I have a few that are 8 months or so and they are great

I guess the oldest things I have are some things I first ordered online back in like October a month after i started vaping: Virgin Vapors-bed of roses, that one is still the same. And High Desert vapes which is also the same still (most of those didn't develop much flavor-the one thing that was pretty good though were the tea flavored ones). And some AIV which actually improved. And Highbrow Vapor which also improved over time.

Guess I shouldn't be so worried.

Not loving the Burley and Candy so far. May need a steep, but the tobacco flavor is not good to me. I just can't get over the hump with that the specific smell and taste. The candy part is mostly non-descript, maybe a bit of pixie stix going on there?, nonetheless..it's the only saving grace for this 'tobacco'. A funky overpowering taste and aroma that reminds me nothing of tobacco. Ug. I had high hopes for this one.
Dont lose hope yet pipster, I think we all need to steep it... Mine has almost no flavor as well, yet my old bottle is excellent still.. The sample I first got was a month old already, but seemed like it still needed about 2 weeks before it really shined. I went ahead and emailed TPR even though I said I wouldnt. I got to thinkin, and figured it might really be that old and maybe reverse steeped?

that sure is a cute cat, i miss having cats so much! I fostered dogs for a while and this one got so crazy and excited every time he was gonna go for a walk that one time when i was standing bent over tying my shoes he popped up and beaned me in the eye hard with his bony head and the next day i had a huge black eye, then everywhere i went people looked at me funny and asked me if i was "ok", and stuff, and some people didn't believe that a dog gave me a black eye "yeah that dog must have been the two-legged kind, har har" .

I'm vaping various flavors trying to decide which to get rid of and sell/trade again. I'd love to trade off a bunch of lesser loved juice for my favorite things-i think i could be pretty happy with just like 20 favorite flavors all together really.

I just have this paranoia about letting stuff sit too long even though none of it is all that old. what's the oldest juice anyone here has vaped? And was it still good?
I vaped some 36 mg stuff in 2012 that I'd had since 2009, just to see. It had a refrigerator taste, besides that no ill effects. I read in diy thread that after 2 years @ room temp, less than 1% of nic degrades. So it'll lose little potency, but I dont think itll get dangerous to vape...

I have some G2 original I can send your way.


So in the mail is a nitecore i4 charger and a pair of sony vtc 5 batteries to go in the new sentinel m16 I got in the today (thanks lotus).

On a side note, just tore into a bag of mystery doritos number 855. If you like buffalo wings, blue cheese and sriracha these are fir you. My nose is still running.
You tried the honey thing yet? I have heard from old farmers that it works... When my elders speak I listen, because they've had all their lives to learn.

I'm more concerned about flavor changing than anything. What do you mean by 'refrigerator taste'? Sounds kinda bad...lol

What flavor is the G2 supposed to be? Haven't tried any of that line before.

Ewww... Blue cheese

I agree....EWWWW! I hate blue cheese with a passion!

It was before I started my no plastic policy, I think it was from plastic leaching/ garlic/onion smell absorption thru plastic

And double ewwww on that! Yuck!

Its anise plus Apple

"G2 Original

Green apple meets absinthe, they dance with the devil in the pale moonlight. Enjoy some beverages, vape some G2 and their passion is sure to please you. Multiple layers of sweet and tart apples blended with absinthe and anise. There are many hidden gems in this vape and none have identified them all to date. "

Good morning vapers. I have had a kinda crappy vape night. Been like this since yesterday evening...nothing hitting the vspot lol.:grr:

Morning review:

Ahlusion Tarte Tatin Apple
Tastes like fresh apples tossed in lemon juice to keep them from browning and sprinkled lightly with cinnamon and sugar then layered in a very thin crust

TPR Dutch Crumb Apple Pie
This tastes more like canned apples so of course heavier on the sugar and spices w/a crumble topping

Can you tell I bake? Hope you have a great vape day! :vapor:

Okay so I think I'm on a new kick...my throat/lungs have been feeling weird the last few days (of course it couldn't have ANYTHING to do with all this yellow stuff floating around off the trees right?!) so I've decided to cut out cinnamon vapes - at least for awhile. I'm sure I'm just being paranoid. But I soo had my rotation going for my day. Hmph. I'll just have to find some more vapes that go well with my morning coffee. I just think chain vaping a bakery cinnamon vape for half the day can't be good. Ahh good ole' paranoia.

I haven't even slept yet... Having a bad sleep day.. as usual. All attempts to rebuild a dual coiled Protank head have failed. It wicks but tastes like crap... barely any vapor. I may need to stick with the prepackaged heads

They say those are the hardest I guess because they are so small.

The regular heads I was able to rebuild just fine... so the size doesn't bother me... It's just not wicking right... the flavor isn't right. Maybe the ReadyWick just isn't good with it. I tried it and the Ekowool. I don't think I've tried regular silica yet or the new wick that should be arriving any day now. We'll see.

Hmmmm...not sure how that'd be. While I love licorice, that taste in a vape just doesn't appeal to me for some reason, so I've stayed away from anything that says it's in there.
