Hello there folks,
I am a relatively new member, but not new to vaping. I've tried over 200 flavors from countless suppliers, and still have most my bottles.
My favorite was Castle Long. I say ''was'' because the first few bottles were WONDERFUL. Tasted as described.
Lately, the last few bottles I've gotten from them or their distributors have tasted WAY different. One was musty, one was banana-y and one was just foul. I let 5 pawns know, and they kindly arranged for postage for me to ship back two of those bottles and send me another 2. I had all different strengths, 6, 12 and 18. Mind you, I have had all 3 strengths in the past and they all tasted great.
Well, one of the ones they sent as exchange was on par with what it should taste like. The other one was even worse than the ones I sent back. The two even SMELL different.
Has anyone run into this issue before? I tried emailing them again, politely thanking them for exchanging my bottles, but also expressing concern about my new hesitation in ordering any more bottles from them.
Before you ask, yes, I always use a new coil and wick before tasting, and I have used different atomizers for each as well. I have tried all three flavors in a fresh and cleaned authentic Kayfun, a fresh and cleaned iclear 16, a few different fresh and cleaned RDAs, and also a cleaned nautilus mini with BVC coil.
There is a severe inconsistency, and I'd like to know if anyone encountered this and how they solved it. I really can't stand not enjoying my favorite juice, especially when they are close to $30 a bottle. I've let them steep, and I've let them breathe. The point still remains, each tastes different, and not in a good way.
Hoping someone can chime in and help me enjoy this goodness again!
(P.S., the first time I tried CL was in a iclear16, 18mg, and BOY! Was it tasty!)
