Regarding the Coffee flavors, I'm not a big fan of the Cafe au Lait. JG Blend is very good, but by far my favorite is the Kona Kick. Kona coffee and chocolate??! What's not to love, there? Mmmm....

Kona Kick is one of my favorites too. Haven't tried it with chocolate, though.

This morning I went for my dripper that had some Light French Roast in it from yesterday morning. My opinion has leapt from it being just ok to being a juice I really like. It's such a pure, black cup of coffee, no funny business. Taking a vape when waking was as enjoyable as the first sip from a mild cup of coffee.

Switching to 90%vg Cafe Au Lait was a pretty natural transition. Similar style, pure unsweetened coffee taste, but this time with a little cream. While LFR is like a mild cup of coffee though, CAL has moved further into a weak cup of coffee. It's ok and pleasant, but loses some of the coffee complexities of LFR.

To be fair to these, at 6mg nic they are much lower than I'm used to, which always makes a juice seem more bland to me. They may have more impact for me if I was vaping them at a higher nic and with a more even pg/vg ratio. As of now, I will enjoy CAL as a mild, unabtrusive vape, but LFR I can see looking forward to vaping and may order a bottle of with my normal options.

Looking forward to Kona Kick tomorrow!

Please post your impression of the Contrary Cherry. It's the one flavor included in my recent order that I was most looking forward to, and yet turned out to be the most disappointing. Keep in mind that mine was not Xpress, so it's only a week old. It's really just a mild vanilla milkshake flavor at this point- there is a wonderful cherry aroma, but little, if any, cherry flavor. I'm hoping it will improve with age. Please describe what it tastes like to you, since yours has likely been steeping for a while. Thanks!

Yes, there is cherry in there, like a mild cherry vanilla pancake (if there is such a thing). You get it more in the nose on the exhale than in the flavor on the inhale. I think I would like a little more cherry to be in a higher profile to it, but it's good none the less. On the other hand, it does build in flavor the more you vape it, it's like after awhile the other flavors take a bit of a back seat to the cherry, and it becomes more pronounced. Like it says.. contrary cherry :)

Did you say that in the feedback email that you get?

Contrary Cherry was one I was a bit disappointed in, I like the flavors just not strong enough for me. Way to mild on both vanilla and Cherry, but what is there is really good. I actually like mine mixed with Sweet Surrender. I add half and half in a carto and it is really good. I will order both again just so I can mix them :) bnrk

Just got my first order from ahlusion. Ordered sweet strawberry, berry potter, blue grass, & devil dog (maple tree was sampler). My go to juice are normally GEJ & HHV.
I don't know what it is but in the fruit department I don't get the same natural taste from ahlusion like the HHV purity lines. It tastes more sweeter/syrupy to me. Also, HHV purity fruits never needed any steeping, perfect right out of mailbox. I can't say the same for ahlusion, I was getting an alcohol/baking soda taste.
I haven't tried the devil dog yet, but the blue grass is pleasantly reminiscent of a strong grandpa cigar, but I still get that alcohol taste. The GEJ never needed any steep, it just matured.
Are my taste buds off

I will start by saying I like 90% of all ahlusion juice but there have been some of the fruits i didnt care for..notably cranberry autum and son of a peach...the cranberry autumn did taste a bit chemically....the son of a peach wasnt for me but i could tell it was well made...

as for the NETs, the only NETs i've tried have come from ahlusion...i think they just aren't for me though once a week or so i'll have some devil dog with beer...they did improve after 2 weeks but i just dont think its my thing

So far Kona Kick is like a mildish cup of coffee with some lightly sweet chocolate flavored creamer added. The coffee seems very similar in flavor and impact as the Light French Roast. I'll have to vape them side-by-side to see if I notice differences, the Kona Kick right now seems like it may be a little stronger. The chocolate is a nice addition and plays really well with the coffee.

Again, I'm really enjoying Ahlusion's take on coffees. As much as I like drinking a strong cup of joe, strong coffee vapes often end up tasting like burnt coffee with the few I've had. These are more like a mild cup of coffee, but made with flavorful, premium coffee so it tastes pleasant instead of light (except for Cafe Au Lait, which does seem a little light).

Many Ahlusion flavors wow me with how uniquely amazing they are. The coffees I more subtly appreciate; they are respectably well-done.

I find all fruit liquids are too tart until they steep. This certainly goes for HHV's purity line, too, in my opinion. End of the day we all have different tastes. I love HHV, but I love Ahlusion more. Sometimes steeping is well worth it. Look at Boba's Bounty - goes from nasty to maybe the best vape in the business over time.

Definitely try MI Cherry Tea for a big ... cherry blast.

I love the natural fresh tartness from unsteeped HHV fruit purity's. It's the alcohol/baking soda aftertaste I'm getting in ahlusion that i'm not used too. Also, I doubt the sweet syrupy taste will ever turn into a natural tart fruit taste i'm so used to getting from HHV. It's really not bad, but I was expecting something different.
