Just wanted to address some speculation about topVapor e-lquids that we've seen in other threads and explain a little bit of the history about TopVapor e-liquid since it's never really been mentioned before.. :sleep:

When I first started vaping I couldn't taste crap.. I needed and wanted strong flavors, stuff that I could taste but after vaping for a while, my taste and smell returned and I found most of the e-liquid flavors were too strong and some had an aftertaste that would stick around for a while.

Chef Scott and I were determined to try and find flavors that were smooth, flavorful and not overpowering on the taste buds. We started experimenting with flavors and came across an alcohol based flavor company that provided a nice variety of flavors that were smooth, flavorful and not too strong.. We started buying more of these flavors, mostly for our personal use, but started to give out samples with some of our kits and people really enjoyed them and wanted to order them and TopVapor was born :)

When we first started making e-liquid, we used to bottle in advance, making maybe 300 or 400 bottles of 2 or 3 flavors per batch, but only in 2 nic levels, 0 and 24.. We always struggled to have what people wanted and some of our pre-bottled e-liquid would have a bit of time to age before it was sold.. Aging definitely does change the flavor.

The leap forward:
In July of 2010 we decided to bottle on demand by making bulk batches of 0 nic liquid and bottling, adding nic and labeling on the fly. This worked out great and allowed us to fill a lot of gaps with people's nic preferences. A side effect of the new process was that the aging process that used to occur was cut down from maybe a week or more to just a few minutes :(

Our ingredients have never changed as we've always purchased the same organic natural flavors, the same USP grade VG and the same USP grade PG from the same manufacturers. Our recipes always stay the same and we never skimp on flavors or quality of ingredients as we're just not that kind of company.

We've recently invested over $20k to update our e-liquid facility with all stainless steel surfaces and new sanitation equipment to ensure that the product is well made and sanitary.

With all that said, the perception of some is that since our e-liquid is reasonably priced that it must be an inferior product compared to the more expensive alternatives. The truth: we buy everything in bulk and we pass the savings along :)

99% of our reviews are positive but we do understand that personal tastes vary and not everyone will like all or any of our flavors and that's okay. Our return policy is industry standard and clearly stated on our website, e-liquid returns/refunds are not accepted.

thanks, hoog

Hoog - Funny you should say that you couldn't taste anything, ultimately creating Mad Vapes and Top Vapor. I have issues tasting many of the liquids I've tried, and both you and Chef Scott go above and beyond to actually make a great tasting experience!

I really appreciate both the Customer experience, but more importantly I appreciate the my mouth experience. I and many have learned the benefits of steeping, and while many of your juices at the time of purchase, they are simply delectable after a small amount of steeping - thanks!!

Thanks very much for what you and the team does (still expecting to see little elves to be onsite)!

One happy and loyal Customer!

THANK YOU HOOG!

I'm new to vape'n and only approx 30 days completely analog free. After trying a few other juices and then moving to TopVapor, I noticed the taste was significantly milder and was concerned. So darn glad ya posted this!

Also as a side note - the TopVapor juice is absolutely FANTASTIC with LR attys. The LR really brings out the flavor in these, where I have noticed other juices are far too strong to use in the LR.

Thanks again for rock'n service, quick order turn-arounds and the best prices on the web I have seen yet! You've got a customer for life sittin' here... ;)

I just wanted to say I think the Topvapor juices I have tried are great and what I like about most of them is the massive amount's of vapor they put out.Don't get me wrong like the flavor too which TV has but without alot of vapor I don't get the same satisfaction from my vaping experience.Oh yeah can't beat the price or customer service either.Thanks Madvape's for all you do and for saving me $$$$ during these tough economic times.....Loyal customer for life here too!

Do you test all the batches of juice when you've made them ? the last order of banana and nutty caramel i got tasted really weak compared the ones i ordered a few weeks before that, was quite gutted really as they're my 2 favorites and tasted a million times better before.

Yes, each and every batch is tasted and vaped.. Some flavors do take a little time to steep. When I want to fast track something, I'll throw a 10 ml bottle in my pocket for a day or two. It really seems to speed up the process. Both Banana an Nutty caramel improve with steeping and we make 2 to 3 liters of each a day so it's as fresh and un-steeped as it gets :(

I was going to order some TV liquid but was concerned by the "alcohol based" reference. I'm doing some research on it but don't quite understand.

For example: A recovered alcoholic who ingests zero alcohol due to an intolerance for alcohol. Many people refuse to ingest any through mouthwash, foods, drinks. etc and are careful about it. How much alcohol would one be ingesting if any with TV liquids?

Long time Madvapes customer here.

I really would like to contact TopVapor or anyone who knows the alcohol content of this liquid. Getting frustrated I cannot find a website in Google for TV for contact info.

Anyone?

Just ask hoog or open a ticket. TV is the madvapes brand. They make it themselves.
