Am I the only one that noticed that the glass bottles has made the juice taste better?? Every flavor I have had in the new glassthat I previously had in the old bottles tastes a tad different than it did in the plastic, but in a good way. The liquid seems to taste "cleaner" for lack of a better description. I noticed they seem to retain more of their natural sweetness.

My personal theory is it keeps the juices from contaminating each other while in storage. The plastic used in the old bottles is tough but still allows more vaporing off of the juice than in glass.
Though I haven't tested this theory as I am still working my way through my dragon's hoard of GCD in the plastic bottles.

Lets see, Nicoticket in Plastic = Awsome. Nicoticket in Glass=Awsome, I bet it will get better with some steep time, but mine never lasts that long anyway. But really I transfer it to a plastic needle tip to drip and fill anyway.
I transfer the juice to plastic dripper bottles when I am going to use it, but keep it stored in the glass. There is a definite difference in the flavor after storage for a month or more between the different bottles. Im not sure if the plastic absorbs some of the flavor, or chemicals or the taste of the plastic starts to seep into the juice, but it is noticeable to me.
Haven't noticed any difference in flavor but I do love the glass bottles. There's no question they store liquid better/safer/longer and they're beautiful. If I used a tank I'd possibly transfer to plastic for filling or use a syringe (PITA, in my opinion) - but I don't so filling is as easy as tipping the bottle. All props to glass in my book - sayonara plastic

I'm still not fond of not having droppers in the 30ml and 60ml bottles, I am working hard on that at some point in the future. Obviously we'll work through existing inventory, so it's not going to happen soon... but, eventually.

I believe the glass bottles will be a better representation of the product as opposed to the plastic bottles sitting on a B&M shelf. Clark is aware of the cap challenges and I'm sure he is working on a solution to perfect the glass bottles. Once that is addressed, NT will not only be the best looking bottle for sale, it will also contain the best juice in the stores. But what do I know about it???
I have found that these lids http://packagingoptionsdirect.com/20-400-continuous-thread-lined-black-phenolic-closure fit the 60 ml bottles perfectly. I use them on mah DIY bottles and since I order the lids by the 100 ct I have spares to swap out with the NT lids!
LDPE is slightly permeable to gases. Glass is not.
So, in theory, gases created by the flavoring agents and the like (as well as oxygen) can penetrate a LDPE bottle even if it's completely sealed (though in small quantities)
