I've never tried BB before, but obviously I've heard lots of people talk about it. I picked up 18mL yesterday as I'm interested to try it. I don't typically vape tobacco flavored e-liquid, so I was hesitant to buy Too much. In an attempt to ration it (in case I like it), I think that I will exclusively drip it (as opposed to putting it in a tank). I don't think that it will arrive before the long weekend, but we'll see.

I find Boba's & Gorilla Juice to be pretty close to an analog type flavor. Although my taste buds are completely shot I barely taste the mystery flavor of Boba's described as raisins. The banana in GJ to me is barely there. I am surprised by both. Not exactly what I was thinking it was gonna taste like although it's my go to for the moment.
All in all it's pretty good but not earth shattering.

Does anyone else feel this way?

Yeah the banana is really light in the GJ.

Boba's is not "earth shattering" for me by any means, at first i thought it was just ok, but then i gave it a decent amount of time and ran a couple more tanks, and now i nearly have to force myself to vape something else. Once it gets ahold of ya it doesnt seem to let go.

I honestly don't know if any liquid could really be that "life changing" for me, but there are some, Boba's being one, that sure do make vaping a pleasure.

That is so true. When I ordered my first bottle I got 12ml, tried it and thought "EH, NOT REALLY GETTING IT". Then a few days later tried it again and it was a little better so I filled another T3S. Without ever realizing it, BAM, it had me in its grasp. That was right at the height of the website relaunch, so I could not get anymore and was out for several weeks. I was going nuts, so when I could order more i loaded up with 2 100ml bottles. Now a month later, first 100 gone. No other juice comes close to the rich full flavor tobacco taste.

With so much unvapeable liquid out there I must say That Boba's & Gorilla Juice at least give me a decent vape. I've really been struggling trying to find flavors I like. I can't imagine any one flavor being an all day vape for me, yet. Is there such a thing?
Boba's is my current favorite but I switch back & forth with GJ. Everything else I've tried is just to sweet or chemical tasting.
So the adventure rolls on. At least AVE seems to be open more & more & that's a really good thing.

You have to order early in the morning. They stop taking orders after so many orders are taken. At least that's what I think is going on with them. Good luck.

Sold out of both Boba's and GJ since earlier today.

The store is open quite a bit now, but depending on how long theyre out, expect another big rush when it comes back in.

When its back in stock make sure its the real Boba's.

Glad I ordered a 100ml of both Boba's and Gorilla Juice!

Boba's is different for everyone who tastes it. For me it's a mild but tasty tobacco with a light graham cracker pleasantly accompaning it. It's sweet, but not cloying and the tobacco balances it out.

Gorilla Juice to me is a stronger tobacco taste but with a pleasant banana flavor, which sounds like crap (seriously, banana and tobacco?) but actually makes for a great tasting juice. I think theres maybe a hint of coconut too. My only problem with it is I get vapor tongue off of it pretty quick and cannot differentiate the banana from any of the other flavors.

I usually carry 2 tanks with me, with both I get vapor tongue and after one sets in I move to the other and vise versa. It works for me and keeps my taste buds guessing.

Either way you go, both have great throat hit and are fog machines. They both tasted great straight out of the package, but after a week of time doing its thing they both tasted even better a week or two later. No steeping required, just letting time naturally do its work. Both flavors are unique and no one has replicated either.

I'm convinced AVE is using some Asian or Chinese flavorings, every flavoring vendor stateside has a signature base I can usually nail, but not AVE's. Either way they make good stuff!

This is almost exactly how I feel. Every single juice I bought from my local vape shop has an off taste, very chemical. I'm pretty new at this, so I figured it was something I would have to get used to. When I first tried BB, it just seemed to have a more natural taste by comparison.
Right now it is my all day vape. I've not yet tried GJ, but I have some ordered and on the way.

I do have some Halo juices that I like, but I'm afraid that those won't get used until completely out of BB. I try to vape it as to conserve on my BB, but I always end up switching back.

Alien vision and Alien vapor both have Bobas Bounty - which one is genuine?

Same thing happened to me. Then someone here told me that the genuine Boba's can only be ordered 100% VG. No exceptions. I was lucky. I understand many people have ordered from the knock-off site by mistake.

Tons of people have unfortunately. You will regularly see threads pop up with people asking why everyone goes crazy for Boba's because the bottle they got tastes terrible. I truly feel bad for them when they come to the realization that they just Googled "Boba's Bounty" and were duped.

But as to Boba's catching you and not letting go: I'm firmly in its grasp. Every day that goes by it tastes a little different to me (in a good way), and it doesn't give me vaper's tongue like many of the eliquids I really enjoyed before it. It's not the only thing I vape, but for the past week it's been the only juice I've put in a tank. I constantly have an EVOD filled up with it on an iTaste VV V3 and carry it with me whenever I leave the house; I have another EVOD and a Protank that I'm not even using; I just drip a couple of other different flavors throughout the day when I feel like vaping something sweet or fruity, usually right after meals.

Thankfully I just got 60ml of BB last week, so I'll probably have enough until it's back in stock. I'll be ordering more for sure when it comes back online, though, even if that happens tomorrow.

Just got gorilla and bb today also for the first time.

Gorilla is good straight away, but I guess I'll stash em for a week or two and really let them impress me. So far I am, they are good now.

Tried to go back and order more, and yes they are out. Damnit
