hmmm... so Tribeca is some caramel an kettle corn? or you are saying others do that ... like 555 labels?
unlike most, i do not like Tribeca all that much .. it's vapable but i prefer to doctor it up.
i can't feel/taste any "tobacco" in it.
And back on topic for this thread, i love the Belgian until it gets "gassy" for lack of a better word.
Can't really sit this vape for long, and can't burn it hot, actually, better for me cool, as mentioned, at end of the battery's cycle.
there is a distinct gas smell to this if ran too hot or your coil gets gunked up with it.
There is thread in the joose forum about this for BC ... so it's a great vape ... until . . .
Anyhow, it's great when it's good, then it's just too gassy when it's no good.
i wonder if it's possible to fix this.
Worth the 7ml try to at least see what a real cocoa should taste like ... and so far, it is best chocolate cocoa i've run into.
Tribeca is primarily a caramel; not a far leap from chocolate.
Most cheap tobacco flavors are chocolate and kettle corn; you've probably had it already.
I didn't see myself vaping strawberry shortcake, or blueberry waffle with cream, yet here I am.

No, Tribeca is an RY4 variant: tobacco, caramel and vanilla. Yeah, the tobacco is barely there.
Other cheap tobacco flavors are often a cheap blend of chocolate and kettle corn. It's not very stable either. Steeping brings down the chocolate, and the kettle corn up, so you either hate it right away, or later. I've never tried a 555, but I've tried flavors sold as "Tobacco", and it was a waste of time.
I often add a few drops of AIV's "White Rabbit" to my Tribeca, to add a sweet coconut taste. It blends right in.

Sounds like you need a VV ("Spinner") battery.
I'm 3/4 of the way through my first tank of it and what's left is very dark; darn near opaque. It also doesn't seem to be as tasty as it was when I started. I think I'm gonna dump it, wash out the tank and refill with fresh, and use a 2.6-2.8 ohm coil on my next fill to see what if that helps keep it fresher.
[Time passes]
Wow! I should have taken a picture of what was left in the tank before I rinsed it so I could show how it compares to fresh, 'cause I didn't realize just how much darker the remnant was. The tank itself cleaned right up with nothing more than some warm water, but the old coil is still soaking. Installed a new 2.6-2.8 ohm coil, filled tank, and... What a difference. The taste is back. Fooled around with the voltages some. I'm thinking the sweet spot is right around 4.0 even with the higher-resistance coil.
Right?
The way I do Belgian now is only into a clean tank, and I'll only refill once. And I shake the bottle more than a latina dancer.
Belgian is like a classy woman, special handling required, but the outcome is more than worth it.
Voodoo is a classy one, too. I guess opposites attract.

I love my Belgian Cocoa so much that I've resorted to dripping-only. I don't want to waste a drop of my Belgian Cocoa. 
Just cracked open my BC...couldn't wait for steeping time. Tried it in a mini tank on a 600 battery...to dry for me. Added 1/3 of a triton tank to what also had 2/3 TriBeCa in it...and popped on a VV at 4 volts and it is wonderful. Having the VV is making a world of difference and now I get to experience ever juice at numerous settings to ensure I get the best one. Next up is mixing the BC with some Curse for a minty hot cocoa. Going to be a sublime evening
On a side note I have always vaped in the house but with BC this is the first time my wife noticed a smell in the air.

I just ordered a bunch of juice and you guys are making me want to order more Belgian Cocoa!
Been out of it for awhile and vaping others but I do miss it alot.
I do love putting a little bit of Kringle's in it from time to time.
It does taste like when you open a can of dry cocoa powder.
I love it and I don't like dark chocolate at all.
You guys are correct that this is one that you can't keep topping the tank off.
Did notice that when you deplete your bottle a bit and sometimes it loses that little bit of sweetness it has, I just add a drop or two of sweetner I got from Tasty Vapor and it tastes like new again.
Probably order a bottle tomorrow when I order coils, you guys are a bad influence on me I tell ya. LOL!
DaveOno, you shake the bottle more than a Latina dancer?
I would really like to see that!
I do have a mental picture though......I won't be able to get that out of my head all nite!
Kinda like when you get a song stuck in your head!

Belgian Cocoa was a pleasant surprise to me. I have tried a number of chocolate based vapes and most of them have been very disappointing.
Belgian Cocoa is just that, a cocoa-chocolate flavor, very clean without any unwanted flavors. It leaves a very authentic cocoa taste in the mouth after exhaling.
Like most dark ejuices, it is tough on your coils...

OK, I had said Belgian is best in a clean Triton tank with fresh coils.
Let me fix that. It is best in a VERY clean tank with New coils, or extremely clean coils.
I just filled a tank, and I'm getting just enough of the previous juice to make it yucky. Other flavors are more tolerant with this, like between the tobaccos, or the mints.
Belgian really needs, and deserves the freshest cleanest coils, wicks and tank. Trust me. The beautiful flavor must be pure.
(Yea, it rocks as the additive to Malibu, or Kringles. But it sucks with this fruity pear stuff from the last tank. I have learned!! It is getting better as the old flavor burns off, or gets more diluted. But I was looking for my great Belgium. The next tank will be surgically clean first.)

Belgium Cocoa can be summed up in a two word description: Tootsie roll. Nothing tastes like the dry sweet chocolate of a tootsie roll, and this is it. The similarities are uncanny. Coincidentally, my older sister just moved to Belgium with her husband on a government job, so when she sends me some chocolate, I'll have to compare how authentic this flavor is.
Unfortunately this flavor is extremely tough on wicks. The impurities quickly build up and gunk a coil to the point of no return. Lucky for me, I'm not one for dessert flavors, so this one gets a pass. Give me some more of this "fruity pear stuff"!

I find if I thoroughly clean my tank between each tankfull, and soak the coils in denture cleaner, I can use the coils several times. How many times, though, I forgot to count! That said, has anyone has success putting it into a cartotank and refilling? I'd love to put it in one, but I don't want to find it won't wick properly...
I just tried my first sample of it and it is a VERY strong chocolate and tootsie roll is a very good description. Although pretty good, there is no way I can make this an ADV by itself so when I drain this tank down a little, I will def be adding something to it to experiment.
The only problem I can foresee is that it is such a strong flavor, I can see it over powering others so I will be using drops sparingly with other flavors. I can assume then, this 7 ml sample will last me quite some time! which is a good thing!

I know you don't like the Kringles but the two are made for each other. Think of a snuggler at the ski resort - hot cocoa with peppermint schnapps...
Belgian is definitely intense, and all by itself you have to be in the mood for it to some extent, but it blends with other flavors -beautifully-. I've enjoyed it with Prime, Tribeca, Torque, Kringles, Twisted. When mixed, the cocoa takes a sort of back seat to the other flavor, making the whole flavor richer and earthier.
It's true that Belgian, by itself, really benefits from having a pristine tank and coils. When you're mixing it though you can be far less fussy.

I'm going to give this a whirl but I'm just not a peppermint fan and don't like peppermint schnapps. LOLOL. Too bad it wasn't banana schnapps because seriously, I could see Belgian mixing w/a banana flavor very nicely!!!! Throw in some walnuts....yum
If Halo comes out with some kind of pure fruit, cherry, banana, strawberry, apple, raspberry, dragon fruit, huckleberry, blueberry .. you know the Halons will be dunking it into the Belgian asap.
I've been secretly praying
and trying to send vibes to Halo for a banana or blueberry or a raspberry vape but I'd love it complex with vanilla, cinnamon, cheesecake something like that..layered and complex. Kinda like VOODOO.- Status
