I ordered 3 different absinthes from different vendors, this was the first to arrive. It's love at first vape, this is a non-tobacco flavor I was looking for. I tried a few wintergreens and didn't care for any of them, one had a half-... licorice taste to it. I went through about 5 cherries with no luck.

This vape flavor is full blown black licorice. Not subtle and wimpy like licorice root tea. This is star anise/fennel type wow, not anything like anisette liquor though. I'm an herbalism buff and wonder if artemisia is included in this recipe like the real deal absinthe booze.

I'm giving it a solid solid 4. I wish it wasn't colored green like scope, otherwise it'd get another half star.

I'll try to remember do a follow-up when I try the other 2 absinthes, and whether I'm able to burn out on this. Right now, it seems to be satisfying something deep within, perhaps my inner lush who has not been fed in years.

I've tried a handful of absinthe and licorice juices... the DV flavoring was head and shoulders above others that I tried. Purfumer's apprentice does have a more than adequate flavoring as well. Vapesafe had a good VG licorice flavor... but I can't figure out what the %^$^% is going on with them... they made some of the best juices out there and they have practically disappeared. Ripple effect was amazing.

I usually just break down every few months and grab a bottle from Totally Wicked (which is DV)... lasts me a long time as I am only in the mood for the flavor once in a while.

Not any more :p They still have a bit of the line in discontinued products for a high discount but alot of the stuff is missing.There are a couple of new DV vendors or you can go right to the source and pay crazy shipping :)
