I hope I don't start a lynch-mob with this one, but I have been told all tastes are subjective. i've ordered 10 samples, recieved 2 bonus samples, all at 11mg nic and 90+ VG. I'm about halfway through and I really don't see what the fuss is about. CBT and WR were OK, OC tastes like generic brand orange soda to me and LLC is Lemon Pledge. That's right, furniture polish. THE REASON i'm even posting this is- STEEPING ! Even I noticed a huge improvement by letting AiV steep a full day caps off, followed by one full week caps on. Before steeping they all tasted grassy to me. Lawn Clipping grassy. Dripping, bottom-feeding and wicking, nothing worked until I allowed these juices to steep. Now, if you enjoy AiV please continue to support this vendor, they do seem like wonderful people and thier Customer Service is great. I will return to other vendors and continue my search. Just remember- AiV DOES improve with a good steeping.
Might I finish with, I think this thread is entitled 'My Experience So Far...' and not "FanBoy / FanGirl Club."

No lynch mob everyones taste is different. I would love to know who your favorite vendors are so I can give them a shot. I have semi-finicky tastes myself.

Agreed, everyones taste is different. That's why samples are lovely things for sure. I have not yet found an AIV juice that I don't like. They suit me. My husband doesn't agree (which i'm cool with cus I don't have to share) but he has juices he swears by that make me wanna vomit. We're all different and that's ok.

I just checked back to see if there are any States I should Avoid, only to find no Lynch Mob waiting ! Cool! HHV is currently my Favorite, although I always keep looking. I've also enjoyed RAWR, AltCig, Mrs T's and COV. Please don't get me wrong, AiV ia a quality Vendor with very good Customer Service. Just thier juices didn't do much for me. My previous posting was to emphasize Steeping of Aiv juices, as even I noticed the improvement after a good Steeping. If you enjoy AiV please continue to do so, I would just recommend steeping her juices.

agreed...! However, I don't think ALL of them require steeping. B&w cookie, zombie apocalypse, and a quiet morning...well I thoroughly enjoyed all threw of those right out of the mail.

White rabbit, lemon loves cake, twas brillig, and orange dreamsicle DEFINITELY improve with steeping,...oh, ad crunkberry to that also

The rest, I.m not really sure about because I finished them before they had a chance to steep.

Oh..and I enjoy juices from other vendors as well...mainly hhv, and highbrow, but for me aiv is in a class of their own. So yeah, taste is subjective.

You can't go wrong with HHV no lack of flavor on any of their juices. I love blade runner and shadowfax.

In my quest to find my all day vape (still haven't found it yet... still get bored of everything very quickly), I've been trying a new vendor with each order. I've tried about a dozen so far and while I find juices I like from every vendor, I haven't found that one juice or vendor that really made me feel like I had to reorder from them.

Well... actually, I've bought from ECBlends a few times since their prices are low and I liked a few of their juices, but AIV is one of the few places I'll reorder from. Let me put it this way. After I tried AIV for the first time (ordered 2 sampler packs), I knew I really liked their flavors, but I still wanted to try other vendors so I "don't miss out" in case there's something better.

However, the entire time when I was trying juices from other vendors, I kept thinking about how great their Lemon Loves Cake is and I compared every lemon cake juice I got to theirs. If I can remember correctly (and its been a long time since I've tried their juices), Lemon Loves Cake is probably my all day vape and it's just waiting for me to come back to it. I keep wondering to myself "Why haven't I ordered a big bottle of it when it's all I think about when I try other juices?"

Yeah.. I'm dumb. I should have known a long time ago. LLC is the one for me. :wub:

Lol, I know what you mean about trying other vendors...i still do too, but it's not often I find something that makes me fall in love as deeply as a quiet morning and bwcookie. They are out there, just rare. I have to say though, I feel quite satisfied with my fave juices for now...both aiv, as well as hhv, and highbrow...and feel that I can finally stop sampling and start saving some.money! At least for now anyway!

There's a reason I haven't tried any other vendors recently. I'm not against it at all! My first go around with vaping was problematic and mostly a failure. I haven't really hit the comfort spot where I think 'Yeah, i'm a vaper now, not a smoker at all.' I do very well with AIV and my current setup, very rarely have that urge now. I'm afraid to branch out till i'm totally secure. Does that make sense? I want to totally succeed this time!

As long as I have lotsa juice from any vendor I seem to do better with my smoking. If I start to run low I start smoking again. This is my third run at this, also by doing the reviews I'm doing keeps me tasting juice and searching for those I want to review. This vendor is definitely one of my favs plus the customer service and the care taken for each order makes it easier for me to keep coming back to them.

Just place ordered for a sample pack, I hope I like her juices. I was gonna order 2nd sample pack but can't find it any more. I think they changed two 1 sample pack and a little bit of everything which include all 15 flavors instead. I also just received my first order from Copper Creek 5 of 15 ml bottles, so far I only like one. I think I'll be out 30 some bucks with them.

Orange cream is one of my all days. I love it. I thought white rabbit was a little too weird. The others are good after dinners, but I usually just want my standard 555 with with a hot cup of coffee after dinner. Going there now for a big bottle of orange during the sale. And seriously- have to mention the presentation- I am a sucker for good packaging! :)

Zombie Appacolypse (cant spell), is Cupcake city with a flavor boost from what I have been told and is awsome. I tried this at my local vape shop and he did not have any to sell. Loved the stuff. I am glad she decided to put it into production! Great vendor, great juices.. not all of them are to my taste but I will be vaping these juices for a long time.
