The coconut is really mellow flavored, and I can barely taste it.. adding the pineapple with it seems to bring out the flavor.. for me anyways. I'm a big pina colada fan.. maybe I'll add some banana to it too.. tho I've heard that some of the banana flavorings are kind of chemically tasting.. it' s why I usually stay away from artificially flavored fruity flavors, they all taste like cleaning products to me.. not that I'm in the habit of tasting cleaning products, but you get my drift.

I would love to be able to find some small bottles locally, but will order them online if I have to and if I can find something I like. Maybe I'm just being picky. *peeks at shawn's site*.. not there yet... gonna go check out the dollar store and see if they have anything usable for meantime... I wanna try the VG, I guess I can just use it plain and see what it's like...

That's what I did. I just mixed it with some 555 juice because I wanted the nic but really wanted to see this theory of enhanced vapor in action. I find that it is soothing to the throat. I believe this is mostly due to the nic level but also may have something to do with pg. I can't really explain but it just felt better to vape.

Unfortunately right now I can only seem to taste the pineapple flavor and just a little. I know this is due to the sinus infection I have been fighting for two weeks. Since I can't seem to taste most of my food very well I know it's not just my juice. Isn't it funny how after 6mos I can't stand to be in places where there has been a lot of analog smoking. It really irritates my sinuses. It doesn't bother me to be around smokers outside, but inside just really bothers me now.

You know you can use your old bottle of juice by popping off the cap. Since I didn't have any empty bottles when I first started my experimenting I just washed out a couple of empty bottles I had and reused them. It is just much easier if you have an eyedropper of syringe w/o the needle.

I don't have any empty bottle as of yet. I could pour out the rum one I don't like but I'm thinking if I mix that with some other flavors it will be palatable. I would try to make an alcoholic pina coloda with the rum one but I don't wanna waste my coconut and pineapple.. heehee. I have a ton of small 5 ml oral medication syringes from the vets that I plan on putting to use. Got a couple from the pharmacist, for free, when my bunny had an eye abscess and I had to wash her eye.

My hunny smokes a pipe.. sometimes I like the smell, sometimes it's so overwhelming I want to cry. Even though I'm still smoking sometimes I'm ultrasensitive to the smell and sometimes not so much. It depends on things. I find myself sneezing a lot when I smoke an analog now.

What I found funny and sort of like OMG was, after a day of not smoking at work, I went out to my car, and took a sip of my coffee from the morning (yeah, I know, prolly not so healthy, but no cream and it was cold that day) and I was stunned by the taste. I was like wow, does all coffee taste like this??? It was crappy coffee too and it tasted wonderful.

I'm using the 11mg juice right now. Seems to keep me calm at work, so that's probably strong enough. I could probably cut it down more and see if that helps smooth out the "throat hit" some more, was never really a fan of that to begin with. Some flavors are better than others. The vanilla and the rum I don't like the hit with, the pineapple is better at smoothness strangely, and the menthol is the best of the flavors I've tried. Hope the capellas ones I ordered won't be harsh, ordered the flavors that intrigued me and got good reviews. I think I'm looking for something super sweet now too.

Okay, I went and played Mad Scientist in my bathroom, because it's the only place I have peace and privacy and no one asking me 10 million questions....

I found a really small pill box and mixed up some juice. Half VG and half a combination of coconut, pineapple, rum and like 1 or two drops of vanilla, mixed in some vodka cuz it looked thick, and then cackled maniacally....

Taste is not too bad, needs more coconut and needs to be sweeter. Vapor with the VG is awesome, hope it doesn't gunk things up tho. VG is kinda weird... sorta makes my mouth feel like I've been eating crisco or chapstick. Definitely smoother. Vaping like a chimney now. teehee!

Still haven't found any decent bottles locally and I've looked everywhere I can think of, going to have to order some.

I'm having a lot of fun with this, the OCD beast is appeased with a new obsession...

I got the same feeling initially with the vg. I am looking forward to Shawn carrying some flavors. I like you did some reading about flavors and it appears that the capellas seems to be the most popular. I am looking forward to reading about what you think. Please PM me after you try them. I will be interested in the %'s of vg, nic juice and flavoring.

I had not ever thought of putting vodka in my juice but I may have to try this. I have some raspberry vodka. Maybe I will try that with the raspberry capella.
