I also ordered Cafe au Lait and Caramel Coffee sweetened. I don't care for the sweetner. I have since reordered without sweetner and look forward to seeing the difference. Both sweetened flavors have gotten better with steeping and Wlad also suggested I try it at a lower voltage which helps too. But I will not order sweetened again unless I have tried it first without

pardon the typos, on my phone :)

So, Pina Colada. I've had it for about 3 weeks, and it's kind of terrible. The pineapple and coconut are starting to come together nicely, but I ordered it sweetened (first time ordering any A+ juice sweetened) and it's absolutely the LEAST sweet juice I've ever had. I have both the Pineapple Cream and the Coconut Dream (both ordered unsweetened), and they are both good. They are especially good together. I had sort-of figured the Pina Colada would be a lot like the mix of the two, only with a little extra sweet, because I asked for that.

Can anyone with experience with the Pina Colada, either sweetened or unsweetened, chime in here? Is that just how it is, or is there a problem with my bottle?

(For the record, I have dozens upon dozens of A+ liquids and none of them have ever had a problem. I've ordered a few I don't particularly care for, but almost all I like or even love.)

Ok, I tried Piña Colada again. To me it's like raw natural coconut (which isn't very sweet as a food, actually), and subtle pineapple (which is quite sweet, when ripe, as a food). The vape, however, is only slightly sweet. I ordered mine unsweetened. I don't get a lot of rum, maybe a hint, which is normally in the drink but not mentioned in the A+ description. All in all, I like it a lot. I can't say I'm getting anything "chemically" but maybe the little bit of rum could be interpreted as such.

Maybe it would benefit from a tiny bit of mint to make it more refreshing, like the drink. Maybe that's what it's lacking. I have some Halo Malibu that's a Piña Colada with a bit of menthol. I remember it being very strong with a frosty finish, but it's nearly a year old now, and it's weakened considerably, at least in the aroma. I'm not brave enough to actually vape it.

"Sweet" is a very subjective thing. A lot of people say Smooth Criminal is sweet, but it only is for me occasionally, depending on my palate of the day. The same goes for Just Criminal. I'd say Piña Colada is sweeter than both of those, but not as sweet as Bananas Foster. BF is certainly not as sweet as the actual dessert.

Yeah, I don't necessarily get a "chemically" taste from my Pina Colada. It's just absolutely the LEAST sweet A+ (or any) e-liquid I've ever had. And I mean absolutely lacking in any sweetness whatsoever. As I said in my feed back email to them last night (and I feel bad about this, but it was totally true!), it's like I accidently selected "remove any trace of sweetness whatsoever" instead of "sweetened". And it's the first one I've ever asked for sweetened.

Most of their other juices I've had are actually pretty sweet as-is. I vape a lot (and I mean A LOT!) of Boba Tea, and it's quite sweet. I was actually worried that if I got the Pina Colada sweetened, it would be too much. NOPE.

I'll wait 'till I hear back from my feedback email, if I hear back, I mean. I don't always. But I think I'll probably just get more of the Pineapple Cream and Coconut Dream and mix them. I wanted to try both of them sweetened, but now I'm a little afraid to! :unsure:

Hey my order from FRIDAY is going to be delivered TODAY!

Woot woot for fast shipping and new juices!

My order from Friday hasn't even been mixed. :(

Perhaps Wlad gives preferential treatment to hot chicks. :D

BTW, have you tried Ahlusion's Mocha? I've had a new bottle steeping for a few weeks and when I cracked it open today I was surprised by its really nice aroma. I will be sampling it soon.

I just got my second A+ order and really like the Boba Tea. I didn't think I would, but it will be a reorder.

Trying PUDC now, jury is still out on this one. Can't wait to try the Lemon Cream.

My reorder of BC smells wonderful! I am finding more likes than dislikes for sure. Glad I found them.

All over the place
like the bananas foster, and banana cream pie, but the banana flavor seems not ripe enough or something. steeped 1 an three weeks respectively. I still like the bf a lot, the other elements are spot on, just hoping that banana mellows.

As Eleanor once said about Jungle Juice, the banana has a touch of green. I actually really like that as it makes it not so sweet. It's *almost* banana essence as opposed to banana flavoring.

Don't feel singled out Voltron. I am a woman (ok, maybe a female dog not a hot chick), but my order from Friday has not beem mixed yet either :).

I have Mocha. I am not fond of chocolate vapes, but this one is certainly vapable when in the mood for chocolate without the calories ;).

Tried my Pina Colada and I agree it is not sweet or really creamy. Need to spend more time with it, however, before I pass judgement. Pineapple Cream and Coconut Dream? Things that make you go hummmmm.

PS Citrus Bliss with a breeze delivered as a sample today!

pardon the typos, on my phone :)

I wasn't fond of chocolate vapes until I tried Just Criminal. Now I'm much more open to them. Have you had it yet?

Just Criminal was in the order I received today. Cafe au Lait and Caramel Coffee without sweetner, Just Criminal and the sample of Citrus Bliss with a breeze. I know the coffees and Just Criminal need a nice steep time, but I will be drip testing all tomorrow when my taste buds are fresh.

Currently vaping away some Smooth Criminal. Getting in the mood. Love this stuff!

File this under "the snozzberries taste like snozzberries":

So the Tiramisu subject pops up from time to time, and it seems the consensus is that some like it, some don't, but most agree it doesn't taste like the dessert. Some say it's not even sweet.
I'm in the latter category. It tastes mostly like a coffee. I've heard others say similar.

But that was before the hh.357....

Holy hand grenades! OK, it still doesn't exactly taste like the dessert, but after mostly ignoring my 10ml for several months (it came in my very first Ahlusion order, way back in Sept or Oct), I've rediscovered this liquid, and it has been reborn in the HH! The sweetness is all there, and the ladyfinger/cake taste that I never really got, that's in there too. My only complaint about this device is that I took so long to try it, and that I now have to force myself to lay off at night if I want to ever sleep again....


PS: Voltron, your signature/quote is the best!
