I recently placed an order with Rocky Mountain Vapor during last weekend's big sale.
Arrived quick! Order complete! Happy Man!

Normally I stick to the tobacco and RY4 stuffs, with a dabble into the
coffee, chocolate, cinnamon, and such..

So, I thought I'd be bold ( at these prices! ) and grab a few new flavors.
RedBull
Cola
Clove
555
Marboro

...and several bottles of unflavored for diluting and mixing.

The Redbull was just what you'd expect. Tart and tangy.
Made my mouth water.. (drooling into your 801 is not a good idea.)
But it was very tasty. Not an everyday flavor, but something new.
Still wondering how good it is ( for you ) to be vaping Redbull...... hmm...

The cola was..well..kinda cola flavored.. more like the opposite of flat cola.
It had the tangy kick a coke gives, but none of the sweetness.
Pepsi vs. Coke? I dunno.. Might have to work with that one a bit more.
A little sweeter would be better, methinks.

The clove.. yummmm Just what you'd expect. I'm used to a wee bit
stronger flavor, but it was an excellent and enjoyable "vape"?
Can't get used to using that word yet.

The 555? are you kidding me?
I had heard that it was a tobacco/nutty flavor.
I was imagining some toasted almond or a woodsy/nutty mix with tobacco and some flavor..
Note that I've read here in the forums that it is a very popular flavor.

It's like somebody had packed my 801 with peanut butter.
Bad peanut butter. I couldn't get it out of my atty fast enough.
But of course, it's one of those flavors that doesn't go away. Or mix.
Or get covered up. I screwed up.. Bad.

Not that it isn't a good quality juice, or anything against our fine vendor.
I'm sure that others enjoy sucking PB out of their PVs.. Not me.

Somebody PM me about this 50mL bottle before it finds the trashcan.
or perhaps someone has a helpful hint on how-to mix it with something to
make it yummy? or wants to swap for a more 'traditional' 50mL flavor?

I still taste it in this atty... dirty baby diaper flavor.. yuck!

Thanks again for the fast service, easy ordering, and great prices.

Thanks for the feedback, folks.

I ended up trading it to a friend for some coffee flavor,
so it didn't end up being wasted or tossed in the trash.

Must be my tastebuds. Seems to be liked by many.

Coffee flavor is MoBetta!

I made a blend of 20 drops coffee, 10 vanilla, 10 caramel,
and 5 or so drops of VG to add some volume and vapor. Tastee!

You know I thought it was just me, I don't like the taste of 555 and I have tried several brands thinking maybe it was the vendor. I don't get it, I don't understand what it is that everyone likes about it. Someone said something about dirty diaper, well I say its close. I have a 30ml bottle/and 3 15ml bottle from 4 different vendors, and that **** don't taste any better from one vendor to the next. I have even tried to mixed it with other flavor and that nasty taste will come through no matter what, can't stand it and it seem to stay in your att for a long time.

Vinyl,
How do you know what 'dirty baby diaper' tastes like? JK:lol::lol::lol:
Without getting into the gutter with talk of sexual innuendos,
fetishes, or chewing on your fingernails....:pervy:

It is an acquired taste, which comes with much practice after 3 kids
and 5 grandkids, all of whom have lived with me at one time or another.

There's the "up to your elbows in poop" dirty diaper.:w00t:
There's the "dogs got into the trash again" dirty diaper.:mad:
There's the "how long has THIS been in the car/diaper bag" dirty diaper.:confused:
There's the "Hey, these diapers dissolve in a kiddie pool" dirty diaper. :p
Then there's the ultimate "Sprinkler mode /ON while changing diaper".:shock:

Here recently, there has been the "oohs and aahs" and "show & tell"
of another newborn grandson's first "dirty diapers".:thumbs:

All of these instances offer a variety of odors, colors and flavors
that are unique and unmistakable to those who have experienced it.

555 is a flavor of British Tobacco's "State Express 555" cigarette, very popular in China. I prefer the Dekang version of 555 to other souces and I'm betting that RMV is the Dekang.

My personal favorite right now is Dunhill; more tobaco and less carmel undertones than RY4 (I vaped 5ml. of this in one night when I first got it).

I'd like to try the Dunhill at some point, but I've shyed away from 555 from the beginning because... I've actually had 555 cigarettes from Taiwan.

And now whenever I think of them I hear "Comic Book Guy" from The Simpsons saying, "Worst. cigarette. ever."

But given how close "Marl" and "Camel" flavours are to the real thing, maybe the 555 is actually good- I haven't tried the juice.
