Best gourmet ejuice vendors

[Laura10]

Hey everyone! Just scrolled though almost the whole thread (skipped some of the middle pages though) and have found it really helpful! I am a major AiV lover, but wanted to try some new flavors too. I just placed an order for the sample pack from 5 Pawns! Can't wait to get it! Below are a few others I am dying to try, but scared because they only come in 30 ml bottles....anyone have any opinions on if I should just spurge? I really wish there was a local vape shop around me.

The Standard - Frankenvape
The Standard - Erie Nights - DYING to try this!!
Jamesons - Peaches and Cream
Suicide Bunny - Mothers Milk (if it is better or different enough from AiV's Zombie Apocalypse?)
AiV - Sweet Tease
AiV - Bandersnatch
Blueprint - C.R.E.A.M.

Supreme steam vapors- cloud 9.5

Awesome grape vape with melon...I don't like melon vapes, and this is the first that I do like. I don't get the melon at all luckily. It is a very recommendable mellow fruit vape, not too fruity. Very cloud 9ish....

Glad you found the thread helpful! I have purchased from most of the vendors in the thread!
I would suggest:
Suicide Bunny- I have mothers milk, and The ob , but I am more a fan of the ob. Mothers milk is ok.
AIV- I have all juices from them except sweet tease. Not a fan of bandersnatch. Many are though, so it is purely a matter of taste. They are the best all around vendor I have tried!
The standard- I have most if their juices. I would recommend irie nights! Great FOOB! Frankenvape is good too.
Jameson's- I have Tanjello. A delicious tangerine. I have heard good things about peaches and cream.
Blue print- have not tried, but if you like Creamys,custards, and vanilla, this is supposed to be a good one. I will be putting in an order for this one too!

Good luck! I'm looking forward to hear about the juices you choose! Please report back with your impressions

Thanks so much for your takes on my "want to try list"

So far I have not tried to many gourmet flavors, only ones from AiV. Below are my thoughts on the ones I have tried....

Zombie Apocalypse- This is my all day vape. I <3 it! To me it tastes like a strawberry shortcake. It is not as strong as some may like, but is perfect for all day. The exhale is even better than the inhale. It was good on arrival, but even better after a week. I will never be without it!

Pun'kin Tumble - I LOVE it! I am in love with anything pumpkin, and have tried a few other pumpkin juices already and this is my favorite. It is more like a pumpkin roll than pumpkin spice, which is nice because I can vape it a lot, and it is not overpowering. This one was very good right out of the box!

Lemon Loves Cake - This was another winner for me! It tastes just like lemon pound cake! Sooooo yummy! It does need steeping though. This will definitely be in my permanent rotation.

Black and White Cookie - I wanted to love this, but it was way more chocolate than I was hoping. I really was hoping for more of an oreo flavor, but mostly got chocolate. I will try again after steeping, but based on my first go, I probably will not order a bigger bottle. However, I am not a chocolate fan, if you are try it for sure!

Cupcake City - I was soooo hopeful for this, and based on the description and reviews I was sure this would be my favorite, but it was blah. Not so cupcakey, not much flavor at all really. I let it steep for 2 weeks, and while I found it less purfumey, it still does nothing for me. There is a touch left in the bottle, so I will try again at some point, but am almost sure I would never reorder it. Kinda bummed to be honest.

A Quiet Morning - I found this to be a bit purfumey at first, but after steeping it was much better. It is a very delicate flavor, and complex, but not quite my taste. I could see lots of people loving it though. I think the description of passion flower and green tea fits it perfectly.

I am awaiting a few more flavors from AiV.....White Rabbit, Twas Brilling, & Fifteen Foot Falls. I will update once they come I can't WAIT to try them!

Also, not gourmet, but just for fun, my first order other than the Blu Cig flavors I had been using was from Sweet-Vapes.com. I LOVE the Candy Cane Flavor with extra flavor. It is JUST like a candy cane! Peppermint and sweet! If you are looking for a nice minty or holiday flavor I would recommend it for sure! I ordered a 30ml bottle after the sample was quickly gone! The other flavors I tried from them were not a hit with me....Very Vanilla (purfumey), Cinnamon Buns (tasted burnt), Apple Pie (pretty good, but not reorder worthy), and Thin Mint (pretty good, may reorder at some point, but want to try others first, needs steeping).

Haven't tried Sweet- Vapes yet. I have a cart ready to order there

I am a HUGE AIV fan! They are as gourmet as it gets!

My favorites from them are 'Twas Brillig, Zombie Apocolypse, 15 foot falls, A quiet morning, white rabbit.

Enjoying Villain Vapors queen of hearts! Strawberry cake. Delicious vape. Mellow, smooth, creamy, cakey. Nice dessert vape. A lush strawberry flavor.

I want to try Frankenvape and also Irie Nights from The Standard soooo bad! Really wish they made a smaller bottle or sample size....same with Jameson's Peaches and Cream. :/ If I do all three I am at $69 for 3 flavors I am not sure I will love or not. Hmmmmm decisions decisions LOL!

I have been following and posting in this thread but don't want to go back through all the pages-so can any of you give opinions on Nicoticket e-liquids? Are these gourmet? or pretty straight forward/standard liquids? I was reading through http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/503973-ecf-best-2013-a.html and am surprised at the support this vendor has.

 

[Laura10]

I just tried Sweet-Vapes.com's Key Lime Pie with extra flavor and OMG I LOVE it! I have to say it is now in my top 3! Going to order a 30 ml and also get a few more sample bottles from them in Boston Cream Pie, and Snickerdoodle (both of which I have heard really good things about). Oh and just a note as a vendor, they have been awesome! Their customer service has been perfect and they ship very fast!

Edited to add: If you want to try any from Sweet-vapes.com I just opened my emails and they are running a sale! 15% off e-liquids in 15ml & 30ml sizes with code XMASVAPES (sale ends Friday).

LOL, no it means that I posted in the wrong thread. That was supposed to go in a contest thread.

I don't have a favorite right now that you probably would like... I've been vaping straight menthol (Digitalcigzz and DIY Flavorshack) and peach menthol (Volvapor and DIY Flavorshack) for a very long time, mainly because I'm a super-taster and in the past 5 years everything else that I've have had (which is a lot) tastes like perfume or incense to me. I'm steeping a lot of liquids right now but so far the only smells that I can tolerate and that I want to vape are from Dripeez, can't wait to try them. I have some coming from ECBlends and AlienVisions, I'm getting ready to order some from Kick Bass Vapor as well.

I'll update you when I get some results out of steeping!

I was actually really disappointed with my Free State order. I just got a sample pack of the best sellers and also the carrot cake. Well, the CC tastes absolutely nothing like cake.. just was a whole bunch of spices and not sweet at all.. actually kindof bitter. Overall, its pretty gross. The vanilla-mint wasn't horrible, but mint overpowers everything. Since they call it vanilla+mint, I expected them to be balanced, and they're not. Co-kona nut wasn't terrible either, but does have that obnoxious vein of boozeyness that plagues pretty much every coffee liquid I've ever tried. Still, probably a better coffee liquid than 80% of the coffee vapes I've tried. The lychee-pear was the sweetest of the bunch, making it taste more like a candy than genuine fruit. Wasn't horrible overall, but I wanted authentic fruit taste and didn't get it. Sorry for venting but to call Free State a "gourmet" vendor is really a stretch, imo. They have a long way to go in tweaking those recipes to make them taste like what they're selling them as.

It's surprising how little variety i see on that "best of" thread. I just got Franilla & Snickerdoodle. The Snickerdoodle seems good so far-mild, probably needs to steep. The Franilla is nice-very vanilla flavor and an eggy custard note, lots of vapor too, but I'm also getting a bit of a chemical or alcohol taste on that one that i figure will go away once it steeps-i wish i'd have asked if they could make it 100%vg instead of their standard 50/50. I think maybe i've become spoiled by that kind of fresh crisp clean flavor that i've been getting from free state, dripeez, and virgin vapor lately

I'm with you on the VG. Much better vape IMO.
