Since the juice is so well liked - wonder why they cant make enough for all of us............

My Boba's Bounty has steeped for 17 days now. I decided to give it a try. I'm not getting it. I want to love it, but it's nothing special. When does the magic start? I have the real McCoy from Alien Visions.
Do I need to do something? Does it need to steep longer? I'm using a variable voltage eGo. I've tried all three settings. Help!
^^ It simply may not be your cup o' tea. I have it, I vape it, but it's definitely not my favorite all time juice. It's a solid, good juice, but I am with you on the "when does the magic start" lol. That seems to be with a lot of things though. I read about certain mods/flavors/atty's etc, get REALLY excited, try them and am like, "yea, it's pretty good...". There hasn't been anything I have tried, juice or otherwise that has completely blown me away. I like my Chi&Igo-w with some Upside Down or Creamy Cocoa, but even with that combo I am not in vaping Heaven lol.
My only problem with Bobas is that ever since I started vaping it a few months ago, I don't really care for other juices anymore

I would think that's a good thing! You've found what you like and you don't have to tinker around and spend money on something you may not like
I just ordered Boba's and Gorilla Juice for the 1st time today. I hope I like them because I got the 30ml bottles. I haven't found that "Whoa" juice yet but I'm still fairly new at this.
I didn't really like BB when I first tried it as I immediately thought it tasted like vaping a raisin. However over time I am appreciating it a lot more. Hard to put my finger on it but it's very complex and simply delicious!
Honestly, to me BB and Gorilla Juice taste EXACTLY the same. I don't taste the bananas in GJ. Strange. Maybe it needs some steeping...
Good to see I am not the only one who can't seem to taste the bananas in GJ. (I guess)
By the way I made a delicious mistake. I intended to top off my carto of BB but by mistake I topped off my carto containing Halo Tribeca with BB. HOLY CRAP.
BB and Tribeca make an insanely TASTY combo. I am going to experiment with this combination but I find a 50/50 blend to be superb.

BB is best described as your third through fifth cigarette of the day. Remeber how special those were? Neither do I, but I had them every day for over 40 years for some reason.
BB Taste? I can't recall seeing anyone rave-on about it's taste. Some taste raisin or coke or oatmeal while most taste graham cracker, but unless you really hate one of those flavors, it's pretty inoffensive. I didn't care for it at all until my third vape at it. Then I didn't care one way or the other. It took me weeks before I figured out what I think it tastes like. It drove me crazy that I found the taste "soothing" and/or "comfortable" Those are terms of psycholgy, not taste--wth? Somehow it was primoreal for me. Then it struck me. It is the taste of my first self-administered hand-to-mouth habit--pablum.
So if it ain't the taste, why are so many drawn to it?
For me, and I think most others, it stands alone as a great pacifier. That is, as a long time smoker, it plugs just about every receptor.
It has a light but decent TH.
Good vapor cloud production.
Vapor has "feel" in the mouth and lungs.
It's slow to gunk coils.
After the first week, it always tastes the same (for me anyway) and the taste dosen't diminish.
Strangely, it somehow has umami.
When the "need" arises, It can be chain vaped almost endlessly without deadening the tastebuds to other flavors.
If only I could find a vape with all those attributes and a taste I want...
I'm just glad that it works for me.

No, Boba's has a touch of tobacco flavor but it has other flavors which just can't be figured out. It does grow on you, I mix it with my caramel and love it!
I just got my first bottle, And... It's all right 
I don't hate it! I'll give it some time to steep and re-evaluate.

Keep us posted
I don't dislike BB or GJ, but I don't love them either. I do however find myself gravitating back to them for some reason or another when others just don't seems to be doing it for me. Its a lil odd. I can't quite place why, but they just work.
To me BB and GJ taste extremely similar but with BB having a slight raisin taste to it and GV having a slight banana taste. I do prefer GV of the 2 tho because it reminds me of a dried banana type of snack my mother used to make.
I will add that out of the mail its OK. Its vapable, but after a few days/weeks of letting it age makes a big difference.

I got GJ in a swap and thought "well, don't expect much but I guess I'll give it a try". Loaded the tank, first couple of draws....banana baby food or banana taffy, kinda fake tasting a little". I let it sit in my tank and over 2-3 days, I'd take a few draws here and there, then all of a sudden...WHAM!!!!! 
R U frickin kidding me?????...This stuff is crazy good, AMAZEBALLS good!!!! I taste the tobacco, but its unique. A slight honey taste (I usually hate honey), slight graham cracker and hint of banana. Now I've asked in other threads, does anyone who has tried GJ, set at higher volts to get a nice warm vape, taste McDonald's hot apple pie??????? I know, it's banana in GJ, but seriously, the honey/banana mix taste like Mc D's apple pie filling and the graham cracker and whatever else in this stuff, tastes like that yummy, crispy crust.
Maybe I'm nuts. But that Mc D's apple filling is kind of a diff taste and I get that from GJ as well. But then again, haven't had one of those apple pie things in like 10 yrs, maybe the taste has changed.
Bottom line, I'm HIGHLY addicted to this stuff, I'm super mad cuz I need more and didn't know until now AVE is out. This juice grabs you and won't let go, but needs steeped and taste better every day it sits in your tank. So the last of it in the tank is the BEST then your out.
