Sorry I missed you before, Shatner, but how the heck are you?
It's wonderful to see a post from you!
However, I'm so sorry to hear that the blues have been getting the better of you. {{{{{LouisLeBeau}}}}} Hope much sunnier days are in your future soonest.If you order more than $20 of juice, not including XPress line, you can request a sample. If juices are not available as samples they will be noted as such in their descriptions.
You have to put in the notes (a very small box at the bottom of the checkout page) what juice you want as a sample, VG/PG ratio, nic level and, where applicable, whether you want sweetener, mint or menthol added.
Ahlusion makes over eighty percent of their flavor bases so their juices don't taste similar to what you get from any other vendor. It's very rare that anyone detects any chemical weirdness or other off notes in their juices.
All of Ahlusion's cherry flavors taste like the real deal, no cough syrup or candy notes. If you love cherry you might want to try the Sweet Cherry Something as well as Cherry Midnight and Contrary Cherry. Sweet Cherry Something tastes to me exactly like a cherry croissant but it takes at least a couple of weeks for the pastry element to come out of hiding.
Several people have said that the flavor is light for Contrary Cherry and Sweet Cherry Something. That has not been at all the case for me. However, my profile is set for maximizing flavor and I order 30 VG / 70 PG and 10 VG / 90 PG juice (note that Ahlusion lists VG first in the dropdown selection). I find that the flavor is brighter in my high PG juice compared to the identical juice with a higher percentage of VG.
I am one of the very few people who like Rick's Request at all ages. Most people prefer it steeped two months plus.
If you like black tea you might prefer Vanilla Black Tea to Vecchio unless you are particularly fond of tobacco vapes. To me the vanilla in the two areis
Sweetener is just a matter of personal preference. I've never had an unsweetened Ahlusion juice that cried out for sweetener nor a sweetened one that tasted syrupy.
Use the contact form on Ahlusion's site set up your profile before ordering. Let them know that you are currently using clearos. There is no substitute for the flavor one gets from dripping but they will try to tweak the flavor to adjust for the muted flavor of the clearos as much as possible.
When you perfect your coil wrapping skills you can ask that your profile be changed for dripping if you find the flavor tweaked for clearos is too strong.
My best friend for wrapping coils has been a large magnifying lamp I've used for crafts. You can pick one up at Joann's or Michaels. They nearly are always running 40-50% off sales and coupon codes. There are quite a few helpful videos for wrapping micro coils in the Micro coil videos thread.

That is so very excellent of you to tweak the flavors!!
And I'm definitely ordering more than 20.00 worth!!!
Thank you for the tips on wrapping coils. ALOT of my problem is sight! That magnifying lamp sounds peachy!
Yes...Contrary Cherry & Cherry Midnight are BOTH on my list. And thanks to your review-The Rice Pudding is BACK on my list!! Hard to decide because there are so many unique flavors to choose from. I definitely wanna try that Honey Blues one.
For me the Gold Member is a steeper. I thought it was pretty good after 2 weeks, but still better as the weeks went on. I know what you mean about coffee, but I get a definite, real caramel flavor now. I didn't really taste the full 'salt' effect until it was 6 weeks old and i tried it in my igo-l.
I've been insanely busy. Spending 18+ hours in the studio/day for the past few months. I've been living up there with my 2 dogs more than my expensive 'luxury apartment'
You know how professional artists life is. Freaking hectic. But I love it and wouldn't give it up for anything.
I'm getting ready for a local art show that's next month. But I'm also getting ready for a large show in NYC later this year. I still need to be jurried in, but I'm pretty sure I have a clever, very technical piece that can grant me a spot.
How the hell have you been? How's the kiddo? Are you enjoying Fatherhood?!

Good, great, and hell yeah!
Good luck with the jurying process. I know how it goes.
Thanks so much. I had given up stalking the web site until I saw your post. I managed to order some and seven hours later GVC is already out of stock. I don't want to bash the kid but this juice is over the top with hype, a web site that is usually closed, and he doesn't answer emails. Please help me understand this? Is it really that good? How long does he steep it? I almost hate to ask this last question /LOL but how long does it take him to ship and what method?
I guess part of my purchase was motivated by my curiosity since I already mix a twist/tweak using Capellas Vanilla Custard and found the following thread with some additional tweaks at: Grants Vanilla Custard Clone I'm certainly not inferring my mix is a clone, just saying that I like it a lot.
/ Sorry to go off topic a bit
You bast.... lucky guy. By the time I made it to the website it was all sold out. I really love my Grant's. It's a bit, I don't know, has a bit richer maybe more egg taste than other vanilla custards I've tried. He steeps it 21 days before he sells it. After you receive it, it will continue to darken up a bit to a rich amber color. If you don't like it I'd gladly buy it depending on the nic level.
As far as shipping I don't really remember who he uses. I think just the Royal post. I think mine took two weeks or so to reach me but it's been a while.
I guess I'll keep checking with VapourArt and Pink Mule as they sell GVC as well as I'm down to probably my last 10ml's of it. Guess I shouldn't have slept in today.
So glad to hear, friend! Thanks for the well wishes. I knew you'd get it. Don't forget: I want to give you monies for a painting.
Is Bryce's still only sold through Facebook? Because I abhor FB and refuse to get an account. I actually did a juice trade with him a while back and he sent me a sample before he started selling it. I kept forgetting I had it then ended up losing it when I had my accident a couple weeks ago. I'm a real fan of the custards that are egg heavy in taste.
I think he's working on a website but yeah-still Facebook for now. But if you PM him on here he can help. You pay thru PayPal which I like a lot so...if you don't have PayPal, you're scr#wed
sorry I can't give you better news...
No drama! riiiiiiight...I couldn't stand it
We did have some drama. Once.
Hid.. ate.. marital acts.. whatever, either way the body was thoroughly desecrated.
I'm beginning to worry about you, Jerms ol' buddy . . .
Beginning?
Greetings Shatner, I'd ask but already answered. Good to see you back here. Understand about the Just. Same issues I had with House Blend. Think for me it was device related, but I could never get the tob back after the choc took over.
May have to try it again, think there is a little left...
Okay..
