After back to back server crashes for 2 hours straight. I finally got my hands on not 1, not 2, but 3 100ML of GRANTS VANILLA CUSTARD. 2 VG100/0 & 1 VG80/20 blend with 6mg nic. Super juiced to try this ejuoce for the first time eapecially one being a Vanilla Custard fan. I hear this is the VC of all VC's. Has anyone tried GBC before?! Give me an honest summarized review about this in which blend and nic level.

GVC is my absolute favorite eliquid - definitely an ADV for me. It's a pain to get once a month in the wee hours of the morning and it goes quick so I similarly get 300ml at a time. I get the 6mg 50/50 blend and use it in a KFL and GP Spheroid. It's hard for me to review it since taste is so subjective. I've tried a few other custards and they seem to contain dulce de leche which I don't like the taste of. I wouldn't have bought so much of a liquid that I've never tried before but according to my taste buds you should be fine.

i've done extensive research before going with GVC. I know theres Big Willies, CLS (which i've tried), Mt. Baker and so many others who claim that they are the best, but so far GVC is the one that seems to stand out based on consumer reviews. Yes, i agree that 1 month per order is a crazy thing esp when its like 1AM depending where youre ordering from. But i should be expecting it pretty soon. Maybe the next week or so. Thank you for your feedback!

My first GVC turned up today, 100ml ordered, already pre-steeped so no worry about dropping it straight into an atty.

Thoughts..... Well being a custard fan I was really looking forward to it! Having tried so many before I had high hopes but have to admit im a little disappointed! I'm not saying its a horrible juice but don't understand where all the hype extends from. Plenty of other liquids out there which are as nice if not better. One in particular worth trying for you custard fans is Cardinals Vaults which is available in a V1 and V2 version plus can be made to every custom level you can think of. Brewed by another UK company called Ciggyjuice it's definitely worth trying - the benefit with Ciggyjuice Juice is they also offer trial sizes which I believe are 2.5mls so no longer need to waste money should you not like the juice. Super fast shipment and available any day of of the week.

As far as GVC goes they suggest a coil of 1.8 ohm for the best flavour so I may try a build of this later and hope I get a better vape than my test at 0.7 - to end I would say for me it's an average juice, not horrible but certainly not something I'll be rushing back to again

Ok so since my thread yesterday I spent a day using GVC in one of my twos quintets I carry with me and have to admit it's growing on me slowly.

I don't think it would ever be my first choice but yes would agree its a nice vape, definitely worth trying

On Grants site he states a 1.8 ohm build with silica gave best results from memory - I vape between 0.8-1.0 with cotton so in your tests worth trying at least his recommendations. I would be interested to hear how that build works out if you do
