I was a regular user of another 555 juice from another vendor and I wanted to try this one out (555e) since I thought I loved 555. At first I thought the inhale was great. Nice taste and good throat hit. Then the exhale came along with an overpowering nutty aftertaste which...just did not agree with me at all. I tried vaping it more to see if I would get used to it, but the overpowering nut taste was too much for me.

This isn't the first time I've failed miserably with a nut based flavor, so I think I will avoid those from now on. I might still try the normal 555 in hopes it's less nutty and more sweet like my previous 555. The honey flue on the other hand, is amazing. I ain't touching the Honey Flue Nut though! :)

Yo Kemo, I saw this at the top of your latest started thread and thought hmmm... I don't know if this flavor still does it for you (we all know sometimes enthusiasm drops off) but, guess what? I clicked on it for two reasons: 1) It was the first one I saw. 2) Because that is what I am vaping at this exact moment. This bottle has dwindled quite rapidly. It has (to me) such a bright essence to it that it goes well with the morning sun!

Hey kemosabe..what voltage do u vape it at...at 3.4-3.7 its soo good...my buddy came up with his ipro and was complaining that his 555e wasnt tasting the same anymore..the flavor was muted...i looked at his device and he was vaping at around 4.5 -5v...i turned it down to 3.7 and gave it back and he was like dammn man there it is.

Im shopping around for a VV right now..gonna try the 555e on every increment lol but im guessing over 4.5 or so is a bit high for this flavor..ill soon find out

I got a Buzz pro and im vaping right now the regular 555 not the exotic , taste a little bit strong at 5volts but more will just mute the favlor ; i stick to 4.2 volts.

yeah..different brews for different folks..i personally didnt enjoy ejoker but then again i was a full flavor smoker..not a fan of the cool menthol taste.

some people have reviewed/posted that there isnt enough TH with the 555e but for me its stronger than most others ive tried.

anyone else taste a bit of pineapple in the flavor..maybe its just me

i vape my 555e at ~3.8 on a 1.7ohm carto. some times i'll play around with higher temps for a bigger TH, but just as your buddy experienced, the flavor gets mangled. you really gotta keep it lower to get the true flavor.

mostly i get the warm sweet peanut..but a few weeks ago idk if it was the ohm of the atty/clearo or whatever i was using at the time or the steep time of that particular bottle but every hit i was picking up on a subtle sweetness underneath the peanut and tasted like pineapple..thought to myself..well thats exotic so maybe thats one of the flavors.

Yeah, I definitely am getting a citrus-y note. I am not getting "peanut" per se, but a nuttiness much in the way that green tea has a nuttiness. As a matter of fact, the 555e is starting to taste just like a perfectly and gently steeped green tea with a touch of honey anchored by a subtle tobacco. I hope this makes sense, but even if no one agrees, the point is: this is some delicately flavored, subtly charged, perfect for the spring, juice!

Not that this is a replacement for the more rare BIG 2 (RY4 & E-JOKER) from BWB, but Don has plenty on the menu that are not extinct that are gems themselves. Come to think of it, if 555e were discontinued or in limited stock, I would be just as saddened if not more!

I just ordered 120ml of 555e it is my favorite. I keep my tank full at all times. I had just received my order when the BIG 2 came back in stock so I added some coconut with that order. I had been thinking of mixing in a little coconut with my 555e when I read a post by Whiskey talking about adding it to 555. I will pickup my most recent order this weekend and let you know how the experiment goes.

First tried it a few months ago. Got a 15ml bottle to try. Well I consumed it. My neice, who was trying my ejuices, said she liked the pineapple one. I didn't get pineapple, but knew she meant the 555 exotic. Now I see others did taste pineapple. Will have to tell her. I don't know exactly all the flavoring, but I definately get the nutty exhale. I like this one a lot and have ordered another 15ml which I also finished and now have a 30ml bottle that I just cracked. I like the flavoring along with the nutty exhale. Will concentrate and see if I can experience the pineapple also. It was interesting to see that someone posted they enjoyed it more than RY4...because many times when I have been vaping it... I am thinking the same thing. This one is worth a try. :thumbs:
