Essence is from Eliquidplanet.
Guess I was lucky, because it was the first juice I bought and I really enjoy the USA. Got a bottle of Ice also, but I'm not a huge menthol fan, so might not have been a good choice for me. I just now started ordering new flavors from multiple sites. First new one came yesterday and it was Virginia flue cured from Electronicstix. It has a very strong taste that is just too powerful for me, but mixing 2 parts USA to 1 part VFC mellowed it out very nicely.
Should be getting a few more liquids in the next day or so, but looks like Essence USA will be my baseline for comparison.
Some people may not like the Essence though because the highest nic level is 16 mg. From what I've read here so far, lots of people seem to use up to 32.

For those in this thread that talked about DIY go for it! Read the stickies in the DIY section and have at it. It really is simple and extremely satisfying tgo vape your own juices. In fact I like my stuff better than anything I can buy!
Sorrid & Flagreekguy - What are you waiting for. You have the supreme atty's and other than MOD building the DIY thing is the pinnacle of this hobby. No more waiting for juice, an endless supply at your fingertips, if you spill some who cares, and the flavor combos are only limited by your imagination. I acrry at least 20 different 3ml bottles w/me to work and change flavors more than my wife cahnges her mind throughout the day.

Only 20? If I carried a bottle for each time my wife changed her mind each day I'd need a backpack! 8-o
Me too! The only time I like to use carto's is if I'm going to be some place I can't easily drip. But that's not a lot of places. I ordered the Johnson Creek sample kit and it came with these little glass bottles with screw on dropper kit (hold 3.7ml of juice) - so I use those, don't worry about leaks and if I can vape someplace I can add a few drops easily. I feel like my cartos waste too much juice.
But I also clean my atty every couple of days (a $2 bottle of airline size Vodka lasts me quite awhile as I put it in a shot glass and reuse it 2-3 times for cleaning then rinse well so I don't smell of Vodka LOL). I have another Volcano coming so I will start alternating their use as well. My KR808D-1's just don't last long enough between charges for me - I just hate that blinking light telling me it's time to recharge.
32MG will make my face melt off. no way.
And i think they do that because their liquids are so flavorful they don't want anything to get in the way of the flavor. ya know?
Ya know, just for giggles I vaped straight vg from wal-mart with a touch of almond flavoring in it for half a day awhile back.(I did thin it a bit with some leftover banana rum I have)
While doing this I didn't really notice the lack of nicotine very much. Now that I think about it, that really makes my vaping 24mg nic juice all the time seem overboard. I bet I could drop down to 8mg or less and be just fine.
I started with 24mg and just kept buying it. I don't think I need that much anymore.

I've worked my way down from 24 to 6 and haven't actually noticed a difference. I have some 0 on the way for the evening...it occurred to me that I vape away in the evening when I'm relaxing and then wonder why I toss and turn. Gee dummy, maybe the same reason you don't drink coffee all night long.
I started out with cartridges but don't really like the taste of the filler I kept getting. Liked the PTB mod but making cart filler got old too. I started dripping a few days ago and enjoy that. It is a pain in the car, but even that has an upside. I have a reason to look forward to red lights now heh...
Going to order a few drip tips this weekend and see if it makes a difference to me. Honestly though, I don't really mind taking off the empty cart to drip.

I can't vape that high anymore. it's strictly 11-18mg for me and no higher. I have some 24mg RY-4 sitting on my desk if you wanna drive a few hours to orlando and pick it up lol cause it will never be vaped EVARRRRR.
Yeah I think the next juice I buy will be 8mg or something similar. It's silly for me to keep on with the 24mg stuff if I don't need it.
Aaeli,since you have started dripping I highly recommend the cisco 306 atties. Try one out sometime as they rock. You can find them in LR standard and HV. They take a drip tip specially designed for the 306 so keep that in mind if ever decide to get one.
I never bothered dripping until i got my first HV 306 a week ago. Now it's all I do.
Heck toss it in the mail. I'll use it.

Dude...that's so strange. I just got my cisco genuine LR 306's last week aswell from vaporflow and that's all i frekkin use.
Small world.
I'm going to order some HV 306's from isaac tonight aswell as some CR 123 a's so i can vape my face off at high voltage (I have an omega and don't have the frekkin batteries to crank it to 6v yet. suckkkkks)
Seriously though..if you want I can send you a sase and you can send me that ry4. I'll puff it.
