In general they taste the same but to me the 8 mg just tasted a little better, and since I could go either way...

Nic does have a taste to it so the higher nic level a juice gets, yeah it can taste different...
How is the taste different? More flavor? Different fusion of flavors? I am curious to know. Is it worth trying now or waiting till I am down to 8mg ejuice?
Even though I am a 16mg vaper the lowest I usually do is 12mg, I was thinking of ordering the 8mg with the Iatty 2. But it I didn't. Maybe in a couple of months when I am down to 8mg juices. :p
Have you tried the CoV Waffle? Know other in your face ejuices?

I haven't tried any other COV juices yet! To me there was more butterscotch flavor to the 8 mg than the 16, can only guess its because the 16 has more nic and nic does have its own flavor. I usually don't go as low as 8 mg myself but Its ok for one or 2 of my juices.....I am someone that uses many different juices at once, not just one juice all the time, so its ok if some are a little lower and some are a little higher....but for the most part, I like most of them to be around 12

Was going to order the Butterscotch today till I saw it contains Diacetyl. Too bad they can not find an alternative flavor which is Diacetyl free.:(

Wow I did not know it has diacetyl. That is a new update. Thanks for the heads up. Do you know when this information became public?

Aaron, no idea when it went up, but it's on the Buterscotch page now. Thankfully they are being honest. So many try to just hide the issue, or ignore it, or won't pay for testing of their flavorings. Usually that's one of my first inquiries of vendors for certain flavors. Caramel, Butterscotch, Custards and such, anything on the creamy side. I know it's suppossedly just a trace but I'd rather have zero. I'm sure I already inhaled more than my share from microwave popcorn which I also don't touch anymore. That's one reson I like the idea of AEMSA American E-Liquid Manufacturing Standards Association. I wish all vendors would jump on that bandwagon. It would also be very helpful when the FDA gets involved which will happen eventually. I'm all for Mom and Pop vendors but I also would like to have some quality and safety assurances. I don't know if you saw any of the FDA meeting yesterday but when the gentleman from AEMSA spoke of roughly 7000 vendors in the united states (I think it was 7000) and then he said only about 18 were members of the organization, it looked bad in my eyes and I'm sure the FDA felt the same. We'll just have to see how this all plays out down the road. We really need to police ourselves, or for sure, THEY will.
But as a side note I am bummed that I can't try COV's Butterscotch. You made it sound just like what I am after.

What aspects of the juice interest you? Not sure which aspects if I know I can recommend you something. I wrote an update post and linked to your comment. Thanks for the info. I feel really bad. Did I do the update right? Is there anything I am missing? Have there been any studies done on diacetyl and vaping? I eat microwaved popcorn many times a week. Should I stop? I hear they removed it but I am going from wikipedia which I trust less then helpful commenters :p. Thanks for pointing this out to me. :)

Hey Aaron, don't feel bad. Really we are all still learning. I actually am going to give DIY a shot again with suppossedly diacetyl free flavorings. I was hooked on a caramel from one vendor for a while and then one day I go to order and there was a diacetyl warning. Vendors are coming around although kinda slow.

Studies?? Probably not. Too early in the game for any of them to be done. All I know is inhaling diacetyl fumes for extended periods caused irreversible lung damage. That's enough to keep me away from it. Why tempt fate?
