Thanks for the update, LLB. I'm breathing a sigh of relief, since none of my "can't possibly survive withouts" are on the list :) , but also a heavy sigh since it took me two years to try Van Mango, and it's wonderful. :( .

I wanted to try Van Mango too.

Since Van Mango's not an option, what do you all think of Summer Tide and Moonlight Serenade -- tasty, lot's of flavor, or subtle?

I'm a huge fan of Moonlight Serenade. I think it has lots of flavor, but as you know, Ahlusion's "lots of flavor" doesn't punch you in the face. Summer Tide is OK, but I think it's kind-of weird. It's similar flavor profile to Moonlight Serenade, but with the addition of coconut. I like coconut, and in particular Ahlusion's coconut, but I just don't think it works here. Another mango you might like (that hasn't been cut) is Mango Lassi. I really liked Mango Colada, too, but I see that is no longer there, either. :( I wonder when that happened? I hadn't ordered it in a long time, and didn't notice when it went away.

Now that I'm looking at the menu, I might have to try Summer Tide again, as they have paired there mango offerings down significantly.

Anyway, yes. I highly recommend Moonlight Serenade. I get it with Breeze, which might sound weird, but it totally works.

It's hard to decide which one to try in a big and a little bottle. By reading the description, it sounds like the Summer Tide would have a stronger Mango taste and it's higher up on the chopping block list than the Moonlight. It got fewer save-me votes by almost half too, so I'll probably be able to order Moonlight later.

I love the Mango Lassi! It's my favorite Ahlusion juice and the only Ahlusion liquid I've bought in a 60 ml. bottle so far, but I'm about to remedy that soon.

So, our conversation prompted me to search around in my vape drawer and find my INCREDIBLY well-steeped (best by 12/2014) sample of Summer Tide. I'm tasting it now on a new coil, and it tastes exactly like I remember it. The long-term steep didn't turn it into a magical elixir, buy it hasn't gone bad, either. Unless the recipe has changed in the past two years, which it well could have, it isn't as mango-y as I would want it to be. It's much more coconut than fruit. It's OK, but I'm still not a huge fan. The Moonlight Serenade is much juicier. It's too bad that Van Mango is gone immediately after I finally got around to trying it, because it seems to be the fullest, fruitiest, juiciest of all their mango flavors.

Thanks for the scoop!! So much juice to try! I'll just let the Summer Tide go the way of the DoDo bird then.

The culling has begun.... The following flavors are no longer on the menu. Since they all disappeared at one time, I am assuming they are not out of an ingredient, but have removed them more or less permanently. The fallen include:
. . .
Ricks Request*

*Hahahahaha Dawg!! Just yankin ya chain! Ricks Request isn't going anywhere... :) Pretty funny that Ricks Request is followed by Royal Tease and Sirius..

Oh, you're baaaaaad, LLB! My heart nearly stopped (on behalf of the Dog-man) when I saw RR on your list! :lol:

Same here... I can't do 50/50. I could add some PG to my juices, but that would dilute the flavors. Oy... I hate the FDA.

I'm pretty sure Ahlusion can't afford to test every possible combination of PG/VG/flavors as required per those stupid regulations, so they'll have to limit our choices to be able to stay afloat. :-x

So, unless they start selling flavor concentrates, no more Ahlusion for me. :cry:

We're safe for a bit longer but once the custom line is gone I won't be able to vape Ahlusion either. :( I just can't go higher than 30VG.

Although I am stocking my favorites, I am also planning for the future. I have some NIC in the freezer, I want to get a little more. I have flavors and have a whole Word document full of recipes. Several I have made I can definitely vape, although not as good as some of my favorite vendors. I can also vape unflavored if necessary (I have tried it and not bad!). I will also lower my NIC level so what NIC I have when the boom drops will last as long as I need it to. I figure better to be prepared, we don't know when it will happen, but I fear it WILL happen and they will just wham, bam, thank you mam, hit us.

Don't mean to be a "Debbie Downer", but I was a good Girl Scout... (oh, that's Boy Scouts but we girls ain't no fools!)

I've got my large bottle of 100mg nicotine in the freezer. Everything else we'll still be able to buy. I figure that a liter of 100mg should make a lot of juice plus I'll start cutting back on the nicotine. I vape 6mg now.

Good evening... Louis invited me to poke my head in here. Kinda "homeless" at the moment. I've never tried ahlusion, but I hear good comments.

I DIY. Stocking for the vapocalypse.... I fear its coming :(

Well, thanks for letting me visit :)

Welcome @DingerCPA! It's nice to have new friends. :)

Added a blog article with my spreadsheet attached....

DingerCPA's blog | E-Cigarette Forum

Thank you! I'm saving recipes since I know the times coming when I'll need them.

Welcome, Dinger! I've never made my own juice but I'm not bad in the kitchen.

NOW. I got a response from Ahlusion, from Alley, in fact, and it says that custom orders will continue to be available when they switch over to the new website. So we're safe for the time being!

Thank you, @PennyLynn! I did contact them and ask if they'd give a warning before we lose the custom option. I'm going to miss my Pineapple Cream the most. I'm hoping they'll warn us so I can stock up on my top flavors. :confused::(

Good morning everyone :) .....might want to head on over here and put your vote in....just sayin'.... ;) (hopefully they don't mind me sharing)

Ahlusion LLC - List of flavors to be cut

Thank you, @tyleris12 I'm glad I got online in time to vote.

Thanks Louis! I appreciate the welcome. I look forward to posting with you!

Welcome, @JustWondering1! It's nice to meet you. :)

Ooooohh.. wait a sec.. Remember the request on the website a few months ago, asking what your FAVORITE flavor was?!? I'm not a gambling man (liar!), but I'd BET that was at least partially what they used, to spare the necks of flavors that their "biggest fans" liked best. What they are talking about? Maybe?

The only email I know of was one asking if there was a flavor we'd like to have specially created just for us.

I want to try that one. It sounds wonderful.

I tried the Lemon Ginger Iced Tea for the first time a few minutes ago and you are right. It's sooo good! The lemony iced tea on its own is excellent, but the ginger takes it over the top. I added a bit of koolada and it's perfect. This one is # 24 on the chopping block list and that's not good!

The best thing about Lemon Ginger Iced Tea, after the flavor, is that it cures heartburn! I get terrible heartburn after taking steroids and vaping this flavor stops it! I can't vape any other flavor until the side effect has passed.

Ahlusion has a new FB post up showing off the new bottle and suggesting that people who normally order custom give the new line a try. Not much info except to say there there will be choices forPG/VG levels.
Oh! I really hope there will be a choice for lower VG. I'm not ready to start making juice yet. I've got one or two more surgeries to go before I would be able to do it. So I'm hoping the custom line is around long enough for me to get back on my feet.

I just don't want to even think of not being able to vape Ahlusion. I'm going to start stocking up on my top flavors. Pineapple Cream, Lemon Cream, Pina Colada, Mango Lassi, Caramel Pear White Tea, Peaches and Cream, and Wipeout Watermelon. I just discovered Wipeout Watermelon and it's amazing! Then there's all the other flavors that I love but I don't think my husband will let me take over the whole fridge. :rolleyes:

Hi Bukket5,

It's nice to meet you too. That's cool about the Lemon Ginger Iced Tea helping with heartburn. I'm going to remember that and vape accordingly.

Tell me how long you steep Ahlusion's Peaches & Cream before you think it is ready to go? I have a 10 ml. bottle that has been steeping for about six weeks. The last time I vaped it was probably two or three weeks ago, and while the flavor was nice, I wanted it to have more peach flavor, so I put it back in the steep box. I'm going to try it again this weekend, and I hope it will shine this time. I haven't ordered any of the others you mentioned, except for the Mango Lassi, and it's probably my favorite juice ever.

JW

P.S. I tried the Peaches & Cream again and I like it a lot. It's delicious! My personal preference would be for it to have a little more of a tart peach flavor, but I am kind of fanatical about peach.

I have Summer Tide and like it. Lots of coconutty goodness which is always good to me 1)AHLusion has great coconut 2) adds a bit of bite as in TH

Thanks. I hope it won't get chopped! I would like to try it. I didn't order it this time around. I got 60s of Fijian Nights and Cheehu Cocktail and a 10 of Coco Berry Cream. I sure hope I like the Cheehu since I ordered a big bottle of it without ever having tasted it. I liked the Alpha Centauri so much I decided to gamble on the Cheehu, since I am sure it's going to be cut.

I'm glad that you liked it! I let mine steep about 2-4 weeks but I also tend to mix my bottles by adding some that has steeped for only 2 weeks to the older bottle that is being used.

Peaches and Cream is my go to flavor first thing when I wake up. It has very little throat hit and a smooth creamy flavor. It's also my go to flavor any time my throat is bothering me. I've been vaping a lot of it since I just had neck surgery and they moved my esophagus to reach the discs. Even though I rarely inhale when I vape I was worried that I wouldn't be able to vape but I've found that it soothes it instead of making it worse. I've also been drinking a lot of herbal tea. I just bought a Keurig machine and it's getting a lot of use. I vape Lemon Cream and drink Lemon Zinger tea. They go together perfectly!

You have to try Pineapple Cream (Sweetened)! Even if you never use sweetener trust me this is one juice that has to be sweetened. It is a completely different flavor and has been my favorite for years. It is a Pineapple Ice Cream flavor.

You haven't tried Lemon Cream? It's amazing! Lots of us keep it in the sealed packaging and refrigerated so it doesn't steep. It's the best fresh. Still one of the best after steeping but those first few tanks of fresh Lemon Cream are really hard to beat. No sweetener needed. It has a bright fresh Lemon taste that isn't tart. As it steeps the cream will show up but it never overpowers the Lemon flavor.

I always keep a tank of Lemon Ginger Iced Tea on hand. I love it for the flavor but when I get heartburn it works immediately to stop it for me. I'm thinking it's the ginger that Ahlusion uses that does it.

Cheehu Cocktail is really good. I'm sure you'll like it! Hawaiian Sun is another newer flavor that is good along with the Lychee Coconut Smoothie. They're all really flavorful. There's nothing muted about them.

They're skipping the "Shipping Label Created" and "Pre-Shipping Notification Sent to USPS" steps so they must be buying stamps for your package at the post office when they drop off their mail for the day. That saves half a day but still doesn't explain why you got it before Saturday.

No. The post office picks up there around 4pm. Everything's already labeled and ready. By the way, the Swartz Creek post office is right behind the Ahlusion building, and a few workers there have quit smoking thanks to that proximity.

I'm not worried anymore! I posted in the comments and Wlad replied to me. There will be lower VG options in the Elite line! :wub:

This is his response. I'm sure it's fine to post since it is in the open comments:

Not to worry - you replied to that e-mail on 11/03/2015 7:45 pm actually. And we are aware of the VG intolerances - we actually have more customers online who dislike VG and we have accounted for that in our upcoming Elite line - I would highly recommend trying the best flavor option.

In case you didn't notice there is a comment section at the bottom of this page:
