Caste Long Reserve: "aged" in an oak barrel and tastes like vanilla, coconut, and whiskey

Either five pawns is crazy or Socal is in its own little bubble that is actually giving these guys business.

Who in the world would pay almost a dollar a milliliter? That is moronic at best, IMO. I'm done. so much more I could say. OK maybe I am not quite done. I could buy a bottle of jack/jim beam and extract some decent cigars and make over a liter of e-juice and still have enough money left over to go see a movie in 3D on a 4k screen.


Sorry if I sound snippy and I don't mean to offend anyone who may have bought that, God love their heart. I am sure that it is a decadent flavor. Worth almost a dollar a milliliter when the cost per milliliter is probably less than 12 cents? That is where I have issues. Pretty packaging doesn't make the juice taste better. It is almost the weekend and I need some vapage. Can you tell?

these guys are clowns

their founder is a "branding specialist" marketing flack

I don't know about the first part, but the second part is correct.

I can see this juice not just at right edge of a PBusardo price/ml chart, but shattering it, staking a claim in a whole new chart holding a little sign that reads, "I dare you."

Hmmm, where on the Five Pawns website did you see this for sale at that price? It's NOT there! Castle Long Reserve is a B&M juice ONLY and, as we all know, B&Ms can sell at whatever price they choose. I am a Five Pawns fan and they sent me a sample of this juice a while back. I loved it. You haven't tried it? You don't like it? DON'T BUY IT! Please, don't muddy the waters for those who might want to try a great juice. Their juices are really good and they are very considerate to and appreciative of their customers.

I got it in a trade... but I do have to say its one of the best I've ever had. Just being honest.

Most of us are former smokers and wouldnt think twice about spending 50-60-70-80 bucks on a carton. But compared to other eliquid, yeah this stuff is outrageously priced and I will probably never buy it just based on principle. I don't want other vendors to get the idea that THEY can charge that much too.

Funny thing is, I don't have any reservations about dropping however many hundreds of dollars sifting through other vendors stuff to find a cheaper alternative that I like as much as five paws.

It's messed up, but that's how it is. For me anyways.

Pfft. I'm making my juice line and will be aging them in a hog's head or a calf's stomach. The flavors will be very unique. I will send you your liquid in it's own special miniature flasks made from the skin of actual animals. Will follow up soon with more details.

I'm going to sell it for 55 a bottle...I just have to find the last missing ingredients, a unicorn's tears and a horses whinny.

The rpad.tv video review quotes the price as $37.50 for 30ml. How the manufacturer chooses to sell it is irrelevant. They do, and at the price quoted.

What others think of the company, their juices, and their price points is their opinion. Don't muddy the waters by shouting them down for having the temerity to express their views of the Five Pawns business model.

The point is still the same. It's the B&Ms that are selling it at that price. I can assure you that the B&Ms are NOT paying that for the juice. The MSRP is merely a recommendation. Us online folks won't be able to get it at all so that should be of some comfort.

I love a good brandy. I was given a cognac (Kelt) one year on New Years Eve. I loved it! When I went to buy a bottle, I found out how expensive it was and exactly why it was so expensive. What I loved about it was a slight salty flavor left in the back of my throat. I guess you really need to like something in order to pay a higher price to enjoy it. -Just my opinion-
