I'm waiting for mine. Got a confirmation on Monday. Still says Electronic info received. Does anyone know where they are based out of? So I can just guestimate how long it'll take to get!

Good: WOOHOO! My AiV order is now "out for delivery" by USPS, so I should see it when I get home.

Bad: I'm out of fresh cartos >_< I have some that I cleaned a few days ago, however even cleaning there is always a residual taste in there.

Oh well. A few days steeping won't hurt, but I'm so into trying these out.

Zombie Apocalypse
Twas Brillig
Cherry Blossom Tea

Sampler:
sample5: A Quiet Morning (3ml)
sample4: Mystic Mandalime (3ml)
sample3: Sweet Tease (3ml)
sample2: White Rabbit (3ml)
sample1: Afternoon Tea (3ml)

I'm quite curious to put this vendor to the test, considering the amount of praise and the interesting packaging.

Meh, for the all the hype, I'm not impressed. I loooove their packaging up oneside and down the other, but their juices are so bland I can hardly taste anything. I guess some people use 'subtle' instead of 'bland.' But I like flavor that POPS! Just a me-thing, though. Couple this with the three week wait and I'll pass. /shrugs

I can understand your points... just speaking for myself, AIV is enjoyed best when in a relaxed environment, and the subtleties are more clear. I also use a variable pv, so I can adjust the the flavor a little more. When in a busy environment, a bolder, more clear and simple flavor usually does the trick better.

Another thing I've noticed about AIV, there seems to be a flavor or two for many tastes. Almost no-one, imo, would like most or all flavors they have.

...but I am a little odd on this too. There are some occasions where I will brew up some chai tea just because it will compliment what flavor I am vaping at the time.

Just got my box. I would call Zombie Apocalypse not entirely subtle... But it's certainly not in your face.

That's the only one I got to try so far, as I am out of fresh cartos, and cleaned ones never seem to work entirely all that well. On the plus side, they passed the "Llama" test :)

I would decidedly say this stuff needs steeping. The Brillig has a nice, subtle taste, but like the MBV fruit flavors I got a while back, there is an odd taste to it I can't put my finger on. Next go around, I'm also going to get an extra shot of flavor. Tasty stuff, but the advice of others here seems to be a good suggestion. Much as I would really really like to just start vaping it.

Got mine yesterday! Loved the presentation. Haven't really tried much - forgot to clean my attys. :( Will be trying them when I get home from work though!!

What method do you use to clean them? I've tried boiling but um... I think I got a bit over zealous. After they'd dried, I dripped a little juice into one to prime it, and the stuff leaked right out. Must have partially melted the innards >_>
