Ahlusion

[Mr.Mann]

Yeah, all the talk from Mr. Mann made me give them a look. Honestly I will try them, but likely in the 30mL sizes. I can not justify that price for 10mL to myself. This is the biggest reason I haven't tried Mrs. Ts, that and the owners personality.

I have tried many juices and really feel that the price does not reflect the quality in all cases. This is why I have a hard time trying new-to-me vendors. It is because I have a very deep rooted value consciousness. I despise buying a product and later regretting it. To the point I will not even putting it in the classies, because I don't want others to have the same regret! I'm a little strange in that regard.

However, if you guys say Ahlusions is worth it, I will certainly give them a shot!

What kind of flavors are you interested in? Before you take the plunge on 30s, talk to us and even more importantly, talk to Wlad.

Here is another way to look at it though. If you buy 3 10ml bottles for $27, then you get one 10 mil for free (sample of your choice). That makes the cost $6.75 for 10 mil.

Good point, NK.

ckone I used to be a big fan of that...other vendor...you mentioned and can say with confidence that you are better off staying away.

Ahlusion is a great company with great CS...not to mention amazing liquids! Something for everyone over there and I think worth the price to at least try.

 

[Tezcatlipoca]

I definitely feel you on that ckone, and I've got similar values. A few things turned me around on that issue. I remembered how much I used to spend on cigarettes and let's face it, they taste terrible. And if the price of something like Pink Spot was the industry standard, most of us would probably pay it without hesitation because we're all addicted and bottles of juice are still cheaper than smoking. I've paid for bottles of juice that were half the cost of Ahlusion or less, and in many instances I ended up vaping a few puffs and deciding it wasn't for me, so ultimately I've decided it's more cost-effective to pay more for juice I know I will vape. Now that said, I'd advise against starting out with 30 ml's just in case it's not for you, but that's entirely your business.

You could always offer up any unwanted Ahlusion juice for trade here too.

 

[K*Rose]

I have wasted so much money on crappy juice, I will happily pay a little more for deliciousness!

 

[Biziou]

The shipping is pretty cheap, too. Around $2 for every order I've placed.

And if you're in the military, they will apply a permanent 15% discount to your account. I can't take advantage of that myself, but I think it's pretty cool.

 

[ckone180]

Here is a sample list of flavors I like, I will acronym the vendor so I don't offend Ahlusion....
MM-Pluid
AVE-GJ (when I can taste banana)
AiV-Orange Creamscicle
ECB-Sweet Tooth
Joogler(OOB)-Lemonade
AltS-Straw-Bana Smoothie (new version)
TopV-Rootbeer

I guess there is a pattern forming! I like fruit flavors!

List of flavors I would love for a vendor to get right...
Cherry
Chocolate (would love a choco-orange or something)
Vanilla, if vanilla bean type

Here is a list of flavors I have not liked at all...
NLV-BH(great juice quality, do not like the flavor)
Candy strawberry flavors
RY4 (used to like, now can't stand any)
Caramel flavors that taste like Cracker Jacks

I was just browsing PS site, and wow! that is silliness for shipping! This is the reason I couldn't follow through. I did get an order in JV, but because they have a discount right now.

Yeah, I definitely second Mann's suggestion to email them, ckone. Wlad is really helpful and seems to want people to become satisfied customers above all. Ahlusion's service and ethics are unprecedented.

 

[Mr.Mann]

Are they normally closed on weekends?

"We’re normally open all the time unless we’re running the chance of getting behind. We’re just now catching up from this weekend and the sale, so we should be back up and running later tomorrow or Tuesday. Also, this week is moving week so we might only be running half days so we don’t get too backed up! I don’t like to keep the site running and accepting orders except for maybe on special sales etc because I don’t want folks to have to wait longer!

Our normal shipping time is 48 hours on business days (weekends not included); I’d like to keep it that way."

This is from an email Wlad just sent me.

He just sent that one to me.

Thank you!

 

[new kid]

Totally agree.

I was helping some owners of a coffee shop a few years back. They had hired a consultant when they started out. One of the things he told them was -- people believe that higher prices mean a better product. He had a point and I see it in all sorts of markets.

Sometimes higher price means it is a better product but not always. However, Ahlusions makes a better product, is better company, and they care about their customers. That is a formula for success in my book. I am sure not everyone will agree with that but I will argue the last two without hesitation.

Buy the company first, then the juice. In other words, I make sure they have a good reputation of quality and customer service before I give them my cash.

Oh, and for the record, I am not an Ahlusion's "fanboy". There are other great ones out there, but Ahlusion will stay on my list.

I haven't heard or read the word "fanboy" in awhile.

I definitely think there will be something for you! Ahlusion doesn't have any straight vanilla flavored juices, but I will let you know how Strawberry Vanilla Cake is very soon.

Maybe you could try Orange Nocturne: "Enjoy an authentic, rich Cocoa flavor with Caramelized Orange flavors ..."

 

[Tezcatlipoca]

Dear lord... am I becoming one? Must.... find.... flaws.... with.... Ahlusion!

My biggest issue is that state of paralysis when it is decision time.

~~Pink Label Juice~~
24mg-50/50pg/vg

Where's the strawberry???

This is a juice like I have never tasted before. It's complex. Almost too complex for me to wrap my head around. Don't get me wrong..it's good. It's very good. It's like a watermelon and cherry now'n'later got hot n heavy and Pink Label Juice was their love child. I kid you NOT! I detect the faintest sprig of mint on the exhale. Pleasant..a nice faint coolness like a sweet lingering kiss from your loved one after they just brushed their teeth. Also..on the inhale..something...I can't place it.. floral perhaps..just barely there. Not perfumey or anything like that at all..but an undernote on the fruit that I can't place.

Overall, I like this juice alot. It's complex. It's fruity. It's a little bit candy to me. It's a hint of mint. It's full of flavor but light and pleasant. Not quite as heavy on the TH as I like, but more of a soothing type comfort vape that I would definitely consider when my tastebuds are just tired of the same old same old. Very good on the vapor production.

Needs more strawberry.

well ... it was so difficult to decide but i came up with 3 choices --- apple house lend, mystic spice tea, and smokin' cherry(brings back fond memories) --- now to wait til they open

p.s. you really really did not want to see my original list

 

[tstan23]

This is an update from my last post. I just tried the Serious Cider from the order I received this past Wednesday. Let me start off by saying that this juice is very, very clean. It is definitely an apple cider flavor, but I am not getting the "spice" that it is supposed to have (cinnamon). It is also just a tad light on flavor. The flavor is there, and it is very nice but its on the lighter side. I also tried the peppermint mocha. It has a good peppermint kick and I can taste the chocolate underneath, but again I feel like a flavor is missing with this one (the coffee). Not trying to bash, as I will definitely order from Ahlusion again because their flavors are all clean and very tasty. Maybe they just need a few more days to steep? Will probably update this again in a couple days with a description of all four flavors I got. Happy vaping everyone!

Don't hold me to this, but Smokin' Cherries might not be available yet, so I'd be prepared to choose a back-up. Also, are those 10 mL bottles you're ordering? If so (the order will be more than $20), in the comments box you can ask for a free 10 mL sample of your choosing (with the exception of the aromatic tobaccos)!

You did the cap off for 48 hrs? What delivery system are you using? Pg/vg ratio?

Unfortunately, there are so many different variables that it kinda has to be just right for your set-up and juice to work in tandem. Since I use 306,901, and 510 attys, any ratio will work for me, but for carto, CEs and other delivery devices, a little talk with the man ahead of time can get that worked out. This is not to say that your flavors weren't light (for you), just some words for anyone else that may be reading this.

Nice!!! I like what you've done there, Mr.Mann! Darn this one-like-per-post limit!
