So I ordered the sampler that has all the flavors in it and it arrived last Tuesday. So, about a week it's been steeping. I took a couple out tonight expecting greatness and one tastes like what I imagine pee would taste like and the other, well, pooh. Sorry, can't find any better explanations! Do I need to steep longer? I've read a million reviews and I just am in shock right now that they were so underwhelming. Anyone have thoughts?

Taste is very subjective... reviews are nice for jooze but i have definitely run into similar situations in the past!
which two did you try? I ask because I ordered last week from about 4 or 5 vendors and got most by Sat. still waiting on my last choice and keep telling myself it will be worth it..man if it turns out to taste like pee lol i won't be happy..

I literally bought the one that has 16 samplers in it. And I bought a bottle of zombie apocalypse. I tried the zombie which I think might end up being ok after steeping longer but still wasn't near as flavorful as it sounded. I tried the "quiet morning" which is suppose to taste like green tea and passionfruit aka pee, tried the white rabbit, and 15 foot falls. Nothing was as impressive as it sounded from the reviews. I bought directly from them though so I have read that they take a little longer to steep since not pre-steeped. I'm just hoping this is a fluke. I really want them to be as good as everyone says!
Been there, done that. Mine sat for a month in sadness. Then one day I decided to try them all over again - I couldn't believe how good some of them were!
So, put them away, wait a month. You may have some amazing surprises
(In fact, I'm quite sure you will!)

they aren't very strong on flavor so much, subtle, but if you steep them a long time the flavor comes out quite a bit more.
Some flavors are milder than others though. I was a bit underwhelmed with them too. Some of it is pretty good, and some never did develop much flavor even after a few months (Ginger Sea comes to mind). But don't give up hope-after a long steep you will end up enjoying some of them.
I have yet to love any of them enough to reorder a flavor though

I ordered a lot from Giant Vapes they have a strong line of juices not one was bad that i got out of 5 different bottles
well it is not made to order since they have a lot of different vendors i take it they shelve it say a week and you order it by the time they get it log it in and sell it steep time achieved by the time it gets to you which i also liked..maybe that is why they all tasted awesome..never heard of neck beards but wow i was pleasantly surprised like Ry4 and Custards last stand had a baby named Nectar by Neckbeards funny name but awesome product..check it out.
Hmm this might just be a case of "not the juice for you". A quiet morning is one of my TOP juices and I fell in love with it immediately. However, I've never tasted pee, so maybe I'd like the taste of pee too
I have a bottle of AIV Zombie Apocalypse and I find the flavor very mild. It's not BAD but after vaping it for a while, I feel like the taste just gets lost. I've been mixing it with my Coconut Cream Pie juice from Vape Dudes which has been my go to for a few days.
I have learned that I can't get into subtle flavors and most fruits have a perfumey aftertaste I can't stand. I have steered away from AiV because I often hear they are subtle. Did you get black & white cookie? I DO like that one. My top vendors are Highbrow and Vapor Chef so far, still tasting a lot of others! My best tip is to get an idea of your personal taste and include it when asking for recommendations. I like strong flavor; custards, vanillas, caramels & RY4s and higher VG and find when I say that I get better suggestions.
I can tell you that the last time I ordered from AIV it was very sub-par but the time before that I was really really good. I think AIV had a problem with being consistent. Just my two cents.
Whatever you don't like you can sent to me. I will find something to do with it.

I will find something to do with it.Quiet Morning is a very different juice. I don't taste pee, but tastes more like a hot green tea with passionfruit on the exhale. In my experience, this one tastes better fresh from the mail before steeping-so this may not be the juie for you!
White Rabbit-definitely needs a whole month to steep. No joke. When I first tried it, it tasted like nothing. Like it was unflavored. Tried it a month later after it changed in color a little. Now it tastes like a coconut cake like treat. I hate coconut juices, so it's not for me, but for those that do like coconut, this is a great juice. Just needs time for flavor to develop.
15 Foot Falls is a tobacco blend, and actually has some s'mores flavoring. It tasted like a campfire to me. Some people LOVE it. It was also not the juice for me, but as with most tobacco's, it also needs to steep.
If you are looking for big flavor from AiV-I would recommend Black and White Cookie (tastes like oreos), Mystic Mandalime (a tasty citrus blend), and Pun'kin Tumble (tastes like spice cake). All 3 of these are strong in flavor and DELICIOUS without steeping in my experience.
I tried several AIV juices that fit my profile and all are were weak on flavor. They tasted and smelled like dirty socks or rotten cake to me, but I could see how you would pick up pee. Hate to say it but forget about steeping them because it won't make it go away.
