You can sit in my corner, gerbil. (I think I have an old hamster wheel around somewhere...)
I know its horrible of me, but bandersnatch is the only alice flavor i've tried so far (and i've tried a lot of them now) that i dislike. However, I have been told that steeping it for a month improves it greatly. (And i somewhat still believe that its not bandersnatch in my bandersnatch sample... because i taste neither bananas or butterscotch. in fact, what i do taste is more like..pure alcohol. and thats after almost a month of steeping. I may have to get my hands on another sample of it to make sure.) And, to be fair, with everyones taste buds being so variable... I'd say the simple fact that AiV's other flavors are all rated at the very top of my topest list, they're allowed one that *I* personally dislike.
Please do try the Zombie again. My great love for AiV comes much from Zombie itself... it is my alldayeveryday vape, and I'm a flavor hopper if ever there was one. (i'm going to hafta start pif-ing bottles out, they're all sitting there sad and neglected in the non-alice corner of the cabinet)
Did you take the lid and caps off the bandersnatch for a few days? It's my experience banana and butterscotch flavors often have a lot of esters and alcohols in them.
