So you're saying, it's not the same as it once was, but may be like it like it used to be?

I'll have to order another bottle soon before it changes again. Last time I ordered it the dry, cigar like one, but the first order was very complex and hard to pin-point exactly what the flavor was, sometimes creamy, sometimes tropical spice, others even nutty. But still a very, very nice flavor.

from reading past reviews etc, sounds like PB was a very tasty vape, and somewhere near the end of 2012 a batch was made that was dry/flat and was being sold up to Oct of 2013 ( I had ordered some in July - Aug 2013. I thought it was decient, heavy cigar but not the flavors the previous reviews mentioned. I re-ordered PB in late Nov/early Dec 2013 and was very suprised by the flavor and complexity. I have recieved another 100ml this week and it is the same as the Nov. batch..
Soooo... Im thinking the "new" PB is like the pre Dec2012 stuff ... since I havent had a chance to taste the pre Dec2012 stuff I cant say for sure if it is the "same"... but te latest batch is pretty good :)

Aacck. Its 3 weeks steeped now. Vaped heavenly army and couldn't stand the taste; it was awful and smelled really weird. Would be more than happy to send the little buddy off to a new loving home if anyone wants it. Probably got a solid 25ml on it still :)

Edit: decided to reveal my hidden agenda. Given how raved about it is, I'm TRYING to convince myself I just got a bad batch. If someone could just vape it and verify, that would put my mind at ease

Inotfat, if you think you got a bad batch, you could send it back to HHV and have Adam check it for you. If it is, he will return a proper batch.

Howdy BK, Brett, and DaveOh! How's tricks?

BK, Getting back to the PBgate, my first bottle was from my first order of HHV juices back in Oct. 2012 and the second two bottles were Jan. 2013 and they were completely different in profile. The first was a delicious, complex enigma we were trying to figure out as it changed through ageing. Mine didn't last long enough for me to figure it out in the long steep end, so I bought another two bottle figuring I'd be getting ahead of the game a bit. Little did I know...

With that said, your descriptions kind of go along with the early reviews of Pirate's Booty and I'm thinking your reviews may change a bit too as it ages even more. Definitely worth another try in my book as soon as I get off this "vapelock" status in the fall.

    Chak I'll be curious too considering BK is doing the ultrasonic steeping as to age making an additional difference , the ultrasonic definitely produces a rapid change in a juice , it's got me looking at them now .

    if you're talking about the one on the sub forum, Slim, it's been closed (because of inactivity, I think). Here's the link to it.

    I don't know how I missed that one, otherwise I would have posted these up there:

    Yep that's the one :( RIP tattoo thread lol

    Heres a new one Im working on

    Slim, if I remember rightly, Blueberry Muffin does not take long to steep and I think it's similar to Cin City which is great right after the first two days caps off. It does get better with time, but not much.

    With that said though, I find HHV fruit flavors take a couple of weeks to really wake up and add flavor to the mix. Blueberry Muffin may follow that way.

    Thanks buddy! Im going to be giving it a try today? I just put the cap back on this morning :) it smells delicious!

    Cool tattoos, Slim! One is enough for me; it hasn't changed at all in over 30 years and it only cost me $46. How much are they going for now-days?

    As for Blueberry Muffin, I may have to try that one again. I only got the sample size and don't know how it is after a long steep. To me, the blueberry was good, but rather light. You're right though, the smell is awesome! That was before I started to order extra flavor and extract with all my HHV juices. (My buds are shot after 40+ years of stickies. But they seem to be getting better now.)

    Evening Army. Won't stay long but I'm beaming right now. Had a conversation with my boss. (no worries Dusty, I promise not to break any rules).
    I was offered an all expense paid weekend to Dallas to teach some folks about certain things. I'm floored. I so want to go.
    Can't believe it even happened.
    Now problem is what to do with her mom for a very long weekend. Guess we'll see just how much Booty I can kiss.
    Man I love my PB.

    Well here goes nothing she just walked in. Wish me luck.

    This may be answered already, but good luck with the Booty kissing, TnT!

    Thanks Chak! I pay around $150 an hour so it can get a little pricey. I miss the days before tattoos got so popular, you used to be able to get them fairly cheap. Most places have a $100 minimum now too

    I order all of my juice from HHV with extra flavor/extract too :)

    I don't care for HA by itself, but mixing in some tuscan cocoa makes it great IMO.

    Well Army, Mrs Tater and I made it off of the ship, and through customs with no hiccups! :) All 4 of our Reos performed flawlessly, and I went through almost 20mls of Dipity... It was excellent! We answered A LOT of questions, and I hope that we succeeded at converting a few smokers. In the meantime, our ride is stuck in traffic (Daytona 500) on their way here to Port Canaveral. My battery is almost dead on my phone, so I'll check back in after its charged up a bit. Later folks, have a great day!!!
