I just got a 36 ml sampler from GLV a few days ago. I ordered 4 36 ml and I received 3 36 ml and 1 huge bottle of Newminsters. I was pretty worried that I would be stuck with a 70 ml bottle of a flavor I didn't dig, but I actually liked it straight out of the mailbox. Normally, I don't particularly care much for blackberries, but I can't figure out what is making me like the tartness of this. It definitely has a cocktail note, so maybe that is why it's so interesting. Anyways, this is gonna take forever to steep, but I'm very excited to see how this tastes with some age.
glv....goodlife...thoughts on these?

Just took delivery of 8 sample bottles. Prior to delivery I contacted GLV, great response time, asked them about their preferred steeping method, they said 1 week bottle sealed in a cool dry place. Going to follow their advice but its so hard to know I have 8 GLVs sitting in my vape drawer!
Ordered: shivering zebra, eves mistake, orange tac, magic fairy, deadly sin, melon boba, zombie blood w/ menthol, and blueberry morning. Hoping to get an ADV and some solid backups out of this. Will order a sample of EK if these workout as well as I hope.
Tune in next monday for the first review!

Tune in next monday for the first review!
Steeped my GLVs for a week as stated above and started testing them out. Devices varied between ProTank w/ 2.2ohm, iSmoka BCC w/ 2.2ohm and Octopus RDA w/ 2.0-2.2ohm.
Shivering Zebra: Love it, it does taste like zebra gum and the menthol hit is perfect for me. This is now in ADV rotation.
Blueberry Morning: Haven't had an excuse to try this one, the smell turned me off for now, will come back to it on a lazy Sunday morning.
Eves Mistake: I didn't get too much out of this for now, going to continue to let it steep. It tasted like apples but not too strong.
Orange Tac: Candy orange flavor much like a tac but didn't have enough for me to consider to keep vaping it or want to buy another, not a total waste.
Deadly Sin: LOVE IT, tastes like a rice cripy graham cracker cinnamon, not getting much tobacco out of it but i'm fine with it, tastes perfect as it is. I kept having to change my voltage as I vaped it though as it seemed to be sensitive to chain vaping and getting really hot vapes but that is the only negative. This made it into ADV rotation.
Melon Boba: Again, didn't get too much out of it, none of the menthol after taste and not too strong of a melon either, going to keep it steeping and come back to it, the smell has changed a lot over the past week so I suspect it will get better. This juice also had a lot of hype so think I was too amped for it.
Zombie Blood: Like everyone says it tastes like an red gummy bear, but good luck getting the smell/taste out of your device. Never had to clean my device longer than this juice. Didn't hit ADV status.
Really glad about the outcome of my order, between Shivering Zebra and Deadly Sin it was all worth it, still hoping Eve's Mistake and Melon Boba come around. The other two were fantastic.
I just tried them for the first time too. Deadly sin, baja breeze, melon boba, and plane jane. I didnt steep them at all (personally think its really pointless to leave a sealed bottle somewhere when it was sealed in the mail for the 2-8 days it takes to get to you 
) they were all perfect right out of the mail. They didnt change at all since then (about two weeks ago) dont wait a week, try it.

Hows Plain Jane? A good juice, worthy of reorder?
I am not a huge vanilla fan, so I wasnt searching for one (free sample of it) but for what its worth it was very spot on as far as vanilla taste goes.. very smooth.
Tried Freak Show, El Kamino, and Newminster 23
The Newminster goes great with a beer or whiskey. Briny. Reminds me of brandy and something sweet and dark. Dark cherry? Something like that. There's a definite tobacco taste but I doesn't taste like a cigarette. They describe it as pipe tobacco but I've never smoked a pipe in my life so I wouldn't know. Tasty and slightly sweet. I like it and will be smoking it plenty.
Freak Show is weird I don't know how I feel about it yet. Orange and chocolate vape. It's exactly what it sounds like. What I get from a lot of other positive reviews is "this combo tastes better than it sounds." I don' know myself yet. It's o.k. Nothing i'll be vaping all day .
El Kamino is a wonderful tasting juice. Think black n mild cigar with a hint of cocoa and graham. It's a pleasant alternative to something like Halo's Tribeca (I like this one much better though). I've been having a hard time putting it down.

I got my first sample order today.
El Kamino is a very nice Black and Mild with a RY4-ish note. There's a slight juicey-fruit taste that comes on the exhale that I can't put my finger on. Whatever it is doesn't belong. Will let it steep a week.
Saspirilla has fizz just like they said. Fun one and a change of pace for me.
Melon Boba is gag-able. Guess I'm not a melon guy.. The mint or menthol note with the melon reminds me of the scented floor dry they used on puke when I was in school.
Deadly Sin has way more going on than I could figure out in the hour before I put it down due to sweetness overload. I have a feeling it will really be good in a week. It is certainly unique. it smells like two things and tastes like ten others. Another fun one.
All of them had a slight candy flavored note from the mailbox that I hope will dissapate after a little steeping.

I can't get over how good Yoplay and Nana's Nuts are. Pink Cupcakes too! The only juice that hasn't wowed me from GLV so far is Red Headed ..... I haven't tried it in a while. It might be good and steeped by now so it might have gotten better.

I've spent some more time with El Kamino and Deadly Sin today. El Kamino has a flavor I like for sure but there is still an unrefined quality and candy like flavor to it that I don't quite care for. Into the steeping box it goes. I do have hope for it but will wait a week to see if it develops..
Deadly Sin is truly unique. At the beginning it hit me hard with a sweet jungle juice like punch that was a little juvenile tasting. Kind of like mixing all the punch and cake leftovers together after a kids birthday party. Just overnight and with a little fresh air it has developed to where I get a decent tobacco mixed with several unidentifiable juicy fruit type flavors on the inhale, followed by an unmistakable Pillsbury cinnamon roll note on the exhale, complete with icing. A little scratchy in the throat after the exhale. Again, I have a feeling there will be more to this one after a few more days. This reminds me of a gal I used to stop and see whenever I was in town years ago. She wasn't pretty, didn't have much personality, but boy did she keep me coming back for more. ;-)

I'm vaping pink cupcakes right now and really enjoy it. I couldn't vape it all day but it is a nice desert vape. I'm addicted to deadly sin. I ordered some more samples and a big bottle of deadly sin. I don't care much for the tobacco flavors but I'm going to have to try EK on my next order.
I have plain jane and pink cupcake. Fresh out of the mail box they had almost no scent, especially the plain jane. It's been a few days now and they're getting some smell, pink cupcake more so. I've only tried the pink cupcake. It's still pretty light tasting. Hoping this changes with some age, as I like the flavor, I just want more out of it.
Another order placed with GLV...previous order was melon boba, el kamino, and zombie blood..zombie blood was a def reorder..melon boba throat hit was a little harsh even at 12mg for me, but enjoyable once cut with some menthol. And El Kamino, I do not like it at all. It's been steeping for about three weeks now and I notice if I don't like it in the beginning, I won't like it steeped.
New order consists of Baja Breeze, Dorkie Pattie, Extreme Mint, Frozen GA Peaches, Ice Ice Baby, and Zombie blood (36ML). I enjoy menthol quite a bit so hopefully these are keepers.

Baja Breeze was decent. I've finished most of the 11ml bottle. i'm going to reorder with the "a little bit" of menthol option and I'm thinking it would be a bit better.
I'm still *somewhat* on the fence about reordering Deadly Sin and El Kamino, but just going to go ahead and get them in 36ml bottles along with 72ml of Melon Boba.
I will say, out of the about 60+ flavors I've ordered since I've started vaping, I've only completely finished the bottles of 5 flavors. GLV consists of 3 of those 5.
GLV makes me want to branch out and am thinking of trying: Magic Fairy, Zombie Blood and maybe YoPlay Parlay.

**UPDATE**
I let the flavors I didn't originally like steep for a bit as well as ordered a few more flavors from GLV. Tried the ones I didn't like again and still didn't like them but I was primarily using Clearos (iSmoka BCC, ProTank) and an Octopus RDA for these. I got a bunch of SmokTech 1.8/1.9ohm standard length cartos in the vapemail and I said what the hell let me load them up and try again. Running off a SID @ 7.5-8.5W depending on juice SUCH a good decision, these flavors really come alive in cartos IMHO. Now I need to order carto-tanks to load them up into.
Melon Boba: Menthol and fruits came out in the carto like no other device I used, love the taste now
Black Fairy: I like this a lot as well, a little anise aftertaste is nice, I'll have to be in the mood for it but I can sit on this vape for a while.
Blueberry Morning: Yep it tastes like blueberry muffin/waffle in the morning, going to keep a carto filled for my morning vaping
El Kamino: I like Deadly Sin more, getting a oat bran banana muffin taste which isn't bad but wasn't crazy about
I still think Shivering Zebra and Deadly Sin work nicer in my Clearo's than they do cartos (EMDCC), no idea why, just my viewpoint on it. Those are my two current favorites but Melon Boba in a carto is now in this list as well.
I also got Magic Fairy, Atom Bomb, Orange Tac, Sarsaparilla, Red Headed .... left to try for the first time, going to throw Eve's mistake into a carto as well. More on this later.
GLV has made it to be my favorite vendor now with consistent hits after a little experimentation. Happy Vaping!
So I didn't notice until today, but looks like they got a new line of "Premium" juices, the Virtu Line.
Consists of
Breathless Mahoney - Watermelon juice
Cozmic Crunch - Berries w/ Captain Crunch juice
Juicy Joose - Juicy Fruit juice I'm guessing
Panty Dropper - Raspberry w/ Pomegranate and other "hidden flavors"
Sweet Criminal - Melon w/ Pineapple & Mint
Definitely making Cozmic Crunch part of the sampler I'll be ordering.. once El K comes back in stock

.El Kamino has become my all day vape. The flavor and throat his is exactly what I was looking for when I started vaping. I do wish that fresh baked banana bread taste wasn't in there. It's by far my favorite "tobacco" vape I've tried, as everything else tastes like graham crackers and sugar and nothing like actual tobacco. This tastes kinda like a decent black n mild and I like it.
Zombie Blood is a fav of mine when I'm in the mood for a sweet vape. Its been the best "gummi bear" favor I've tried.

I love this vendor and most of their juices but there were a couple I didn't particularly like and Sweet Criminal was one of them. It is very very sweet to me (duh right?) bordering on sickening though. I personally taste mostly the pineapple and too much of that really sweetens it beyond what I can do. I'm letting it steep for a while though as I only got it a little over a week ago.
Black Fairy - I didn't like this one initially. I liked the anise but the blackberry was a bit of an odd taste to my system. But after steeping and trying it again, it's really growing on me. Even though it is the same base as Magic Fairy (the one that's comparable to Pluid), it has such a different taste...which is good.
Baja Breeze - I am steeping because I might be too harsh on the fruity vapes as most come across as too sweet to me.
Deadly Sin - This made it to a tank. It is delicious and spot-on Cinnamon Roll. Even the smell is spectacular. Definitely an ADV and I'll reorder this.
Melon Boba - Another good one. Fruity but less sweet than the others. The color is darkening as it steeps so I can't wait to try this in a week or two.
Strawberry Obsession - The name says it all. This is pure strawberry creaminess. Love this one too and it gets better every day.
