Finally got my order in this morning...FINALLY! Here's what I got:

Devil Dog
Blue Grass Burley
Smooth Criminal

My order is already placed, but I've heard in this thread and on their "new to Ahlusion" tab to tell them about my setup. Should I go ahead and send them an e-mail with the details even though I've placed my order? Looking forward to trying this stuff that everyone is obviously so excited about (been trying to place an order for days).

You'll be fine without doing it...

Thanks, but by the time we could do it, I will probably already have it -- not steeped though ;). I am selling one of my houses tomorrow and taking my cats to a new home. Man, it feels good to shed some baggage, but I will miss the Boston Edison District crash pad!
I BET! I just KNOW a renaissance is truly coming for the city, and we'll cry some day at what could have been had for what prices in "the good old days". Areas like the BED are SO awesome... I truly love that city.

Edit: Damn it Mann. I wish I wasn't leaving town, just so I could be the one to introduce you to this Grape Vine. I'm sitting here vaping this stuff, and I STILL can't believe how incredibly they have nailed this magnificent fruit.

DARN IT! I missed it. I was giving a newbie sound advice. Hmm.... Something about nailing a fruit? Or the BED being awesome? Help me, Mann. I love how you post stuff and then change your mind. Sometimes I catch it, unfortunately, sometimes I don't. OK, back to Excel...

Did anyone notice that Desperado got the boot? It's no longer on the menu. I got a 10ml in my order yesterday... Wonder if I'll still get it.. ?

No but I did see MANGO COLADA which for some reason I had never noticed. It'll go great with my Sasparilla and Grapevine

and MILK CHOCOLATE TOFFEE?

There's my sample request.

You'd think I'd have this all memorized by now.

One pet peeve of mine is when vendors proudly advertise their cherry e-liquids with the tag line "Doesn't taste like cough drops!". First off, this seems like damning with faint praise. Second, I inevitably get sucked in and... it always tastes like cough drops.

MI Cherry Tea does not taste like cough drops. It tastes like... sweet cherries. And tea. Go figure.

This is so so so delicate and lovely. Despite the cherries, it isn't all that fruity. It exhibits a refined airiness which is in direct contrast to most fruit liquids which are like a fruit syrup. It is barely, marginally sweet. I keep chasing an ineluctable hint of something or other that will keep me guessing, until sometime deep in the middle of the night when I will bolt upright out of a deep sleep and say "That's it!".

I can only imagine that it will get better in the weeks to come.

Vapor, at 30% VG, is OUTRAGEOUS.

Up next: Car-mal Mambo.

Hey Scarf-ace, aren't you the unofficial Ambassador from Oz ? I was just on the newcomer page, saying 'Wecome' and telling people how good ECF is, when I came across a 'Khemist' from Sydney. Maybe you could help him with Vaping from down under ?

Neither official nor unofficial :) but I did go over and say hi and give a few recommendations. Always happy to meet local vapers, especially since the Aussievapers forum is not to my taste :blink:

Sounds GREAT Scarf. Another to add to the list. Not sure if you know, but Michigan is the cherry capital, specifically the Traverse City area, of the world. Miles of cherry trees, far as the eye can see. In the spring, the cherry blossoms are breathtaking. For a native son, I'm sure he is taking great pains to make it right.

On another note, has anyone tried Blue Fairy? I loathe black licorice. I'm going to wait until most have had a chance to try Grape Vine and Sasparilla before I talk about this juice, there is only so much time and money. But I would think this is a flavor that needs a DEEEEEEP sleep, and if the initial impression is anything to gauge it by? Well, I'll wait. And I'm not all Ahlusion Fan Boi. I'm very lukewarm right now on Chocolate Cream and Dutch Chocolate Mint, but they're brand new and the chocolates usually need time. I'm also not big on first impressions of BVC and Maple Dream. But I know others are, and I AM a maple freak. Maple candy is a seasonal Must Have favorite of mine. I'll give them time, but for the latest fresh shipment which includes the above mentioned plus Peachy Criminal, the Blue Fairy is currently the standout. Yes, there is an anise or black licorice note, but much, MUCH more. More in fact, to come.

Glad you found something that satisfies in your new shipment! Have you tried the Devil Dog and Blue Grass Burley yet? Are YOU "man" enough for the DD? I sure as hell am not. But the BGB is another critter. When I'm craving a REAL tobacco, BGB makes me wonder what I ever saw in a mere cigarette.

She is definitely OUR "Ex-Pat in Australia" ambassador. And then a great deal some more.

Yep - one of the first I ordered. I need some time to find the words though - we'll definitely chat later.

Mo, I'm sure that a native would not be so bold as to call it MI CHERRY TEA without making sure it was darn good! As I said, it is more delicate than I usually tend to vape in fruits. For instance I am just in the middle of a tank of Plume Room's Honey Fig Tobacco, which is really more like Honey FIG tobacco. It is fruity as all get out and I adore it for that. But MCT is a very different critter.

Blue Fairy is not on my list. Hate anise, hate absinth, hate licorice, hate notes thereof polluting any of my e-liquids. (Oddly, I do occasionally get urges to eat plain licorice, in which case one small bag of Darrell Lea will do me until the craving hits again in six months.)

I am a maple freak too. I have been so disappointed in all the pancake/waffle/French toast liquids out there which claim to be mapley but are just one-dimensionally sugary. The Maple River Tree Blend I got smells somewhat intriguingly of popcorn (?!?).

And yes, I am puffing on BGB and DD as I type this. I will have detailed impressions soon, but for now, all I shall say is WOOF.:lol:

Keep an open mind. I've found many a flavors, specifically at Ahlusion, that I don't care for to EAT, but vaping is another story. This definitely has a certain je ne sais quoi. I was going to park Excel for the night to get some Zeds, but this has inspired me to knock out a couple more RFQ's.
