We ditched our old peach and switched to this formula. We felt it was much better tasting. Glad your enjoying it.
Peach Ring gets a HUGE 5 starawesome flavor
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.
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.
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...
actually I think those are 2 pretty good ideas
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.
And that is understandable, least from my view it is. I should have my second order from you in today. Going to try some since my first order was pretty good on arrival. All goes well i will be a for sure repeat customer. (keep the strawberry cream in stock lol)

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?
