Xtreme- Late August, Early September I think.

It was posted on Facebook in July but most only found out in August..I noticed a difference when I got a bottle in September and stopped ordering in October altogether.

Looking forward to my monthly order including AHL.

I'd like to try some of Ahlusion's e-juices, but want to make sure I've got the ordering dynamics straight, so please let me know if I've got it right.

If I order 3 x 10ml bottles of Express eliquid I would pay $8 per bottle, or $24 for 30 ml of e-juice. So it would cost me $0.80 per ml, plus shipping.

If, on the other hand, I order 3 x 10ml bottles of Custom e-juices, I would pay $9 per bottle, or $27 for 30 ml of e-juice. However, upon request, I would likely receive an additional 10 ml "sample" bottle of a 4th flavor, so it would end up costing me $27 for 40 ml of e-juice, or roughly $0.68 per ml plus shipping.

That can't be right, can it? :?: How large are the "sample" bottles?

yeah you got it right. sample bottles are 10 ml. make sure the flavor you are requesting is available as a sample because they won't throw in a different sample if it isn't. they also have sales quite often which shows up in your cart without a code. so if you don't see a discount you might wanna try at a different time.

Thanks for the quick reply.

How do you know that the requested flavor "is available as a sample"? (Sorry if I'm being obtuse about this, but this is one heck-uv-a-long thread. I'm still back in the mid-30 page zone.)

If all this is true, why would anyone order Express e-liquids? Is it supposed to be pre-steeped or sumpthin'?

Yes xpress juices are made in batches whereas the regular line is mixed on order. I have received xpress juices that where steeped for a month or even longer ( look at the best by date and the juice is made a year before that date). Not that the juices are not good foob but they improve with age imo ( even the xpress bottles ) although some people prefer certain juices fresh.

If the juice is not available as a sample it is stated on the product description page.

When you go onto the description page of a particular eliquid there will be a statement if it is not available for samples. So go look up the flavors you are interested in before ordering and if one you like is a 'no sample' flavor, buy that flavor and pick the other one as your sample. You must state flavor, nic mg, and vg/pg level in the comments portion at the very end of the ordering processes. It is a tiny box so make sure you look for it.

The Xpress liquids are pre steeped for 2 weeks. That is enough for some flavors and some people. I like some flavors, especially tobaccos steeped for a month or longer so Xpress does me no good. Also, they are a 50/50 mix, I believed. The customs allow you to choose different things like nic level, vg/pg level and sweetness, for some flavors. I almost always get custom.

You are in for a treat. Have fun.

Thanks all! :)

I'll go back to slogging through this thread. :vapor:

If you have any particular flavor(s) you are considering, post a question here. I am not sure how good the search function on ECF works for that type of search. I have not had good luck with it.

A lot of us here will post detailed impressions on flavors they get from Ahlusion. The posts seem to go in waves. A new flavor will come out and there will be a lot of discussion for a while.

'K. TY!

I've been on a hunt for D & AP free e-juices recently and came across Ahlusion a couple of days ago. It's gonna be hard to choose just a few flavors to order as there are so many. I started jotting some Flavors down on a spreadsheet, but I was quickly overwhelmed by the multitude of choices. NP though...at the moment I've got a bit of a stash of steeped juices that I want to work through and I've already settled on some choices from another vendor.

I'll get around to Ahlusion soon enough, though, and I'll take you up on that offer! :)

Funny thing. I noticed that people use "Ahl" as an abbreviation for "Ahlusion". On my 1st gen iPad "Ahl" looks very much like "Ahi", which is "tuna" where I'm from. So you can imagine what comes to mind when I read things like "I've been vaping Ahl all day today". :D

Also, on samples... You might want to specify a second choice. On my most recent order, I asked for a sample of peaches and cream. I got a note on my packing slip that it was currently not available. I've always gotten the samples I requested otherwise, though. As long as they were not listed as "not available for samples".

Bukket, I think you might have just become my enabler on this one. Boba Tea on steroids? I haven't heard that comparison yet, but how can I resist?



Hmmm. I got some Rune recently as a sample (w/Breeze), and I think it's kind-of weird. It's still growing on me, though. I got some Cantal-Berry Ice, too, and it seems similar. I'm just not sure about them yet, but I'll keep trying. I've been around the Ahlusion block enough times to know that the first month (or two, or even six!) don't necessarily tell you all you need to know about a juice. And I know exactly what you mean about too much juice and too many favorites! I need to stop ordering new things, because I keep finding new "must-haves"!

I get Rune and Cantal-Berry Ice with no mint or menthol. I don't like anything covering up my fruit flavors. I think Cantal-Berry Ice would hold up better with it added than Rune though. Rune is so good as is. Rick's Request is getting even better as it steeps! I went through the 10ml sample so fast it didn't have time. Lol. I can't believe this one hasn't been talked about more.

Oh, the shopping cart is showing 30% off for me if signed out but no code at all when signed in. Just the 20% off for having Gold status. I think it's something in the system since no one can order without being signed in.

I have missed Rick's so much..I can't wait til Friday to order a 60ml. Oh and Godfather get's good reports does it not? I've only asked one AHL fan.
I can't decide whether to order a 60ml or go with a 30..Oh well..Friday is a few days away. I need reports on Godfather peeps! :p

I didn't get a sample either on my last order as well. Bananas Foster .... I would give three choices from now on.

I know I'm also waiting for someone to tell us that Godfather is the real deal. I'm sure it is... should just order it already before my code expires.

Just putting an order together and see 30% off ... I remember the good old days you could stack coupons, they seemed to have fixed that lol.
