Flavors that miss their mark?

Wow. Glad I did not try all these silly flavors. Only thing I cared for was the Cowboy which almost destroyed the carto before I could bring it back to life with some Freedom juice.

Even the premium carts will deteriorate fast without some quality juice and careful maintenance. I rinsed out the smilin juice and replaced it with new pure from Halo.

To V4L credit.....the carto is fine but to keep the longevity means getting rid of the original and replacing it with some quality juice.

I keep V4L cartos for back up.

Steve, thanks for the nice note. I sensed after reading your previous post that I may have overlooked something when creating this thread. I initially had nothing but fun in mind, but your post, as light as it was, reminded me of my own professional work.

I teach at a major university and for the U.S. gov't abroad, and I'm always trying my best to please a wide range of interests and preferences. It ain't easy, and I'm probably more sensitive than I'd like to be when certain students nitpick about this or that in my courses. Reading your joking response brought me some regret, especially after my overwhelmingly positive feelings about V4L and this forum. I owe you guys a heckuva lot.

Again, I apologize for not thinking more about the bigger picture. I hope that any noobs reading will catch the warm and playful spirit evident here and throughout this great forum. Meanwhile, nothing but the best to you and the crew! Jeff

Pumpkin Pie was god-awful... it was like vaping a rotten acorn squash.

Yep, taste is subjective... I love FVIC

Jeffree, even though I only joined on Feb 1, I had been lurking for months, vaping since last October (I am a 4081 convert to V4L). The only reason I became a registered member is due to the OUTSTANDING product line and customer service, and feel compelled to advocate by posting any insight and tips to help others as much as they have helped me. Believe me, Steve and Mark have heard it all; they are big boys with elephant skin. You should take every possible opportunity to abuse them thoroughly, because then they make up better stuff and tools for all of us to vape with!

 

[clexxi]

I love all the tobacco flavors especially Hilton. The only flavor that is unredeemable to me is WHISKEY. Just awful but then I'm not a drinker. Don't know what possessed me to order this one.

 

[Mary Kay]

I have tried a LOT of flavors..out of all them the only ones I won't vape is the ones with cream in them..I just can't hack it. The rest are great! But that's just me..I don't drink milk except in coffee and cream is only for making whipped cream in my house. So I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

I don't vape Tobacco flavors because I was afraid they would be too close to analogs and cravongs would kick in..not the case! I recieved some as gifts and I do like them very much..no cravings for the "real" thing!

My all time favorites are RY4,Chocolate and almost any fruit. Peach cobbler and Pear is at the top along with Chocolate banana!

Since we are talking about 90 Flavors.including the new premiums ...a couple of dislikes are not bad in my book! The ones I love seem to be the ones you all don't care for..it evens out!

Keep it up guys..you are doing great!

 

[Nilius]

Please help, I need to right person to get 100 flavors perfect, x 7 strengths=700 differents products,, as well as 700 different juice....and then to top it off, make everyone taste everything the same way

Great pay, and benefits....must live in China....Must guarantee results, or NO PAY8-o

Big Job no?

Wait a minute!
So you will admit that you are holding poor Leaford in China as adult slave labor? That poor man...

Hey Steve,
Wouldn't worry about the effects of this thread on noobs ---I am a semi noob (only on my third order from V4L--but we all realize taste is subjective and any two people could have completely different opinions of the same flave---you just have to try it to see if you like it--- recommend 5ml bottles and some blank carts though---

I have a box of OJ carts i thought I would like but to my pallet its a real eeewwww---and french pipe sounds nice but to me they taste like a used insole --

MaryKay---it was actually the cigarette flaves that helped me quit analogs --- Kamels are my latest favorite --- with these I miss NOTHING about analogs---

Just ordered Kant because i read here it is one of the best comparisons to analogs---any opinions on this??

 

[lonercom]

I have tried almost all but the liquor flavored one. Same reason as MaryKay but different. While I kant say that I have found any that I hate, there are a few that I'm saving to see if I might like them better another time. Well, except for this 20ML bottle of cigar that I can't even give away.

My advice to noobs is: V4L is like a buffet to me. Not an AYCE buffet unfortunately. Try everything and then go back for seconds of the stuff you like.

Mudbugs, Who would have thought that I'd eat Mudbugs!

 

[Katya]

I haven't tried all of them, but so far, the only flavor I simply couldn't vape at all was the new Blue Parlament. Red Cow and Cola were not for my taste buds, but at least vapable. But I agree with most that they are unpredictable. I would never have ordered pear, even though I like pears; just seemed odd to me. Luckily, I got one in a fruit sample box and I fell in love with it. I can't wait for the premium pear.

 

[KitKit]

I must have a very different taste pallet. The only flavor that I have tried so far that I just can't vape is CMF and a lot of people love it! But I love the FVIC and the Irish cream and a lot of people don't care for the creams! V4L team just keep the flavors coming! To the new people try them all you never know what you will like.

 

[mini_art]

I am a newb, just one month into this and this thread doesn't put me off at all. In fact my next order is on its way from v4l. New flavor as I havent really found my go to, one yet.
I really didnt care for the ones I got with my first order but there will be one that I do like. I am sure about that.
Pear to me was like perfume, just couldnt do it.

Everyone is different.
It is just plain fun to see what everyone likes and doesn't like, not to mention entertaining!LOL

Curiosity Kills the cat. (and there was NO Satisfaction to bring this cat back)

I have read a good few on this thread stating that Cranberry was not that Cranberry'y? and i remembered i had a cart in my little Sampler box i had not tried yet.

I have never had the urge to punch something so bad after trying this.

I have tried nearly EVERY flavor and Cranberry is defiantly not a favorite.

I will totally keep it to give to friends though

 

[wader2k]

Ya'll just keep hatin' on the FVIC......


MORE for ME!!!!

 

[AllCoExPat]

As others have pointed out, taste is incredibly subjective. With that said...

The worst: RY4 (soggy dog poo), caramel (no flavor to speak of)

The best: Peach cobbler, Kamel, Watermellon, Smilin' Menthol... and on and on and on...

The good far outweighs the few "yick" flavors I've run across.

 

[lonercom]

I do like the fact that there are so many different flavors to chose from and I DO like to try everything. At least as much as I can afford. I also keep track of what I like and don't like.

So I went back to my list and made a photo of it. I know no one is going to agree 100% and like I said previously, my opinions are subject to change. OK, so I'm fickle.

I agree with your opinions 100% out of spite.
