I have AltCig in my notes and it looks like they have a promo going. My notes say it was recommended by MayLovesMetal (think I have a spelling error there?) Anyway, the suggested flavors were Churro, Raspberry Shortbread, Cinnamon Cheese Danish, Strawberries and Cream/Buttercake. At the time I wrote my note, they did do a free sample of your choice. Not sure how that will work with their current promo and I haven't been to their site in a bit to see if I have the flavor names down exactly right. HTH.

wow you have notes so good that they tell you who recommended it? Post those notes! Or can we at least refer to you when we want info?

I have been lurking on the site and if you spend $30 (I think) you get two 17 mls free
I am on a no buy

I pulled out my Grand Canyon Cheesecake from Southern Steam for whoever was asking about it. It's probably 6 weeks old, I got it the day it launched, which was beginning of March. Aaaaand...meh. Nothing to see here folks.

Let me know what you think-I am scared to get mine out now

Ok, so I tried mine, and well I don't taste any cheesecake at all. As a matter of fact, I don't really taste anything specific. All I get is a generic sweet taste, but nothing stands out. I checked and mine shipped on April 3, so it's only about 2 weeks old. I'm going to put it back in the box and try it again in about 2 more weeks. It feels like the flavor is trying to come out, but it's just not there yet. Hopefully a little longer steep will help.

LOL, I only kept notes on the flavors that interested me -- selfish, I know, so probably wouldn't help anyone else. And yep, I did try to write down who recommended a particular juice, so when I discovered someone with similar tastes in juice I could pretty much trust that a good review would mean I would most likely appreciate that flavor, too. I wasn't kidding when I said I get obsessed and jump in with both feet. If I get truly interested in something I go all in! Once I get this vaping thing figured out, I will be on to obsessing about something else! The desire to learn all about something just takes over and I can't help it. So yeah, I take notes, I figured everyone did! Sorry such a long answer!

Vaping some FSV Cherry Cheesecake. Bah. No cherry, def no cheesecake. It is a vague sweet tasting muddled blend of something. I also got the Serpents Plot, a Pomegranate, which is a lil bit better now, but far from knock your socks off. FSV Marshmallow is still meh also. I am so bummed because they are clean tasting juices, great CS but they are declining on my go to list d/t flavor fails. So far I have not noticed that they improve much with steeping. I'll always be a fan of The Nilsson and the Vanilla Mint, but I am not sure I will jump in on any of their new or other flavors. I think HB and TPR are at the top of my gourmet list now. Ahlusion has taken 3rd.

"We ran out of 30 ml bottles (whoops!), so we are hooking it up until we get more 30s/while supplies last.
Thanks for the love and support, folks!

2 X 20ml bottles fo' $13. Just select it in the bottle size box. No coupon code needed. Enjoy!"


This is good stuff-I really liked Teddy Pear & 1992, especially Teddy Pear although i can't guarantee that for everyone. I just ordered the blueberry cinnamon crumble.

I am back in the buying mode but I can't decide what flavors to get next. I just don't want to spend any more money on more flavors that collect dust in my box.
I am leaning towards:
TPR Lemon Chiffon, Gingersnap, Burley and Candy and Angel Sauce
Copper Creek Pumpkin Pie
Jet Fuel Strawberry Fields
Axiom Icicles
Nicquid Sublime

Doing some orders tonight.

just curious, has anyone else noticed that people are edgy, angry lately? I don't mean on here but in your daily life. I think it's partly the $***ty weather, it's snowing here right now and winter continues to drag on and on....

or maybe it was the lunar eclipse i don't know....and i can't taste my vapor and it's bumming me out.

Mmmm blueberry vanilla cake hitting the spot.

On the lines of TV, (I missed out last night) I love Scandal and Boardwalk Empire. And my trash tv is Real Housewives of NJ ;) I really want to cancel my cable. Does anyone have the roku box?

We have three. LOL, I absolutely love them! Can't recommend them enough.

Girl lemme tell ya. There was a home invasion in the ritziest neighborhood in town last night. Tenants beaten to death with bats. Then in a town 20 mins away, an older couple who was terminally ill had a murder suicide this morning (I think they were both in their 90s). Last week a guy tried to run over cops downtown, two weeks before a guy was shot and killed for dragging a police officer (had some drugs in car with him). Two bomb threats, in two weeks - one at the mall and one at walmart. Three bank robberies in the area as well. I swear everywhere is just going to hell in a handbasket - at least where I live!!! Aaaaand when I type all of that I am officially depressed. I did read the blood moons were in the bible - thought it was bs, sure enough looked it up and yep! Acts 2:20. Crazy stuff I tell ya. Anyway at least my vape tastes good :vapor:

I have noticed it.. we had 2 days of sun in Seattle and people were tense and disoriented.. like bears waking up from hibernation hungry and confused.. lol.. day 3 back to grey and rain and people are cranky, edgy, and yawning all day long! Like... what should I do?? Wake up or go back to sleep for another month..lol

Meant to ask you - one of my favorite authors uses your area as the setting in most of her books! I'd love to visit out there one day and ride that ferry! I LOVE ferries.

Love a good ferry ride.. on a clear day the view of Mt. Rainier from the Puget Sound is breathtaking. Plenty of islands to explore, great beach getaways and fab restaurants. Don't bother bringing sunscreen, lol...just an umbrella and wellies.

I find the cheesecake pleasant and i taste like a creamy cherry but no cheesecake. The marshmallow is blah. I don't get much from french vanilla either. The earl grey, banana colada, vanilla mint, white chocolate peppermint, and pineapple are ok but i wouldn't reorder most of those. I sniffed the maple bacon the other day and it still smells like raw bacon so i haven't given that a go again either.

Still LOVE nilsson, spiced pear, co kona nut, vanilla tobacco, and hibiscus-ginger-pear. The florals-imperial tea, jasmine, the lavender one, i like those when i'm in the mood for floral.
