Green Apple: love this. very clean taste. ive been vaping this more than anything else in my collection.

Applewood tobacco: i bought this because of all the nice reviews, but my opinion on it is a little mixed. first, i think he did a fantastic job in imitating the taste of real smoking. you get that thick, dark feel. it's an achievement in itself. but sadly, this is also my problem with it. its too close to real smoking in that i feel as though im puffing on an spongy, ashy cigarette. unless it's 100% like the real thing, you end up with something like a wet version of the real thing. though it's unpleasant for me, i'm sure it's good for some other people. :)

Menthol Tobacco: this is pretty much like the applewood, except in menthol. again, the taste is eerily genuine, but not quite. i suppose it's a love/hate thing. i kind of have this strange fear that he might be using real tobacco ash to get this flavor. hope this isnt true.

overall: guy is pro at making e-juice. ill be buying the green apple again for sure.

I have found that the longer applewood steeps the better it becomes, I'm not sure how long you waited before posting your review but sometimes it's better with certain juices to give them more time.
Certain juices I like out of the mailbox and love after a week or so, whereas some juices I am not a fan of out of the mailbox and turn into my all day everyday vape after its steeped.

thanks, i am interested in non tobacco flavors too ... from BWB of course.
I have VB Green Apple because someone raved... yet it isn't as strong as i was hoping... i am leery of trying things on people's recommends so i would get a small sample ....

If you want a good "unlike smoking" tobacco BWB flavor you should try Honey FLue Cured... it's pretty heavenly.... light with a hint of sweet honey, good TH and just a hint of tobacco.

just goes to show how different everyone taste buds are!

not only that, taste buds seem to change too. anyhow, maybe one day i'll develope a taste for the bwb tobacco line-up. besides the taste though, does anyone know what he is using to get that musky cigarette flavor? it's very unique, and i hope it's not real ash in there.

I love Don's Malty, Malty Toffee, Honey Flue Nut and all of his coffees. Can't go wrong with those.

I highly recommend the strawberry. I'm extremely picky when it comes to sweet/fruit vapes. This one actually tastes like a fresh strawberry. There's no artificial taste whatsoever. It's not an overpowering sweet taste but refreshing, just like a real strawberry.

I forgot to write this earlier, make sure to let it steep for a week or two. It sucks having to wait but the flavor does mature and taste much better

I thought I would chime in again. After saying that the 555 was unvapeable I decided to re-visit it after letting it set for 3 weeks. All I can say is WOW!!!! It made an amazing change, and pretty much chain vaped 10ml in a day and a half. I will be placing another order for this, and trying to let it sit for at least a week.

BWB is the most steep changing juice, I love reviews like this that start with how bad something is and then come back with how great the same thing is.

Now that I know what I like from BWB...I order some in advance so I can let it steep for at least a couple of weeks. The stuff is great, however, everyone needs to know that most of them need a little time to "mature". Like many have said, if you open it as soon as you get it and don't really care for it...give it a little time to steep and then revisit it. It's great advice that I have taken too. IMO...Applewood=awesome! Virginia= a subtle sweetness to this tobacco flavor that tastes great. and Casablanca=an interesting cocoa experience. I'm waiting on the Vanilla to steep.

That 'musky' flavor IS quite unique!! It sets his tobacco apart from all others.

I've had two 30mL bottles of BWB sitting in my fridge. One is 555, the other is Nutty. They've been "steeping" for the better part of a month. They still both taste like cotton candy. Both are too sweet. Suffice it to say, I've been through two more suppliers and settled on one of them. In my two years of vaping, I've never had to let my juice "steep". I understand BWB is made to order but when I order juice its because I need it when it gets here, not a week (or a month, or two months) later. Having said that, make no mistake that I appreciate what he is doing over there at BWB, and its obvious he has his fans... I unfortunatly, just cant be one of them.
Im not trying to bash BWB and this post might sound a bit negative, so let me finish on a good note: If my preference was sweet tasting juice, BWB would be awsome. I just cant get over that part. The second awsome thing about BWB juice is the wonderful amount of vapor his juice produces.
