Heart, I can't tell ya about the Caramel Apple cause mine came in a solid white jug (it was when they ran out of 120ml bottles), so I can't see the liquid. I received my Strawberry Cheesecake today...I was figuring it would be a light pink color but actually looks more light orangish from what I could tell. I'll try and remember to keep my eye on it to see how it changes.

Holy crap! I just received my order and tried some ry5. It was awesome right out of the mail but, It is the darkest juice I have ever vaped. I am thinking it might have steeped for awhile before shipping? Is the date on the bottle the actual birth date of the juice or, is it the date it was poured from a bigger bottle made earlier, into a small bottle for shipping? Has your guys Ry4 came dark dark out of the mail?

I've got a 30ml bottle of CoffeeX sitting here dated July 30th. Its a rich, brown color and is sooooo good.

I recently ordered a LOT of 10ml bottles of various juices that I wanted to try, but I usually don't bother with these little bottles. And steeping is the reason. Usually the minimum size I order is 30ml because after its steeped, and if I really like it, I'm going to run out of it before I can get more and let it steep too. Even 30ml really isn't big enough.

I'd suggest if you've tried a small bottle of something and liked it, that you order at least a 30 to 60ml bottle to age and then use - while you order another bottle to be aging.

If you find a flavor that you really do love, get 120ML. I ordered a 60ML bottle of Cappuccino Smooth. Now that it has finally steeped, I have 10ML left. :facepalm: Luckily, I was wise enough to get a 120ML bottle and it is steeping nicely.

We don't all have the same willpower of TexasT. I mean, he isn't even wearing a jacket in his avatar picture. He's shirtless! It's cold out T!

This is normal there are a few fsusa juices thin mint, WE, RY4, RY5 all come as a very dark brown color and with aging will come near to being black.

Yep, my WE and RY4 are brown but the RY5 is like you said almost black. Which is why I was wondering about the date on the bottle. Is that date the real true day it was mixed? Had this juice been aged because of how dark it is? Did I get some of the GOLD LABEL stuff? Because it is tasty right out of the mail! I can't think of words for what it tastes like yet.

Whenever I get a new bottle of RY5, it's almost black. Personally, I love it right out of the mailbox! But, it does continue to get better and better over time.

Can anyone tell me what color Bilberry turns, if it does? I received a bottle a couple of days ago and it is clear. I seemed to remember reading somewhere that it really needs to steep a long time.
I wonder that also. I've had a 10ml bottle and its about three weeks old and it is still clear. I tasted it and well, it is not ready to vape. Will check again in a month or so.

It would be awesome to get photographs of 'well-steeped' juices.........

Are all of the sampler sizes well aged? They all seem to be the perfect color that goes with their names. have been using this as a reference to what bigger bottles should look like. Am I making the wrong assumption?

:)

My attempt to help.

Not a wrong assumption due to the samplers already being steeped when they ship them its a great idea. ;)


Here is a bubble gum tester (which is aged/steeped) and a new 30ml premixed (not aged/steeped.
*Note: both are 24mg and 50/50 mix.
