Let's all say it again... Come on, say it with me...

"Just Because a Vendor is Popular Doesn't Mean You're Automatically Going to Like Their juice."
Abso-posit-ootly. :blink:.. And inversely... just because a vendor is dickish, don't mean his juice isn't the nectar of the Gods. Ya' put up with the dickishness.

I don't know where you get the "no throat hit" from. What voltage and resistance are you use it at. What is the nic level. I use 18mg with a 2ohm carto at 4.2 volts or 8.5-9 watts. I get tones of TH.

As for the rest of the quote, I think that's exactly why I like it. It's kinda like a cigarette. It's not good are bad, but vary vapeable. Especially all day. I absolutely love it when I'm drinking beer.

Nic level is 6mg, VAMO V2 at 4 volts on a Puritank with 2.6Ω head. Maybe I need to try it again.

I got my first bottle a couple of days ago. I have the same opinion.

I guess I'll put it back and give it another try after it steeps for a while. I did LOVE their Hype flavor tho. It rocks.

I'm trying the steeping thing myself. Maybe it will be better after a couple of weeks.

what do the "tones" sound like 'cause I don't hear anything! and of course, it would taste better if you were using a provari.......

Just to double confirm, you got your Boba's Bounty from Alien Vision or Alien Vape?

The "original" Alien Vision Boba's is 100%VG, thus, the taste and throat hit takes a back seat.
Which makes it a wonderful ADV. The taste is subtle and the little nuances comes and goes. There is no accurate way to pinpoint the flavor as it differs from every vape and everyone.

And make sure to clean your atty everyday if using as ADV as VG gunk and leaves residue very quickly, they taste nasty!!!

Alien VISIONS.
 
Taste is subjective, but it is good to be able to read the details of others' experiences - and then decide for yourself to try or pass.
Personally, I have steered clear of any flavor that resembles a real cig (except for menthol, which ends up treated like vanilla extract when cooking - just a dash.) but its good to know that if my interest is sparked one day, I'll have ECF and all you sirs/ma'ams to turn to!

I must say I fell victim to the hype plus at the time it was so hard to get that it took me 3 weeks to get order
all the talk like its the holy grail

I must it was good, not great, not up to the hype, but good decent
also it does change over the first week or so 1st couple days taste kind of weird

but the thought hit was always there did you get it from alien visions?

I have read some posts about the alien vapor version lacking in thought hit

I have mine up for swap, message me if you have something I may like

I have tried Bobas Bounty, and it is just not for me...

I have an 18 ML bottle, of 18MG up for swap.

I LOVE tribecca, Heathers heavenly tobacco and other delicious RY4's the most.

I do not like black licorice, anise, menthol

Message me and see if we can arrange a swap.

I got 100 ml. 18 nic. 2 weeks tasted like crap 3 weeks the same, as soon as it steeped 1 month the flavors come out and it tastes much better at one point I thought about trading it. Is it to me the great ADV?? not yet but at least I can vape it now. I highly suggest to let it steep at least a month then you change your mind about it just like I did.

The bobiphany ...lol love it.

mine came after i ran it thru my quick steep jewelry cleaner and let it steep for a couple days.

At first vape straight outta the mail, i was very dissapointed. ran it thru a carto, aga-t2, igo-l and blech.

Then i figured it needed steeping, like every other juice i get.

Man, to me it's very complex, alot of subtle flavors coming out at various wattages. It's like having a different juice at the touch of a dial.

It's in my rotation, but I like flavors that kinda kick you in the mouth with little pondering as to the actual flavor. It does seem to hit a spot that no other flavor i have tried has hit. I never get bored of it.

just got my real boba's today. fresh out of the mail, i'm very satisfied with it, if its gets better, t'll definately be an all day vape for me.
wanna really be disappointed, order from alien vapors by mistake. i was so excited when it came in, vaped it and yuck, i've thrown up in my mouth and it tasted better!
but, taste is very subjective from 1 person to the next. gotta try stuff for yourself and not base decisions on what others like/dislike.

Just remember, to clean clean clean your atty / coil daily!!! Old burnt VG gunk can really kill!! LOL!!

Knock on wood, but I get at least a week to a week and a half with Boba's in my cartos.

I use 2.0 ohm Smoktech cartos in a pyrex Smok carto tank @ 3.8 volts on a Provari. I leave the factory-drilled hole alone and punch a second hole on the opposite side. I use the drip/flick method for priming.

I rarely if ever get flooding or wicking issues. I guess I'm just lucky.

I disliked it at first, I remember ordering it when I was hopping around looking for a regular place to get e-liquid.

Tasted, disliked it and shelved it, but after a few days I actually missed the flavor so I kept an extra carto (Back when bogue was a decent brand) to swap out whenever I got tired of my pineapple carto. I appreciate what it brings to the table but steeping definitely improves the experience.

Haven't been able to enjoy it recently, ever since AVE re-opened their juices seem too thick for my Vivi-Nova, the wick just chars way too quickly in comparison to other vendor VG juices.
