I asked for blueberry colada as a sample. Now, I can't wait to try it. Those are my top two favorite vapes: blueberry and pineapple.

I'm not tasting blueberry in this one....but again, its still very young, so there is a chance that will change. I really hope it does....as I was hoping for blueberry balanced with a yummy creamy coconut & pineappple. We'll see!

I had to go ahead and jump into the Car-Mal Mambo, mainly because I have been out of the Caramel Pear Black Tea, and really craving it. I will say....this is definitely delicious already. I can't even IMAGINE it possibly getting any better, but somehow I am sure it will. Hopefully I have enough left to let it get to that point!

Mr.Mann - congrats on the paintings! That is AWESOME!!! :)

Dang, looks like I missed the order window again. Three days in a row! :cry:

And I have to teach all day tomorrow. Ugh. Work is getting the way...where are my priorities!


Awww, sorry man! :\ Looks like I got in just under the wire... ordered 30 minutes ago.

(If you email Wlad, he might be willing to tell you when they'll be open next?)

I'd maybe keep checking today even...I think its a little confusing when it says 'closed for the DAY", because that leads everyone to think it won't be open again until tomorrow, but I have seen it say that, and then be open again 30 minutes later. I'd just keep checking.

I always have the A+ site open, even when I don't intend on ordering. I think things are moving along since the site is posting that they are looking for employees. Imagine that, posting about jobs on the site?! Wow, they've always got something special going on.

Alright. Fijian Nights, DOB 9/11/12
The components have really melded together. I honestly cannot even distinguish pineapple (nor any particular fruit) anymore, just a pleasant tropical fruitiness. It's creamy and mildy sweet, mildly spicy. I couldn't tell you what spice in particular - maybe nutmeg? I will probably order this again one day, if a flavor bump is possible, as it's still a little on the subtle side for me. The description says mint, but I never got any mint in this one. The exhaled vapor on this juice is one of the most fantastic ones I've ever smelled.

Sorry, that's all I gots! :p

Ok..so I have tried my newest flavor, spending the evening with it...

Luna Fortuna 24mg 50/50 -Breeze

I have had this steeping since I got it on the 13th. This juice is all about the pineapple..and there is definitely some coconut right there from the get go under the pineapple. I swear these two combined together reminds me of some kind of tropical fruity tea. This juice, for me, is almost too sweet. I didn't even get it sweetened and the sweetness is just punching my tastebuds; be advised there is no artificial sweetened taste here..just the natural sweetness that comes from pineapples and coconuts..it's a very natural tasting sweetness. The breeze does help keep it from being overly sweet, and more than likely, I will slap a few drops of sleighride for a little more mint to calm it down a little before the night is over. I do like this juice..but this will more than likely be an occasional order for a switch up on flavors to keep my vapebuds on their toes...but next time, I am definitely going for some flurries rather than the breeze.

I have half of the bottle steeping for a couple more weeks, so I will definitely come back with a follow up if I get some changes.

My FN was about the same. Really nice flavor but it was very faint. Smelled great. Mine stepped for 6 weeks (BD 9/3) and I did not notice any improvement. Heck, I did not even consider mint in it..not there at all. Used my best flavor setup on it with no real change.

Thanks for the update! I'm really anxious for this one to come together a bit more. Out of curiosity, what PG/VG ratio did you go with on this?

not to steer this thread too far off topic, but i trust your all's opinions very much...

i took the massive leap and ordered myself a provari today. i also ordered some bridgeless atty's from smartvapes which i've yet to try. ive heard people raving about the hh357 however. anyone have much experience with those? at 20 bucks a pop its pretty steep, but many say the performance compared to most other atomizers are night and day.

I would steer you away from the HHs, but that is just me. The briedgeless attys from Empire Mods are great out of the box and require no break-in, or learning curve. They are very reasonably priced and they don't spit back at you. :facepalm:

I have an HH, but I won't be buying another one. I'd prefer to get 4 really good attys for the same price as one of the HHs. Some people love them, but they require a slightly different approach and I do not beleive they are 4x better YMMV.

p.s. With shipping, and if you get anything nonstandard with them, they can cost closer to $30. :blink:

Good grief, have you seen all these choices available for Pralines and Cream?

Hazelnuts and Almonds
Hazelnuts
Almonds and Pecans
Just Pecans
Just Almonds
Just Hazelnuts

Halp! Who's tried what?

:) I have the Pralines and Cream, Pecans only. (Hell's bells, if it ain't pecan, it ain't a praline! :laugh:)

I hate dessert vapes. I hate nut vapes. But . . .

I really, really enjoy Ahlusion's Pralines & Cream (Pecans only)! :drool:

I got mine with pecans only for my cajun, wife. She thought it was too strong. I liked it. Took some to work to share. The person I shared it with thought it was too strong but loved the juvenile House Blend I took in with it. I thought the juvenile House Blend was too rich for me.Go figure. I have come to love the mature House Blend and my like for Pralines and cream is about the same. Different strokes for different folks.

re-post: I sold two large paintings! :banana:

Congratulations sir! How much of that will be spent in Swartz Creek?

Okay, I love the blue glass bottles. Should say loved until a problem recently revealed itself. That race to bottom between House Blend, Smooth Crim and Sleighride has been won by Sleighride. Only I didn't see it coming. I am now on severe rationing. Can't believe I have been posting some open warnings here when I should have been ordering myself.
Guess its time to step up to the 60's. Anyone ordered a 60ml bottle yet? Steep time double?:facepalm::mad::(

I got a 60. I decant 10mL at a time into my empty squeeze bottle, as that's more convenient for me anyway. You could decant half into your 30, if you don't have a lil squeezie free.

I went with pecans and almonds in my Pralines n Cream. ^.^

Hi all...it seems like a lot of folks have tried Car-Mal Mambo....has anyone tried it just after 48hrs of cap off steep time, and nothing beyond that? Wondering if I might be able to cheat a bit and give that one a try.... :)

I've tried Car-Mal Mambo after 48 hours - needed to put it back and steep much longer - Wlad and Alley recommended that I do just that and not give up on it - they really like that one! So mine has been steeping for quite a while now but I've not yet tried it again - may do so tonight.

Pecan pralines are they only variation I've actually eaten, so that would seem the natural choice. But I'm kinda drawn to those hazelnuts, cos I love me some hazelnuts. And because I love to complicate things. :p

I'm wondering the difference between "Hazelnuts" and "Just Hazelnuts."

I have that with hazelnut and almonds - I like it - but may ditch the almonds next time.
