Uh oh....this Caramel Pear Black Tea might be taking a bit of Pink Label's space in my heart. This stuff has really come together and is INCREDIBLE today!
I came to really enjoy the CPBT after it had steeped for 1+ week. I didn't like it at all in the beginning, but it was really good there at the end.

In other news, my 100% VG juices from another vendor (not Ahlusion) came in. They taste completely different from my usual 50/50 blend. Pretty disappointed/almost upset about it to be honest because of the $ spent. I knew the flavor would be somewhat muted, but not to this extent. I'm getting maybe 20% of flavor I got in 50/50. Taste almost watery/watered down to me and I've not experienced that before with other VG juices :( I don't think it's a steeping issue because I regularly vape these right out of the box without a problem, but I'll see how they are in a few days just in case.

I'll vape them in order to not waste, but my issue I was talking about a few pages back turned out to be sinus problems from the rapid weather changes here as opposed to PG allergy. My 70/30 VG/PG juice from Ahlusion is no longer bothering me (the other vendor's 50/50 is still bothering me). I'm going to test a few of the Ahlusion juices that came in the mail today (YAY) and see if any of them could be vaped now. If so, I may be ordering my first 30ml bottles from Ahlusion ASAP. Just from smell test it seems like 1 or 2 of them may be okay to go ahead and try.

Update: It is not a good idea to put Melon Berry Frost in an atty right after vaping a cinnamon bun juice. Like, ever.

Obscenity is always a plus in my book!

I accidentally touched my nose with the tip of the bottle when I was sniffing. So for the rest of the afternoon, everything smelled like strawberry cake and nothing hurt.

I like the way you think!

I followed Daniele's lead and I've been vaping Caramel Pear Black Tea today. I'm tasting mostly caramel, so I'm wondering if it needs a little more time, but it is really good!

You guys will be proud to know that I have restrained myself from touching the Pink Label juice. Everything is steeping safely...for now.

Blueberry Vanilla cake....smells beautifully of fresh blueberries in a sugary syrup, with that vanilla cake just wrapping it in a blissful hug. I hope this stuff is half is good as it smells. I have found my morning coffee vape if it is.

Melon Berry Frost...smells so clean and melony (if that wasn't a word before, it is now). It's a crisp melon...very delightful to the nose. No berries detected with the sniffer yet, but this one is going to be a very lovely vape.

Sleigh Ride...a beautiful peppermint..my grandmother used to make homemade peppermint candy..and the smell of this juice just brought me back to her kitchen, sitting on a stool while she was using these "candy scissors" to cut it (think rock candy--she made them in all flavors for the holidays and they were awesome!!!) and pretending not to see me filching from the batch.

Luna Fortuna...yum..pineapple...creamy pineapple...I'm betting there is going to be a hint of coconut in this juice (which normally I would detest because I hate the taste, but love the smell)...it's kind of teasing me...but pineapple is definitely in the forefront.

Of course the Pink Label and the SVC smell just as heavenly as ever..except they are in the 30ml bottles. Did I mention I love their glass bottles? There's cute little dropper tops that came with them as well. Oh and the 10ml of Pink Label that I'm going to start vaping on tomorrow..overnight is as long as she gets on the 10ml...sorry. :)

New avi picture, Cinnamonkey? I liked the old monkey robbing the strawberry patch image, but this one looks a little more devious! I ordered my Chocolate Cream today (along with Vecchio, Boba Tea w/ Honeydew, and a sample request for House Blend).

I still have the old avi..just wanted to get ready for Halloween..I'm all about dress-up. Plus, I have to be on guard to scare everyone away from my Pink Label juice. I will probably be doing my next order on Monday...just a small order mind you. A couple more bottles of PL and hopefully some BVC will be available in 30ml if I ask nice, since it's not on the line-up yet on their site. Chocolate cream will be on that order as well..hope that it's everything we are wishing for.

My juices spent the last couple hours stuck in the mail slot, but they're here! They're all uncapped in the steeping drawer, but I dripped them first real quick-like to see where they started.
*Strawberry Shortcake: the strawberry is amazing! the cake and whip are way in the background, but it's already pretty tasty.
*Honey Blue: omg. the honey is so fresh I think I just licked a bee. the blueberry isn't there much yet, but I don't think this is going to last long in the steeping drawer.
*Zombie Repellant: the melons are going to need some time to make their appearance. steepy-steepy.
*Rick's Request: sooooo strange! this one I'm most excited about and it's probably going to need the longest steep. As of right now, it tastes exactly like rosewater. crazy sauce. how it's going to transform into rice pudding I have no idea, but I'm excited!
I already want to order more flavors.

Nice. I've been waiting to hear a 2nd opinion on the Chocolate Cream. I've been burned on so many chocolate juices that it'll take a few people praising it before I consider ordering (yes...even from Ahlusion). I want to find a good one but past tastings have me scared that the good chocolate vape is just a myth.

If you want to try it the parts are really cheap. Some places sell the wire in small quantities, just a few dollars. I got my cotton wick --- at the local craft store! 100% cotton yarn, 120 yards, for $3. For less than $10 you can give it a go. I still have not perfected my technique on wrapping the coil but I learn something new each time.

I'm betting you can do it. If you can't, let me know and I will send you a cotton vivi coil :).

The difference in flavor is quite astonishing!

Thanks! I think I might give it a try. I'm typically so bad with intricate stuff, my hands get really shaky and since I am an inpatient italian girl from NJ...the 2 don't mix well! But i have seen some youtube videos on it, and it doesn't seem too hard, probably worth trying at least!

I got Fijian Nights in 50/50 as well...looks like my order shipped, so should be here in a couple days. We shall see!

Yeah, Cinnamonkey and I will both be trying this one out and comparing notes! I think we're both operating under the working hypothesis that if anyone can do it right, it's Ahlusion. Otherwise, perhaps it can't be done...

Okay Cinnamonkey, following your lead with the scary holiday avatar to keep everyone away from my Devil Dog and Blue Grass Burley!

I love every little thing about their packaging. It's completely professional and top-notch. Opening a package from them is just such a treat.



It takes way to freakin long to get the bottles out of that bubble wrap and cap sealer.


Think of all the steep time that is lost.


;)


Fortunately I scored some namber ban apple, and rawr green peach tea at vapercon last night so I will keep my mitts off the latest arrivals from Ahulsion, and bbw long enough so they can steep a bit.

Snagged an empiremod and some sweet 901 atty's too along with some lowres cisco's for the reo I'm going to order shortly.
