ECblends opinions wanted...

[cocacola31173]

I have been using just one vendor for a while and looking to branch out. I see that Ecblends have some reasonable prices and was just wondering if anybody can give me some suggestions. Also I had used a discount code with them a long time ago but can't find one that works, Anybody have some that do?

Thanks!

I liked their Dragons Tear quite a bit. Did some custom blends that turned out pretty good. I'd put the quality on par with Mt Baker Vapor. Good for the price but spend more and you can get better.

I've tried about 15 vendors as of now and overall considering price, quality of product and experience I would rate them as my #1 vendor. One good thing with them is that because of the price point, you can get more juices to try within you budget leading to greater success down the road. FWIW I think HHV is #2, AVE #3 of the ones I've tried.

I've personally sampled about ten of their flavors, mostly in the dragon series.

They all have good flavor, but, the flavor on most was extremely muted.

They do offer flavor shots, which I would recommend. Of the flavors I tried
I re-ordered larger sizes of Dragon's Brew, nice diner coffee flavor, a little creamy,
and Dragon's Milk, a blend of Cinnamon and rice milk. I was surprised at how
good the Milk was, cinnamon is the dominant flavor, the rice milk smooths it out
a bit, although the throat hit was a 7 out of 10 for me, perfect. I did order both
with an extra flavor shot.

Flaming Peach was also good, mild touch of cinnamon, which increases the initial
hit, again, I'd order with an extra flavor shot.

Vanilla malt was okay, but, if you don't like malt, don't consider. It should have
more vanilla. They also make a Strawberry Malt. Good luck, Ed.

I've tried a few of theirs, ordered mostly for the eggnog and fire and ice. The fire and ice wasn't horrible, but not nearly as good as my normal vendor's. The eggnog was horrible. Dragon's tears was pretty good to me, my wife said it tasted like chapstick. I might try them again later on, but overall wasn't too impressed.

Loooove ec blends. I am helplessly addicited to Dragons Blood, no matter how many different flavors I try from different vendors I always go back to that one -- definitely an all day vape, pshh who am I kidding, all week vape usually! Haha. Tastes are subjective though. Dragons tear is also awesome, I find its really hard for most vendors to nail the perfect strawberries & cream but EC has! Also check out Creme De Menthe (Andes mints anyone?) and Cinnamon Fireball if you're a fan of big red gum. They're one of my favorite vendors, excellent pricing and great juice! infact I even prefer them over most gourmet vendors I've tried!

 

[shellro07]

I really like ECBlend. Dragon's Blood and Dragon's Tear are good, but Kettle Corn is REALLY amazing! I can't seem to put it down!

 

[dchest02]

ECBlend was the first vendor I tried when I started vaping (almost 2 years ago), and I still keep a supply of Dragon's Blood in my vape stash. I probably go through 120 ml in three months, not my all day vape, but I still like it a lot.

None of their other juices have really WOWed me. You're not going to find really complex juices from them, if that's what you're looking for, but they do sell a mid-grade quality product at a great price. (By mid-grade I mean I've had better, but I've definitely had worse. They are no 5 Pawns or P.O.E.M, but most of what I've tried was still very vapable)

Obviously, lots of people love ECBlends.

I myself tried them exactly once, when I first started vaping; I ordered about a dozen flavors, and I hated every single one of them. They had a strange, nauseating under-taste to me, and I tossed them all immediately. I also hated their tacky, leaky packaging, and the cheesy plastic bottles that seemed to go weirdly soft after just a few days.

It's always possible that this was a fluke, and that my experience was completely atypical. Still, I'd never recommend them to anybody.

Lots of people love cheap prices

When I smoked ciggs I would get from the indian reservation cheap ciggs

where they as good as the Marlboro's ? NO
but the dif in price was $90 Marlboro vrs $27 Indian

being that I did not like smoking anyway the Indian version won

with eliquid it is dif for me I like good flav and enjoy it
So I buy from good vendor's for a little more for a better experience
because with eliquids I am not just trying to get by like I was with Cigg's

 

[piggy]

It's funny how many different opinions you'll get. I personally didn't care for their juices. Everything I've tried from them was either just Ok or downright nauseating. To me, Dragon's Blood tasted like it had rose perfume in it. My go to suppliers these days are goodejuice and Heathers.

 

[slykyfox]

I really liked their ry4, the bahama mama was just ok, and I didn't care for any of the dragon flavors I tried. But just like everything else taste is subjective. Lately I have been using good life vapor, they have some outstanding flavors, and there prices are very reasonable.

Kettle Corn! Definitely! I like with with an extra flavor shot.

Just ordered another 100ml of it this week.

Didn't care much for the Dragon's Tear, just not my kind of flavor. Their RY4 is OK, not great. There's a custom blend I've been through about 100ml of that I'll be ordering again when my last bottle gets low, put together the recipe with their Kahlua Wizard - Kahlua, whiskey, espresso, double sweet cream. It's amazing.

They do need to 'steep.' Straight out of the box, the flavors can be kind of odd or muted, but after about two weeks they seem to come alive.

That's an interesting way to look at it. I can see how that might work.

For me, eliquids are closer to being food than to being tobacco products, and I just automatically evaluate ejuice in that context.

For instance, I eat primarily local, unprocessed food, and really can't stand the artificial flavors or excess sugar in fast food and cheap snacks. I understand that there are people who genuinely like Quarter Pounders and Little Debbies, and I'm sure that makes a big difference in their views on eliquids, and in the kind of advice they'd offer a newbie.

I wonder if there's some way to do a poll on this topic? I think one of the reasons I bought so many juices I hated in the early days is that I never took the overall tastes of the writer into account when reading reviews.

I discovered that Eggnog needs to be COLD whether I drink it or vape it.

It's not just the cheap prices though, they have some juices that are pretty universaly liked. Dragon's Blood, RY4 and Peach ala Zoe are three such examples.

Personally of all the juices I've tried(probably north of 200, which I know probably isn't many to some) from 20+ vendors, Dragon's Crown is the single best juice. I just absolutely love it. Not an all day vape for me but I use it in the evening every single night in an iclear 16. It was like Dragon's Crown and the iclear 16 were meant for each other because it doesn't taste as good in anything else (but still yummy).

So even if you don't like all of ECBLend's juices (and who ever likes every juice from a single vendor anyway), you can find some core juices at a very, very good prices. Their RY4, Dragon's Dream (Orange Cremsicle), Peach ala Zoe and of course Dragon's Crown are four juices I always have on hand. The RY4 and Dragon's Crown, I use every day. All kinds of win here IMO.

 

[ShariR]

I quit smoking using their blueberry tobacco. It worked and was my first juice. I also really like the White Peach ala Zoe. The others I tried were meh, but I normally vape Ahlusion and NLV.

 

[Katcandoo]

Second the Dragons Milk and Dragons Crown. ECB has sample bottles of their flavors, $2.50 for 5 ml so you can can try them without dropping a lot of money.

 

[Bravesfan]

I do order Vanilla Gorilla from them and prices allow me to get a large quantity.

The problem with them is wading thru all the ones I don't like to get to the good ones.

The reviews don't help at all either because some of the top rated ones to me were not good.

I just don't want to spend the money to figure out which are good because the last order I made for Vanilla Gorilla, decided to try a few and I mean they were unvapable even after a month.

So, will be sticking with Tasty Vapor and Kick Bass Vapor where I have never received a juice I didn't like.

Wow, taste really is subjective and it is so hard to go on recommendations sometimes.

Not downing EC Blends because I am sure they have some good flavors besides Vanilla Gorilla, I just am not willing to waste anymore money trying to find them.

Maybe my taste buds are off, but all of their juices taste like heavy perfume to me. I've let them steep for months, and have yet to finish ANY bottle. YMMV, tho.
