Could we please just 'at ease' with all this gushing praise for the CPBT. Mine has only been steeping for two days and to make things worse, I'm at work so I can't even grab a brief smell to ease the pain. If you mates don't cease and desist, then I can't be held responsible. I may just "pull a Mo"

and blow.

j/k guys. I am curious though Mr. Mann, what nic strength and what pg/vg ratio you are vaping it..?

cheers

I seem to recall one or two others posting about peppery qualities many moons ago. I've never experienced it myself, but if more than one person has experienced it, I'm thinking it's not a fluke. I would possibly attribute it to the various and diverse ways that we are all wired to experience taste. For instance, from my understanding, cilantro (one of my favorite herbs) tastes like soap to some people. Don't hesitate to email Wlad, because he knows more about how this stuff works than all of us.

Good cal, Tez!

p.s. Extra cilantro, please. :thumb:

Ask Mo, but I think it is 50/50 24 mg. If it is 50/50, then 70/30 pg/vg must reeeaaly hit!!

Sort of like how CPBT tasted like celery to me. What the heck? I've got some CPBT jealousy going on hearing everyone gush about it.

I have a serious BVC problem: I've only had my little 10mls 48 hrs and it's already half gone. :cry:

Good Evening A+ ers.
New problem. I cracked open the Melon Berry Frost with breeze. I have been smelling it daily for almost a week Couldn't wait anymore.

Well it is just plain fanstatic. In fact I am now re-thinking this melon avoidance thing I had going on.
This stuff tastes great. Light, clean and fresh.

Yep! I'm finding that with vaping, that the removal of texture makes things appetizing that wouldn't normally be as appetizing to me. Like the coconut thing. I like melon ok, just ok, but take away the slimeyness of it, and just give me the flavor?! IN! I like that about the Melon Berry Frost! Very clean melon. Even the bride likes this one. Once a day like clockwork, "Honey, Do you have any more of that melon one?!" Ay yiy yiy.

I got Desperado open on my screen right now. I am just imagining . . .

I just about reached my first, and surely not last, full 24 hrs of vaping NOTHING but CPBT. Yep, it's that kinda vape. Does this one hit majorly to anyone else? Sheesh! Two hits of this and I am satiated for a quite awhile. I like not having to chase the taste and or feeling. That wasn't the kind of smoker I was and I don't like vaping that way. When I want the sensation, experience or attack of flavor, I don't like having to try and try -- I want it to happen on call!

After vaping that lovely BGB you gifted me, I KNEW CPBT was going to be RIGHT up your alley. I think this is probably the best juice to convince a die hard tobacco fan that there are other choices. I'm learning to love this tea, I've been vaping it for most'a the day myself, probably TOO long.

Edit: Mr. Mann, Orange Nocturne and CPBT both saw 3ml of VG added to calm them down a little to a 30ml bottle. So what you have is closer to 21.5mg and 55vg/45pg. Now you can imagine what the unadulterated juice was like. I left the Blueberry Colada and Tiramisu alone, they were juuuuust right.

Oh, and Tez... That thing you mentioned earlier. That was me....



I get a little pepper in every Ahlusion juice I taste. I think it's the nic. I said it quite a few pages back.
What'd you guys THINK I was going to tell him about?

Seriously though, I'm guessing that celery you were tasting is the fresh and slightly tart pear coming through. You might have to give this one another shot -- it actually took me a while to warm up to it.

Exactly! Maybe there is some type of symbiosis with leaves or something, but either which way, this juice works (coming from such a huge tobacco vaper)! I will keep this one going tomorrow for luck! ;)

Wow! I remember you saying that, but after hitting it, I couldn't remember much. Man, this juice leaves me with that feeling like I have inhaled something of substance, you know? I don't mean standard TH here (though the TH is awesome), I mean after vaping it for a couple pulls, it really leaves you feeling a bit worked over. I like that!

Mine finishes its week of steeping tomorrow...I have high hopes for it.

I have thought about it, Tez. I bet he could do it, and I bet I would vape it!

That does it...I'm going to drip mine. NOW.

For me, celery is coconut's evil twin! But I will try it again (could have been my craptastic atty too and the five juices I had in it beforehand :D)

I get the pepperiness with every flavor, initially. It could be the nic (mine are 18mg), but with 5+ weeks of steeping it's now gone. Did the nic go? It is a puzzlement. Virtually all the flavors are vapable now, except the Boba Tea with caramel. The caramel is WAY overpowering still. Seems like it's getting stronger with time. Such a puzzlement.

Now that you mention it, it IS something that I don't get so much after some time in bottle. It is quite a puzzle indeed. I mentioned it in an email to Wlad, and I was hoping he was going to explain it, but he didn't comment on it at all. I let it go, it wasn't worthwhile to cross swords over.

Its so funny that you guys mention the tobacco tie into the CPBT. I swear as I was going through my first 10ml bottle of CPBT, I wanted to say something about how I felt it could be THE juice for either tobacco vapers to branch out to other flavors...and I even had some thoughts about it being a good juice for people just coming off actual cigarettes....I need to wait until I crack into my new bottle to bring some of those specific thoughts back.

THe problem was, I found myself unable to put it into words, or give a good explanation as to why. Very interesting nonetheless...and I'm glad you guys were able to articulate it...because I couldn't, but was certainly thinking it.

(we're either really on to something here, or we just spend way too much time together that our brains are starting to operate the same way) LOL

You guys were killing me with the CPBT talk, because I'm completely out. Then I remembered that I had an almost full Stardust of it, that I shoved in my vape box in frustration because the Stardust was annoying me one day.

Well the Stardust is still annoying. But the CPBT is being a sweet lady tonight. :D
