Biggest let-down? Biggest pleasant surprise?

[RadarLuv1]

Vapor Kings Pina Colada is my all time favorite & Pineapple from Potent Smokables. I'm in a summer phase. Worst: Pina colada from a local head shop where I am pretty sure they were too baked to make my juice.

Oh and I figured out that I don't like anything that contains raspberry. Although the juice was good quality from american eliquid, I HATE raspberries!

Recently I would say my biggest let down was strawberry kiwi from MBV it just had an odd taste to me that no matter how many times I try to like it I can't, it tastes more like bananas and perfume and it isn't a steep issue either, sadly. (but some of their other flavors rock!) To my surprise I recieved a sample of VS4 from vapor station an I absolutely love it, it tastes like caramel and graham crackers...wasn't something I would have expected myself to like

Biggest let down:

Hands down is ChiTown vapors Cinnamon Roll. I love the CTV. They have great flavors. I ordered 30 mils with a double shot of this thinking I would love it since I love most of what they have with an extra flavor shot. Sweet merciful crap it was awful! I mean just awful. Like putting a stick of rancid butter in your mouth. Nothing cuts it. It's like a virus taking over a host whenever it's mixed with something. If there is ever a Zombie apocalypse, this stuff will be the ground zero for it because I am sure it's going to mutate into something we can't control. No amount of steeping makes it better. It's been in my drawer for 2 months now and it's nearly black. If it ever starts to bubble or sizzle, I'll call a Hazmat team into contain it like nuclear waste if they can. It might be fine with a regular amount of flavor but this bottle has tainted my view of it forever.

Biggest surprises were two: The first was Roar's Amnesia. Got it and it was ok. Two weeks later it had transformed into something wonderful, unique and completely awesome. It's like vaping a dream.

The other great surprise were Madd Catt Vapers Blue and Red Energy juice. Simply awesome stuff. They aren't like Mad Bull, they are better and highly recommended.

My biggest letdown was totally wickeds pillbox 38 Maddog. It was a mustard flavor. Usually their flavors are really good but I hated this flavor.

My biggest surprise was dekang caramel.

A lot of ecblends flavors have surprised me. Most of them have been pretty spot on with the taste too. I received a sample of vanilla gorilla, and loved it.

I like ECBlends Vanilla Gorilla too, but with a name like that, I was expecting the vanilla to smack me in the face. Not so, though.....still looking for a replacement for Blu-Cigs Vivid Vanilla. Soon to try Johnsons Creek vanilla.

Biggest letdown: Organic Green Apple from ecblends. Was looking for that sour granny smith taste but what I got was downright nasty...tasted like rotten apples, with copious amounts of dill and perfume.

Biggest surprise: Maui Menthol from goodejuice...like vaping a sweet delicious tropical menthol cocktail.

 

[cerver7]

my biggest let down was Five Pawns juice. Too weak on the flavor and vapor. Plus the $$ was a bit high.

My biggest surprise - Pluid. I hate black licorise and anything that resembles it, but pluid is my ADV and is the best juice i have tried in my almost 4 years of vaping.

 

[Eranda13]

So far... really disappointed by HHV Serendipity. Just way too cigar-tasting for me.

Most pleasant surprise? A Banana Split flavor from a B&M in my area. Juicy, wonderful sweetness

 

[Coldpunk]

Biggest disappointment: The Dean from fuzion. I was hoping for a good tobacco but it tasted like floor cleaner


Biggest surprise: Copper Creek House Blend. It came as a sample with an order of their coffee(which is fantastic!) and became an adv.

I just tried a gummy bear that tasted too much like the smell of the stuff they use to clean the toilet with at work. Cannot. Vape. It.

Biggest surprise: Maui Menthol from goodejuice...like vaping a sweet delicious tropical menthol cocktail.

You might try Halo Midnight Apple. Not real sour but definitely 'granny smith' tasting. Touch of menthol too.

Maui Menthol sound like what my bottle of Halo Malibu has steeped into. At first I got pineapple, menthol and a touch of coconut. But as the ingredients have melded together a bit it's more cocktail like and I haven't decided if I like it that way.

So far... really disappointed by HHV Serendipity. Just way too cigar-tasting for me.

Really?....I love cigars. May have to get a sample. One persons trash is another persons treasure.

 

[SKYYcamel]

Biggest letdown.....Ahlusion's Gold Rising. Biggest pleasant surprise....Vapor.....'s OuR-Y4.

Biggest great surprise is smilin menthol nobacco juice from v4l (the one with the blue smiley face not the green) its the perfect menthol for those newbs leaving a marlboro or maverick menthol 100 habit behind. It has just a wonderful full body minty menthol hit and taste with nice undertones of almost a vanilla coffee taste to it. BIGGEST LET DOWN I won a bottle go gingers ejuice and ordered the vanilla.. couldnt taste any vanilla or any flavor for that matter. Just slightly sweet nothingness..

Biggest surprise so far would be the bananas gone nuts from MBV. Biggest let down was my dragons blood from ECblends. Stuff just tastes sooo peppery no matter how long I've let it steep and it's been about a week and a half with a small 5ml bottle.

 

[Train2]

So don't flame me but...because of it's INCREDIBLE reputation, people knocking down the internet trying to order it, and my eager anticipation when I got an order placed, my biggest let-down has got to be Boba's Bounty!
It's VERY complex and interesting, but...I just don't really like it!

Biggest surprise - tie between

a) MrELiquid's Grey Matter - surprising because it is a WEIRD flavor, that I absolutely cannot identify, but I kept vaping it and have used it up and ordered more

and

b) Velvet Cloud's Vanilla Tobacco, because it was HORRIBLE when fresh with a chemical-vanilla-perfume-thing going on, but now a week later, has become a contender for an every-day vape - maybe a little TOO mild if anything. Also because I wasn't LOOKING for an all-VG, but that's all they have - and I'm enjoying the tons of vapor I get.

biggest dissappointment has to be DK555 and RY555 from EC blends. completely unvapeable IMO. had some type of odd powdery/rancid taste to it. let both steep over a month too.

biggest surprise is probably V4L WOW 555, Apollo RY4 or coconut cream pie and banana cream pie from Vapedudes. those 2 pie juices are fan-damned-tastical...haha
another big surprise was with the SD keyring device with the marlboro flavored carto that came with it. whatever juice that is, is spot on for marlboro reds. (PAD 25 year smoker here)
another nice one is MBV razzle for when you want to get smashed in the face with a basket full o berries.

i would also add the V4l WOW cinnamon banana juice. i was skeptical at first, but i blew threw the 10ml bottle in 2 days. really tasty stuff.


[edit]
forgot about a few more more big disappointments. MBV RY4. not sure how or why maple got put into that mix, but it was horrid on day 1 and day 70. guess i just dont like to vape anything maple.

Khlorine - while not a huge disappointment, its def. not something that i will vape often. glad i only ordered a 10ml bottle
Dorky stud - i dont know what this flavor is supposed to be, but its almost like someone miscalculated the ingredients for pancakes, and tossed in nutmeg and maybe some hazelnut and enough sugar to make a diabetic cry for mommy. way to sickeningly sweet for me to vape by itself, much in the vane of NVL bounty hunter sweet. i did find though, that a few drops of it goes very nicely with vapedudes vanilla tobacco (a very light flavor originally) so it wasnt a complete waste.

my first order from MBV was disappointing AND surprising.
I ordered menthol, cider fire, venom, and mt dew.
HATED them all. Now nearly 3m later I gave away the menthol and venom, and I'll probably dump the mt dew and cider. Kept hoping they may turn out alright. haven't.

They included a freebie of white tea, and I ignored it while going through some samplers and I've vaped about half the 15mls in the last week or so. I have a big bottle being deposited at my house, along with several other flavors I want to try.

In fairness to MBV - it was my first juice order.
I've found I prefer koolada enhanced fruity vapes. or nearly nothing (white tea)
I haven't liked ANY of the bakery flavors i've had for more than a few puffs. I finally got a dripping atty tho, so I may start using them now.

Lot of disappointments. Pink Spot from Pink Spot. And the other 5 flavors I ordered from them. That's also where I finally learned that regardless of how many recommendations from here or 5 star reviews there it sometimes means nothing.

Even though HHV is a top vendor I was shocked at their tobacco flavors.(I didn't vape tobacco till them. Wrong, I had Boba's and GJ first...tasty stuff.) I picked up two new from HHV. Cinful Pear(awesome Pear and cinammon, dead on.) Bah-In. Fruit.. Peach pear sorta thing. It's like a lighter version than Hype.

I gone thru lots of vendors, good folks, but for me, I have a high batting average with HHV. For now my horse will be tied up just outside their store.

One other thing, Even if I love a flavor when I reorder I will still order 15 ml. I burn out fast on flavors so buying small will save money, even with freight, but I won't have big bottles around.

I think that was one of my biggest surprises when I first started vaping in general. I tried so many bakery flavors, but I do not like many of them. I started out trying one from each new vendor I tried, but I eventually gave up. I always smoked natural cigarettes like American Spirits, Nat P. Sherman's, or Dreams, so I'm surprised at how much I love the menthol flavors.
