Ive never tried TV liquid but id suggest waiting a week and trying them again ive heard a lot of juices get better with age so that could be the case. To be honest theres nothing in juice to deteriorate i keep all my liquids in a drawer in my room. If its still sour try getting hold of some liquid sucralose and adding a drop or two to each bottle... also try juicycigs their flavours are gorgeous especially the cherry. Just steer clear of their RY4

I don't know if they're ruined, but take 'em out of the fridge.

As for your flavors, I don't know. Have you tried eating something sour first? Or perhaps just cleansing your palette with water? Give it another week? I've only ordered juice from TV. I haven't found them to be sour. But I guess that's a personal thing.

They say they don't sweeten a lot and sell sweetener for people who want more. The sweetener is Splendex (liquid sucralose) diluted to 10% with PG. (90% PG, 10% Splendex). if you could get some PG and some liquid Splenda/sucralose (sold for people who want to put one drop in coffee) you could mix up some sweetener. If you can't get PG you could probably just dilute it 3 to 1 with distilled water or edible pure grain alcohol and use less of that.

I've tried a few flavors from TV and didn't like them. I've also heard that they don't sweeten their juice as much as other vendors, like Dormouse stated.

I was actually surprised after all the rave reviews about Atomic Cinnacide that I didn't like it. I have tried a couple of other fireball-type flavors and liked them. TV's tasted weird to me, even after steeping.

The only one you bought that I have used is the Peach melba sweetened and it was not what I expected. I expected a sweet concoction of peach, raspberry and ice cream. But the brandy flavor in it does kill the sweetness since brandy is some kind of wine. I did like it though - it reminded me of an RY4.

I had the same problem with their Pina Colada. Yes, a real pina colada is made with liquor...but I didn't expect the e-liquid version to taste like liquor as well! lol, my fault I guess.

I've only ordered 2 juices fro TV, both highly rated - Butter Rum and Cafe Macchiato -- at first they had a horrible smell and taste and burnt my cartos. Went back a month later and they vape better than before but I'll never order from them again. I don't know if it's a quality control thing or what. You might try Ms. T.'s. I got 4 juices from her, they taste as advertised and were very good but she says hers are more VG than PG, hence not much throat hit. My go to favorite is Backwoods Brew but he doesn't carry the dessert flavors you seem to prefer. His are almost all 70PG/30PG which gives me the throat hit I love. Is very high quality stuff, complex but mellow, and some require a good steep. For my sweet tooth I get cappucino and vanilla bean (which needs steeped). He has some caramel stuff that I have not tried.

hm, i tried the Caramel Popcorn (absolute favorite of mine), Tasty Finger and Almond Horn and they all tasted exactly like the name and description..the Caramel Popcorn and Tasty Finger were from samplers which are pre-aged.. theyre great juice at great prices imo...they were all sweetened though.

Maybe the heat from travel messed it up...juice in heat will mess it up. try it again in a week or two maybe

I have tried tasty-finger and atomic cinnocide from TV. I didn't care for the tasty-finger because it had a weird taste to me but I love the atomic cinnocide! My favorite juices right now are from vaporbomb..... raspberry is my absolute favorite from vaporbomb but I also like blackberry, strawberry, and pineapple. I get them in 18mg/50-50. I like them because you get the flavor but they aren't too sweet....just right! :)

I have been using TV since they opened. Mint Choc Chip is, well was a staple in my tanks. The last 2 batches have been awful, they have a weird sour milk taste to them. Funny thing is a friend of mine that also uses the same juice said the same thing, even AC is not the same as it was when it came out.

I don't know if they have switched something up, changed vendors, quality control, whatever. But after the last 2 order failed I just don't think I will be ordering from them anymore.
