Alt-Cig's Gooey Butter Cake is really growing on me! It tastes very similar to Nite Lite Vapor's Vanilla Strait, to me.

Nice review! I like your style.
I grew up in St. Louis, and vaguely remember eating GBC as a child. That was 45 years ago, so I've lost all conception of what it's all about. I've never even tried a flavor that's close to this. Maybe I'll give one a try.
BTW, interesting that your top pick has the highest nic content, and also the highest VG content.

Good eye, John. I doubt that the slightly higher VG content meant much to me (after all, I liked AltCig more in part because it was less sweet than VAL, even though VG is presumed to add sweetness. On the other hand, the extra nic might really be a factor.
Basically, you can ignore my rankings. Rankings are just a device to increase TV ratings---pandering to the "Beauty Contest" mentality---or, in this case, to stimulate thread conversation. LOL. All four of the GBCs reviewed in the thread are good juices. Which one you like best will be based on variables too personal and too numerous for us to even know, much less list.
Bill was referring to NLV's Caparillo Cafe Latte, which I had offered as the one-and-only exact match to a complex coffee description a previous poster had inquired about.

my apologies.. that was a pre-coffee brainfart.
i'm making coffee now.
Cleaning out my juice stash I found a 6 month old bottle of GBC from VAL.
Don't know how that happened...tis good!

KBV was the first place I ordered gooey butter cake from. It was good at first but after steeping it wasnt so great. Seems like KBV juices do not hold up very well after a week or two of steeping. My vapealicious gooey butter cake came yesterday. It's better then KBV but a little to sweet. I'm placing an order tomorrow for alt cig's gooey butter cake. Still looking for a juice vendor to order all my juices from. Tired of wasting money.
I've tried KBV's version and like many of their juices it has an "oily" undertone that disagrees with me. I have never had actual GBC which is a shame because it sounds like the most awesome thing in the world. I mean really, "Gooey Butter Cake"? There's not a single word in there I don't like
Wicked - After a few months, I still LOVE Alt-Cig's Gooey Butter Cake -- like Vanilla Strait, though, it does tend to burn if you're not careful. I also really like Alt-Cig's Horchata and Spiced Cookie.
I have s 30 ml of gbc from KBV and waited for a month for it to steep and idk what the heck is wrong with it. It smells absolutely divine, but there is some sort of aftertaste I just can't get past and it's killing me not to be able to vape it. Thankfully I have my favorite Altcig version so I am not without a gbc altogether. Has anyone else gotten gbc lately that is off?

Trying to think, Lethalp. I did buy KBV Gooey Butter. I liked it okay, but not nearly as well as Alt Cig if I remember correctly. I think I'll buy another bottle next time I order from KBV to refresh my memory.
Sandybeach,
I hope I really like altcigs GBC, and the other juices I ordered. My only crap about most juices is that you either have to let steep for weeks or there good out the gate and after a week or two there horrible. Another thing does anybody get that wet throat hit from vapealicious GBC? Pbusardo had mention it in his review and I get the same thing. Sometimes it can be a little off setting.

Wicked - I like AltCigs juices best when they are fresh. I do not buy juices that need to be steeped. I think it's the vendor's job to send them out properly steeped -- unless they are a onesy twosey custom juice blender - then I guess they have to send it unsteeped.
Sandybeach,
I agree with you. When i receive my juices they should be ready to go. I've had some juices that where really bad when I received them and the vendor's response was let it steep for a week or two. Hopefully I will get my GBC from altcigs soon so I can give my 2 cents on it.

Wicked, my experience has been, if they suck when you first open them, they'll suck 20% less after a couple of weeks.

I've had some juices that suck when you first open them, and become divine after steeping. And I mean, about three days or so, not a year... Just saying...

Same here, only in my case, the steep time is more like a month . . .
