My advice: Resist the temptation to overbuy and start with three tobaccos. Heavenly Army, Serendipity, Dragon's Fire.

If you like those three, you're bound to enjoy the rest of the NETs they have to offer. Heavenly Army and Shadow have similarities. Legend and Serendipity have similarities. Dragon's Fire and Pirate's Booty have similarities. I haven't tried Huntsman or Dark Horse so I won't blindly recommend them, but they have fans. Sludge is in a class of its own (pronounced "acquired taste") so get a small bottle of that. I have Heavenly tobacco (a non-NET) and it is a good RY4/555 rendition and very different from the others.

well i see you point here i droped down to three 15ml bottles to try....but here was my pick,heavenly army...dragon fire and legend

:thumbs: Good start. The HHV NETs do change with a steep, so caps and drippers off for a couple of days and shake often. You don't have to wait weeks to enjoy them but they do take on different characteristics after a month or two. If you don't care for one, give it a long sleep and come back.

I have a feeling you are going to kick yourself for not going ahead and ordering the other two.

Perhaps, but everyone has their own preferences. It's worse buying five bottles of juice and finding you don't care for any of them. Everyone raves about Boba's. I bought 30ml last week, vaped some in the HH.357 and sold it immediately. I did the same with AiV.

What to pick? If you want them sometime soon I'd recommend "picking" in store pickup.

I'll get flamed for this I'm sure but I've ordered twice from HHV and tried 8 of their flavors and both times ot was at least week before my order was even mixed. In my opinion (personal of course YMMV) everything I tried from the purity line (apple, peach, watermelon) was "thin" tasting and the other flavors (coffee, muffin, chocolate) were fake tasting and kinda gross.

I won't be ordering from them again so my advice to anyone would be to stick with the small samples first until you find out what you like, especially since these aren't the cheapest juices and most certainly not the fastest service either.

I'm sure the flaming is about to start but I am only giving you my experience.

I doubt it. Most people know juices taste different to different people, and your opinion's as good as anyone else's. I don't think I've tried one of their juices yet that I would have called "gross," except maybe one I really didn't like (which I'll keep to myself since it hasn't shown up in this particular thread), and I absolutely love Tuscan Cocoa because, to me, it doesn't have any of that fake chocolate syrup taste most other chocolate vapes do, but I also know you could very well taste them in a very different way than I do.

So, though I disagree with you for the most part, I definitely wouldn't flame you if those just weren't your thing.

Why would you think anyone would flame you? Taste is subjective. Their juice may not taste good to you for many reasons. Could be your sense of taste for the stage of vaping you are at. Could also just be you don't care for the flavors your ordered. The reason you had to wait is because they do their own extractions and hand mix every order. They have been inundated with orders because their juice is so popular. They doubled their staff a few months ago and are now training additional staff and enlarging their facility in March. So, hopefully they will be able to fulfill orders a little quicker in the near future.

Well, the 1 flavor I would stay away from is Bleeding Heart. It tastes ok, but the perfume effect on the exhale is annoying, and I've tried every method I know of to give this juice a chance. If you've ever had Fuzion's Chuck Norris Blood, that is a much better take on a creamy strawberry. So far, this is the only miss that I've had out of a half dozen flavors from HHV. I ended up finishing it since there was a time I was low on juices, but the other juices I suggested earlier in this thread have been clear winners.

No one will flaming you for not liking them. While I haven't tried their fruity ones yet, it seems that they exel on their tobacco NET series, the ones I have are totally awesome.
As for taking a week before you order is mixed, that's how it is with them being really popular, it's even worse with another extremely popular juice vendor now, but both are taking steps to speed up their processing times.

Well, keep me posted if things improve....I might give them another chance and try something else one day... But in my opinion the taste of their juices vs the hype just didn't equate.

Probably why I like home cooking but can't stand "gourmet" fare.

It was pretty disappointing to wait and wait and wait and be scratching my head as to why I just couldn't get into any of the flavors I ordered.

If they speed up the process, improve the taste and maybe knock a few bucks off the prices I'll give them money. I'm sure I'm not the only one that wasn't impressed...

There's no vendor out there that everyone will like. As far as them "knocking a few bucks off their prices", they're already one of the cheaper vendors out there, so that's not going to happen.

One maker can't please everyone.
I've recently tried 9 AIV juices and won't buy any of them again. Longer wait times than HHV and a good bit more expensive.
That doesn't mean AIV aren't good, but just not for me. YMMV

In all fairness, I just went back and revisited the HHV bottles I have in my vape box. I will say that one flavor agrees with my tastebuds now whereas it didn't before. The "just peachy" is actually pretty decent but it's been steeping almost a month so that might be a big factor. None of the other flavors seem to have changed and taste the same as when I made my initial assessment..... If I had to order from them again I'd probably get the peach....
