How are you guys steeping highbrow liquids? I must be doing something wrong. Its burning my atomizers and the liquid gets dark and smells burnt. Vanilla Bourbon bean and RY4 smell and taste like crap. Orange de sang re, black cherry dulcet and black cherry limoncello smell fine but they are too thin, not enough flavor like some others have mentioned. What gives? I use an Ego C ecig.

I really do love Highbrow's juices (they are one of my 3 go to vendors for juice). Caveat: I absolutely DESPISED their French Pipe tobacco. However, this is probably due to the fact that the taste of black licorice (which I tasted predominantly in the juice) makes me reconsider my life. I traded it to one of my friends and he loves it (just ordered 2 30 ml bottles of it). Flavors that I have tried and LOVE: espresso, vanilla bourbon bean, dark roast coffee, orange de sangre, malt (bizarre taste but I can't find anything to dislike about it), blackberry lemoncello, belgian waffle, and creme brule.

Here is my procedure. Shake bottle. Steep 2 days cap and dripper off the bottle. Replace cap and dripper, steep for one week. Take cap and dripper off again, steep 1-2 days. Vape and continue to steep the bottle with the cap on. Highbrow's juices are made to order, meaning the flavors really need time to combine and mellow. With a couple that I have received they taste bad right off the bat, but become really good after 1-2 weeks. I use boge lr cartomizers at 3.7 volts. YMMV.

Also, has anyone tried the tiramisu or malt yet? I may just try those two next.

Malt is bizarre. I have no idea how to explain what it tastes like. A lot of people say it tastes like sweet oatmeal, and I guess that's a pretty good description. It's definitely not an all day vape for me, but I do enjoy it from time to time.

Bryans ry4 is mine and my wifes allday vape. Orange de sangre tastes like a great orange. Dark choclate mint tastes like juniormints but more complex chocolate flavor. tabac de purique need me to steep more very floral. Hazelnut cream is very nutty And creamy very smooth. Lemoncillo tastes like lemon pure sweet refreshing. Im not a fan of uncle daves pomagranate is to lite for me if I order it again ill ask for more flavori.g. Both vanillas are great. I can vape all day long. Highbrow is great nothing bad to say Bryan will customize however you want. Im telling you the ry4 is the bomb. Call him up tell him what you like and how you like it more sweet less sweet or swweetner on the side he will do it unmatched customer service. Hes our vendor and we have the recipts to prove it lol.

Highbrow is the best juice I've tasted; I've tried a lot. Excellent customer service. Only ones didn't much care for was the exotic tobacco blends and apple. His peach, vanilla bourbon, hazel nut, carmel, Butter rum and Ry4 (with more sweetness) are excellent. I have 10 other juices of his in my closet waiting to try.
