I just got a sampler pack, well two sampler packs, from HHV totaling 8 3 mL bottles, and of course it included Gandalf having heard so much raving about it. I really like it straight out of the bottle, can't wait to see what it is like after steeping a couple of weeks. Of course this 3 mL bottle won't be lasting me that long, so will have to steep it after I order a larger vial! Thumbs up though, straight away even!

A lot of people like it at two weeks , but for me, at 3 weeks the flavor profile is just straight up complete for me...its different for everyone so you'll have to just test it out at different intervals...fyi, gandalf is my 3rd favorite juice right behind dragonsfire and gorilla juice.

Looking forward to trying GJ and Dragsonsfire as well then...someday soon I hope

My device goes to 11 :p

Ha! We need a Stonehenge e juice!
I vaped thorough all of my gandalf (18 70/30) this week after a week of steeping. Absolutely loved it. I switch between juices a lot, so the initial vapes are strong, but then I find I chain vape it due to all of the different flavors coming through. Especially love the chocolate(?) exhale. I just ordered larger bottles of gandalf, shadowfax and gollum.

10 days steeping and it's not ready? Do you shake it every day, take the cap off and sniff it and test drip it each day? just curious :p When I received my 30 ml bottle (it shipped to me on Oct. 25, 2012) I immediately filled a vision stardust 1.6 ml STD clearomizer and took a few drags. I thought it was OK but not great. Most 100% VG juices need a lot of steeping time for my tastes so I was actually surprised that it was pretty good LOL. I also immediately transferred some from the 30 ml bottle to a 10 ml bottle to set aside and let it alone (and then I actually forgot about that 10 ml bottle till just now :facepalm:) Each day after that first day, Gandy gets better every day. I think it stopped "getting better" at about 3 weeks. (Meanwhile I was testing the other 9 juices that I ordered from HHV at that time.) Same steeping magic was true with the others. In the words of a friend here on ECF, "Vape it till you like it." So I did :D jk He also said to test it each day to be able to taste how different it is as it evolves. That was good advice. :) Now, between Gandy, Darkhorse, Dragon's Fire, Pirate's Booty and Huntsman, they all tie for first place LOL. (I still need to try Shadowfax and Serendipity among others though.)
