This may be true when it comes to the individual flavors. But it still seems to be in there lending it's smooth creamy sweetness to the overall mix. If it were real life (cooking) I'd say it was givng the whole thing texture.

Sometimes towards the bottom of a tank, I seem to get a little more actual cheesecake flavor. It's what prompted me to try mixing in some NY CC.

This is my experience with CCCC as well. It's like a spoon full of cheesecake in a caramel capp., instead of caramel capp. Baked in a cheesecake. Either way it is great.

My favorite taffy (although you didn't ask) is Peppermint. If you let the vapor linger in your mouth, you can feel a lump of taffy melting on your tongue. It also mixes great with the Chocolate Taffy (think York Peppermint Patty or Junior Mints.)

I got a 5ml of Peppermint Taffy in my last order. I haven't tried it yet, but it smells wonderful. I think I'm going to throw in a Spearmint Taffy in this order. I love the soft mint taste of spearmint.

Thanks, everyone, for all your fantastic recommendations! My cart is getting fuller and fuller, and I'm now WAY over budget! But I WILL be in vaping heaven well into the new year!

The big thing there was that it was an experimental mix. I think it might have been close to 50/50. I know Deej tweaked it -- it doesn't take a lot of coffee anything to make something taste like coffee.

Yeah there's a few flavors like that. I think coconut may be another.

If he wanted to come up with another that tasted more like cheesecake, I'd say keep the original and maybe call it something like "Dreamy Cappucreamy" LOL. Then he could add more cheesecake to it and call that one the CCCC.

By the way, for the newcomers, no one has talked about flavor load.

100% is mixed to Deej's personal preference for vaping. He likes a very light and subtle taste. Most people go for 125%-150%. I've been happy with 125% but I'm vaping at 4.5V than I used to so I've been opting for 150% for the lighter flavors. The stronger flavors (Apricot/Raspberry Cheesecake, Tiramisu, etc.) are still great at 125%.

Also, Deej doesn't add sweetener (which I like because sucralose doesn't like me.) As a result, his flavors never seem to get cloying. The bottom of the bottle is as light and sweet as it was at the beginning.

You can overcook a flavor. I spent a LOT of time with my Tiramisu the other day. I like very long drags and, after refilling my 3.5ml Vivi Nova a few times, the last half of the tank was a bit off -- still coffee-ish but not great. I tossed in some Tahitian Vanilla Taffy and have a scrumptious tiramisu/coffee milkshake. (When I finish this tankful, I'll rinse the tank. The next round should be as good as it was to start as the problem was me, not the liquid.)

ETA: And I'm notorious for thinking everything except the ARC and Peppermint Taffy need to be steeped for much longer than anyone else does. There are a few flavors like Bluemel Caraberry and Vanilla Cola that I disliked after a few weeks. I put them away, tried them again when I stumbled on the bottles more than a month later and have since reordered them.

I ordered everything at 150%, and from what I've tried so far, that's perfect for me. I've been using Kanger T3s lately, and while I love the performance of them, they sap the flavor quite a bit. These juices are the first ones I've had in quite a while that seem to have enough flavor for me! Yum!

If you like lemon you should try his lemonades. I've only tried a couple, Rasp & Straw I think. Still haven't tried enough of them to declare a favorite BUT it's the lemon base itself that I think would make any of them great. So maybe just straight up lemonade would end up being my fav.

The stuff this guy does with lemons is pretty awesome. But I think it might be illegal in at least 9 states and the province of Saskatchewan. :laugh:

I've had a few requests for upping the lemon in the Apocalyptic Lemonade... that's coming soon...

I'll play with that!!

In other news: I've also gotten a request for Wintergreen... coming soon!

It's a consumable. You will be using it up.

When I first started vaping, I overbought so much that I ended up tossing some liquid as it approached it's second anniversary. But, if what you have on hand is under 6 months' worth, what you are spending now is half of what you would need to spend then.

That is also true with the clearos and the vision.

This is for you new people... (I love saying that!)

Just to let you know, you're not limited by what all the pulldowns "force" you to do...

If you need 18mg nic, say, then let me know in the Order Comments. Want 110% flavor? Order Comments. Need a non-standard PG/VG ratio? Order Comments.

I will NOT go over 36mg nic, nor will I go over 200% on the Flavor. The first is actually an ECF thing, and the second is my thing.

If, for whatever reason, I miss the Order Comment (it does happen from time to time), please just drop me an email. I'll fix it.

Yep. I first noticed a big flavor drop when I switched to the vision and redux clearos from cartos, but it's even more so with the T3 clearo. I love everything else about it so much that it's worth just adding extra flavor to juice when I order.

I'm with ya's on all of those devices. I keep trying them whenever new ones come out, but anything with string in it really kills the flavor for me. They also never seem to wick fast enough for me so I end up getting a lot of "hot wet string" flavored hits.

I want to like them mostly for their convenience, but I get disappointed every time a new one comes out.

Maybe 150% would help me with that. It could surely help with the flavor part, not sure about the wicking. I need the thicker 50/50 due to PG irritations I get. But perhaps with more flavor coming through I wouldn't draw as long which would allow more wicking time between puffs.

I may give it s a shot.

I realize we're going way OT, but that is one of the things I'm loving about the Kanger T3. Since it's a bottom coil, it just doesn't seem to have the wicking and dry hits flavor that some of the other clearos have. You might try that one, if you decide to give clearos another shot. I've been using mostly 50/50 in them and have been very happy with them.

OK, back on topic! My order is in! Yay! Thanks everyone for your advice. You helped me go way over budget, and I ended up checking out with 24 items in my cart. LOL!

And Deej, I put it in my order comments, but really, really no rush on my order. I'm looking forward to trying all my new flavors, but I'm in no danger of running out of juice while I wait. Thanks again for this awesome (and fun!) sale!

I add a bit of cotton to them and they work great. :)

Before I was a mixologist, I ran networks and did software testing in the medical field. Multitasking was an absolute must. :)

I used to be better at it.... :p

I've got 5 of the T3's and 5 replacement heads from a coop. Most of it is collecting dust. I too thought that the bottom wicking would help, and it did to some extent.

I'd say the T3's are probably the best I've tried yet, but I'm still having issues. And yeah I did turn the O-ring / cup upside down.

Once in a while I get some outstanding hits with good flavor, but the next one will be burnt string or weak in flavor. Other times after letting it sit and soak for hours, I'll pick it up and get burnt string as if it hadn't wicked at all.

For me they're just too inconsistent / unreliable.
