That's the one I was referring to...I recall that I wasn't as enamored by it as everyone else was, but this Rampage is something else...I'm going to have to order some of brand X just for a comparison, but as I recall, I would say this is very similar, but better, lighter. I can't put this stuff down, this is my kind of scum....
That's encouraging. I have a sample bottle of rampage that should get in tomorrow. I kinda feel like an idiot…I got a package from GV last week and another this week…I wish I'd combined them and saved on shipping. C'est la vie.
BTW, we are talking about the one named for Jango Fett's son, right?
I'm actually concerned. Dragoncon starts thursday. I don't expect to be completely sober for very long at a time from thursday night through monday morning (nerdfest = bender) and the madvapes (i got it right this time) juices I've been hitting hard lately (mostly because of price) don't play well as all day & night vapes……one of them gives my girlfriend a headache……they don't mix well with alcohol (weird tastes get stuck in my mouth)……and I'll only have about 40ml of nectar (rampage + 2 other sample bottles + what's left of my 36ml of hush)……which would be fine for a week under normal circumstances……not sure about how long it'll be 'till I'm just chain vaping hush for 20 hours/day.
I'm probably worrying about nothing. But still.
Unfortunately, no time to steep. Except for the hush that I've been saving……and that's only been like a week.
If you are chain vaping and drinking/drunk anyway, you might try cutting juices down with plain old VG or PG. Yeah, it dilutes flavor and nic content, but if it is going to taste weird anyway, and you are chain vaping, and you are drunk, well Those dilutions should not be a problem.
Decided to bulk up before all the excitement tonight. At 7PM EST by the way. Just finished a burger with a pretty potent onion. The surprise is I really like the additional taste it has given to a wide variety of juices. Maybe Chris should come up with a tossed salad flavor. Or maybe I'll see if onion extract is alcohol based. Who wouldn't want a vape that gives you onion breath?
Just checked. Most onion extract is extracted using grain alcohol.

First impressions of the new batch: awesome. all around. Maybe I don't hate tobacco vapes……I just got the wrong ones.
Rampage: Good straight out of the bottle (in an older 901 atomizer that's seen better days). It reminds me of a "Turkish Blend" that I got from the first place I ordered juice from. It was cheap and chinese and had some weird stuff going on. This is similar but better in just about every way with none of that weird burnt nut oil thing that some of the tobacco vapes I've gotten have had. I like it.
Berry Blue Bacco: Less positive on it, but I like it okay. I'm not sure I'm getting blueberries from it, but my nose is stopped up (allergies) and it's definitely enjoyable. Same older, generic 901. There is an interesting, tart sweetness to it……that might be blueberries. It's been a long time since I've had them, and between allergies and smoking, my senses of taste & smell are so screwed up that I had to do a scotch flight about a week ago of 3 single malts that I've had > a liter of each……and responded to each of them with something like "I liked it before, and I still really like it……but were you guys tasting all this stuff the whole time?". And it's not like I thought they were simple flavors to begin with. So, take these comments with a grain of salt.
Colossal Caramel Bacco: I like it. The sweetness isn't overpowering. Nothing stands out from my memory right now except a nice blend of warm, caramel-ish sweetness and a gentile, well-behaved tobacco tone, but I will be vaping it more……and I'll report back.
Follow up on City Lights: I remember not liking it, so I just didn't finish the bottle whenever I got it in……a few weeks ago. It's been steeping in my box and I decided to try it again. Everything I didn't like about it seems to have disappeared with a few weeks (sealed) in a dark box. I vaped like 1.5 ml of it tonight and really enjoyed it.
So……unless something weird happens with the new ones, that's 4 36ml bottles for my next order. I can't see myself vaping tobacco vapes all the time, but I really like these.

Just tried the Star Fruit. Initial reaction is that it tastes like a citrus-y marshmallow, in a good way. I've never eaten a star fruit, but if this is what they really taste like then I need to start buying some.
A FEW OF THESE JUICES ARE PRETTY GOOD IN MY OPINION SUCH tobacco americano AND swedish fish.
Continuing with my Rampage journey. Here's hoping this will be helpful to someone.
Above are my initial impressions. It's been steeping for 9 days now (I intended to give it 10, but got impatient), and the first thing I'll say is, this is a juice that needs some steeping. Not a problem for me, I steep most of mine. I've just finished a whole tube starting last night and continuing this morning (in one of my GotVapes Phoenix 1.5ml XL bottom coils!) and I now have further thoughts.
The preliminaries: the sample bottle I got had nothing on the label other than "Rampage", Based on what I read about the samples on the web site, this sample should have been 70/30 PG/VG and 12mg nic, so we'll just say that's what it is.
On a 1-5 scale:
Throat Hit: 3. This is fine for me, I've been off analogs for almost 14 months and don't need a huge TH, but if you need a "punch in the throat", you might be disappointed. A higher nic content might help that if you need it.
Vapor: 4. Vapor is good. I'm not getting "tons" like the description says, but it's fine.
Flavor as described: 5. More to follow.
Flavor density: 5. This is a tasty juice IF you like chocolate.
Here's the description of Rampage from the website:
Notes of sweet tobacco is spot on. They're way in the background, but they're there, which is just the way I like it. If you're looking for a strong tobacco flavor this probably isn't what you're looking for. The caramel is there too, you'll have to search for it, it's very light. That's OK, caramel can be overpowering. "Light milk chocolate" is a perfect description of what I'm mostly tasting. It's not a dark chocolate flavor, it's not an overly sweet chocolate flavor, it IS a very light milk chocolate taste, and it is by far the dominant flavor I'm getting. There are some other flavors too that I can't quite place, I guess they're the "other gooey delightful flavors" from the description. I mentioned in my original review the "fruity" taste on the exhale. It's still there, although much lighter now. The description says "citrus peel exhales", but I'm not getting citrus. It's more like some big, fat berry of some kind I get on the exhale. It's not overpowering (it was kind of initially), but it's there.
Overall, this is a very good juice. It isn't going to be for everyone, but it's a quality made juice nonetheless. I've had enough "nasty" juices over the last 14 months to know the difference. If you like chocolate flavors, you might want to give it a try.
If I was trying to be a PBusardo copy cat, I'd definitely give this a thumbs up, but maybe not a street shout out.
And as with any juice review, ymmv.
Got two new ones today.
Peach-Pineapple... Very good fresh out of the bottle. Not a ton of peach that I can taste but very nice. Don't wanna be a Hush hater but I like this one more. I think I just like Pineapple. If you like Pineapple you'll love this.
Hawaiian Kerpow ... This ones not bad either. Not too punchy yet. I think a week in the corner will do this one some good.

I used to vape Hush exclusively, but about a month ago it suddenly started to taste like perfume. The color of the fluid has also changed from a light golden brown to orange. Did something in the formula change within the last month and a half?
Hey everyone! Please dont forget while you post your opinions here, you can and should post your votes here:

It's another great way to tell the vendors and each other what we like and what we love. This review thread is a good thing for descriptions, but the voting thing can give a much clearer indication off overall trends in flavors. There have been things I've tried because of these things on these myself, so I know we ALL benefit from this, the vendors to know where they are going right and wrong, and each other to find out our taste twins and get a better chance of finding juices we will love. So share the word and share your thoughts. And then go down and make your vote. Thanks!

Color changes seem to be common to this juice, particularly with heat. Also, someone awhile back indicated theirs was a bit like incense. Steeping was recommended, but I do not remember a report back.
Just pulled out my bottle of Hush to take a look. Mine is still a light golden color. So.......dunno what may have occured.
This is my review of: Crushed Caramel Apple: First off, it smells like cheap pancake syrup(not real maple syrup).It's supposed to be caramel not pancake syrup.I can not smell any apple in it and there is a chemical smell to it.The flavor has a rubber,chemical taste,and all I can smell is that pancake syrup smell and that turn's me off to it.
lol everyone has different opinions.
i know i want a great banana flavor- and a good ry4 more carmel taste -less like maple syrup .
sounds like i will have to try the butterscotch - i havent had a good butterscotch yet- none i have tried come close to tasting like it. carmel apple sounds good. planned on some juice and try some fluxomizers - my new stardust started leaking also but alas i have to wait to next month- some of you have dragongan sorry if mispelled -i have electric bills and cant open windows atm -kids alergies lol . but im going to keep reading this thread -it is very helpfull to hear peoples opinion. and stretch out my city lights lol

Well, I picked up a sampler of City Lights. The flavor is very light. I taste a hint of chocolate and sweetness, similar to chocolate salt water taffy, but very light. This falls in with Hush, dreamscape and rampage, as far as being a mostly indeterminate mix of flavors. I can pick up on some flavors, but mostly not. A light hint of tobacco, maybe, kind of sweet. Mostly there's something in the distance that reminds you of something, but you're not sure what.
Unlike the other three I mentioned, I can't say I'll be getting this one again. City Lights is not un-vapable; it's not 'bad', there is nothing in here that is offensive, but nothing stellar either. For me it's very middle of the road. If you like very light flavors, this might be for you, but I prefer a stouter flavor.

Thats is how all of mine have been up to this last bottle. When I went to order it roughly a month ago it was out of stock, I ordered as soon as it came back in and it looked funny, and tasted horrible. I read in another post about someone's juice left them thinking they just vaped a barbie leg, and thats about what mine tast like. None of the peachy, fruity goodness I was used to. Its been sitting for 5 weeks now and while it has calmed down somewhat, its still unbearable to me. Maybe I will order another bottle to see if its just this one.
I recently ordered some Hush (before this recent batch sold out), and mine was similar. Same color you're talking about, and it also had a perfumey taste on the exhale. I've been letting it steep for a few weeks, and it seems to be much better now. But it still doesn't taste like its supposed to, idk. I'm hoping it was just this batch, and the next one is back to normal, because this juice is so great.
I must say i just got in rampage and cake supreme, and both are very good juices... I actually passed on 5 mls of cake supreme to convert a fellow vaper to GV's flux nectar line..
She has vaped chinese juices for a looong time, and has no clue as to what she is missing..
Im letting the rampage steep for a little while, as the orange overtones are very stout.. But its a very decent juice.
Ill be ordering again next week, and i feel that i have found a great supplier. Chris, im sorry about the confusion on my last order. I did recieve the juices this time, without failure. Thanks for fixing this very small issue for me.

Yesterday, I received an 18 mg nicotine bottle of City Lights; after trying the samplers twice before ordering the 18mg nicotine bottle. I really like GV's City Lights! (and live beyond city lights; where there is natural native Texas at my back fence.) There is a just a little bit of a pine taste mixed among the flavors. The various flavors in City Lights blend together exceptionally well. From beyond the city's lights, the 18 mg nicotine City Lights is definitely an all day vaping choice for me. City Lights has an a rich and unique exotic flavor; which I find quite pleasing!
Thank you, Got Vapes!
Recently, I also tried a Blueberry sampler. After getting accustomed to vaping "blueberries"; I thoroughly enjoyed vaping the sampler.
