House Blend will continue to change for about 4 weeks. The flavor will get richer and deeper as it ages.
Just to follow-up on my earlier post... I am more comfortable with HB now. Truly the bottle is developing as time passes. I also set up a Kir Fanis Fotia Tank with an Atmistique Diver and found it is working extremely well with HB at around 7watts.
I've found:
Coils are crud encased after about 10ml of vaping HB (no prob. I just build another)
7.5watts max temperature
silica doesn't gum up as much as cotton and/or SS
I'll probably pick up another bottle of HB sometime soon. I think it made it onto my list of flavors to keep around.

I love your avatar. My friends used to call me sweaterpants after not letting me live down wearing a pair of striped vintage Levis.
I keep hearing about the pie. Had a free 5ml sample of Pumpkin Pie come w/ the HB, and I'll definitely be re-stocking that one as I love spices in my vape.I'm not sure I know what Bugler rolling tobacco smells like.If I ever get tothe tobacco store I'll take a sniff...
Still looking for a juice that tastes like Bugler rolling tobacco smells. I'm not the only one. For some reason my homemade NET of a bag just tasted like an ashtray.
Going to throw in my two cents here. I've been vaping since 09 and House Blend is just about the best flavor I've ever had. I love this liquid! I've used HB (40/60) in my T2s and my Protank. I use 1.8ohm heads (silica) in both tanks with standard 3.7V ego batts and at 3.8-4.0V on my VV Twist. Unfortunately I can't vape for more than a day or two (~ 5-8ml) before my heads become nearly unusable in both tanks. Dry burning doesn't seem to help too much. Is this unavoidable?
I have noticed, over the past year or so, that my T2s sometimes have trouble with darker liquids. I've only been using my Protank for a couple weeks. I should be getting a Vamo in the mail soon, and I'm going to start making steel mesh wicks for my Protank and play around with different volt, wattage and ohm setups. I'm also going to try cotton wicks. In the meantime, any suggestions on keeping my heads from clogging up, like trying a thinner thinner mix maybe?
I was thinking about trying Voo's Broo. Is this a darker liquid? Is it possible that I might have the same trouble as with the House Blend?
Lastly, I just want to say thanks. Your liquids are amazing. Pumpkin Pie tastes great! The Raspberry sample you guys sent me was really good. And, I'm looking forward to trying your Apple Cider. Thanks again!
Thanks for the reply Asmuth. Should have mentioned, I do soak my heads in Vodka. In my experience with HB, and other darker/thicker liquids, soaking does help a bit. Some heads, you just can't save without re-wicking. I've heard about using evod heads, like you mentioned, might give those a try. I honestly don't know why I didn't start re-wicking my heads years ago, would have been saving a lot of money. Thanks again for the advice, it's much appreciated.
