It's getting harder and harder to find new juice companies that impress me... There are only so many flavoring companies and decent flavor combinations out there... As I come up on 2 years of vaping, I feel like I am at the point where I have 10+ places where I like to get my juices from... sounds like a lot of places... but there are a 100+ places these days... and it gets increasingly harder to add to that list of "try agains" and keepers... and I'll name those other vendors so that you can determine if my review/tastes will sync with your tastes... Backwoods Brew, want2vape, alien visions, puresmoker, primevaping. vaperite, halo, TW, nitelite and LiquidXpress... Props top a few more like... iVape, digitalcigzz, vapelicious etc... but these are my main places...

My Buddy water+fire here on ECF sent me a present...
It was a 30ml bottle of "House Blend" from Copper Creek.
He really wanted me to try it...

It's their signature "mystery" juice... that "je ne sais quoi" ( I don't know what it is) flavor... shades of vanilla, or chocolate... maybe cake batter and caramel... but not too sweet... not in your face flavor... (Hey Aaron... not in your face flavor... so don't bother ;-)

Copper Creek specializes in VG blends... I think the most PG you can get is 40%...
They use good flavorings... many are organic and natural flavorings... no flavourart... no oils...
Like the Vaperite organics, you are going to get minimum to moderate throat hit... tons of vapor and deep satisfying flavor....

I am really really impressed with Copper Creek.

One other thing that impresses me is that like my buddy don at BWB, she is adding flavors slowly... the menu of flavors is a bit eccentric and short at the moment... tried and true blends... not approximate flavors... but good flavors...
AT the moment, there is only ONE tobacco flavor... more are in the works...

The tobacco flavor they have is called twisted tobacco...
Water+Fire gifted me again... and I am just trying it now...
It's a sweeter, creamier tobacco flavor... reminds me a bit of Vaperite's ORGANIC RY4 and Primevaping's new LT without the bright sugary finish...
It's not a complex tobacco flavor and I cannot determine how it is concocted.. it's not a robust, authentic tobacco... but rather a mellow, subtle tobacco... and it is fairly muted by the other flavors... in any case, it is satisfying and it works...

I have also tried CC's espresso... and it was excellent... much like vaperite's.

I have three more flavors on the way... should be here tomorrow.

In conclusion... Copper Creek is a must try company if you are a Vaperite fan...
I also think BWB, want2vape, vapelicious, nitelite and AV fans will like it a lot. It is very high quality VG juice at a very reasonable price...

I think the house blend is a must try for anyone who likes clean, sweet juices...

A+ for Copper CReek.

Thanks for the review. I had my eye on them but ended up soending my vape allowance this month on another vendor. I think I'll check em out.

I'm interested on the TH of the Twisted Tobacco, is is mild like their special blend? I've found I still like a decent TH in my juice. I've tried juice from VaporRenu and found that their Th just isn't enough for me.

Thanks again for the review.

not a lot of TH... but lots of vapor... fills the throat... but doesn't "hit" so hard...

and I don't see anything about 'Organic' or even 'Natural'.

mmm... I checked the thread in the supplier section... says 100% natural flavorings... I think I got "organic" from an email with her or a friend... thanks for calling me on that - Hopefully someone will post about that... I'll check my facts ;-)

From what I understand, Flying V (the owner of Copper Creek) was (and still is) an herbalist before she started making eliquids. Makes sense that she would want to go organic whenever possible. Sort of comes with the territory for those of us who are "alternative practitioners" from the fringe subculture.

Initially, I wasn't thrilled with Twisted Tobacco, but it's getting better every time I try it. There's still an odd side flavor that I'm not fond of, but it's diminishing some as the juice matures. Steeping time obviously helps. As Last Tango writes, the throat hit on my 18mg TT is definitely less than average. Present, but gentle rather than strong. However, the flavor and overall vaping experience of the juice are quite substantial.

House Blend is another of those rare and magical but impossible-to-pin-down mystery juices. Like Boba's. Well, not "like it," but you know what I mean---same mystery category.

Chocolate Chip Cookie seems very accurate to me, more so than KBV's Troll Bridge Cookie. Troll Bridge is richer, but CCC is more precise. On the other hand, Chocolate Ice Cream strikes me as a major misfire. The chocolate is there, but the ice cream part of the juice isn't even close. I don't know what it is, but it's not even remotely ice cream-like. This is the first ice cream juice I've bought, so I don't know if other vendors' ice cream attempts are better.

I'm also having a hard time getting my head around the two Copper Creek danish juices I have---Blackberry Danish and Raspberry Danish. Again, the fruits come through OK, but the danish part---presumably sweet cooked dough, glazed icing, and cream cheese---are very muddled to my palate. Maybe I'll grow to like them, but not yet.

On the other hand, Coffee is terrific. Sweet, dense, and mouth-filling flavor. Unique rather than an accurate replica, but it reminds the brain of the experience of coffee with sugar and a bit of cream. Wonderful.

Cool... what do you like?

I've been pickier lately and mostly vaping menthols... the house blend was a nice break.

your reviews turned me on to bwb when i first started last november. since then i sorta followed to kickbass, vaperite, and a few others.
this cc house blend came today and straight out of the gate i know i'm going to like it more in a week or two. clean, subtle, and nice flavor.

Hi everyone. I have been reading the forum reviews for a year now, but just registered yesterday, primarily to post reviews for Copper Creek, Vapealicious and Prime Vaping. These 3 have became my go to vendors after a year of trying everyone else.(TW, Halo, JC, BWB, VB, Vaperite, VR, Rawr, KBV, VV...etc., you get the idea, lol)

All the above had something I liked, but nothing I could seem to stick with more than once. Since then, I have come to adore Prime Vapings Nostalgia and Chill Out. I also have Strawberry and just ordered Kong's Vape and Last Tango. Vapealicious takes the "cake" with Gingerbread Trifle for me...and now Copper Creek.

So far I have ordered Sweet Tea with a hint Peach(the peach wasn't an option, but she added it for me per request), Sweet Tea with Apricot, House Blend, Coffee and Sarsaparilla all of which have been good. I also have samples of Apple Cider, Cake and Watermelon.

The Sweet Tea with Apricot is actually better than the one with peach.(and that one was yummy). I ordered 60pg/40vg 24mg. The vapor was of course excellent. The throat hit for me is great. But the taste is in my op, the best sweet tea flavor I have had. She doesn't put menthol in it like KBV. But that is good for me, menthol hurts my stomach. The apricot is not candied or overly sweet. It a natural fruit flavor. The tea, to me, tastes just like sweet tea. And since I drink sweet tea while vaping it, I had a good comparison. lol I am pretty sure I will have this one on hand all the time.

The coffee is just as stated...coffee with a touch of sweetness. I have the same mix as above. This is the first coffee I have tried that didn't taste like the bottom of a pot. I probably won't ordered it all the time, but it is a nice change.

House Blend is unexplainable. Same mix as above. I taste a hint of chocolate, but I have no clue what else is in there.(no one else is sure either, lol) It has characteristics of an everyday all day tobacco vape, without the tobacco. It is just a little sweet, so it is not something that you would get tired of. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an all day vape. I will say this. If you like PV Nostalgia, you will probably like House Blend. It is very similar minus the natural tobacco. I would order this again for sure.

Also, the prices are awesome!

I have to give Flying V kudos for everything she has came up with so far. Those Italian cooks know their stuff! ;)

I totally forgot...I have the regular Peach e liquid too! Oops. It is a natural peach flavor not candy. Just like biting into a peach. I also noticed something about this one right off the bat. The peach flavors I have had in the past have been a medium amber, orange colored. This one is very light in color. I really like this one as well and would order again.
