My first introduction to the Virus was overwelming maple, I posted my reviews and only gave it a little thought. not really enjoying it. two weeks later, I tried it again. wow this stuff changed for the better, as have all the juice I ordered. Most were "I really like this stuff" have become "Man you have to try this" now its like "I am putting a lock on that juice box". I ordered frenilla and strawnilla. but I am not touching it for a good two weeks. I even tried coolcumber mint, never caring for menthol or cucumbers, this was indeed a big Suprise. Thank you NT. I might start eating my veggies now. And Megan, don't get me started on GCB. after a nice steep I am in Love:thumbs:

The Virus was the first juice I vaped from NT and actually I was put back by it at first. FOB I got a lot of cinnamon and peanuts but I read the reports of how the juice changes so I let it sit a couple days and BOOM! What the hell?! I got tobacco with maple syrup and vanilla with a little bit of that peanut taste in the background. I was hooked. Funny thing is I've gotten several bottles since then and never have I got that same strong initial taste of cinnamon.

That's odd. The Virus is so different for each and everyone of us. I can't really describe it - I suppose not knowing what Maple syrup tastes like doesn't help lol. But I never got any cinnamon (and I would remember, because I'm not a fan of the thing).

Are you sure that you hadn't vaped GCD in the same tank / wick ?

Cinnamon and maple are normal taste profiles for NET's, just everyone has a different note they pick up. ;)

I hadn't tried any GCD until recently but like Megan said, cinnamon can come through with NETs. You not picking up that flavor is one of the reasons why I love this juice so much. It has such a complex flavor profile that everyone tends to pick out something different.

with my ever-expanding variety of brand new nt flavors sitting in my vape basket i decided to try the virus next. Cleaned my tank and coil - put in a little over 3ml and sat down to have an introductory meeting with this "infection" fresh from the bottle with my morning (*cough* afternoon, i slept in *cough*) coffee.

Using: Provari with aspire nautilus tank - played with various voltages.

First impression: Uhhh... I taste fresh cut grass? Something "out doorsy"? Something undefinable but familiar - but - not in a good way? It was definitely different. It wasn't bad - but didn't hit for me for the first 30 minutes or more.

I powered on because it wasn't bad, i just couldn't figure out what i was tasting! My initial reaction was to add some bg or strawnilla (which i have not tried yet but smelling those bottles makes me drool :drool: ) - i resisted and kept vaping trying to figure out what i was tasting.

This is my first experience with net so i'm not sure if my first impression was because of the flavor profile of the tobacco or... I don't know!??

About an hour in i settled at 4.2 volts - i exhaled and tasted honey! Not generic honey - locally made clover honey. Not overly sweet at all but - honey... Hrrrm... Getting better! This is getting interesting.

I've been vaping this tank all day and it keeps getting better and better...

It's mellow... Smooth... Not in my face full of any one particular flavor... It's growing on me!

The longer i vape it the better it's getting, but i'm having the hardest time trying to describe the flavor profiles on this one.

I'm not getting maple, vanilla, caramel or any of the other flavors that i see a lot of people getting from this juice. What i *am* getting is certainly keeping me entertained and satisfied...

Maybe some steep time will bring other flavors forward?

I do know that i will keep on vaping this. It's an enigma. :)


i also know that before the night is up i will be trying some strawnilla... Or... Bg... Or gravity... Or...

Help! You people have totally corrupted me
:vapor:











infected!!!

Sounds like I may have to try this one, I don't really want the tobacco flavor but I am interested in the maple, waffles, and coffee notes it seems to evoke in others.

Just started vaping a little over a week ago and all I've been using is belgian waffle, and maple because they compliment my coffee, so a vape with all 3 together might help me with my caffeine addiction.

I drink coffee almost exclusively year round so I want flavors that will compliment it and it sounds like the virus might be one even if it is a NET

As others will attest, don't let the word tobacco put you off... TV refines the word "tobacco."

I know tobacco doesn't actually taste like cigarettes but it's not really a flavor profile I like either, I would have to find somebody near me that had it so I could taste test it.

If you lived near me I'd give you a tank ;)

The tobacco is more of a backbone flavor in most blends. Makes it deeper, more fully rounded....it's not like a juice where it tastes like dry grass (like some I've tried) and in the case of Virus it is very much forward but doesn't taste like chewing tobacco. Virus is just unbelievable! :thumb:

Every 3-4-5 orders we toss a loyalty bottle as a small token of our appreciation and a reminder that we'll never take your business for granted... on your subsequent orders, doesn't hurt to ask for a sample of The Virus - worst we can say is no, right? ;)

I totally agree. Honestly, I was baffled and not in a good way when I first tried it! All I can say now is - it's worth trying! It quickly started changing in the best ways possible. Now, about a week in, I definitely smell the maple and caramel in the bottle. It's mellowing out very nicely. It is not the unpleasant "tobacco" flavor I disliked in other juices. It's very smooth, complex and keeps me guessing. I did not think I'd like it but I really love it! I know it's going to turn into my "go to" juice between my NT bakery and fruit vapes.
