Okay, I admit it ... I'm picky when it comes to my 555. LOVE that nutty flavor that a good 555 should have so I'm wondering ... for anyone that has tried them in the new prem carts ... what are your thoughts? The same flavor? Better? Different? I LOVE my RY4 in the prems and am thinking of getting some 555s now as well but would hate to lose that wonderful flavor the regulars have. Thanks all!

I agree with Born. I don't see too much of a difference in the two. That isn't to say that I want them to change it though! I LOVE my 555 taste and don't want it to change.

That said though, I'm not impressed with the hard caps that are on the premium 555 (those are supposed to be changed out with soft caps at some point). The main issue I have is that I have no warning that they are about to burn, and I have had at least two that got the "glue" that is holding the caps in on the wick, and it didn't taste very good.

555 is my favorite and I will still keep buying them, but I can not wait until they come with the soft caps :)

I have to agree with allfun here.. the prem. seemed very dry to me and ashy. That being said I never really used the regular cartos. I've been using the 555 med juice the whole way. I think it has a smooth sweet flav which is very different from the premium 555's dry more harsh flav. Depends on how you like it I suppose. The few reg cartos I did have seemed dry to me also so......not sure if my opinion is one you should really use;)
Unless you're comparing juice to cartos then... I'm the girl for you :rolleyes:

Got my order today and got a Tobacco Shop Sampler Carts.

OMFG!

What the hell? This is probably the best tasting flavor I have ever had. The nutty taste is dead on, and I abso-freakin-lutely love it!!! I'm staring at my shopping cart looking at some blank premium carts and a 30ml bottle of 555 juice.

If I order those, I should be able to recreate this deliciousness, correct? If not, who do I have to sacrifice?

It seems to me that if it doesn't taste burnt its not. I may be wrong but I really believe that.

i'm wondering if the lack of sweetness some are noticing has to do with the hotter temp of the premium more than a change in flavor? would be interesting if someone has the "old" 555 juice and a blank prem cart to try. just a thought. i did get a sample of the 555 prem and rather liked it.

Part of me says: "Yes, the flavor tastes different because of the hotter temp of the Premium" as my cartos taste different depending on whether I have it on my battery, PT or Prodigy @ 5v

BUT then I recall maxx saying that he didn't like the new Premium Kants but he LOVED putting the old Kant juice into a blank Premium.

Which leaves me with thinking :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

You're welcome in advance - I know this reply was very helpful :D:rolleyes:

Damn. I can't stop vaping this flavor, so I'll have to order some stat! Been staring at my shopping cart still (since no one's given me a definite "yes" :p), so I'll go ahead and order it. As long as it's smililar, I think I can live with it. I really don't want to run out either way.

The RY4 is good too. It's like 555 as far as tobacco goes, but it has the aftertaste of cotton candy or something. Really light, but flavorful.
