So excited! Looks like my KFL+ clone I ordered on Saturday is being delivered tomorrow. Can't wait to give it a try! But gee, which juice will I grace it with? So many to choose from...decisions, decisions. :D
I christened the reo in with AHL the day I got it:) Maybe load it up w some lime cream, I know you like that one a lot..

If you like cantaloupe as well, try mr sweets- mile high club. Good tropical fruity flavor.

Great thanks for the recommendation. I've only tried watermelon flavors so far. I've got some honeydew flavor coming, but need to pick up a cantaloupe.

And for the off topic yet on topic part of this message - plus a wink to the moderating of the "other" thread: my favorite melon of all time to eat is a hybrid of cantaloupe and honeydew called Galia. If you ever see them at the market - well you'll smell them first, they smell like fresh sweet flowers when they are ripe - buy ONE. Take it home, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and eat it with a spoon. Right away. Forget dinner, forget dessert. Just eat that melon!

Guess after this I'll have an idea if I like Five Pawns or not, lol. I'm getting a headache sitting here smelling it contemplating whether I should fire one up or just let it all sit a couple weeks. Only have 4ml samples of their entire line so not much room for error for testing.

wow you the old and new line both huh? what is in the bigger bottles?

I'm curious to hear what you think of the mixology line

How's that Nevermore?

I have a lot of gourmet juices, and the nevermore is by far the best vape I've ever had.

Mother's milk get old after a while, and so does all the space jam stuff. Gremlin is good on occasion. Wasn't a fan at all of the namber juices. Didn't like a single one of the five pawns. I guess I am a bit of a juice snob. But I tell everyone that the nevermore by the sea is one of the best juices out there.

Can anyone recommend a decent gourmet-style vendor that offers juice that's heavy on the VG or all VG? I'm already a fan of VCV's stuff, but not Free State so much.

Well I'm sure it is obvious I would recommend these guys since I'm a fangirl though I like a lot of juice by a lot of other vendors: The Vape Kitchen is all 100% VG. The Kratom thing - I didn't know about it until it came up on the "other" thread, and I don't get it in my juice. And I wouldn't call every flavor I've gotten from them a home run, but I have several favorites from there.

My faves from The Vape Kitchen:
Peanut Butter Cookie
Coffee Toffee Tobacco
Coconut Lychee
Key Lime Pie
Lychee - I use this one as a mixer more often than on its own. I like ALL lychee juice from all vendors I think.
Root Beer Float
and I'm liking the Strawberry Panna Cotta (I forget the actual name but it is one of their custard flavors). That one has to steep so not sure if it will be THE ONE of my custards but it's pretty good.
Lebowski is really growing on me
Thai Iced Tea actually tastes like Thai Iced Tea but it has a little more throat hit than I like due to the spices I think. I still vape it pretty regularly.

They use glass bottles with droppers for 15 and 30 ml product. They package samples in 10 ml squeezies. Request the flavor(s) you want for your samples and you're likely to get what you asked for and more. If you reorder you'll get samples whether you ask for them or not.

They offer 3 mg which I like for all day vapes

Critical comments on them.
I do not like their orange flavors but I'm learning that orange es no bueno for me.
Their straight up berry flavors taste too much like fruit candy than fresh fruit for my taste - Real Strawberry tastes like not real strawberry.
Their cheesecake has way more fruit than cheesecake flavor and I'd prefer it the other way around.

And I prefer 100% VG that hasn't been thinned out with water (ahem Velvet Cloud) so if anyone has other recommendations, I'm listening!

I hope you're in the like 5p camp bro, Thats a big first order. I like how they load their samples in glass. i also like the tube they put big bottles in. Reminds me of the ones that drill bits and endmills and other machine tools come in.
Let's just say we couldn't have gotten off to a better start! I loaded a little bit of fith rank from their newer mixology line into another new mini pt3 I picked up today. I'm tasting bold flavor like never before. A strong inhale of menthol with a complex explosion of lime, cream, and vanilla notes on the exhale. Wow! I'm a bit taken aback at this point. I have never experienced anything quite like this.

I think em_elle may be right. I don't think you want to chain vape these. I have a sense of a little lip sting on this one as well, but it's like I don't mind, lol. Feels like breaking out the good stuff after dinner. It's like you don't have to vape as much. A drag here and there will suffice it's so bold.

Man this is my biggest fear so far, that I'd actually like it. Sheesh! I feel like such a hypocrite!

I've found five pawns sneaks up on you, at first I thought snow whites demise was the better apple pie, but now I'm solidly in the gambit camp. However it's also the only five pawns I can vape all day, not that the others are bad, they just are not in my flavor profile.

Four Nick Kate haha I want that for my license plate except I'd probably get pulled over all the time LOL!

I've been chain vaping Gambit today. It tastes like what it says it tastes like. I really like Five Pawns though to be honest I wanted to be a hater. I wanted to believe they were all flash in the pan and fools gold in the vapor but their product is the real deal. I know I'm paying more for packaging, but it is part of the experience and it DOES make a difference to me, much as I hate to admit it.

I'm not ready to review yet obviously but my first impression is that these are going to change my vaping philosophy. I used to think ADV was the best rank you could give to a juice. That meant it was of highest quality. Not anymore. I can already tell I would probably not vape this fifth rank all day, but I can't imagine anything better for an hour here and there, after dinner, late night, etc. Big throat hit too and I only got 6mg.

I had it for 2 weeks as the plate on my Harley, then I got a letter from the state saying "we made a mistake and you'll have to surrender it" it was a fun 2 weeks though, lots of honks ;)

Yeah if you like menthol and lime, can't imagine you not liking it.

Edit- been vaping it for 30 min now and going to put it down or I feel like I may get a huge headache. Definitely something bizarre with these compared to anything else I've vaped.
