I see hints of great things to come, but not quite yet for me. It definitely needs some aging as Clark has suggested. Full review in a couple of weeks to be fair to the Strawnilla.

Same for me. I stuffed my bottles in my stash and Foxy goes, "Not even a taste??? It's goooooood...." I'll wait. :lol:

Curious why the Cyclone is giving you such a hart time, I can re-coil mine real quick, esp if it's a single coil.

First build. One of the posts is incredibly close to the edge, which makes positionning the coil pretty difficult at first, and my coils were a bit too long, so I had to use a different gauge.

And it shorted two times for unknown reasons (without the cap on).

But I got it :)

Well the devil made me do it. Checked the mail, purple package sitting around with nothing to do so I had to introduce it to my Patriot.

Steep time: The amount of time it took to get from Clarks shop to my mailbox

Nic Level: 6mg

tank/Atomizer: Patriot with 28 ga 1/16 mandrel at .8 ohms

Mod: K100

Thoughts/Tasting Notes: Well the wife describes it as absolutely incredible, extremely tasty (those are her words). For me, I get the Frenilla with a nice hint of Strawberry and the vapor is outstanding. Going to put it away after I build a tank for the wife.

This stuff is just superior to any of strawberry out there. Suicide Bunny's Mothers Milk is good but this stuff blows it out of the water. I love Frenilla it's delicious. But this stuff is even better. If I had to pick between the two I'd pick Strawnilla every time.

Those are strong words right there a bit bold to say blow out of the water don't ya think? Boy I hope your right but those are strong words lmao. I mean if it's true I might have to just drink my 500ml

I don't think it's a bold statement at all. Strawnilla doesn't taste artificial and over-sweetened like MM. Taste is subjective though. MM is so hyped its hard not to try it once. I did and don't see the hype. Maybe it's the edgy bottles lol

I am not so sure about that. I love strawberrys! MM is the standard by which I gage a strawberry vape as most I have tried quite frankly pretty much suck. For me, and from my limited time with Strawnilla, me thinks MM is going to have to move over. I am at the point ( while taking notes) that I am building coils to be juice specific. More later.....

I tend to agree to a point. I found that MM would taste fantastic one day and not so fantastic the next until I figured out that it just doesn't taste as good depending on builds or attys. I find it to be a finicky type of juice until you hit it right.

Rocking Strawnilla in the Turtle Ship/ Stillare built with 24g duals at 0.6 ohms as I type. Its fantastic but, I am thinking of knocking it back to around 0.8. Ongoing.......

The trick here is to leave your coils legs just a little longer so that it allows you to "push" your coil over a wee bit and get it more center. This is one of the things I love about using these.....

Steep time: FOB

Nic Level: 6mg

Tank/Atomizer: Veritas running vertical duels at 0.45

Mod: LE Copper Red Stingray

Thoughts/Tasting Notes: OMG OMG OMG this stuff is the BOMB! Didn't even make it through one ml before I placed another order. Light (but definitely there) strawberry flavor with a creamy vanilla exhale. I can only imagine this after a small steep. Kent you guys killed it on this one and I am going to be very sad when it runs out :(

Why is light (but definitely there) a good thing? I want heavy strawberry :(

Ok, further investigation (lined up all my well steeped NT for this) shows...

tobh Atty, .6, at a conservative 9 watts, shiseido cotton wicked lightly for airflow and flavor

Vape Strawnilla til it is down to nearly dry cotton...add a dab of:

Frenilla (from last SR) AMAZING! how does the more powerful vanilla just uplift the young strawberry like that?

another dab of Strawnilla, then added:
CLS (from a couple months ago) Shazam! Creaminess! Now both the vanilla and strawberry are amplified, and they are CUSTARD too!

going again with a sparing bit of Strawnilla, then added:
GCD (about a month's steep on this) Hmm oh yeah wow! Strawberry cream danish! Hot cinnamon strawberry vanilla crumble!

*beginning to reel, cause vaping down 18mg is powerful, cause shorting out my pleasure receptors*

I can take it...this one is for the team!

dab of Strawnilla:
dab of CB (month's steepage)
I've begun to sprout wings, I can feel the crackle of the CB crust, taste the fresh strawberries creamy vanilla bursting through in every bite.

Analysis: While still young, Strawnilla flourishes in combination with all of these, and doubtless more. Steeped NT seems to bring out the flavors inherent in the youthful juice, strengthening them a maturity they will doubtless reach on their own....

...if only I can resist them long enough to steep!
