Man, my IGO-S, though ordered on the 10th, is still not here. Somehow it got rerouted to Florida. We'll see what the vendor does.

Busy thread today.....
Cool...I associate some with flavors, others for the lessons taught - Ms. E for steeping lessons, Mr. (the) Mann for evaluating supplier quality and NETs,.... Mann, Jerms, New Kid, G. Thompson, Scarf and a few others with NET and Tob direction for a newbie. Others for their gear- LouisLebeau for Caravellas, TCP for glass drips , Raymond (RPad) for his reviews.....
For me it's the straw. CM was straw everything until the BVC that is.
Funny, VERY funny!
I had some really good (bad/funny)follow-ups to this but my discretion got the better of me.

Drink loads of water to counteract the drying effects of PG and VG. Then drink more water. VG is usually less irritating than VG but it is still hygroscopic. If you aren't drinking enough water you would still be likely to experience a dry, scratchy throat even if you switched to very high VG juice.
Also, nicotine from vaping is delivered in a droplet size that is not absorbed by the lungs. Instead nicotine from vaping is absorbed through the mucous membranes in your mouth and nose. You don't need to inhale at all if your throat is sore. Not inhaling at all, or only inhaling very lightly might help your sore throat.
For as long as I have been vaping popular custom juice vendors have had to deal demand outstripping supply. It either takes awhile for juices to ship and/or store hours have been limited.
Ahlusion has recently quadrupled their capacity. However, Wlad has mentioned to me that it is very difficult to find staff that meets their standards. I expect other quality juice vendors face similar challenges. Also, the uncertain regulatory environment makes equipment and infrastructure investment highly risky.
I've never found it onerous to plan my juice ordering habits to accommodate for the shipping times. That has always seem more sensible to me rather than fretting about a reality that is not likely to change in the near term.
My 30 VG /70 PG MI Cherry Tea was quite good after a couple of weeks and mature at a month.
Dang it.
It was snowing here to day and it looks like I lost some stuff while I was clearing off the car...
Vamo - not a crisis but it was one of two vv's I had
Russian 91% - not the clone mind you, the real thing. Cannot even find another one to buy....
last of my Gold Member. Rats, was digging it.
What a day...to forget.
Edit: but my Ahlusion order from yesterday shipped this afternoon and I got my PAPS X ordered this morning,

If you haven't had Smooth criminal yet you really need to try that one as well. It really benefits from some serious steeping so If they have it Express start there. I can attest to Vecchio and Sahara as well. I prefer Sahara over the Vecchio as I feel it's much more balanced juice. It's a tobacco, but more zesty & sweet with a bit of dryness. Vecchio has the vanilla aspect and is very musky, dry tobacco. I have a bottle that's nearly 3 months old and it still feels like the flavors dance around each other but don't entirely connect.Thx Sharon that was really helpful. Vecchio and Sahara it is then!
Ahh finally getting caught up on you guys...a windows 8 update possibly bricked my laptop, so I am relegated to this craptastic and ancient imac until it comes back from the shop. I seriously hope windows 8 dies in a fire, and not from the smoke, but from the flames...
Anyway! I need your expertise once again
I also need help choosing 2 more 10mls to try... I was thinking a coffee, and maybe another non-aro tobacco or fruit. I'm also wanting to try an A+ chocolate something..just not sure which and the budget is small.
Here's what I had from my last two orders:
BGB - Loved it
DD! - Loved it more than BGB
Vurley -- Absolutely cannot and will not live without this to love forever and ever and...ok, that's enough
Sahara Blend -- really liked it, thought I loved it, but more of a friends with benefits kind of thing now
JG Blend -- really liked the coffee part, wasn't sure of the tobacco part, but not sure if coffee/tobacco combos are for me
SC - hated it at first, started to really love it at around 6 weeks (you all were right as usual)
Boba Tea Coconut -- really enjoying it now at around 5 weeks - more tapioca taste than coconut though (still good)
Mango Lassi -- meh...not as good as I was hoping. The mango is toned down and the yogurt is there at around 5 weeks, but probably not a re-order
Gold Rising -- haven't even tried it yet, Jerms' description has scared me off for a while, but it's about 5 weeks old so I'll give it a shot soon
so what do you think?
wow can agree with most (not everything but most) of what you say
most of all this never really happened with any other juice I feel I felt every end of the spectrum with it and in the end the same as you
Sahara Blend -- really liked it, thought I loved it, but more of a friends with benefits kind of thing now
and Vurley really miss it right now
So sad for you that the snow gobbled up your vaping treasures. If you don't have a friend with a metal detector that you can borrow you might want to rent one to see if it can locate your missing items. One of my friend's located her engagement ring she lost in the snow with a metal detector.
Ouch! It always hurts to lose equipment you spent hard earned money on. I can relate all too well. If you lost it in your own driveway there might still be hope though?
Mann & new kid - what a bummer, hope you both find your stuff soon
VJC0628 - I hear you talking. I hope they restock ye ole' vurley in the near future and I somehow magically win a bottle haha.
Still trying to decide on the coffee - what do you guys think between Kent's Blend, Kona Kick, Ahlusion Mocha, and Tiramisu ?
I think you also have convinced me in the last couple pages that I need to try Chocolate Creme for the sample - sounds pretty awesome for a mid-day late morning kinda thing. Tell-a-Nut! looks interesting too, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about it.

Man, Eff this precipitation nonsense. I'd be out there with a colander panning all "miner 49er" style thru this crap till I found it. Snow has taken too much time and energy this year already and I'd be damned if I let it take vape gear!
Hi Mann, two things.....
I'll let you know if I see your Igo
And.....I can't believe what I'm reading! Did you really jump I to the "rebuilding pool" with us?
Good to know. I'm looking forward to the arrival of a few orders from new vendors and Ahlusion is at the top of the list.
Happy vaping!

I might be behind the ball on this -- was out of town for the long weekend and still catching up.
I strongly recommend going 70pg/30vg on CWW if you're looking for more flavor. I ordered it that way the first time and loved it right away. The second time I went 50/50 and noticed a significant decrease in flavor. YMMV.
As for the 2 new ones, go for the Kent's Blend for Coffee, or the Tiramisu. Both on the sweet side of coffees, and I believe KB is JG without the tobacco. For non-aro tob, you might try Shipwreck. For fruit, go for one of the vanilla cakes.

Shhh...
Ha. Well, we'll see.
It happened at work, in the parking lot, which as been plowed since then (I went back to check). So, its probably in a 10 ft snow pile somewhere around the parking lot.
I just needed to vent.
There is something in Sweet Surrender that caused me some discomfort yesterday with my P.M. vape.
I have read here that some people cannot vape certain flavors.
I experienced a tight chest unlike any other Ahlusion flavor I have tried so far. I need to give this one up which is too bad.
Anyone else experience a flavor that caused discomfort to them?

Do you have any food allergies? Sensitivity to PG? Either way, best not to risk it.
None that I know off. Been using 70% PG since I started Vaping. You are right that I need to give this one up.

Sorry to hear this. Just ordered my second real deal Russian 91 a few minutes ago from: Salt Lake Vapors » Russian 91%
As I'm confident you know, I was surprised they still had them in stock.
EDIT: Just an hour after this post and they are sold out. Hope you grabbed one.
