Atty: Taifun GT II
mod: SX Mini
Build: Single 26 awg 2.4 mm, 8 wraps / .9 ohms, KGD wick

Thoughts: Getting an overly sweet peach with greenish notes that seem to be the NET poking through. Syrupy sweet juice from a can of peaches is a pretty good description. Before reading that I kept thinking overly ripe peach. Newports' wattage range seemed to mirror my own experience. I'm running this juice far lower than I normally would an NT. The same build with Radio, Strawnilla, and most others is just about right at 23-25 W, but anything over about 18 W is scorching for me. That said there may be a wicking issue with this particular build so I'll give it another shot in a few days. However, scorching aside the taste is not hitting for me yet. It will be interesting to see where it goes, but if it's like switch no amount of steep is going to make it hit for me. Going to keep an open mind and see where it goes.

Steep time: FOOB
Mod: AR-15
Atty: Magma
Build: 28ga Dual Micro @ .45 Ohm wicked with organic cotton

First impressions:
I have to agree with what I've read so far. Absolutely DELICIOUS, and VERY peach-forward for now. Very real peach flavor, not candy-like, nor sickly-sweet (thankfully NONE of NTs juices have been this!!!).....more "dripping down your chin juicy" :drool::p real!! LOVIN it so far, but also anxious (and hoping) the NET comes more forward as I expect it will.

I've also run it in a brand new nauti mini with a 1.9 Ohm BVC on an iStick and it seems to taste best at low-mid wattages. Sweet spot for me is between (the istick's "warmer") 7-10W range. The higher I go, the more creamy and ummm...hard to describe this....kinda like the peach gets overrun by "something" else....(infancy NET?) but is still absolutely wonderful. I just adore peach and therefore, am running it a bit lower to enjoy the best of that flavor (for me on this device) at this stage/age of the juice. DEFINITE KEEPER AND ADV ALREADY for me!!!

In the On Deck Circle: the Taifun GT 2:D

ETA I added nic to a Drippin 2 Go bottle of it, to bring it up to 12mg for my nauti mini and it's still smooth as glass with just the right amount of throat hit...even hot. ;)

25 watts has a nice balance to it today in my Tobh. I have a hard time with much less, and 30 watts seems to be smashing or compressing the flavor, if that makes any sense. Definitely getting peach and NET in there, looking for more of the creamy caramel I'm hearing about.
There's CARAMEL???? Another caramel addict here. **waves**

Build Information/Wicking Material: 27 g twisted 2 strand single coil, .63 ohm. Rayon wick.

Steep Time: 2days since picked

Device Type: DNA of one kind or another

Build Information/Wicking Material: 0.9ohm/26ga/7wraps/2.5mm/single vertical/KGD in the Marquis RDA @ 18-30w

Tasting Notes:

For me its already changed radically. SOOO much more NET. The peach has almost fallen to the back and I'm finding that apricot flavor seems to be the NET blending with the peach. It does come off with a hint of what might be called caramel, but I don't think that's quite it.

The NET is certainly making a grand entrance a lot earlier than I could have imagined. I swear it started to change no more than 12 hours after I transferred 15ml into a D2G bottle. Crazy.

EDIT: I dripped a little straight from the glass bottle (which hasn't gotten the light exposure and shaking as much) and the juice is a little sweeter and peach heavy compare to the 15ml I transfered.

Oh and the cap on the 60ml bottle now has stripped threads. Yay. :mad:

I just received yesterday and let breathe for a couple of hours and sealed up and let sit overnight.
First impressions:
You have a winner here Clark! I'm strictly a NT user and only vape Hummingbird/AA, Wakonda/Virus, and BSP/GCD in my Reos. I was pleasantly surprised that after half a Reo bottle that I can't put it down. I'm getting a hit of juicy peach on the front end with a hint of the NET and more NET on the back end and exhale. Neither part is over powering and the blend works well for me. I'm looking forward to seeing how Atalnta changes as it sits but I may have to order a couple of more 60ml to age because I seriusly doubt the 60 ml will last long. I can see this becoming an ADV for me. Good job. Now, just don't mess with me and make this a SR. :).

I know for me today on the same build, same Reo, with the same wicks the peach has mellowed and I am getting a lot more of the tobacco. This is the first time I have vaped it since I got my order on Tuesday and am liking it even more. Could The Virus and Wakonda have a new NET friend to be in the ADV status if it keeps going like this YES!!!!

Mine is more tobacco/net forward with the peach receding some.

Good good - glad it's not just me. I was digging it fresh, but it was a little bit "too sweet" for me. I was so far removed from the initial beta test I had forgotten how sweet it was, fresh. Seems less sweet, now - which is a good thing for me - and the NET is really starting to perform and do good things. Hitting it hard today.

That's exactly what I am getting up to this point Radio was the most tobacco forward of the NT vapes, but this is starting to come close to that status. With the tobacco first with some other flavors present but not dominating. After a half a bottle when I first got it I went back to The Virus that night I will probably finish off this full bottle this evening.
