Hey, just got my first order from tvr!
Got 50/50 pg/vg 24mg for each juice in 30/15/3... Quick flavor review pre-steep, fresh carto's.
Vanilla Tobacco (30ml): Interesting flavor... I'm fairly new to tobacco flavors, only having tried the copper creek house blend and carolina sunrise from iVape. House blend is similar in scent to this flavor but tastes nothing like it. Carolina Sunset was a "sample" from a friend and was reminescent of... Taking a whiff of cayenne pepper or something. After realizing it was similar to house blend from cc I was excited, since I loooooved that flavor.
Moving on to my impression, all I can seem to taste is overly sweet vanilla and some slightly bittersweet flavor that I really just can't put my finger on. It seems almost overly artificial, which I think is the root of said bitterness, and I'm hoping that will fade with steeping. Throat hit is ridiculous, which is good, but the exhale has the strange bittersweet taste, while somehow being too sweet to handle. Overall, I think this flavor has potential but it's more of an occasional vape in it's current state.
All that being said, I'm still new and don't know much about tobacco or vanilla flavors, so take my review with a grain of salt.
Creme de Menthe (15ml): Definitely a good flavor. Decent change from the straight menthol I've been vaping from CCV I don't really notice any "creaminess" but its a light mint with something I can't really describe. This suffers from a little bit of the same bitterness as vanilla tobacco, but it's not bad at all. Like I said... it's almost spearmint-ish... With a lil steeping I expect it will be much better. I EXPECT GREAT THINGS! XD
Oh... Possible all day vape, too.
Hypnotic (3ml): Rather interesting vape... I haven't used in a resurrector yet like the other two, but with my reg 510 atty it tastes pretty decent. Only way I can describe it is citrus... No specific citrus, but a hybrid of a few. Little less "artificial" flavor, but it's still there. After steeping a while I may have to grab a big bottle of this.
Now, on to my question... All of these juices have a strange artificially sweet taste to them. I almost wonder if this has to do with the pg, since most juices i've tried have been primarily vg mixes, no higher than 25% pg. I really like TVR, and the weekly juice deals are a good incentive to try new flavors out... If I don't like that much, save for a rainy day, etc etc... But are there any flavors without that strange artificially sweet flavor to them? While this may just be my weird taste buds, i'm looking for something that I can vape all day without too much damned sweetness. (In hindsight my choices probably could've been better for said request, but I wanted to try those!)
Also, could be that I need to steep longer. I will re-review in about a week, lol.
