I tried Stash's My Sweet One (berry flavored) this week. It wasn't bad just a little too subtle for me. Once my tank was empty, I refilled it with Ahlusion's Billow Berry. Ahh, there we go..my berry flavor is back. One step up in flavor for me is Nicoticket's Raz Cup. I love the flavor, but don't like that it clogs my coils quicker than Billow Berry.
Haven't really started on the NETS yet but will be trying some for a diversion from all the sweets. Recently got Charlie Nobles Pistachio ry4 and this is starting to grow on me. Seems like a lot of good sites for the NETS so we shall see, I'm so sick of trying disappointing liquids that it really got me gun shy. Thanks for the recommendations.
I love Boba Tea like a sunflower loves the sun.
That said, it's not for everyone. Also, I've noticed (and I've ordered it A LOT over the last couple of years) that custom is better than XPress, but steeped is better than unsteeped (dilemma, I know!).
Other than that, I totally concur with chanel's recommendations--except for the second. I didn't care for either Saturday Morning or Billow Berry.
Gahhh... I got distracted by the internet and didn't post my response in time. So, to answer your later question... Pretty much all of them should be steeped. Maybe. Try them all right away, and if you like them, go ahead and vape them up, but then re-order and try them steeped on your 30 (or 60) ml order. If they don't do it for you, put them away and try them later.
I agree, I think all but Lemon Vanilla Cake need steep time. At least 2-3 weeks. Remember to open them right away and let air exchange (doing this daily will help) shake shake shake
Same here. I've vaped literally 90% of three local B&M's gourmet liquids all in either subtank nano's or Nauutilus tanks and I only liked 4 of them - Spacejam Eclipse, Button Junkie Vulture Punch, Mile High Sinful and a VIP one which was a kind of caffe Mocha with a hint of rum or something in it. Cutwood's Sugar Bear was 'okay' but not worth the cost for me.
I'm totally gun shy from ordering online without trying first, that is an insane notion to me now, most 'gourmet juice' is £16-£18 for 30ml and of most of the top ones mentioned on ECF I have only liked 4 I listed above. Also some have sounded SO GOOD in descriptions (Space Jam Venus really let me down) but then I try them in store in good tanks they have had time to steep in and they are a major disappointment. I only order online now with my cheap but already tried and tested tested mixer juice like Hangsen RY4 or ones I've tried in a B&M and only then because the B&M's don't often do zero nic but online does or if online is significantly cheaper....
Guess I'm just fussy....
@jnslprd If SDV tasted cheap it tasted cheap
You didn't have to delete your opinion. This is the second or third time I heard this so it's a confirmation no SDV for me. it sure steered me away from sleeping dragon vapor for bit . Confirmed bottom listed. Ahlusion Bound.
Thanks for the heads up and unbiased opinion!
I feel ya, the descriptions always got to me too and then the juice would come and it would be like BLEECH...I think I eventually learned that nothing was really going to taste like they said it would (mountains of fluffy cake with mounds of strawberries and whipped cream, a dollop of vanilla pudding etc etc) find a flavor profile that you like, find a vendor that is tried and true.Same here.

I think this is where Ahlusion came in for me. Spent so much money and kept coming up with BUT juice, plasticky, waxy, gross stuff with all this aftertaste. I found Ahlusion to always be a 'safe' bet with good clean flavors. Just learned to deal with the steep time dilemma. It was better than dealing with the 'wasting money' dilemma
Good morning guys, I got my first stash order- my sweet one,dark star,pb&j am,farmhouse and suspicious minds. I think everything needs some steep time but farmhouse and suspicious minds....quite good FOOB. I've got some Ahlusion boba tea coffee, caramel coffee, and Kent's blend on the way. They do so well with coffee vapes. Of course I had to get in on the FOTW at Plume room and have some more pistachio pudding on the way. Can't wait to see some Black Friday sales just in case ...lol I need more juice like I need a hole in my head, but hey I'm a juice addict, I'm ok with that.
I suspect SDV may have a 20% off sale for Black Friday. I do not recall ever seeing a discount greater but I could be wrong.
I completely respect anyone's opinion and experience as to their take on juice. From differing palettes and tastes, to differing atomizers and builds, there are so many variables.
I have had expensive juice that was yucky and affordable juice that was amazing.

My favs are Pineapple Cream (sweetened), Lemon Vanilla Cake, Caramel Apple, and Autumn Mist. Haven't tried Boba.
I really love Lemon Cream, Lime Cream, and Pineapple Cream (sweetened), but PC is the only Ahl I get sweetened. It's funky in the rest of them.Not sure where you got this idea
The largest quantities that I have had on hand consistently for the last two years has been Ahlusion. At one point I thought that HHV might beat my Ahlusion holdings but this did not occur. At present, I have 3 times the quantity of Ahlusion on hand in comparison to HHV.
Lemon Cream is my 2nd favorite Ahl flavor and like you I never tire of it. I also never hesitate to buy multiple bigun's of this one like I did today

Sorry to just .... into your great thread here, but I am always reading and some of you know me from the Ahlusion thread. Been a die hard Ahlusion fan for over 4 years now. Anyways, just had to reply to Chanel......
Have you tried the Whipped Pumpkin yet?
Anyways, just had to reply to Chanel......Chanel, I'm so glad you like the Car-Nut Cheesecake!
Have you tried the Whipped Pumpkin yet?Dreamer, I know I'm not chanel, but seriously if you love cheesecake, I would definetly recommend trying American Cheesecake eliquids. His Car-nut and Whipped pumpkin are great. The Strawberry is also very good, and he just came out with a non cheesecake that is a peppermint sugar cookie, that is also very, very good.
I was hungry so I ate it..hee hee

Thank you for reminding me about American Cheesecake! That whole line sounds delicious - hoping for a Black Friday sale there!

I'm in Monroe County & we only got about 3", but it was such a wet, heavy snow that now it's all ice...yuck!!I'll see if I can't influence the owner of American cheesecake to offer some type of sale.
The nice thing for you will be how fast you'll get an order from there, since they are close to you. Plus it's always free shipping.- Status
