I think MBV isn't meant to be some godsend company. I'd say HHV and fuZion have juices drastically better. But those are also more expensive. MBV is dirt cheap and doesn't taste like bad DeKang (not to be confused wit the rare good DeKang flavor).

Wait, there's a good DeKang flavor?

I actually tried to vape one last night 'cookies and cream' .. its still terrible - been steeping for over 30 days too which I was hoping would help it taste better..

This proves taste are subjective. I got Cookies and Cream as a freebee and like it so much I reordered it. In fact I'm vaping it as I type.

Of course taste preference is subjective. Taste is supposed to alert humans to avoid eating unpleasant things as they may be poisonous.

I like many of MBV juices, but I will admit that some of their juice are better DEPENDING on your mod & topper. I just got a new juice called Lightspeed. I just got it from the mailbox and without steeping I wasn't expecting much.

Guess what! Lightspeed in a Boge carto tank - MUTED, in a Protank - MUTED, with a SVD, TVS, Sentinel, Silver Bullet - BURNED!

I put this citrus juice in a CE4 with a Natural and OMG! DELICIOUS!!!! Thought, okay, let's try this little eGo tube with a 18350 - OMG! Finally a juice with FLAVOR with an eGo! I am good to go with this little sneaky, stealth tube!

So, not only do a person's personal taste and preference matter with a juice, but so does the mod and the topper!

Once I get a shipment in, I've got a 3.5ml topper that can handle this tank cracking juice and I'm going to vape the heck out of it and order more LOL

Instead of YMMV, it should be your TASTES, MODS, and TOPPERS may vary!

Butterscotch, Peanut Butter, Hawk Sauce, Udderly Nuts, Blue Moo, Sticky Bun are amazing.
At least a dozen more are excellent. About 90% of the 75+ flavors I've tried from them are at least very good.
I don't like Pooh, Ocean Breeze or Twilight.
I didn't like Pie Crust at first but after a couple of months it's a pleasant vape on it's own.
Their fruit and bakery flavors are excellent.

Perfumey this and cough syrup that. I read people trash talking them about "I just got it and it's gross"
Steeping required. It says so on their website.
Pie Crust, Vanilla Cup Cake and a few others tasted nasty to me at first and took months to develop.
Do people really just order from the pictures without reading anything on their site about fresh juice needs steeping?
WTPH?

read about your perfume here - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...s-aka-general-diy-guide-flavoring-ratios.html

Overflavoring tastes perfumey.
Flavoring is carried in alcohol. Aerate for a day or two and steep for a week or two or three or four.
Tobacco flavors need longer. Over a month sometimes.
The more flavoring the more aeration it needs to evaporate the alcohol
The more flavoring the longer it'll take for the ingredients to reach an entropic state (quote from Hoosier's blog)
Higher VG mix mutes flavor. Overflavoring mutes flavor.
Give it time and let it become what it's intended to be.
Find the ratio that works best for you and the correct flavor strength for that ratio.

18mg 80/20 +1 for about 4 months, now 18mg 65/35 +2
My DIY approximating MBV +1 or +2 is 12.5% in 70/30

I know everybody's tastes are different.
I made juice for someone for a couple of months.
He likes 36mg 80/20 +3 or 14.5% and vapes over 50ml/week.
Tasted like housefire to me and I couldn't even distinguish between flavors at that level.

Different strokes. :2c:

Bummer. What flavors in what nic, ratio and extra shots?

Hawk Sauce, Fruit Stripe and Watermelon. 70/30, 24mg with 1 flavor shot. The Hawk Sauce was the worst. Reminded me of how my mouth tasted the last time i vomited(sorry, just my opinion). Fruit Stripe tasted extremely watered down with just a hint of flavor, and the Watermelon had hardly any flavor, and what flavor i did/do get is perfumey.

For the price, speed and customer service, I don't think you can beat MBV. Yes, you can spend more money from the high priced vendors on juice and maybe find a better quality/tasting juice. Just depends on what your willing to spend. ( U get what U pay for)

Just shows that taste really IS subjective. I really like MBV. Now that's not to say I don't like other vendors too. I repeatedly purchase from Ahlusion as well. It's funny people always mention fuzion though. I personally don't care for their juice. Same with GLV. Vapetrik. Yaeliq. and a few others. Different strokes for different folks.

Yes, it really is. GLV, to me, is sensational. As is Fuzion and HHV. The beauty of it is that there are so many vendors that everyone should be able to find their fix at some point.

exactly. just because I don't care for them, doesn't' mean they aren't good to others. but then again, we all seek something different in our juice ;)
