Have you ever been in the middle of eating something you're enjoying, only to have someone you're with say "ew i cant believe you're eating that" or "man that smells horrible"...and then all of a sudden you're not enjoying your food at all and are turned off by it?

Well, last night I was vaping some Boba Tea w/Coconut and my lovely wife has the decency to say "Dude that smells like dirty feet".

Thanks, babe. Thanks a lot.

All I can think of is the song, "Evil Woman" by ELO.

Hmmm... maybe I'll reconsider my stance on dirty feet!

I got a question, folks. Just check Ahlusion webshop, I can see only "currently closed". It is 1 PM ET... When are they ready to order? English is not my native language, hope you understand.

For what it is worth, it is impossible to tell. Your command of English is far superior to that of many native speakers. To answer your question, I believe they don't open until Wednesday or Thursday, at the earliest.

not sure if this was posted or not yesterday, but from the Ahlusion site:

Update (Nov 18): all confirmed and non-cancelled orders will be prepared this Monday and we expect to have them all shipped out by Wednesday Nov 21, the latest this Friday. Again, thank you for your patience and for all your wonderful messages of support and encouragement during this time!

so all those who didn't cancel their orders can breathe a little easier

dirty feet

"Evil Woman" by ELO.

In addition to putting that song in my head thank you very much, now you've got me wondering if there's a fetish market for such a juice.

Only flavors I have tried from Ahlusion are Desperado and Smooth Criminal back when I mistakenly thought I wanted to vape tobacco juice. Since that was a mistake on my part (my preference was a mistake, trying Ahlusion wasn't) I guess I have to come up with a few safe orders that aren't too exotic. Probably one of the Boba Teas and the Kiwi and Melonade ones.

This is one of those "all things are as they should be" for me.......I am kinda glad I didn't order from Ahlusions until this particular point in my vaping journey. I think Mr. Mann has described the process in another post, about going thru some other experiences and then finally settling in.

I know more about how my taste buds make interpretations now, having vaped for 4 months----whereas before, my juice ordering was rather serendipitous.

you might be onto something. there's a market for every fetish..as sick and twisted as they may be. Just as an aside, I was watching a video of the most recent VapeCon that happened a month or two ago. Some guys made a crab juice liquid and gave out free stuff if you could vape it without vomiting. Awesome!

I am currently sampling the Mimosa Cocktail, think it needs a few more days. How long have you all been letting this one steep?

Pbusardo won my undying respect through his review of crab juice. Not only did he get through it without vomiting, but he also managed to give it a full review including its throat-hit and vapor production!

Dude needs to try some Ahlusion though, seriously!

Interesting thoughts. I always believed I hated the taste of Cigarettes, but now I think I just thought I hated it because what I knew it was doing to me. My first vapes were all non-tobacco, and I was very happy with that, and about that. Couldn't wait to get as much distance between myself and that flavor as quickly as possible.

Mr. Mann introduced me to BGB, and I must admit that I am enjoying the flavors now that I no longer have those other concerns attributable to them. Peachy Criminal will be on my next order, I'm looking forward to it.

Mine was with pom instead of the passionfruit- I let it sit at least 10 days before vaping it ......it sits at over 2 weeks now and is yum yum yum
+++ps I think Mr. Mann said his sat for like 3 weeks before trying..........ah patience!

Mine just went back into the steeping cabinet

Tez - that's so funny you mentioned BWB RY4 a few pages back. BWB juices are actually responsible for my putting down the cigarettes...as they were the first juices I found to be satisfying enough. (I hadn't tried much before that....some random brand from a local smoke shop, my prefilled ProSmoke cartridges, etc). Casablanca and Melonbacko did it for me though. So with all of the hype around the RY4 and eJokers...I just had to get my hands on them. Unfortunately they just weren't for me....so I passed them along to a very special Mann who we all adore because I felt SO guilty sitting on them, those juices were like gold for a while! Its funny how much everything has since evolved. I don't even vape tobacco's at all anymore....but it seems like a lot has still changed even for those that do.

The PBusardo crab juice review is hysterical!! I'd love to see him review some of the Ahlusion juices. I had actually reached out to him about it a month or 2 ago....he did say he's heard great things, but has a pretty lengthy review queue, so not sure if and when he'd be able to get to them.

Yes...I have the original with Passion Fruit, and stronger champagne option. I'd say it was around the 3 week mark that it was noticeably different and really enjoyable

Oh boy. Just got back from the post office with my order an hour ago. They all smell amazing!

Best of all, Wlad and Alley gave me permission to consume the tobacco flavors without steeping.

So of course I gave my vivi nova head a soak in vodka and then boiled it, then gave it a dry burn, then filled up the tank with BGB. Holy crap, where has this been all my life? The flavor is a super authentic and complex burley tobacco. It reminds me very much of the Peter Stokkebye's Amsterdam Shag I used to smoke when I was big into rollies, but with a more pipe-like undertone.

I also filled up a DCT with Devil Dog! but the flavor is still transitioning from the last fill (0 nic french vanilla) so I can't really comment too much about that one yet. Seems a bit more spicy (lots of green peppercorn) than the BGB but that's all I can say about it at this point.

How long would it be ideal to let the other two juices steep for? The kiwi already smells amazing and the juices were in the mail for about a week.

What a coincidence! Although I don't really foresee ordering from them again, I do owe BWB the same debt of gratitude for getting me off analogs. I had actually vaped on and off for about 3 years, but their juices finally got me to quit. Basically, BWB got me off cigarettes, but Ahlusion and one or two other companies (especially Ahlusion though) keeps me off cigarettes. They were an important step along the way, and for a while there, they were the best thing going.

Oh man, what's PBusardo waiting for?! What amazing juice could possibly keep Ahlusion from being at the front of the queue?! I typically don't share his taste in juice (but I'll take his word for it with Crab Juice ), but while most companies have a "signature" that you'll either like or not, I think that Ahlusion has several "signatures," and there's probably a little something on the menu for everyone. And if not, a juice could be modified to one's own liking within reason. What other company could boast that?

Yeah, BGB and DD are really in a class of their own! I'm guessing the "green peppercorn" you're tasting in DD is the Latakia in the blend, which seems to be a controversial ingredient. Personally, I love it! From my understanding, unlike all of their other juices, they make the aromatic tobaccos in batches, so by the time you get them, they're ready to vape.

As for the others, I'd give them the obligatory 2-day cap-off steep (with lots of shaking when the caps are on, of course!), and what I do is have a couple of drops at first just because I like to see how a juice changes, then I try it again after 1 week, and then by 2 weeks, 3 at the latest, they're pretty much all somewhere on a scale between vapeable and mind-blowingly amazing!

 

[newbie2ec]

Shhhhh- I love that A+ is super busy right now for their sake- not sure I want the masses descending upon them.... (I know totally selfish)
Hehehe - Im kind of joking......kind of ?!?

Yes- as mentioned - even though they have been in the mail for a week - they dont start the steeping process without the 2 day cap off So I would let them air and then sit for another 5-7 days or so......

 

[shadco]

Life is good

Found 8ml's of peachy affair in the back of the steep cabinet.

Now I can weather the A+ delay without resorting to bwb.
