Fendral - yes it is--were both only partially filled bottles?

Just got in another largeish sample order and will be putting up a longer review once I get around to vaping them all, I do have a question though.

Has anyone else gotten graham cracker or almonetto? I got a sample of both in this batch and they are perfectly clear with absolutely no smell. I filled a phoenix BC with the graham cracker and the only taste that I am getting is that of primer, then dripped some in an atty and got the same result.

I have yet to try the almonetto but also detect no smell at all from the bottle (and my vaping buddy gets the same smells/taste from them)

Is it possible I got an unflavored batch?

Yes that is star fruit : )

My :2c:

Strawberry Peach Smash: Delicious, getting just a hint of the peach, but that's ok because the strawberry flavor is really good. Right now I'm mixing it 50/50 with a Peach Pie flavor I got from another vendor that had too much "crust" flavor for me. The SPS makes it taste like what I think a pie flavored vape should taste like.

City Lights: Um... not for me. I taste pine and I just can't vape it at all. I ended up giving the rest of my sampler to a buddy and he likes it a lot.

Pear: What can I say? I like pears and I like this. Nice pure flavor with a nice bite at the end.

Berry Blue Bacco: I'm starting to think I really like fruity juices because, once again, this is good. The blueberry flavor is mellow, very natural tasting. There is a hint of tobacco, which is nice because I feel if it were any stronger it would kill the blueberry. I could vape this all day.

Colossal Caramel Bacco: Getting the same pine flavor as I got from City Lights, just not as strong so I'm going to revisit it in a week or so. I want to like it.

Americano: The best tobacco flavor I've had in my 8 weeks of vaping. This is a nice, simple tobacco. Tastes like smoking, lol. This and a Watermelon Bubblegum (from another vendor) went to work with me today and, as much as I like the watermelon, I've gone through 2ml of the Americano so far while the watermelon is about .5ml down. I'm vaping it as I write this.

50 State Salute: Haven't tried it yet because I was sent this

I think it might be Star Fruit? I'll give it a try soon either way :p

Have you tried coffee or tea flavored vapes? I'm not big on tea, but there are a couple of coffee type vapes in their lineup.
Not a good one. I've tried one coffee vape that was recommended, but honestly…I can't imagine someone getting the complexity from a good cup of black coffee right and having it appeal to people. Then again, there are times I feel like I'm the only person left who drinks black coffee.

Any suggestions?

I need to ask what is dragoncon...
Huge nerd fest. I go mostly for people watching and music. dragoncon.org

But on an adult bev vape try one of the classic bacco vapes
I haven't tried every tobacco vape, but is there anything that doesn't have that weird, disgusting(IMO), half-bright flavor that everything from dekang to city lights to highbrow and BWB have?

There are a few available as sample sizes. I've got rampage, berry blue bacco (something like that?), and something else I forgot on their way to me……probably the caramel tobacco thing someone mentioned. I'm giving them another try. I dripped some of what I have left of city lights after it sat around for a week or two, and it was a lot more enjoyable. Still not an all-day, but enjoyable.

I just got a sampler size, and I'm only about a quarter of the way through a sapphire, but this is my first take...

TH is good
Vapor is excellent
Flavor is the thing, isn't it? Well, this is the hardest of the Nectars to really nail down. (of the ones I've tried thus far) Definitely a tobacco note, and chocolate, not overwhelming, but kind of hiding in the shadows, you can see it from the corner of your eye, but if you look, it disappears. What follows a vape is a light wisp of ginger, maybe. and molasses, a brief hint of a ginger snap cookie, but not much of the bite of a ginger snap. It reminds me of a popular something I vaped once from another out of this world vendor, but I would have to try it again, as its been awhile.

Hmm.. That almost sounds like a very popular juice some little green guys with big eyes sell. (Not saying the name so I don't get in trouble with Chris or Dan). If you know which juice I'm talking about, how similar is it?

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.... ;)

Danno-

They were sample sized, but do appear that they may be less filled than the others, I have since tried the almonetto and it seems to be the same as the graham cracker. I know you are CRAZY busy with the raven fiasco, so not sure what if anything should be done about them.

hi all. I got a sampler of GV juice in my last order to see if I could do the pg and get away from my all vg carto clogging juice. I got the butterscotch because I love butterscotch. Loaded into my little shorties to try. So, can barely taste it??? My vg has strong flavor and I thought pg was supose to be better on flavor so I am a little confused. I know that the sample is not as strong on nic as I do, but I do not think that would affect flavor? Any advise or input welcome.

PG does carry more flavor than VG does... but for your comparison to be valid, you would have needed to order the same juice from the same vendor with the only difference being the PG and VG ratios

I love the BS. I am in the middle of my second 36ml bottle now. Both bottles had good flavor from the start but they do get better steeping. Try leaving the cap and tip off of the bottle for a day or two and let it air out and see if that helps. Also good to give them a daily shake up when steeping too. I usually just put a small piece of tinfoil on my finger and hold that on the bottle while shaking. Much easier than putting the tip back in and screwing the cap on. Some people swear it has to be in the dark but I have never bothered with that for the short term.

Also VG is said to have a sweeter taste by itself. If you have any DIY sweetener maybe add 1 drop to it.
