Still haven't tried my lemon cream, bought a 30ml based on all the good reviews. On the topic of shipwreck, it burns cleanly (cleaner than cww) but the flavor stays and stays on the coil and wick. I am not digging it so far, this is my second small bottle.

I just went through all the juices and I've got one thing to ask and I'll jump (next month when I'm paid and I throw down on the most amount of juice). I've tried a couple different Tiramisu flavors (it's my favorite dessert) and they're all terrible. Has anyone tried their Tiramisu? How good is it? Going through this site has made my mouth water. Then again, I am hungry.

The Ahlusion Tiramisu comes across to my tastebuds as an excellent coffee vape. I like it better as a coffee than some of the actual coffees.
ETA: boy, big boo boo. added word Tiramisu so you all know what I thought I was talking about. Sorry about that.

Shipwreck was one of only 2 A+ juices that I didn't get along with. The 2nd, coincidentally, considering etchie's post following yours, is Tiramisu. Shipwreck finished with a florally thing for me that I just couldn't get past. I liked it briefly FOOB, but it had no legs. I waited for a very long time to like Tiramisu. I kept smelling it at various stages and it seemed so nice. The vape just disappointed for some reason. When done well, Tiramisu is one of my favorite desserts, as well, so I guess the bar is just too high.
On a more positive note, I just loaded up the Kraken with four-day-old Piña Colada. I worried that it would be mostly pineapple because the aroma was the same as Pineapple Upside Down Cake to me. I worried for not. It's precisely as advertised. It's a really pleasant piña colada complete with an authentic coconut finish. Bonus that it didn't need a lot of steep time. Will it stay the same?
On a side note, I'm really tempted to grab another Kraken since they're in stock online. I really wanted to be done with buying gear, though. I have certainly spent more than my share. It's just such an amazing atty. I have other gennies, but they don't really compare. I love the KFLs - they are also amazing, but fiddly. ahh 1st world dilemmas.. heh oi.
The Kraken looks good, but I've never really gotten into using a genesis style rba. I am in the market for a new rda though, all I have is the patriot.
Wow, that is really weird that I happened to post about that right then. I think coffee flavors (along with chocolate) are the hardest to pull off so it doesn't really surprise me when I try one and it isn't good. the only good coffee flavor I've ever had is Caviar (G2). Tiramisu is off my list then. I know taste is subjective, but I really can't afford to get another one I'm not satisfied with. I need the next one to be perfect! I might even start a thread on that tomorrow (about to go to bed).
I keep a spreadsheet of flavors I've tried, along with the vendor and a few other things. When I decide I want to try out a vendor, I go ahead and choose the flavors I want to try and I put them in the spreadsheet. All of the flavors that are listed in red are ones that I haven't tried yet but want to. A few are in gold because they are my all-time favorites. It's in alphabetical order by vendor so Ahlusion is listed first.
What do you guys think of my selections? Do you have a favorite you would like to recommend that I add to the list or anything I should remove from it? I knew the spreadsheet would come in handy. I just made the thing because I wanted to get a better idea of what I liked. Can't wait to start doing drafts!
Check out the spreadsheet here: https://www.icloud.com/iw/#numbers/BAIkaZRbsK10dl9i8OeBp067AVlo20fx0ziF/E-liquid
I just realized I have to change my statement since I now don't want to get the Tiramisu. I'm still going to order from here next month. I love how passionate everyone in this thread is about this vendor. Again, let me know what you guys think about my selections!
Skip the MBV and go straight to Southern Steams Ol Colorado, Vaping Birdy Green Parakeet is good, not bold enough for me. Cool spreadsheet. I started one once but ended up being a big mess
You probably shouldn't take just my word for it. There are lots of guys on here that like A+ Tiramisu, like ShariR.
That's a huge and impressive spreadsheet. I will say that I haven't tried hardly anything on it though, so I can't be of much help.
I checked out your spreadsheet. I think you are going to have a long list of Ahlusion juices on there as time goes on. I found the AIV and the Vapor Chef juices too subtle for me. The Oorah was too much tobacco for my taste; I am more of a Smooth Criminal, and Caramel Wild Wood tobacco vaper. I am finding I really like the Just Criminal.
I do not see The Plume Room on your spreadsheet. You should check them out. The do a Flavor of the Week so you can try a 30ml for a good price. I like their Honey Fig Tobacco and Candied Cavendish tobacco. My Ahlusion still tops them though.
I do not vape MBV, High Dessert, Deejstuff or Virgin Vapor. The base being used does not agree with my tastes and with VV I can not vape the 100%vg or high vg.
Sounds like you have a lot of tasting to do on your vaping journey.
I'm just not ready to move to something different like carto tanks yet. I just got bottom coil Kangers figured out and they are relatively inexpensive. Grab a couple Mini 2 tanks from the flavor vault, an Ecom, and I'm out the door quickly for work. Innokin clearos and I do not get along. I love the MVPs though. All this talk about lemon and lime cream is going to make me buy a few more tanks
+1 for MVP. I finally caved this spring and brought a Provari..and I do like it but I have 8 MVPS and they are all I use, and their total cost was..yeah..about the same as that Provari that I would never walk my dog with. The vape is great and consistent, they don't roll, fit in my messed up hands just fine..and the battery life is awesome! Hurrah!

The iClear 30S is the only one I've cared for...wouldn't have tried it if it hadn't come with the MVP. I haven't cared for the others. I have the 16b that matches my MVP and the taste is blah. It's bottom dual coil and just like the EVOD but has half the flavor. My carto tanks will always be my favorite. I love the way they taste and vape. Being gorgeous is just an added bonus!
Lol..good name for it. How about Pineapple "Pick Me Up" and Lemon "Calming" Cream. As long as I have them I'm good. Pineapple is still my number one though. I never get tired of vaping it.
I like Lemon Cream best when it's fresh. It's good steeped but I like the extra lemon at the beginning before the cream comes out. It's the same with the Pineapple Cream. There are many flavors that I love to vape throughout the steeping.
I've never changed flavors in a tank or an EVOD unless I'm changing the carto or coil at the same time or if it's a complimentary flavor that I want to try a slight mix of the flavors. Any of the cream flavors are good for this.
Hi Shari,
Just Criminal was on my short list to order, but I screwed up and never put it in my cart.
Is the chocolate in JC a deep, rich chocolate, or is it more along the lines of a cocoa? I ask because while I love eating rich dark chocolate, I prefer vaping more of a smooth, sweet / semi- sweet cocoa. I just can't handle the "bitter" that sometimes accompanies chocolate...
As for Smooth Criminal, Wlad should change the words "best by" to.... "don't vape until"- leaving the actual date alone- of course.
Ahlusion is the one place I've found that has "gotten" chocolate and coffee. They have 7 different chocolate flavors, probably more by now. Orange Nocturne tastes exactly like the orange shaped flavored chocolate ball. Ahlusion Mocha tastes just like the mocha I drink. I'm drinking one and vaping it now. I love it! I searched forever for a good chocolate and never found one until Ahlusion. The only other place that I found a vapeable coffee was Vanilla Caramel Cappuccino from The Plume Room. Obviously I wasn't looking for a straight coffee. Ahlusion has a lot of amazing coffees. The Kona Coffee is terrific. It tastes just like Kona coffee. Kent's Blend and Light French Roast are both very good. Boba Tea with Coffee is also another really good flavor. If you want tobacco then JG Blend is tobacco infused with coffee beans and is so good. Kent's Blend is the coffee without the tobacco.
I like the fact that Ahlusion doesn't add anything unnecessary to their juice. They also refuse to use some flavors that stop them from making some flavors like custard and cinnamon. If there is any question about safety Ahlusion doesn't compromise at all. One thing that really turns me off is juice that has food coloring added to it. There is simply no reason for it.
Now that I know more if I was going to do business with another company I would ask in their forums or an email about additives and food coloring. Do they use diacetyl? Probably best to do it in an email directly to the company. You don't want to end up starting a fight in the forums. Some companies have pretty hard core fans and they won't like any questions being asked.
Do add The Plume Room to your list. They make some good juice! But it is higher VG so I have to avoid it. I see you have AIV White Rabbit on your list. That's a good juice. Another one I really enjoyed but had to give up because of the high VG.
I love my Provari's (2) and I love my MVPs (3). I bought my Pink Provari over 2 years ago but only got my first MVP a few months ago and promptly bought 2 more. If I'd bought the first one I'd have a dozen or more by now. I do like the fact that I can swap out the batteries on my Provari. I also have 3 Vamos, an eVic, a SID, 10 bolts, a dozen different clones, about 20 K100s, 3 K200s, an Innokin SVD (hate it). Oh, and my expensive dressed up bottom feeder that I can't remember the name of because I never use it. But it's really pretty, Lol. I also have every ego king and Queen 1100 and a bunch of twists. I've also got about 30 custom made drip tips and I never use drip tips anymore.
Did I say I have too much stuff?
I will try to answer you the best I can. To start, I can't vape Smooth Criminal fresh. The spice is too strong for me. I am sensitive to cinnamon and my tastebuds read whatever spices Wlad is using as a cinnamon type bite to me. I need to wait a good 4 to 5 weeks for it to calm down.
With the Just Criminal, I can vape that within a week of opening the bottle. I have the 10ml plastic bottle, 12mg, 30vg/70pg. I taste the Criminal tobacco, no or very little spice. I taste the cocoa. It is not the same as used in the Orange Nocturne or Cherry Midnight. It is smooth, mild, without bitterness. The flavor of the cocoa and tobacco seems balanced to me. One does not overpower the other.
There is sweetness there, but I can not determine if it is the sweet edge of Smooth Criminal or something out of the likes of the Chocolate Cream. There are some here that describe Smooth Criminal as a desert tobacco. Then Just Criminal would be the desert tobacco with chocolate. You are not going to get a 'bite' out of this. It is an intriguing balance of flavors.
I really enjoy the Just Criminal. I am going to order a 30ml of it before I jump to 60ml status. I want to see how it ages.
For comparison, I got my bottle of Peachy Criminal the same order. I am still looking for the peach to come through. Although, to be fair, I seem to have trouble with peach flavors.
I think you can not go wrong with a 10ml bottle of the Just Criminal. You will not find any bitter taste in it. If anything it may have too much of a sweet note to it if you are looking for a big tobacco taste.

The first thing I tasted was Chocolate Cream. It's just like my bottle of well steeped Chocolate Cream! I get a very mild tobacco from it, too.
I got the Cherry Wild Wood. I'm looking for the Cherry in it.
It's strange how the caramel is so strong but I can't find any cherry!

I had to steep my Chocolate Cream for a long time for the chocolate to really come out. More than a couple months. It almost seemed like a very high vg juice to me when I would taste it in the early weeks. Now that it has aged I really enjoy it.
I am having the problem with peaches that you are having with the cherry. Frustrating. Hopefully it will eventually come forward. I find Caramel Wild Wood to be excellent. Sometimes I find the tobacco to be a bit too much like a cigarette. Is that taste dryness or ash?
Hi guys, do any of yall know how long lime cream takes to steep and also if the milk note goes away or mellows?
Strawberry Sunset
Wipeout Honeydew
Mango Colada

This was my first Ahlusion order I'm in love with each and every flavor, some more than others of course.....except for the Boba's Tea. I just don't get any special flavors out of it...if I had one of the fruit mixed versions, I might feel differently. Mango Colada was so good I filled an entire tank last night and it's already almost gone! For the past few months I've had a major craving for fruit flavored sweet flavors. These hit the bulls eye like a master marksman. I've spent the past two years mixing my own juice from time to time, so I know what kind of skill it requires to create flavors that are this....dare I say verging on "perfect"? I'm a big fan of the Vaperite a pixie line. Some of these have some of the same elements, but they have more depth. Has anyone tried anything that is in the same range of quality as these flavors? These are A+ gourmet juice flavors. no question. They have a mixologist with some major talent! I'm in VAPE heaven!
