Can someone please help? Im in a real fix. UK laws have forced my e-juicesupplier to have it made in the UK and the replacementwhich are supposed to taste the same dont, they taste terrible!.
I was a sixty a day cigarette smoker for almost fifty years, because of health problems I decided to give-up-smoking so threw my remaining couple of cartons in a cupboard and started vaping. In that year I have not looked back, (until now), I tried electronic cigs when they first came out but couldnt get on with them so gave up. Just over a year ago I tried many different flavours to find I didnt like any of the fancy flavours, being an heavy smoker I wanted the juice to taste as close to real cigarettes as possible. I eventually found
Socialites V-Blend which is a hand-rolling tobacco flavour and I love it. I was surprised I liked it because I smoked tailor made and never rolled my own. I have tried other flavours when vaping with friends but found I only like the V-Blend. If you asked me to describe what V-Blend tastes like I couldnt!.. Unfortunately because of the new UK laws socialites have started having juice made in the UK and it tastes terrible!.. So Im now in a real fix.
Im confined to a wheelchair with multiple sclerosis and have other health issues including chronic lung disease so cant get out to taste different juices. My personal care assistant visited Socialites Norwich, to purchase my usual six bottles of V-Blend e-juice when she was advised they are no longer available in 15ml bottles but are available in the new 10ml bottles, which are now produced in the UK but in a cleaner environment. My care assistant was
assured the juice was exactly the same formula and would taste no different. It does not, it tastes very different and gives a nasty after taste, it also tastes very oily/greasy!..
The colour is also much lighter in the new product. The remaining five 10ml new bottles will be returned to Socialites, (
but I only have three bottles of the old stock left)
I phoned Socialites who promised to phone me back but they didnt so I emailed them a few days ago but still no reply.. I was advised because of the new rules all future juice will be made in the UK, they added it should have tasted exactly the same but admitted they have had many other complaints in regard to both the taste and the unfriendly bottles they are now using. I could not get the juice out of the bottle; I resorted to cutting the top off and decanting it into one of the old bottles.
But my biggest problem by far is the taste of the new product which I can only describe as Very, Very NASTY!.. I asked them if they had any old stock or if they could supply the old juice but was told no, but she would pass on my feedback and get someone to call me. Im surprised Socialites havent been more helpful I have been a good customer and must have recommended thirty or more customers.
Can anyone recommend any tobacco flavoured juices? Has anyone used socialites V Blend? Which is a hand-rolling tobacco flavour and found anything comparable?
I have used an itaste MVP for a year and Im very happy with it all I need now is an e-juice I can get on with!.. After a year of vaping, I do not want to start smoking again, neither my health nor pocket can afford it.
Sorry for the long post but wanted to give as much info as possible.
