Let me start out by saying I dont necessarily condone shopping while not having a completely clear-thinking mind, but I also have to say that some of the coolest things Ive ever purchased have been while slightly (honestly, just slightly) inebriated.

Sometimes my inhibitions have to be lowered a bit in order for me to loosen my naturally tight grip on my own wallet (Im a notorious cheap-skate). Ive wanted some new juice for awhile . . . and tonight I was presented with the perfect opportunity to indulge my vaping lusts.

I purchased:
Lemoncello - Highbrow Vapor
Vanilla Bean Decadence - Highbrow Vapor
Orange De Sangre - Highbrow Vapor
Long Bottom Leaf - epipemods

Does anyone have any opinions about these?

Id also like to hear about some things you bought on a whim that turned out to be awesome purchases. :)
Have a great night everyone... enjoy your vapes!

I just received my order from Highbrow a couple days ago which happened to include:

Orange De Sangre and Blackberry Lemoncello

Man oh man...are these AMAZING right out of the box. I'm giving them a bit of time to steep (trying to anyway) after giving them a first taste but I KNOW I will be ordering in LARGE quantities in the near future. You are in for a really amazing vaping experience!!!

Long Bottom Leaf is nice as is their Shire Malt, let steep for about a week and they shine. Highbrow I don't know, I bought from them due to reviews here and as most times I buy due to reviews not one of them is any good even after steeping a month. YMMV
Cool... good to know!

Awesome, I can't wait! I heard they were both really good.

I just received my first order from HighBrow the other day as well. I got the Orange de Sangre...amazing right out of the box! I was hesitant on that one, because I'm not a huge orange "flavor" fan, but I do love fresh squeezed OJ, and thats exactly what it tastes like. Very fresh! I ordered his other vanilla, which is the Vanilla Bourbon Bean...it smells fantastic, but I thought the flavor was a little weak. Its only be a few days though, so I am going to give it some time. I know he gives the option for extra flavor, but I did not opt for that.

As for other juices I bought on a whim....I would say Love Potion from Rawr Vapors. It was a juice I had never heard anything about, and I was on the Rawr site picking up another juice I read about...saw Love Potion and just tossed it in my cart. WOW....I can say I am in LOVE with that juice. Its a mix of fruits, but I can't pinpoint which ones, almost like a fruit punch. I did get it slightly mentholated...its just awesome, great fresh summer vape.

Now that sounds tasty! For some reason the whole 'unknown fruit with a touch of menthol' just sounds so refreshing right now.

I'm starting to notice that I really enjoy juices that most can't put a finger on what the flavor is. I still enjoy the simple juices that are obvious flavors of fruit, tobacco, baked goods, etc., but I am really intrigued by juices that not only have non-descript names, but are almost impossible to guess the ingredients that make up the final flavor profile.

If that is what you are looking for check out Mountian Oak Vapors....they have a fruit line each one named for aseason with a nice minty menthol hit. For example Summer Rain...is a light citrusy, melony flavor with a refreshing menthol twist...very nice!!!

You might want to check out ECBlends -- very affordable prices, and some truly terrific juices! I am a raving maniac now for their White Peach ala Zoe -- truly wonderful, fresh peach flavor, with a hint of vanilla or white chocolate. Also love their Espresso Shot (wonderful dark smokey espresso) and their Black Magic (warm lovely tobacco with honey).

Oh boy . . . you are in for a TREAT!! I originally ordered the OdS and the Limoncello "on a whim," thinking I would only use them anyway to tweak certain flavors I already had. WRONGO!! :laugh: They are unbelievably authentic and delicious (I always let mine steep a few weeks, but even right out of the mail box they are delicious!) They are now on my "standing order" list for Highbrow. :)

I also got the Vanilla Bourbon Bean, and let it steep. It is delicious as well, but I already have a true vanilla I prefer, and when I want a "complicated" vanilla, nothing beats Bounty Hunter for me!

:) In that case, I think you need to try NiteLiteVapor's new releases, Gold and Twilite. Gold is already threatening to become the ECF 2012 Juice of the Year! (IMHO) :D

I LOVE Bounty Hunter . . . definitely my favorite thus far. I'll look into Gold and Twilight, haven't been to the NLV site in a while and didn't even know they had new juices!

I'm pretty darn excited for the Highbrow juices as they have been getting pretty excellent reviews. I have so many juices I want to try its not even funny. I'm considering buying a good atomizer so I can try dripping (never have before) to try out sample bottles of a bunch of new juices. Right now I use a tank so the little sample bottles have to pretty much be used up right away. I definitely like switching flavors frequently!

Huummm sounds interesting...what are they like? Fruity menthol?


Aaack, NO! :lol: The Gold is a delicious honey/toffee tobacco, and the Twilite is an unsweet, straight tobacco with a slight smoky twang and a slight citrus/lemon peel note. (OK, so that's a fruit. :D But it's just the slightest undertone! :))

I've been promising to do a proper review of those two juices. I really need to get on that . . . :unsure:

Let me know if you do, I'd be interesting in reading it. Sounds like you have some pretty good taste buds and can pick up on the subtleties of the flavors.

Definitely try it...its awesome! You can vape just one or mix it up! Its really great...I say go for it ASAP!

Cool, next order I'll try out an atomizer. What atomizer would you recommend for dripping? Can I drip at any voltage? Can you tell I've never dripped before? :laugh:

Sorry for the triple post but DEAR LORD . . . Orange De Sangre is hands-down, the most accurate, flavorful, and all around best tasting vapor I've ever tried. My jaw hit the floor with my first puff and I just started laughing at how amazingly real this tastes. How the hell did he do this? I'm stunned. Haven't tried Limoncello or Vanilla Bean Decadence yet. The only slight downfall I see is vapor production . . . but then again I'm used to mostly 100% VG.

I already have a plan . . . 70% Orange De Sangre with 30% Vanilla Bean Decadence sounds like it could be a pretty damn good Orange Julius (one of my all-time favorite things to drink).
