Bwb enters the garden

[FRANKSTER]

By garden, I do not mean the garden of Eden.

I have never in my nine weeks of vaping ever waited with such eager anticipation than I did for this juice. I purchased 3 10 ml bottles of:
Honey-flu
Honey-flu-nut
555

I wanted to also get the joker, Casablanca and the ry4, but they were out of stock. I did not want the malty, apple wood or the cherry tobacco based on a review by pbousardo who stated that these 3 tasted like rubber on the exhale so I avoided them. Still, I had to try this juice, everyone raves about it considering bwb the best house for juice.

I had to give it a try. Well, they came today...I dripped the 3 juices into 3 different atties and I got that floral taste...The same taste I got from blue-mist vapor and from velvet vapor...25 juices, all with this floral taste and smell.
I also topped of 3 cartos and I cannot taste the difference between them.
My humble apologies to bwb and to all the people who consider their juice great, but I got flowers.

I tasted no tobacco
no honey
no nut. I cannot tell one from the other. I am very disappointed but that is my subjective opinion on this juice.
If you like tobaccos with this taste, by all means this is the place to go. If on the other hand you want a juice that taste like tobacco, I'm sorry, this is not the house to go to.

I will however let them steep for as long as possible and then revisit them. I will say it a hundred times, a tobacco should not smell and taste like a flower. It is like ordering a steak with ice cream on top...there is no connection.

Now, please bwb people, do not be outside my house with torches, This is just a newbie's subjective opinion on this.

I would like to hear from anyone who has had this problem with bwb. And please people, let's keep this thread on the juice, and not me.

The above post is for day 1

Day 2, The juice is getting better...it is vapable, but still has the floral taste...It taste better also, but I still cannot taste the difference between the 3. Also, I do not even recognize the taste, but it taste good. Go figure

I ordered a bunch of BWB juices many months ago and awaited their receipt with equal anticipation. When they arrived I immediately tasted each and was duly disappointed. They didn't taste floral to me, but more of a grassy/woody flavor for the tobacco's. So I put them away for a week and tried them again. Still a no go. A month later, I was still unimpressed. I tried them last month for the final time, they've been steeping for about 9 months, and I've decided that they just ain't my cup 'o tea. Lots of people love them, but I can't vape them.

I only have them one day so I am going to wait and see...which flavors did you try?

Thanks for the post

For about a week or 10 days, I've had
Malty
Malty Toffee
Vanilla Bean
Strawberry
Menthol Strong

The only one that tastes ok is Malty. The rest taste like nothing. In a dual coil 1.25 LR cartomizer, and dripping in an atomizer. Maybe I got a bad batch.

 

[csAdams]

let the juice steep and the floral taste goes away.
I think bwb taste more like tabacco then anything I've tried especial the menthol, it's the only juice I've tried that tastes like menthol and not mint. also ejoker is one of my favorites and malty is great for adding a little sweetness to other juice.

I have tried the cherry tobacco and the maple tobacco from bwb. I enjoy the cherry tobacco a lot, I did not taste any sort of floral taste. I thought it had a nice tobacco taste with a subtle hint of cherry. I vaped that right out of the box for about 8 days straight.

The maple tobacco, however, I don't like that much. I let that steep for almost two weeks. Upon immediately vaping that I could taste the floral you speak of. I didn't get much tobacco taste, and really haven't tasted any maple either. Maybe it is just my tastebuds, who knows.

I think the thing about bwb is that their juices are considered subtle as compared to a lot of other vendors out there.

I loved the 10ml malty toffee I tried so much,I got 2 more 30ml bottles the next week,the next month,I got 2 more.The first 60mls was delicious,couldn't vape it fast enough.The second 60mls has almost no taste-that's with 9 months in a desk drawer where its nice and cool.
I'm not a fan of applewood or bluebacco,the backo is not bad and the melonbacco is pretty good.The medium menthol is good!I didn't like menthol cigs,so this was a pleasant surprise and I carry 2 pv's everywhere I go and 1 always has menthol in it,"Its refreshing"as kramer would say

If you sense floral, try leaving it uncapped overnight, to evaporate some of the aromatics.

The Vanilla Bean and Menthol definitely need to steep a lot. I thought the same thing first time I tried them but after a couple weeks you'll taste them.

truthfully, I've been vaping for about a year now and I kinda thought the whole steeping thing was kinda um, I dunno know, ...pointless... That is until i ordered BWB...I received 5 bottles, maltty, casablanca, honey flu, backo,, and virginia and I tried all of them that first day I received them, and I didn't like any of them. So I caped them up and off to the "juices I don't like shelf" they went. About a week later i decided "what the hell" and I tried the honey flue again and I'll be damned if it wasn't AWESOME!!! So I got them all back out and now theres not one of those flavors I don't like....!! As a matter of fact I just got done ordering some more!!! but all the ones I really liked are outta stock....I'm not promising you'll like them after they sit for a lil while, but at least give them a chance!!! Now i'm Hooked!!!!

I've got maple tobacco, cherry tobacco, applewood, vanilla bean, and waffle. The vanilla bean tasted ok, but clogged my atty's. The waffle wasn't that great, I've had better from a couple of other vendors. The BWB tobacco's are just not my thing. That was my first, and last, order from them.

Thanks for the info...I will let them sit with caps off and go back in a couple of weeks. If they taste the same, there is no point in trying there other tobaccos. One question...does your cherry tobacco and applewood have a rubber taste on the exhale?...this is what I heard...just curious

 

[SpiderMo]

steeping bwb juice is a must to get the best out of his juices, I have all you have listed and after letting steep for a few weeks they are GREAT!! Also the cherry tobacco is my favorite out of all Dons juices very good clean tobacco with a GOOD hint of cherry. Let us know after steeping how you like them.

By garden, I do not mean the garden of Eden.

I have never in my nine weeks of vaping ever waited with such eager anticipation than I did for this juice. I purchased 3 10 ml bottles of:
Honey-flu
Honey-flu-nut
555

I ordered these exact same juices from BWB a few months ago. I didn't get the floral taste, but I just didn't like them.

I was surprised since I do have some other 555's that are prety good and I like nutty flavors.

I agree, I purchased a 555 from e-liquid planet and it tasted nothing like this...not even close...that tasted like a tobacco with that nice crackling on the inhale...wish I had some.

As you have said and others, taste is so totally subjective, that said, I have not tasted rubber on the exhale with the Applewood (haven't tried Cherry Tob, yet). In fact, Applewood is one of my favorite BWB juices. I also concur with other posters who have suggested steeping the juices. It makes a world of difference, imo, especially with the tobacco juices. HTH!

 

[sandybeach]

Mine have been sitting since November 26 on the Malty Toffee, Peach, Strawberry, Menthol, and Vanilla Bean; and since December 1 on the Malty. Still not good

 

[markfm]

Are you getting a floral/alcohol taste, or just weak flavor? The ones I had with weak flavor just needed the couple weeks of sitting, while the floral/alcohol requires leaving the cap off the bottle overnight, just a night. (Same thing with my DIY vananaberry, it's very weak right off, at about 2 weeks the flavor really starts to pop.)

 

[sandybeach]

Just weak flavor.

Don at BWB uses a 306 LR atty with a drip tip to test his juices. I found that the 306 wakes them up and provides the flavor I was looking for. You might want to try that. It's always a good idea to use the hardware that the vendor uses for the best flavor.

I'm a Malty Toffee fan and I like Virginia and Applewood, also. Coming off tobacco is one of those times when your taste buds are deadened from smoking. If you are a recent convert to vaping, give it a while. When food starts tasting marvelous, vaping will, too.

I saw that some of you are recent members of ECF. When you first start vaping, it takes a while for your taste buds to recover from smoking cigarettes. While you are waiting for your taste buds to recover, Todd at www.vaperite.com does some organic juices that are, in my opinion, too tasty. Those might suit the taste of those who can't quite perceive the taste and flavor of vaping yet. His organic toffee is so strongly flavored that I need to cut it with another juice to tone it down. There's definitely no hint of flowery taste in Todd's organic juices. They are strongly flavored and there's no confusion about the flavor that you ordered.
