OK, I did some research and I see there's been a lot of debate on this juice. This was the first juice I ever vaped and I loved it for a long time, but I eventually ran out of my stock and messed around with other stuff (cf. my reviews of Vapor Station and Gourmet Vapor). While Vapor Station's Tennessee, RY4, and Frost were all pretty good, Gourmet Vapor's stuff was majorly hit or miss. Hungry (thirsty? lungy?) for an all day vape, I ordered some more ECOpure Rich from Cignot and here I am.

I ordered two bottles of ECOpure Rich (one 10mg and one 24mg) with the intent of mixing them. Small addendum here: does anyone else feel like nicotine strengths are not always consistent among different brands? That is, I feel like a 14mg vanilla juice from, say, Liberty Flights, is stronger than Vapor Station's 18mg Frost. Of course there are other factors involved, but I'm just saying.

In any case, both bottles of ECOpure Rich are 100% VG. As far as I know, no ECOpure juice is made with PG, so you're up a creek if you want that.

I direct dripped some 24mg juice into my just cleaned (or so I thought), almost brand new 510 atty. First observation: I hate the orange flavor from Gourmet Vapor. It is really difficult to get out of an atomizer, and even if you do you'll find the juice clings to your cartridges even after you wash them. When I finally got some vapor flowing, though, a couple of things occurred to me. First, the 24mg about punched me in the mouth. The throat hit is mammoth and so is the vapor. Second, the flavor is definitely much milder than I remember. I'm thinking that because I got the juices this morning that may mean they have to steep for a little bit longer. I'll update tomorrow on that. I vaped this stuff for almost six months, though, and I remember (apparently incorrectly) that the flavor used to be a lot more vivid.

I had a similar reaction to the 10mg stuff. I'll say, though, that though the throat hit is much mellower (obviously) the vapor production does not decrease at all. It produces huge, satisfying clouds of vapor. I love it.

I've found in my vaping experience that a lot of the time it takes a couple of days to get used to a flavor. For instance, with Vapor Station's Tennessee, I hated that at first. After I gave it a couple tries, though, it grew on me to the point that it became my all day vape. I could never get to that point with anything from Gourmet Vapor, though.

In any case, anyone else have similar/different reactions? I'm happy to be back in the ECOpure saddle. I missed having a comfortable, consistent, enjoyable all day vape.

I also have to avoid PG, and have found that EcoPure Rich, at least for ME, is the perfect solution to the anything-in-moderation problem... I don't always like moderation in vaping. Sometimes I like to at least have the option of vaping my brains out on something if I so desire. hahaha But a lot of juices (even all-VG juices) are just too harsh for that, and can leave my chest feeling nasty after a little chain-vaping. Never happens with EcoPure. Worst I seem to be able to do is give myself a nic-buzz.

The taste is very mild, especially after you've been puffing on other juices... but it seems to me like that's also relative. My first puffs in the morning, the taste seems strong. If I've had a puff of ANYTHING else, anytime recently, it does seem weak. I think its just about what your mouth/nose have become used to (or numb to, if you're used to very strong flavored juice)

I mentioned above that one of the things I love ECOpure for is that it doesn't have the sort of strange taste that I get from a lot of other juices. I wish I could describe that strange taste more, but I can't really. I just remember when I first tried a Vapor Station liquid that it took me about a week to get used to the strange taste.

Now my question is could this taste be due to the whole PG/VG thing? Like, because ECOpure is 100% VG, is that why it tastes totally clear to me?

And by the way, word up on the all day vape-ness of it. I just can't get imagine getting sick of it. Sometimes I want something packed with flavor, but rarely.

I've enjoyed EcoPure Rich in the several orders I've placed. But, I haven't ordered in the past six months. I'm certain I'd still enjoy it!
But, I also enjoy juices which cost less than half as much per ml.

My very first exposure was when I won a small bottle for the cost of shipping. It's yummy, for those who don't mind the price.

Yes, I switched to Ecopure when I was having problems with nic reactions and was pleasantly surprised with taste too. They are one of the few companies that lab test their liquids and batch number them (they don't offer a lot of flavors but I was putting safety/purity first) If you can handle VG this is a must try. They rarely have sales but are having one till end of Dec with 10 or 15% off orders and free shipping.

So, what does it taste like?

Throat hit is very good for a VG juice. It definitely performs analog-like, and that performance makes your brain think analog. The actual flavor isn't. It's squeaky clean. It's like a hit of pure oxygen. Refreshing. Right now I have some leftover hazelnut in my atty from last night, but I'll review this soon and give the best description I can. Good juice, really good juice.

I used Ecopure Rich when I first started vaping and I too think the flavor is outstanding. I've since found a liquid that echoes this pure clean taste in BWB Malty, at a fraction of the price. It's a 70/30 PG/VG mix but the flavor is real darn close. It's one of those flavors you don't get tired of and serves as an excellent palette cleanser when you've been on a vaping frenzy and fried your taste buds.

BWB's Malty was originally named Eco-Poor because it was more affordable etc... it's quite similar... just not 100% vg.

I agree however, Eco-Pure Rich is awesome. The only reason I stopped buying it was the price... if I can catch it on sale, I'll bite.

Eco=pure fresh is also a nice vape... no strong taste... just nice clean vaping.

Thanks for the tidbit of BWB trivia. I thought I found the BWB treasures pretty early but you've got me beat. Glad you shared.
