ooohhh cant wait to hear about that pumpkin in particular~!

My order is in transit, so I'm likely going to see it monday or tuesday. I'm a little concerned :D This is my first order on juice, I'm braaannnnnd new to vaping :) I've had my 901 with empty carts for over two weeks now and nothing to vape in it <3

Will Dawns spoil me rotten? Will I be ruined for all other juices from other people in the future? Oh noes!
 
No excuse for sending it but 6 days after placing the order!!!


Hand mixed, hand written note on invoice, packed.

It has been only a few weeks since the redone site and she has filled over 1000 orders of various sizes.

WAY DAMNED IMPRESSIVE imho for a small family run business, and she has been kinda under the weather. It is worth the wait and sooo worth it.

Trapped within my imagination
I got some sour and tobacco coming in soon. SOO EXCITED!


Sour tobacco? hmmm interesting


note: Valmeow, I know if you hadn't read the "timeline reviews" in ordering Dawns liquids or hadn't read on her site about the possible shipping time..It would be frustrating. ( soft smile)
However, I actually order from a few suppliers who are slower to ship...As long as I know that, I just place my order a few weeks early and forget about it... Because obviously if I'm willing to wait that long its worth it..
Take Janes kick juice, I know she only goes to the post office once or twice a week. But, she has my Abandon mint and had my beloved Special Blend #5..I'd of waited 2 months for them lmao
Same holds for Dawns Red Hot..I can't do without..Good things come to those that wait...so true..so true

looking so forward to your reviews :: smile

Well I have used the grape for 3 days straight and ummm still have 3/4 of a bottle left lol. The licorice flavoring fixed my mom's rancid licorice. Unfortunately I started using the RY4 from dawn and it had that chemical smell. She sent free caramel for me to put in it so I did, and now it tastes too caramelly. What to do? I am going to shoot her an email and ask what oils she uses to flavor the tobacco flavors and see if I can get those. I have lots of liquid that seems to have gone rancid and I have no idea why. Also, sometimes you get good batches and sometimes you get lousy ones... no rhyme or reason I suppose. Anyone else have any ideas?

Man, I love Dawn. I got her grape too. Mmmm... I also got her apple, blackberry, and pomegranate (MarlyB for my mom who just got her first vaporizer ^_^). She sent me 555 and camel for free. She's so sweet and wonderful to work with, and her juices are indeed amazing!


I read somewhere that if juice goes off, you can try leaving it in the fridge overnight, either in the bottle with the cap off, or in a bowl, to let the cold air get at as much of it as possible. I haven't tried it myself, but let me know if it helps. I also read that adding a bit of straight pg or vg to it (just a few drops) can help, after it's been in the fridge overnight. The post I read said it wouldn't fix it entirely, but made it vape-able. I guess it can't hurt to try, if you have a lot of juice that's gone off?

Yippee, yippee, yippee... I had a package waiting when I got home. I ordered Thin Mint, Grape and Mocha, Dawn threw in a little honey, red bull, and sweet coffee for me to try.

Oh my, oh my, oh my.... I've only tried the Thin Mint and Grape.. and oh my.

The Thin Mint tastes just like the girl scout cookie with a little coconut thrown in.. or at least I got a coconut taste.. nice and sweet and chocolatey and minty and it is a definite re-order.

The grape.... just like grape soda. Sweet, very nice.

Both are nice and smooth with not too much of a throat hit (which I'm not fond of, so that's a good thing).

Delicious....

If all Dawn's juices are like this, I'm going to be hard pressed to order from anyone else.

Can't wait to try the rest, but I need to lay off a little today, save some for tomorrow.

Yummy, thanks for the recommendations, so far so good. Worth the wait, very very good.

:D I got my package today as well :)

I have: Pumpkin spice, Mocha, French Vanilla, Cinn Roll, Cheesecake, and Dawn threw in Tropical punch and Honey. I am SO wishing I got that thin mint!

I'm a virgin vaper though, and I've learned one thing allready, I dont like that polyfill, I started using the PTB mod. I blew out my attys because that primer they put on... eek.

I think I have to break the attys in so I will get back to you and let you know how things go <3

I called and left a message for Dawn, and received a call back within 6 hours. That woman is busyyyy.

So she explained that the ry4 she sent must have come from the bad batch she had thrown out (she was getting help from others and they didn't know not to use that batch) so she is sending me some more and she even went as far as to explain that a 307 atty fits on the 510 battery and is good for dipping .... ooooo something new to try.

That Dawn is a smart cookie I tell ya! Anyways, just letting everyone know that DIY is the best liquid out there (and believe me I have tried a lot) and they could all learn a lot from her. Best customer service as well.

Thanks Dawn!!!

Got my second order in today and I must say that Dawn and George have done it again! I ordered the following:
Blueberry (double flavor)
Pomegranate (double flavor)
Cherry Cola (custom mix)
I got the following free samples:
Banana
Peach (double flavor)

The Blueberry is a subtle flavor even at double strength. Its a great vape and does indeed taste of blueberry. Not that sweet tasting.

The Cherry Cola that I had them mix for me is AWESOME. It is very flavorful and tastes exactly like it should. I was very surprised with this one. It may be a new favorite for me.

The Pomegranate is a nice strong flavor and is delicious. It reminds me of their Cranberry (which is my favorite so far). Definitely can taste the pomegranate flavor. Spot on.

As usual all flavors have great vapor production even with double flavoring. Just the right throat hit for the strength I chose (medium).

Just here to post a bit more love for DYIFlavorShack. I put in my first order there a few weeks back
Red Hots
Apple
French Vanilla
Cinnamon Roll
Coffee
Butterscotch
and she tossed in a free bottle of Cappucino!

Of all of them, by far, my favorite is Red Hots. It's delicious. Super strong flavor. Not only does it taste great, it produces tons of vapor and is the best juice to use on new and old atty's. By that I mean, the flavor is so strong that it overpowers any primer taste in new atty's and in old atty's, something about the cinnamon oils actually seems like it's cleaning out the wire mesh (510 here) or something, but it vapes better than any other flavors. I'm re-ordering 4 more bottles of it.

A great combo is Apple + Red Hots.

I find that I don't like the coffee or vanilla very much. At least not on anything but a brand new atty. Unless it's getting a 100% clean burn, the flavors seem off and not very strong. Butterscotch and Cappucino do this too, but to a lesser extent.

This time around I ordered 4x Red Hots, Strawberry and I think Cotton Candy as I'm finding I like the sweeter, lighter colored juices better.

Ok today and yesterday I have been vaping a mixture that Dawn recommended (cappucino and mocha) and I am thoroughly enjoying this. It's a bit sweet .... kinda like a coffee hard candy (does anyone know what I am talking about... you know those chocolate coffee flavored hard candies ... think they are called nips?)

Dawn sent me replacement ry4 because of the bad batch she got from her supplier. Gotta hand it to the lady! I think in my next order, I will definitely be trying the red hots I am hearing so much about!
 
I would dedicate an atty cart combo for just red hots. OH just as a precaution hv redhots is a bit rough, I am a glutton for punishment tho. I love it, its there and on the hotter end of the spectrum.

I love her mocha and use that almost by it self or mixing with pumpkin spice for a taste treat.
Also mocha with anything is good, except the sweeter fruits. Please trust me on mocha nd sweet fruits is not all that rocking.

The smarties is spot on also, I do not know how she gets textures to flavors but she does.

Hi everyone out there--
I'm fairly new to vaping, but I've gotten some juices. There are so many sites out there that I'd like some advice. I'm currently using Blu, but awaiting a new 510 kit (very excited). The new 510 may change the vapor...because of voltage. I'm not sure how much voltage the Blu is, but anyway...I like lots of vapor and lots of nicotine. Here's a list of what I've tried and how I like it...please post any thoughts on what liquid you think I might like. BTW, I am dripping. Not sure if this is better for flavor, but the tiny blu cartridges are too much bother for me the refill.

totally wicked 36mg Vanilla--good nicotine, but a very funky taste. kind of like dirt-medicine, and not at all like vanilla. Do not recommend.
totally wicked 36mg watermelon--good nicotine, but very light (almost not there) flavor.
nhalers--cherry bomb (24mg), blueberry (24mg), and grape ape (24mg)--decent nicotine hit and vape, but the flavors all pretty much taste the same...vaguely fruity.
nhaler 555 (24mg)--awesome flavor. I had no idea what I was ordering...it is sort of like vanilla almond.
nhaler mocha tobacco (24mg)--nice.

Is there another vendor that carries 36mg in good flavors with nice hit and vapor? Thanks for any feedback from the gallery.
