I haven't tried my GJ yet but the Boba's is spot on guys. They looked the way they used too when I took them out of the package. I almost feel like this was an early xmas present lol. I did get them with the sale, but only ordered a 30ml bottle each. Regretting that now....oh well.

Just glad to have the juice back to where it's a 9.5... Good stuff!

Well since my original post I have vaped other things that I have grown to love but as for opening these bottles today they smell of nail polish. Steeping for 4 months hmmm
I always remember this stuff smelling good enough to drink I'm gonna give a try again but I am sure it was bad. Ben chime in..
I'm gonna place a small order on recent posts of goodness returning
Too bad I still have 100 ml of the nail polish. This wouldn't have lasted 2 months if it was good

I guess I will just take the tops of the Half 100 ml's of gj and bb and let me air out completely. I will probably have no nic after that but at least I can finish it. I hope

Those bottles of liquid do not require the whole "cap off" phenomenon (most liquids don't, to be honest). That was all for liquids that contained alcohol where you would let that evaporate off. Also, considering those bottles are LDPE (soft plastic), they are airing out all on their own (LDPE is nothing near air tight). Also know that nic loss is over a long period of time with the caps off and under extreme light conditions. If you just left your bottles alone, with maybe taking the cap off for a minute or two, and let it age naturally, you'd be fine. Either which way, age is what you're looking for if it is in fact needed at all.

I am happy to report that so far all of my orders in 2014 have been good. Funny thing is I find myself occasionally craving the old raisiny stuff. Am I just messed up in the head?

Yeah, I forgot about this thread when I got some Gorilla Juice in that was perfect!

I received my first bottle about 2 weeks ago, being a newbie I am very sensitive to fake or poor quality e-juice. I rank this very high of the dozens I've been trying. I am surprised its not listed in the Natural Tobacco's part deux thread, my taste buds tell me there is a natural tobacco to Bubbas Bounty?

Yeah, mine too and I am all up in that thread! Plus, have you wondered why there is not a zero nic Boba's Bounty (or AVE's tobaccos in general), but you can get the rest of their regular flavored liquids with zero nic? Natural Tobacco liquids will come with a little bit of nicotine from the extract and never can be truly zeroed out (I think my theory is pretty sound here). But, Porphy's lips are sealed about whether it's a Natural Tobacco (or at least he never responded to my inquiry), though I would like to believe this is not an "ingredient" that should be kept secret as many vapers do NOT want to vape a liquid that has tobacco as a flavoring. The maker can do what he wants though as of now.

Well I'm dyin' here. Just sent back a thirty mil bottle I got last month (no real boba's flavor). Then today I got a 100ml bottle and same thing. This is the third time in three years but all three this year. Very sad. I would get that stuff out the mailbox and vape it til it was gone. Same atties, same resistance, same mod, same voltage, same buds.

I hate to come back to this thread after I said everything was okay (even though I was talking about with a bottle of GJ), but last my BB just doesn't taste right. I got a 100 mL (split between me and a friend) and as much as I try to find that old flavor, it tastes not too bueno. It's barely even sweet and has this almost rubbery thing going on. It's my last bottle of a one-time great. Last time. Goodbye, Boba's Bounty.

I'm having this problem again after going through this a month ago. I found one bottle of Boba's that was good but the other two I have are watery and off. Same with the GJ. I had bought those about 2 months ago. I just reordered 2 bottles of Boba's hoping I get the old Boba's back.

Good luck. I can't waste my money anymore.

p.s. 1977 rocks!

My bottle of Bobas lacks the flavor of my previous bottles too. I've never had issues finishing a bottle of it, now I hardly even bring myself to finish a tank. I've been pouring it down the drain. I have one more full 30ml bottle and if it's the same I'm done. It's frustrating to say the least. I keep a lot of juices in my rotation but Bobas was the one that I went to more often. This was the first vendor I started with.... too bad the love affair was so short lived. Reminds me of my first wife.
