3 yo juice?

[thatguyjeff]

Got me a bottle (glass) of some 3 year old juice - only about 15 ml or so. PG based presumably, not sure of ratios. 24mg nic. Stored in my basement the entire time, zero natural light, low humidity, 60 F temps.

Does juice age like wine or beer?

Spearmint, if that matters... heh.

Doesn't smell rancid or anything. Suppose I'll give it a go here one day soon. Worst that can happen is it tastes bad, right? It's not going to kill me or anything...

I'm not a doctor (nor do I play one on TV), but my opinion is that the only risk with three year-old juice is that it might not taste great. Other than that---and it's not certain by any means that "aged" juice will taste any worse than when it was new---I can't imagine that vaping it would endanger your health in any way.

I've got about a liter and a half of juices that have passed their second birthday (meaning that they're now more than a year old), and I don't notice anything funny about them at all, except that some that were lousy when fresh are still lousy now. Many have improved, and the ones I liked when "young" still taste good in their dotage.

I would be thinking about what it was stored in, plastic or glass. Also what kind of juice, is it water based, etc. Does it looks cloudy.... just think a little bit and don't vape the whole bottle in one sitting. Take a few puffs, if it's good, it might be good. Dang there is a few juices I like that would probably like to try after 3yrs. Let us know how it went.

Well I gave it a whirl. Vapor production was really poor, almost non-existant. And it had a bit of an odd aftertaste. Not bad necessarily, just different. It almost tastes a little like beer. Could be too that I'm not remembering what the juice was supposed to taste like in the first place. BTW - it's a spearmint tobacco type, not just spearmint.

Color/clarity looked good though. And it flows like juice is supposed to.

I'm going to let it stew in the carto longer and try again later.

Beer. Friggin light beer.

Vapor production improved some, still on the low end. And I didn't grow an arm out of my neck or anything, so there's that.

The flavoring & additives are what breaks down and goes bad, more so then the Nic,,,,, been there done that,,, vaping 3yr old juice is almost as bad as using ketchup thats 2 yrs old, just dont do it
