4) Orange Cream

For testing purposes I used a Trident clone with a 1.3 Ohm micro coil with cotton on a Provari mini at 4.3 volts; I'm doing mouth to lung inhales.

Pomegranate: By far, this juice has the clearest color of the four juices. The taste is neither overpowering nor light. My favorite pomegranate juice is Pom Beach from Niquid, which has a slight strawberry undertone to it; this juice from Lucky 7 tastes like straight pomegranate flavoring. It's not bad, but I wish that it had some complexity to it; it's neither tart nor sweet. Nothing "pops" about it. It might need just a tad bit more flavoring, in my opinion, but it's still a pleasant vape. I'm doing mouth to lung hits on with the Trident clone, and I'm not getting much throat hit; however, I'm not a throat hit kind of guy, so that's perfect for me. The vapor production is not lacking. Bottom Line: Would I buy this again at $8.99/120ml? Yes.

Banana Blast: The color on this is about the same as the Orange Cream - a light orange color. The smell really "pops," though it has that candy type smell, which is fine since I enjoy both more natural banana flavors and more candy banana flavors. The flavor, however, seems to me to be a mix of natural and candy banana flavor. I like it. This has more throat hit than pomegranate, and the vapor production seems a bit better, too. Vaping on it some more, it's almost like it has a more natural taste on the inhale and a more candy taste on the exhale. Again, I'm digging this. By no means is this the best banana juice that I've had, but it's far from being the worst. I've had other banana juices that took a long time to steep before blooming, while this one is "ready to vape" straight from the mailbox. Bottom Line: Would I buy this again at $8.99/120ml? Yes.

Strawberries and Cream: Okay, so the color on this one is more of an amber, and the smell is nice, though there is a hint of that perfumey/alcohol scent that some of us have come to know all too well. This mixes well with the Banana Blast, for starters, since I had to try that. Neither the strawberries nor the cream stand out as being exceptional, but it's okay. So far, this is the one that I think might benefit most from steeping, but we'll see. The throat hit is solid, and the vapor production is adequate. I'd like to taste a bit more fresh strawberry and a richer, yet light, cream. Bottom Line: Would I buy this again at $8.99/120ml? Yes - if only to mix with Banana Blast. EDIT: This one might be a good candidate, for me, for extra flavoring or a so-called "flavor shot." Second Edit: I just tanked this up in a Kayfun 3.1 clone and, while the taste is better than in the Trident clone that I used for my initial review, I still think that the particular bottle that I received could benefit from a tad bit more flavoring - it's not bad whatsoever, just a bit on the subtle side - which someone else might like very much (this reminds me of how I find Alice in Vapeland juices to be on the subtle side, yet many people seem to prefer this).

Orange Cream: This has nearly an identical light orange color to Banana Blast. I've been DIY'ing my own Orange Cream for a while now, and the smell seems very familiar...so does the flavor. However, this is solid. I'd like to taste more citrusy goodness and some vanilla in the cream - more complexity over all, really, but again this is solid. It's a simple Orange Cream with a decent throat hit and very good vapor production. Bottom Line: Would I buy this again at $8.99/120ml? Yes.

Final Thoughts

Pomegranate was the least impressive, but Pom Beach by Nicquid has set a high bar for my standards. Even so, at these prices, the flavor is better than I've been able to DIY for myself, and it's not bad whatsoever. Stawberries and Cream comes in next as being decent, but nothing special - except for the price, which totally justifies getting it. Banana Blast and Orange Cream impressed me the most, but primarily because I didn't expect either to be very good. Banana Blast smells amazing and seems to be a nice balance of fresh, natural, and candy banana flavors, while Orange Cream is really nothing special except a solid orange cream at an incredible price. I can list numerous orange cream juices that are better, but none of them come close to the price that I paid for this offering by Lucky 7. The bottom line here, for me, is that Lukcy 7 has delivered decent juice at a very compelling price. Since I am trying to spend less on juice, but don't want to sacrifice quality, Lucky 7 seems like a good fit for me at this point, the saving that I get from DIY and great deals like this from Lucky 7 will afford me the luxury of buying more premium juices. I have already ordered a number of other flavors at the current $1.99/12ml price for me to try. At these prices do I expect totally amazing complex flavors? No, but Lucky 7 has not marketed itself as such. Did I expect decent flavors? Yes, and - for me - Lucky 7 delivered on that; these four flavors, at least in my opinion, are better tasting that Mt. Baker and are far less expensive.

Well, it has been a week, so I figure that it's time for a followup to my initial impressions.

At this point, I have - by far - vaped Strawberries & Cream the most of the four...more than the other three combined, actually. Banana Blast has lost any hint of natural fruit and has become all candy (I like all sorts of banana flavors, so that's fine with me). Orange Cream hasn't changed much - it's not bad, but this flavor has been one of those that I've had an extremely difficult time finding the absolutely perfect mix for me; I would still probably order this one again for the sake of convenience and price, but I'm also going to continue to try to DIY with the hopes of finding the perfect recipe for me. Pomegranate...okay, so of the four, this is the one that I like the flavor of the least, but interestingly, this is the one among the four that my wife likes the smell of the most; to me, this flavor just isn't quite doing it - it's not bad, but I've had pomegranate juices that are so much better that I would not buy this one again except at a crazy inexpensive price - and even then, it's not a juice that I would vape very often.

A bunch of 12ml bottles of juice from Lucky 7 are supposed to ship out tomorrow, so I'm hoping to be writing initial impressions on those very soon, and when flavor shots and glass bottles become an option on the website, I'll be placing an order for some more 120ml bottles...and I will be reordering Strawberries & Cream, but with a flavor shot.

I might also note that, though I was one of the people who pushed for 120ml glass bottles, the 120ml plastic bottles with spout caps that Lucky 7 sent in the first order are - by far - the best 120ml plastic bottles and caps that I've ever gotten from an e-juice company. I can easily imagine myself wanting flavors that I don't vape as often in the glass bottles (I'll transfer juice into smaller 15ml bottles if I need to), but I think that I'll want at least one of these 120ml plastic bottles and caps for each of the flavors that I vape a lot.

Final Thoughts: I have to admit that, after all the talk about Lucky 7 being better about shipping after last month, I am just a tad bit disappointed that my second order is still awaiting shipping over a week after placing the order; however, it seems that Lucky 7 is continuing to improve in that regard. It's not like I'm going to run out of juice anytime soon or anything, either, so it's really not a big deal. However, I really would prefer for Lucky 7 to take their time and get things right rather than try to rush. It's not the ship times that are prompting me to place these orders with Lucky 7 - it's the prices, and for someone who doesn't mind waiting a bit for a decent product with great prices, it's hard not to recommend Lucky 7 at this point. Further, it is an unreasonable expectation to think that every offering from Lucky 7 is going to be a good fit for my taste buds, but having looked at other reviews, it certainly appears that most people will be able to find a number of juices that they do like, and that is a very good thing at these prices. Lastly, the communication here on ECF has been very good, and I appreciate the ability to pop on here and get updates directly from the man himself, as well as being able to ask questions, make suggestions, and so on. Overall, my experience has been very positive with Lucky 7, and my confidence has not been shaken at all - it has been strengthened.

Suggestions: Two things...

1) Based on the name of the company, I'd like to see some sort of "Lucky 7" sample pack and/or "Lucky 7" 120ml combo pack special deal. 7 12ml bottles for the sample pack and 7 120ml bottles at a special price.

2) With the "gambling" motif, I'd like to see a monthly winner - every order that month being a ticket (so that someone who orders more gets a better chance to win). The prize could be anything, but I'd suggest either a "Lucky 7" sample pack or a single 120ml bottle.

The idea with both of these is to play on the name and create more of an identity for the brand beyond crazy inexpensive juice...

very true...we all know that not all juice is going to be good to all ppl.....good example....I got Fuzzy Navel juice.....the juice is good and I am sure there are lots of ppl that would love it....however I have never been a fan of the orange creamcicle type flavor and I can taste it in there.....so its not for me but probably 90% of other vapors would love it


ROFL and I just realized I got 8 flavors in that first order and loved 7 of them....Lucky7's

Good ideas, will take those into consideration for sure! I'm sorry your one of the ones that had to wait, we stocked up and just didnt really know which flavors we would blow out of because the last sale people were all "testing" and until now havent had many repeat customers since a ton of you got to actually try our juice. A few flavors blew out in no time while others are still full. We got the shipment arriving anytime this afternoon though, and all the orders from the 10th back will be shipped. This is NOT going to be like the last sale and get out of hand, so no reason to be alarmed. We are working on getting double our normal inventory just so we at all times have product in stock. It was just hard to judge which flavors we would blow through first.. We are taking care of it all though and everything will stay on track for the most part. Sticking with our goal of the 1-3 business days.

I have to say, Sooner, your attitude towards delays has vastly improved. I see you taking full responsibility this time around. For the love of honesty, keep that up.
Customers tend to like accountability. At least I do.

P.S. I'm curious about your thoughts on my experience with banana nut bread. Are your liquids mainly taste tested @ high wattages?

Just curious, what wattage and what mod were you using? I'm expecting to use some at higher wattages and would like some insight before I get my juice.

We test them on many different wattages as not everyone uses the same. Some will benefit and others wont from different wattages.

Just received my order of eight 120ml bottles of juice from Lucky 7. All bottles were sealed in plastic bags and no leaks at all. All the bottles were completely filled and the packaging was well done. I got Banana Cream, Bavarian Cream, Butterscotch, Cappuccino, Coffee, Jamaican Rum, Peach and Strawberries & Cream.
I know most juices need a little time for the flavors to blend together, but I had to try one of them as soon as I removed them from the box.
I picked the Strawberries & Cream to try first.
I cleaned and rewicked with cotton one of my Kayfun Lites that had a 1.3 ohm coil in. I filled it up with the Strawberries & Cream and placed it on a Poldiac with a fresh battery which was providing 12 watts plus.
First, let me say that most juices do not have a lot of flavor to me, but the Lucky 7 Strawberries & Cream is loaded with flavor. It honestly tastes like a bowl of fresh strawberries in cream to me. I have NEVER had a juice taste so close to the real item for which it is named for.
SoonerFan01, if your other products are anywhere close to being this good you have a customer and fan forever.
Good juice, good price, good service. What more could we ask for?
I may have to change my ECF user name to "Lucky7Fan01".
