Anyone else have inconsistent flavors of bobas from alien visions? The first one I got was awesome. Nutty, caramely, graham crackery goodness. I got an 18ml at 12mg. The next one I got was SOOOOOO spicy, it was unvapable! Got this one 30ml at 12mg. It literally burned my lips when I vaped it. It burned my throat and mouth on the inhale and the same on the exhale to include my nose. Anyone have this happen to them?


Boom goes the dynamite!

Hey there fellow Okie! Man, there's something wrong with your batch for sure. I expect some variation between batches, especially depending on the bottle size, but never "spicy". I would email them for an exchange.

I've noticed this as well. I usually go through this stuff pretty quick. I order 60ml's of BB and Gorilla Juice at 24mg, but as of late only ordered a 30ml of each and still half left of each bottle and this was over a month ago.

I thought it was my tastes changing since quitting smokes, but seems we are not alone and Ben swears the recipe is exactly the same. It went from a 9.5-10 down to a 6.5-7 for me. Wish I stocked up when they came back online after the close. Just wanted everyone to get a chance to grab their juice. Wish I was more selfish, just couldn't do it.

I've never gotten it spicy before... But it would seem that every bottle is a bit different. But not in a bad way... Sometimes it's a bit more nutty, which I like... Sometimes a bit more creamy caramel which I like... But never spicy... Are the other expected flavor notes still there? I guess what I mean is, does it taste like BB at all? LoL... Maybe you got a misprinted label?

I can taste the undertones. My only guess would be that they use alcohol to cut their nicotine and they either used to much or not enough. i was looking at their other flavors (as far as tobacco juices) and i dont see one that would give the cinnamon style flavor that this has.

Whats goin on, I did email them and am going to send it back for a new batch. I was very dissapointed in this one. i let it sit for about 3 days with the cap off and it is still burns.

When i spoke with Christine at alien visions she stated that there was nothing she could think of in the ingredients for boba's that would make it spicy. I mailed it back yesterday so should be getting a new bottle next week. I also ordered some Tribeca. Tryin out all the online faves. lol

How long have you been vaping? Something that happened to me about a month after I started was that some of the juices I started out with and really loved were no longer the same to me. I think it's because my sense of taste/smell sharpened themselves since I no longer smoke cigs. I can taste even the smallest minute details to the juice, which is a good thing in many cases and not a good thing in others. Some juices that I absolutely LOVED when I first started and can no longer vape are:

Cotton Candy from MBV(And it was so tasty...but now just tastes blech to me!)
Wild Cherry from MBV
Cinnamon Roll from MBV
Anything with berry flavoring.

Most of the juices I had in the beginning were from MBV because I used them exclusively at first. I'm branching out now. Hoping this flavor adjustment doesn't repeat itself because I'm really loving some of the new liquids I'm getting.

HAven't tried Boba's, however.
