    I am not a big fruit vape guy, but love this Grape Ape enough to make a post about it.

    It reminds me of a grape bubblegum but better, the flavor is just right, has a grape tang to it, but not to much and really good sweetness to it, been vaping it pretty much non stop since it turned up today.

    So far I have only been dripping it on a 1.4ohm micro coil with cotton at 10watts, not messed with power settings, as just really enjoying it at that setting, plan to put it in a carto tank and a kayfun to see if any differences using them toppers later on :)

    The only down point, is it being a limited run, I will be sad when the bottle is gone and hope it will make regular come backs.

    Also thank you Clark for the awesome customer service as always, now appreciate it even more, now that I have tasted this juice :)

    The short-run flavors will be making a more regular and frequent rotation once the help is hired - right now I am so mired down in the production process of sanitizing/labeling/capping bottles bottles that it's the exception not the rule that I have time to do the short run stuff. I'd love to have a few up at all times, and make the short runs shorter in duration (a week or so) so we can rotate more frequently. I have so many good recipes in the bag it's nutty.

    Nailz, I'll agree with you, although I enjoy fruit flavors. My GA and Queen arrived today and I loaded ga in pt2 about 2 hours ago. Tank is empty. Flavor is grape...uh great! Finally someone that clicked all the boxes on what a grape should taste like. Winner here Clark!

    I really like that you can dial in about any grape you want - low wattage gives me concord style grape juice like Welches, the mid-range (8-10) is alot like a grape-soda, and very high wattage tastes like a jolly rancher (to me). YMMV. Glad you are digging it! Play with the wattage, it's fun. LOL

    Thanks for nothing people. Now I have to order more juice.

    Clark, why do you make this so hard? Put less effort into a batch here and there. Get some not so grape reviews and then perhaps my dead Presidents could spend a little more time together in my wallet.

    LOL - dead presidents!

    Took your suggestion and wowzer! Mid range is my preference. The lingering after-taste is nehi grape soda and damned it is good. Amazing how the flavor changes with + - wattage.

    Great job again Mr. Brooks, spent a fair amount of time vaping this and the Queen today. It's crazy how you can dial in the depth of both flavors. With the Ape you can go with a lighter grape or crank it up and get that lip smacking candy grape sweetness. Both my wallet and batteries are going to be drained before it's all said and done. 10/10 in my book.

    Grape Ape is most definitely a winner. What is this crazy wizardry you do to make them all so good? The tartness of the grape is in perfect balance with the sweetness. Not quite the fruit. Not quite a candy. Very good. I believe I like this one better than the QOH, at least today. Puffing these on newly made and wicked .65 ohm micro coils. Thank you sir, I will try to drip this one sparingly so as to see what it might become after a bit of steeping.

    ...and a Bababooey to you all

    As I'm barely scraping by with funds super tight right now, I'm happy to hear that some of these old flavors will be making more regular come-backs in the future.

    I love me some Grap3 Ap3, but am running pretty low, so I've been dripping it only and interspersing with Grape Cotton Candy to stretch my last 5ml out a little while longer.

    That said, I like it at all ranges, depending on my mood. I think I'm generally around 3.9 volts on my 1.3ohm coil (11.7 watts) so what's that considered in terms of range? I'm guessing it's mid to high, though I'm not sure what y'all consider high.

    So, I sashayed out to the mailbox at 4:40AM after realizing my NT order had shown up probably 16 hours before that time. Didn't really expect it until Monday so I hadn't checked on it. Grap3 customer service! I sniffed everything (of course) and stumbled to bed.

    Fast forward:
    Played the drip game with an elite gutted cartomizer & old 808D batt setup. Grap3 Ap3 is about to find its way into a tank for my vaping pleasure. Holy schmoly that's mmm mmm good!

    I love the mid-range, but you gotta try it on a fresh 18650 and a .45ohm dual coil. ZOINKS

    My tracking says mine should arrive Monday!! I got a 30ml bottle of Grape Ape and 2 15ml bottles of Betelgeuse and Gravity. Never had any of them and cant wait to try them!!

    I tried mixing Grap3 Ap3 with Gravity and it wasn't bad - I tried mixing it with Betelgeuse and I was pretty underwhelmed. I'd be curious what you think ckquatt if you get a chance to mix them a little.

    Hey CP! With your new assignment I don't suspect you'll be hurting in the liquid department. ;)

    You're one of the lucky ones that got your hands on the Grape Cotton Candy - I still have a tiny personal bottle but I am afraid to drip it. HAHA

    Grap3 Ap3 arrived today. Dripped some this evening and am not disappointed. Very smooth vape with full flavor at a higher wattage. Looking forward to tasting the entire flavor spectrum at different wattages. Good stuff!

    We'll work on the melon for ya Gator - glad the monkey business hit for you!
