Is ok. I stumbled upon this thread, trying to get info on why Ahlusions discontinued their aromatic blends online. I hope it was not a bad ingredient or something like that.
Hopefully it's just a sales issue

No one really knows, but most likely just number of sales versus the labor intensive requirements of the liquids.

I do not vape them. Seem like they would be too strong for me. Hopefully someone here that goes to the shop will know what is up with that message on the website about not carrying them online anymore. Will they be available at the stores?

Well, sometime last week, I sent a few question to Ahlusios via the contact form asking - "why the removal of the line". I received an email reply from Wlad
I literally just checked my emails just now....lol anywhoooo got these replies

H2o,

A customer support staff member has replied to your support request, #511925 with the following response:

Flavors are routinely removed from our menu due to various reasons. The main reasons are amount (or lack) of feedback, the type of feedback, the volume of sales, and overall cost. It costs quite a lot (record keeping, preservation, storage etc) to have non-performing flavors on hand, hence the decision to remove flavors/offerings.

With our aromatics being directly tobacco derivatives, they will be removed as well only to be available at select locations.

Regards,

Wlad

H2o,

A customer support staff member has replied to your support request, #383626 with the following response:

Not yet - but I'm bringing Devil Dog! and Blue Grass Burley back online by the end of next week. We're only going to do a short run (+/- 4 months - until Dec the latest) before permanently pulling them off line.

Regards,

Wlad

H2o,

A customer support staff member has replied to your support request, #383626 with the following response:

Those 2 (Devil Dog and Blue Grass Burley) are our main flavors - Vurley, Maple, Cherry and Peach blends will follow too, so not to worry.

We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions. If not, please do not send another email. Instead, reply to this email.

I DIY these days but reserve some loot to order from various places "just to check stuff out".

Got some 6 mg 50/50 Tiramisu Ahlusion last week... Good stuff. Really good. I will be ordering more stuff from you folks. Great packaging, even came with a 'child' proof dropper, it was labeled properly, just GREAT JOB...

I imagine they will only be keeping what they can produce in house, thus being sold only in house. Whatever the case, I know Apple Tarte Tatin ain't goin' anywhere! Dadgum this is shaping up nicely.

Just tried my first bottles of Ahlusion...I finally cracked my Smooth criminal and Mango Lassi open...still got some cha yen cardamom steeping.... anyway

I really wasnt impressed with either. The Mango lassi may not be fully steeped yet but it tastes nothing like mango OR lassi. Its not unpleasant but its tastes really artificial like MBV or something, which at almost a dollar a ml, is a big turn off.

Smooth criminal was kind of drab, didnt really strike me either way, definitely wouldnt order it again. I expected tobacco I got like an faintly flavored tea taste almost, no tobacco taste at all. I dont know if I'd order anything from them again. Maybe Im spoiled because all I buy is AiV and five pawns but thier packaging is really boring and theres no real angle or motif to thier stuff, its kind of like every other juice shops' flavors for the most part, nothing unique. And it was way too hard to get the plastic wrap off and get the tips off to steep. Not impressed at all, maybe I just got an off batch or something but I dont see what the hype is about honestly. They did deliver really fast though which is a plus.

I'm curious what is the VG/PG ration what you have? Did you leave it at the default when you ordered?

And Wlad recommends no more than 5 minutes cap off to air out the juices.

Yup, I'd just move on to something else. Spoiled by AIV, huh?

Yes it's all about the packaging. Best you just stick with 5Pawns. :p
We may be able to help you find the problem but first some questions.
Q: What type of device are you using?
What ratio did you order in?
What's your steeping method?
Would be glad to help yas out.

What's the steep time on Chocolate Cream? It's pretty clear still and no high chocolate notes at all. Btw, mine is only just now two weeks into a steep.

Mine was delicious at a couple of months...I didn't get very much from it at first and put it away and forgot about it, but when I pulled it back out after 2 months, the chocolate had really come out and it was rich and creamy! :D

I ordered today 60ml smooth criminal 12mg 70vg and sahara blend, desperado, house blend, kona kick. all 12mg 70vg. 15% off free priority shipping. im on a tobacco kick! last time i odered i got devil dog, it was like licking a ash tray! i came back to it about 2 months later and it was great! like a real good cigarette. i was sorry to see the bottom of that bottle. now i can't order it. I went back to 12mg from 6mg. i find the lower nic really affects the flavor! using a reo grand .8ohm micro coil and sony vct5 battery. its gonna be hard to wait 3 weeks for steeping!!!

If you don't take the caps of for a few minutes they won't start steeping. No wonder they didn't taste right.

just threw my chocolate cream in a kayfun. it's about three weeks old and not the geatest yet, but if I remember correctly others have said its a long steeper. mostly chocolate and not enough cream yet, but I know it will only get better

Thank ya'll..I knew chocolates were long steepers from my DIY experience. That is why I rarely order any chocolate. I will forget about CC for a couple of months.

I'm going to suggest Just Criminal and Caramel Wildwood for you to try on your next order if you are into tobaccos those ones are fabulous!
