their ry4 is my go-to tobacco vape. heavy caramel, light vanilla, on a medium tobacco base. and the price is phenomenal. very much like the DK ry4, but smoother? less harsh? it's hard to tell really, i have cut my nic levels from 24 to 12 in the last 2 months. flavors i loved at 24 taste bland at 12, and flavors i hated at 24 are now popping.

If I am reading this right, you have me worried. I ordered 12 mg. 100% PG. Oh well, we'll see.....

I live over by white rock lake, Dallas, TX.. I stumbled across the vapor stop; Ferguson road at I-30. That hombre has 75 flavors, but I'm afraid of straying from tobacco flavors. I only recently discovered that you can mix flavors and come up with a nice new flavor.

How does it happen? Do you say to yourself "that and that and that sound good, I'm gonna mix 'em?"

Just posted on another EC review. Again I will say this is by far the best juice company out there. The prices are awesome the flavors are awesome the customer service is awesome & the shipping is awesome. What more can we ask from a company. I've ordered a few times now & have always gotten a sample 5ml package. I will stay with this company for a long time, as there is no need to try anyone else. They have all the flavors you could ask for! I'm glad I found this American made company!

MixedBerry 60pg/40vg Extra Flavor 12mg:
Vapor:8/10: very good
Th: 5/10 (Average for low nicotine)
Flavor: 8/10 (Intensity that is)

To quote chris rock "MO 'TUSSIN.... MO 'TUSSIN"
If you like mixed berry cough syrup / mucinex / whatever.. this is the vape for you.. If I had a cold I"d use this to give me a placebo effect of taking some cold medicine not for me.. if it's for you though.. the flavor was good, and the vapor production was good.. just not my flavor.

Juice is Caramel Cheesecake - 0 nic. 70/30

Order received 3 days after placing it! LOVE that.

Out of the package, the flavor is cloying. It does NOT taste like caramel cheesecake to me but rather, toasted pecans. I am not upset by this because it's pleasant but it feels like a pretty cloying juice (it hangs around on your pallet for a bit after you exhale). I wouldnt like it as a "cheesecake" flavor but thinking of it as toasted pecans makes me happy with it.

The notes are sweet with butter, cream, and a tiny bit of maple. There is an acrid note to this, almost like that dry, chalky feeling you get when you bite into a fresh pecan and chew it up.

I think I'm going to let this one steep a bit and come back and review again later.

It's a timid thumbs up for me.

I find that most (not all) of the EC Blends flavors take a good week or two to truly develop, and a few are still too cloying for my taste. I did order several with extra flavoring, so I will chalk that up to my own error. At this price, I can afford to make a few learning mistakes. That being said, steep, steep, steep! I received an order last week, and though I dripped them all to taste, I put them aside to age a bit. I found that the Dragon series especially needs extra time, and I'm hoping (when this cold is over with) that the RY4 I ordered the first time around may hit my palate in a more desirable way. I highly recommend Dragon's Leaf and Dragon's Tear, as well as Steven's Surprise. Good fruity vapes.

I just received my order of 21 flavors 2 days ago. Not very impressed with most so far, but I already know about steeping. I will review them as time-appropriate.

So far, the time is appropriate to review Cinnamon Danish, 70PG/20VG, 12 nic., regular (no extra) flavor.

All sampling with RIVA 510 and a 2 ohm atomizer.

Very good. Sugar/cinnamon, buttery flavor. Like cinnamon toast. Very smooth. Not too much flavor. Definitely not too little. Just right, actually.

Could be an all-day vape, but I like to switch flavors.

I did notice that the drip onto the wick from the tank has to be "right" for this great flavor. I loved it, and re-filled, and was having some trouble with the re-fill. I played with the silicone seal in the tank's cap and think I got it right. Flavor is great again.

I'm glad you found a "right away" vape from them. I like Dragon's Tear right away, but so far, that's it. I do love the juices I have purchased from them, much so. I'm on two weeks steeping time for quite a few liquids and can still taste the perfumy essence in them. Grabbed a bottle of "Dragon's Blood" I received about four weeks ago and it's just right. I had forgotten about that little baby. It's definitely not my favorite of their Dragon line, but I'm not a huge Dragonfruit fan.

I am mostly interested to see where the White Peach a la Zoe goes. Of course, I sampled it already. Impression is, at this point, a fake (but pleasing) peach flavor that comes across with a moderately gritty/dry/wicky throat hit. Given the magnificent reviews, I expect significant improvement.
Oh, it will goooooo.....I still feel like the peach is more of a candy peach than a true fruit peach, but it's more of a nice peach tea to me, and that was at one extra flavor, if I remember correctly. It was nice out of the box, but it definitely improves. WPALZ is one I'm surprised I didn't reorder (I spent too much time mulling over it and something was inevitably going to be left out) but I still have half a bottle from my original order. It's not necessarily my favorite, but I really like it.

Thanks for the review. As regards Cinnamon Danish, I have quite a volume of liquids yet to go through, but I can tell you that I already went to my ECBlends account and put it in a Wish List so that I don't forget to re-order it down the road. (Too many names to remember). I highly recommend it. 70/30 straight (no extra flavor).

The only thing that will make my Wish List will be stuff that I find is 10/10. So far, this is the best ECB flavor I have tried. So far..... It is better than Texas Pecan Pie, RY4, Feel Like a Nut, Coconut and Caramel Cookies, Wizard's Cave and Caramel Cheesecake. I'd take the Cinnamon Danish over all of those.

(I did re-order Coconut Caramel Cookies, though. I found it to have a very smooth, authentic flavor and that it worked well as a mixer for bland flavors. My intent is to use it to get my money's worth out of any flavors I bought which need some help).

That's pretty accurate based on my experience with 80/20 XF, 12 nic. Only I kept thinking "pie crust with extra caramel." Cheesecake is absent. It was still good. You're right. It does hit a bit dry. I liked it among the others I got, but I will not re-order this.

Steeping longer than about a week made no difference really.

A slightly amusing incident: I have been trying my darndest to use up my little sample juices, (from various vendors), that I have had laying around. I had no allowed myself to use ANY of my big bottles lately, including my beloved RY4, because I am flat out determined to get thru these samples. I only allow myself to use it if it is in a little bottle.

In my juice box I found a little sample sized bottle filled with my beloved RY4, DXF, + extra vanilla and caramel... now, that little bottle is not technically a sample because *I* filled the little bottle from the BIG RY4 bottle months ago to have a purse sized bottle to carry with me - BUT!! It was in a little bottle, so I was not breaking my own rules. Anyway, I digress... So, I filled my T2 with that juice and let it soak into the wicks for a bit and took me a nice big vape. My hubby said I grinned hugely and said, "Oh how I've missed you" OUT LOUD. Umn, I thought I said it in my head. :oops:

I went back to the WPALZ last night. What a difference 2 days makes! I must say I am glad I did not order XF this time around. It turns out I like my flavors very detectable, but subtle. It more closely resembles a delicious tobacco. The XF is flavorful, but does not leave enough resemblance to "smoking."

I will definitely order WPALZ again!
