I was wondering if someone has the answer to questions I have on these 2 juices.

BWB Honey flu...The first time I purchased this juice and vape it out of the box, I hated it...I thought it was too floral, A week later and I thought it tasted much better.

I then traded someone for some bwb honey flu and the juice was about 5 months old and I think as this point it is the second best juice I have tasted thus far. I just received it again in a trade and it is 3 months old...just as great as the 5 month old. My question is...how long must I steep this juice to get it at a great stage?

My second juice is Vaperite's VR4...I only have this juice a week and I cannot quite get a handle on it. Sometimes it taste like just an average juice and then other times it taste on par with the honey flu. Again, does anyone know how long this juice should steep to bring out it's full potential? I think this juice taste the way I thought an ry4 was supposed to taste like.


I do not want to give up on this juice if I know that it will get much better with time. Any opinions will be appreciated.

I steep my juices for a minimum of 2 weeks. With Backwoods Brew juices, I don't even think about touching them until they have steeped for 6 weeks, especially the tobacco juices. The Vaperite VR4 should be a little quicker, around 2-4 weeks for full "bloom."

I like to taste the juices periodically as they mature to see what flavors come out at the different points in time. All part of the fun for me. :)

good to see you enjoying the BWB. i dont know how long to steep, sorry im not patient enough. but i did come in to say that if you like the BWB Honey Flue, you'll most likely enjoy the BWB Virginia. the Virginia is a little sweeter but i wouldnt call it a sweet juice at all.

Thanks for the info...I did not think the Virginia had any sweetness at all...I won't buy a straight up tobacco. I need a little sweetness...I have to check out the Virginia.

I would love to do what you do, but when the money is tight, it becomes difficult to do that. This is why I have this question because if I do not really like a juice, I will not buy it a second time. Thanks for the info, now I know I need to get more of the vr4...I have to remember what you said about bwb. Thanks

its got a bit of sweetness. i actually sweeten it up a little more most of the time with BWB Malty. some folks vape malty straight but for me its the killer additiave. it adds a bit of sweetness and multiplies your vapor exponentially. virginia + malty (just a few drops per ml) is an all day vape for me.

I have been doing the same thing with the honey flu...I add the honey flu to Vermillion's Kentucky prem and number 7 and it makes those 2 juices winners for me...Very good info for some straight up tobaccos.

IMO BWB should sit at least 4 weeks before using. Vaperite 2-3 weeks. BWB is best after 6 weeks.

See!? ;)

I really wish the Honey and Honey Nut Flue blends would come back in stock at BWB so I could at least try them. Every other BWB tobacco i have tried has been WIN. I have been lucky in getting many of my BWB juices from other members here, so they are always steeped to perfection straight from the mailbox. The ones that I have had to steep really changed over the 4-6 weeks.

I wouldn't dare touch my KY Premium blends, at least not yet. I've tried all but the vanilla, which I hear is outstanding, and the new Amaretto blend, but all the others have been just great. Not a bad one in the bunch IMHO.

Sounds like most of us in here are on the verge of going full on DIY! :evil:

I feel that letting the bwb steep for a few months is a double-edge sword. I know the flavor really comes out, but it seems the th is diminished. I have the 24mg which is their high mg. This is why I was adding the hf to the Vermillion Kentucky Premium at 26mg. The mix was great and I was able to get a decent th.

Does anyone have any ideas how to correct this problem?...I was thinking adding some WTA...anyone have any ideas?
