I also just recently received Blend 4 from AVE and my reaction is 180° from yours. I am a fan of Halo Torque and Bella Valente and I find this to be very similar profile, with maybe a little less of the musty (good musty) flavor I get from Halo.

I did let mine sit for a week before trying, don't know if that mattered or not. So again, different taste buds.....

Although I will say that this does NOT resemble ANY of the various RY4 derivatives I have had from other sources. But I did not have any preconceived notions about it. So Steef, if your Blend 4 needs a home hit me up

Taste is subjective. You don't like it. Many others may love it. I always try to stay away from statements like "It Sucks!" and "Don't Buy It!" when it comes to matters of personal opinion.

Yeah seriously. The review told us nothing about it whatsoever. All we know is that you don't like it... and that's not a compelling reason to buy it or avoid it.

I have had it a few times... and here's my thoughts.
Contrary to toothboy, I found it to be not sweet at 24mg. Throat hit was intense... Heavier on the tobacco and vanilla than the caramel - The flavor was not as pronounced as with other AVE liquids... in fact, I'd say it was lacking in a dominant flavor... On the other hand, I would hesitate calling it "complex" since it never really came into focus for me later...

Like the OP, it is not one of my favorite AV flavors and given the deliciousness of Ben's Caramel Kicker, I was expecting Blend 4 to have hints of caramel kicker... but it did not...
I did not find it nasty... and I may try it again another time...
Overall, I was a bit disappointed that it didn't have more of the caramel kicker flavor in it.

Tons of vapor like other AV flavors... and second to only irish cream with throat hit.

Very much worth a try if you like Backwoods Brew's RY4 and nHaler's RYNot. Probably not what you would like if you like sweeter RY4's like FSUSA's and Vapor STations.

Toothboy ;-) feel free to call me crazy for saying it wasn't sweet... maybe we have different taste buds or we got different batches.

Les, now I need to try it again in light of your comparing the flavor profile to Halo... you might be on to something...

O.K. You are correct!!!! I do not like it for the following reasons,,,,

No Flavor to speak of!!!
I too believed it would have some sweetness to it as in the flue cured flavor I purchased.

Tooo Harsh on the throat hit for me.... I was an avid 555 user but wanted to try something a little closer to a tobacco flavor but did not expect it to be that bad(IMO).....

I apologize!!!! I should not get tanked up and get on this or any forum for that matter(Liquid Courage) Again,,, My Apologies !!!

Steef :(
 
I personaly did not like Blend 4 as it tasted like Pipe tobbacco Smells to me. I really do love AVE Juices though I recently ordered a 5 pack of samples and went through all 5 in a week as the Carmel Kicker and Irish Creme mix so well with everything like Bobbas and others. I just wish the Blueberry had more flavor or wish there was a way to get double flavoring on some of the Juices. Blend 4 and Gorrila Juice have a somewhat similar undertone of course Blend 4 does not have the bannanna flavor. Has anyone ever asked Ben if they could get double flavoring?

I like Blend 4 but like so many juices it does need to steep a while. I have not found an AVE juice that I did not like. After having trouble with so many juices out there I switched to 100% VG from Alien Visions and have not had any issues since. I would also agree that taste is SO subjective its hard to tell someone "do not buy this flavor", I have read so many reviews where people were raving about a flavor and everybody loved it only to buy it and I thought what have these people been vaping that they think this tastes good!? Everyone's tastebuds are different so take reviews with a grain of salt and try it, you might like it ! Vape on!
