eJuice Issue

[koski88]

So I decided to try Virgin Vapor as recommended by a few friends. So I went on their site and ordered Banana Nut 100% VG with 12mg nic. It came very fast in the mail and was excited to try it. So I did a fresh rebuild on my IGO-L, dripped some on and when I took my first hit....I almost threw up. The taste was absolutely unbearable, it had a harsh taste that made the inside of my throat hurt (not like a throat hit), and didn't even have a hint of the taste it should have been. Prior to this I've only ever used 50/50 on my PG/VG mix, and have been using 12mg nic levels for a while, so this was my first time trying 100% VG liquid. My question is did I get the bad luck of the draw and get a bad mix? Or were my expectations for 100% VG too high? Either way it definitely did not taste right. Does anyone have any input on Virgin Vapor and if they were good or bad experiences? I wouldn't mind giving them another try but only if I wouldn't be wasting my time.

Thanks!

Virgin Vapors ejuice needs to age a bit before the true flavor comes out.
Sorry.

I have 2 flavors from virgin vapor.. Hunger of persephone (aka pomegranate) and lemonaid. They did need to steep.
Neither are awful but they are not my favorites either.
They are just OK.

I've ordered from Virgin Vapor quite a bit. I have done their 100% VG liquids, but nowadays I prefer their 50/50 liquids. Their liquids, like many others, benefit from a bit of steeping. Some of their flavors I find a bit harsh right out of mail even though flavor is good, but a day or two with cap off will mellow this.

I think their fruit flavors can't be beat. I really like Original Sin (apple) and Plum Crazy. On the other hand the 'Kona' flavors which seem really popular seem a little too strong for me to vape. Cheers!

I find ejuice to be so personal and the taste so unpredictable to describe that I cannot rely on anyone's recommendation.

I always prefer local vape shops so I can try before I buy.

Steeping can help, but I've never had it turn coal into diamonds.

Yeah I've been sticking to my local vape shop, their juices have always been top notch for me, I just wanted to try something new
