I got my bottle of ECOpure rich tobacco 24mg a few days ago.I get zero throat hit and it tastes kind of minty/menthol when I vape it , definatly not what I was expecting or wanted. I will try mixing it with some other juices so it won`t go to waste.It does make nice thick vapor tho
Mine also has the stuff floating in it so I guess that is normal. I don`t think I will be ordering this liquid again.

I got a bottle of the ECOpure Rich Tobacco High recently (thanks to John from Intellicig for the bonus). I normally just vape the ECOpure Fresh asI am a little concerned about vaporizing all the different food additives used to create flavors. But as I had 20ml of the Rich Tobacco free of charge I decided to take it for a spin. I did not get any mint nor menthol. I also did not get any floaters. And also found it to give quite a nice throt hit. Vapor also was very good. I am probably a bit biased as ECOpure in general is my favorite juice but it sounds to me as if you got a bunk bottle Waffler. I would contact John and get a replacement bottle. I mean I am not going to tell you what it should taste like, I'll leave that to those with more educated palates but it should not be mint or taste like menthol, and there should be NO floaters. Get a new bottle and try it out I think it is a fine juice.

Exactly the same here, but I`ve ordered the Medium strenght which should be 12mg srength as they say. Now as I read your post I feel better because I thought that the lack of throat hit from that liquid was because I did not get enough nicotine strenght. I`m still gonna mix it with some other liquids. It`s all good

+2 Received my bottle of medium as well and was very dissapointed with it. Very much like you describe and nothing like tobacco flavor at all. Definately a mint/soapy taste. Haven't looked in the bottle for floaters yet. (left the bottle at work and will look tomorrow)
 
Hi Scott, I'm a newbie.
I bought the Tobacco & Rich tobacco flavours,18mg.
Tried the Tobacco first and it ticked all the boxes for me,very distinct sweetish caramel flavour with a hint of menthol and good amount of vapour. However,when I tried the Rich tobacco flavour (cleaned vapouriser first) this was almost flavourless compared to the Tobacco flavour and had a very strong menthol taste. Have the labels been mixed up?
I bought them from Intellicig and have e-mailed Suzzanne who replied that a few people had contacted them saying the Rich tobacco was not what they expected and that Mangement were investigating. I also told Suzanne the batch no that is on the bottle.

BTW thank you very much for your reviews they have been very helpful.

I bought a bottle of the 24mg Rich Tobacco and it tasted of menthol and i really can't stand menthol, got in touch with Intellicig and they sent me another bottle but it was exactly the same, i won't be buying anymore, if you look at the ingredients it does contain Menthol maybe they got the mix wrong, i had a similar experience with best ecig with 15 bottles of Flue cured that had a menthol taste to it, they replaced it and it was fine, i think its just a case of poor QC.

i wonder why some of you guys are getting a menthol/soap taste!?

mine tastes nothing like that at all.......very much like caramel if anything!

did you all get it from the UK intellicg site?

cheers,

scott

Yep, got it from intellicig UK. I tried to vape it again today to see if I would get used to it. While it seems to last forever it just tastes nothing like tobacco. I also have the Tobacco flavor, but have not yet tried it, just smelled it and it smells like mouthwash. Very dissapointed. I really wanted to use it being made outside China. If it is mislabled I guess I should contact Intellicig, but I've read many reports of it being described similar to what I have.. Oh well.

Hi Keith it's John here. David has been incredibly busy and has not had the time to even login to the forum.
I have kept an eye on it when I can and appreciate your concerns. Despite the first batch samples being excellent, when the first production batch was launched there was
some inconsistency which could not have been predicted. We have found the solution and have also adjusted the flavours so that the Rich and Mild
are a nice tobacco flavour without the menthol overtones. We have also introduced an extra flavour, Regular, which is as near to the standard cart flavour as is possible
and which has quite a kick to it. The Fresh was okay and is ideal for diy flavouring and the Menthol has had the flavour strengthened. We have been testing random samples from our new batches
and all seems to be well. Producing liquid from scratch is an extremely painstaking operation and has taken us 6 months of research and development as the chemistry involved is complex.
It sounds easy on the DIY pages but the recipes there all use a ready made base with nicotine; creating that base is the hard part and maybe explains why there are so few manufacturers outside of China. We were determined to achieve our goal and are proud to be leading the way again in this field; we are pioneers and have to overcome all the obstacles and problems that we encounter, but we are commited to continue investing in the business to make it better for everyone. We are never afraid to venture into the unknown in order to make progress even though it is not always easy. We still have major plans and projects on the go and intend being around for a long time as a manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer.
For anyone who has bought ECOpure Rich, Tobacco or Menthol and have found it not to their liking, we will be offering a replacement free of charge as soon as our new batches have been released.
All they need to do is send an email to john@intellicig.com stating their order number and they will receive their replacement.
I used to post on the forum under the name of Shining Wit but haven't re-registered since we became paid up members; I shall do so and hopefully I will be able to answer some of the questions that come up. We have all been so busy developing the business as quickly as possible to cater for the volume of orders coming in and we now have main suppliers with websites in France, Greece, Poland, Denmark, Romania, Bulgaria, Namibia, Malaysia, Malta and the UK with more interest each day. We have taken on and trained new staff and are still recruiting more this week. Maybe one day I will be able to retire and spend my days lazing on my rowing boat on the canal!;-)
If you wish to post my reply on the forum that is fine. I will get there as soon as possible but it might be a few days as David is away this week.

Best wishes.

My original two bottles of Ecopure had seemed to be half full and I made a grumble about it on another thread...which John must have read and he contacted me and sent me two replacement bottles as a gesture of good will and has promised to ensure that the bottles have the correct 20ml of juice......I thank you John for that. I sure hadn't expected it.

I do like the Ecopure ....I tried both the Fresh and Rich tobacco.....although it's pointless for me to make any comments about flavours because I have found that for some reason it doesn't matter what juice I try I can only taste the flavour for a little while and then I get no more sensation of the flavour and they all taste the same! All I can say is that originally the rich tobacco had tasted identical to the evo carts and I love that flavour.

I presume we have no idea when the new batches will be released?

I ask from a different point of view: I absolutely loved my bottle of 'Rich Tobacco' (including the slight menthol overtone) and was considering placing a large order for some, but now I don't want to do so in case I don't like the new and 'improved' version. I will need to try the new stuff in a single bottle to see if I like that before I go ahead with a larger order :(

Thanks to the awesome customer service at Intellicig, I received the replacement bottles of my reg tobacco medium and rich tobbaco medium and I am very happy with them both. No more soapy/minty mouthwash smell or taste.

I've been vaping the rich tobacco exclusively for the last few days and feel it's the closest thing to a real mbl light I've tried. (although it's been almost 6 months since i've smoked an analog. :D)

Neither of the flavors is very stong or pronounced but are very clean and light, and the vapor is awesome.

I've also noticed that the ECOPure seems to wick through the carts better making them last forever before having to top off. With all the other liquids I use, I need to top off frequently to get a nice hit and avoid the burnt tase but with this stuff I go at least half a day or more without topping off. (which is awesome because there are fewer instances of people waking in my office while I've got a syringe in my had..LOL)

I will be ordering more.

Received an order from intellicig today. Got myself some Very High 25mg/ml: Regular, Rich Tobacco, Regular and Fresh. So far I can say I am very, very impressed with the new liquid. Monster throat hit from the regular and rich tobacco. Fresh is solid as well. My buddy who I ordered the menthol for is extremely pleased, described the flavor as very nice w/o being overwhelming.

I am terrible at describing flavor, but in terms of throat hit and vapor production 10/10. I don't think you can go wrong.

I am supposed to be getting another shipment with high, medium and low strengths. Although I suspect a diminished throat hit with less nicotine I am hoping they deliver.

My only previous complaint with the liquid was the throat hit, so I am very pleased. Hope that is helpful to someone. Cheers. :D
