Not open for further replies.
hi folks...im a real newbie (yeah i say that differently cos im from oz heehe) and have recently started vaping with a janty ego vv using a dura dc atty (i think thats the lingo).
i find that janty stuff is good compared to the cheap crappy plastic thing i got on ebay but they are not that fwd with instructions etc....
anyway i am looking to get some new juices with a high nic content and found a place called HIGHBROW...looks interesting and they let you know how much bang (or nic) you get for your buck...
any opinions?
remember im in Australia and we need to import nicotine kinda surreptitiously so i wanna make sure i get quality product that wont alarm customs...
thanking all in advance ;)

I have tried five flavors from Highbrow. Their Orange de Sangre is unbelievable, and I'm really fond of their limoncello as well. Those were my two faves, but all five flavors I got were really some of the best juice I've tried.



That's good to hear. I just ordered about 5 small bottles to try. The two you mentioned were on the list :D

Hi DT.. :)

I have tried several flavors from HBV.
The Vanilla Burbon - Excellent.
RY4 - Excellent
Cappucino Diablo - Excellent
Highbrow Malt - Hmmm. Unusual.. a little like malt / or oatmeal , something.. I been mixing it a little .. Its good, maybe not straight up tho.

All there products are super quality and they will super customize your juice .. for free.

Good Luck.

Peace,

Vin

I've ordered once a week, for the last three weeks from Highbrow. It's one of my favorites. We love:

Apricot - tastes like real apricots, not candy
Blueberry - tastes like blueberry compote
Orange De Sangre - tastes like real, fresh picked oranges
Peach Thymbra - tastes like real peaches, not candy
Pure Pear - tastes like fresh juicy pears
Watermelon - tastes like a cross between the fruit and candy
Cappuccino Diablo - delicious cappuccino with a dash of spice (I order mine with a splash of cream and sugar)

Steeping right now are Vanilla Bourbon Bean and Vanilla Bean Decadence (they smell pretty good, but aren't ready just yet to try).

The only one I didn't care for is:
Chai Tea - tasted too much of cloves

Shipping is fast and the packaging is beautiful. Remember to check the coupon section. I think there's a 15% off coupon right now.

Here's our experience:
Apricot - usually is great right away. Sometimes needs a day or two of steeping
Blueberry - tastes better if you let it steep (gets a fuller flavor), but is good right away
Orange De Sangre - needed to steep for a week. Smelled perfect the first day, but didn't taste right
Peach Thymbra - It's been perfect every time the day it arrived (and we've ordered close to 10 bottles for us and friends)
Pure Pear - generally needs 2-3 days to steep
Watermelon - great immediately, but even better with steeping a few days
Cappuccino Diablo - needs to steep 3-7 days (we always customize it, so that might increase our steep time)
Vanilla Bourbon Bean - at least a week of steeping, maybe more
Vanilla Bean Decadence - at least a week of steeping, maybe more
Chai Tea - didn't like the taste immediately or after steeping for a week. Might taste better with a longer steep time.

High brow is fantastic nothing compares ive tried all the flavors listed here except coffee and cheesecake. The best juices ive vaped are from high brow. You have to try the ry4 its mine and my wifes daily vape but its a flavor that grows on you its fantastic. Only flavor I didnt like was uncledaves pomogranet needed mor flavor imo. both vanillas are allday vapes also but I lean more twords the burbon vanilla vrs decadence. Orange de sangre tastes just like an orange even with rind its great. Amaretto is great dark choclate mint tastes like junior mints its great. Lemmoncilo tastes like sweet lemon very refreshing. I liked chi tea tastes like a sweetned chi tea. Maccroon was great. But our favorite is still ry4
 
I love hearing these opinions...can't wait until mine show up. Should they be steeped, or are they good straight from the bottle?

oh god steeping???? I assume this is a period of maturing, possibly like leaving a sangiovese wine to mature or a cold glass of wine to reach a warmer temp for the flavours to settle and evolve...am i right?
i have sofa king much to learn haha...i love it though...all this information is bombarding me but its good....all i need is a juice that can arrange all my thoughts and ideas alphabetically and i will be set!
thank you all so much for taking an interest in this lad from Oz who is trying to get into the vaping thing....6 days of no smokes too! ;)

Awesome company with great customer service & customization. Stand out fruit flavors that taste like the actual fruits! Pear, watermelon, blueberry, limoncello, & orange de sangre are excellent. Haven't tried peach or apricot - they're on my list next!
RG...thanks a bunch..i have a beginners type pack on the way and a fruity flava flav is coming along, as are a few bourbons and vanillas and if i remember keerecktly a ry4....
i'm already researching a few ideas myself for diy mixes...and name them after my fave cramps songs!
but baby steps first...thank you for your opinion...looks like im on a winner with highbrow
