I've actually come to like the dropper. Maybe we can work in both or at least make it available for a small extra purchase.

I like the dropper too. With a big bottle it's kinda unwieldy to swing it around to drip into the carto. An optional "shnozzle" is a great idea.

I'm wondering: are you guys going to ever have trial-size bottles? I know your juice is very well priced, but it's still kinda a lot for me if I don't like the juice, ya know?

Though it looks like I'll have to try the Pear. I like pears, and I now have faith, having tried the CA.

Oh, just a note to the general public: chocolate milk kills the flavor of the vape. Just thought I'd mention it. LOL

Caramel Apple-So I had a bottle that got lost behind my dresser for better than a month, so I finally got to try some that has been well steeped, normally I just vape it too quickly. The main difference, besides the obligatory darkening is that the caramel notes are much more present, the balance kind of shifts from more apple to more caramel.

(BTW, how special do I feel that "MY" thread ended up a sticky :D )

So - those Italian juices: anyone try them yet and want to share?

I tried Bright Tobacco. I haven't been into tobacco flavors lately, but having tried this, I think I do more of them for a bit.

It tastes *exactly* like a cig to me. I detect no additional flavors, just cigarette tobacco. I like it, in principle, but, strangely, when I plopped it in a Stardust, it came out *way* stronger than in my try-out dripping atty. I guess the atty needs replacing. It's vintage 2009, and never been cleaned - amazing, ain't it? God only knows what's in there...

I thinned it out with Ecopure - and it's *still* strong. LOL I'll have to half it yet again. I normally like very strong flavors, but I think this one would be better for me if it was subtler.

Anyway, if you like higher note tobaccos, you might enjoy this one. It's pretty much exactly what it's supposed to be.

Anyone try fruit flavors from that line? I'm curious.

There is a thread all on those juices

My favorite of the ones I have tried is the coffee.

Do you like coffee juices in general? I love coffee, and I've been looking for a good one, but I'm at the point where I'm actually afraid to try anymore... Every single one I tried tasted like a week old burnt coffee filter, and it took over my house to boot - I mean it invaded and stayed for a week even after I tossed it out as a saboteur that it was.

The only coffee flavor I found acceptable - and that only just (I didn't order a second bottle) - was the VV Kona Milkshake one. But that one screws up the cartos and clearos and atomizers. Plus, all VV juices have this funny-ish smell that I can't quite figure out, but it's getting on my nerves lately.

One of the reasons I like CA was because it's *honest* and straight-forward: it smells and tastes as what it's supposed to be. It's clean.

Cafe de Creme looks tempting, especially after my success with Car. Apple - but I dunno... What does it taste like? Is the coffee very strong? And what kind of coffee? Wax poetic for me, please - I know you like it, Erin... :)

BTW - I just heard on PBS that people who drink coffee are less likely to die. And the more the better apparently. I wonder if it works for vape?

I love coffee but have had trouble finding the right coffee vape and absolutely disastrous results from trying to DIY it, calling it skunk piss was probably to high of a compliment.

I haven't tried the NEW cafe de Creme but am planning to do so with my next order assuming some is in stock. I loved the flavor, but not so much how fast it gunked up coils. SO I am hopeful for this incarnation.

The Liqua coffee however is a different breed altogether. It is a no frills plain black coffee, feels about what I would call a medium roast. I like it because I can vape it straight, or doctor it like I would a real cup of coffee, a bit of creamer drops and/or sweetener drops to taste.

Hm. That sounds promising. Doctoring it up myself is a great idea. I'm thinking some cream and vanilla would be good, and I could make is subtle if I want... I'll definitely order some next time. Thanks! :)

You guys are insane.
I am so paranoid when I go to fill/top off that I will tip the bottle over somehow.
I've dumped 30 ml of juice before from an open bottle. It was quite tragic.


Update on smarty:
The juice has steeped kind of weirdly. When I got the bottle the liquid was pretty much clear. Now the liquid is pinkish. The juice also seems to have gone a little blander.

Can you double the flavors? I really need less PG. I actually prefer to end up with 35/65. At a minimum 50/50. If you can double the flavors I can double it with un-flavored VG to end up with 35/65. Hopefully the flavors will maintain with the dilution. But of course, you can actually solve my dilema by offering custom PG/VG blends. I am sure there are many more out there that are not too fond of PG. I am enjoying your Sugar Pear halved with a Peach from another vendor. It is AWESOME. Try it, you may use that as a future flavor at Got Vapes. Anyway after two days of the 70/30 my throat is getting on the sore side and will need to switch to a lesser PG vape for a while.

I don't know if this applies to anyone but me, but I thought I'd share this piece of information just in case:

I used to vape mostly VG - meaning that, at most, my juices contained 30% PG. Then I wanted to do more PG, mainly because I was sick and tired of fighting with carto/juice combinations. At first my throat got sore. But in three days it passed. Now I pretty much settled to 50/50, but I'm thinking maybe PG dries the throat out a bit more? I dunno, I do get used to it pretty quickly though...
