I ordered a bunch of Gourmet Vapor juices during a 50% off sale and had a mixed experience. I'm going to make a second order and wanted some input first. Hopefully someone has tried the flavors I have questions about:

I got 'sour apple pucker' which smelled great, but had no taste in a LR carto on my eGo or on a LR atty on my Reo mini. I realize that some people like higher resistance for fruit flavors, but LR is all I have at the moment. I'm ordering the straight green apple this time, and was wondering if I should get double flavor, or if it would be overpowering.

I also ordered the 'watermellon jollyrancher' and enjoyed it. I noticed though, that there is a separate listing for 'watermelon jolly rancher.' The first one I ordered had just watermelon and peach flavors, but the other one adds champagne and blueberry(I think). Has anyone tried both of these? Which one was better?

I realize that taste is subjective and I should just experiment myself, but I'm trying not to order a bunch of samples which might or might not be any good. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

I haven't tried those flavors but to be honest. Gourmet Vapors is a complete gamble since most of those juices have been concocted by almost everyone that shops there. Going more in depth with how that happens. They give an option of making your own flavor and those are added to their line-up. So, there are a LOT of bad juices on there.

As for the doubling the flavor of your juice. That's what I usually do because I find that a lot of juices lack flavor. It won't be to strong IMO and sometimes I chose the triple flavor option which can be overkill depending on what you choose.

If you have VG or PG you can always dilute it a bit if the double is too strong. Some flavors like Blackberry Brandy were great doubled and still good diluted 30%, other flavors like Maiden Coffee were way too strong and bitter as doubles to me. If you are a strong flavor person, definitely double. If you like more subtle flavor, single is tasty too.

I've been using "watermelon jollyrancher" and I'm having a weird problem with it - I like the taste of it, but it seems that I can only use it ones, and then if I refill the same tank with it again, it changes taste to something really nasty... even the color of the juice goes orange instead of pink? So I have to clean my atomizer and start from scratch every time I use that juice:blink:

That's what I'm a little worried about. I ordered a bunch of juice from Honeyville which I think is owned by the same comp. I got Watermelon Candy and it was odd. All my juice from them is orange, even the mint which is weird. I'm wondering if the nicotine is old. I know that can get yellow if it's old.

Every single one of my Honeyville juices are orange. A couple are red-orange but all in the orange family.

I got mint, chocolate cheesecake, watermelon candy and a couple others. None you would think would be orange. Very odd. I just got a bunch of samples to try and half of them I haven't even tried yet so I don't know how they taste. But the color of the juice is 'different'. :laugh:
